THE DAY I LOST MY MANOLOS!

Hi guys, its been a very busy week for me! Been running here and there due to so many meetings I need to attend. Anyhow, have lots of new entries for the blog, so here's the first one.

Last Monday, I hosted the Press and Beneficiaries Party of MMQ Theatre and Events Group. The event was held at the luxurious home of Michelle Washington. The press party was very intimate with free flowing wine and pica pica all night. Our friends from the media, generous sponsors and friends of MMQ witnessed the formal signing of the Memorandum of Agreement between MMQ and its chosen charities for the Le Cabaret 5. Just to give you a short background, Le Cabaret (which I have been talking about over my past post as my current project) is a fund raising show.This year we choose Hospicio De San Jose, EVA Foundation and Chosen Children Village. So, after all performers, suppliers and the like are paid, all the profit of the show will go to our chosen charities. 

But the highlight of the event was when guests started to talk about a drank guy who allegedly took another person's shoes. This scenario reminded me of the episode in Sex and the City where Sarah Jessica Parker's Manolo's got lost in a party she attended. Anyhow, I went to the lawn to check on what is happening. I started to ask Jasmin and Lucci about what happened and they told me exactly the same thing, that the drunk guy might have taken another person's shoes. I started to check all the shoes and eventually I started to look for mine. But lo and behold I couldn't find my shoes! I went through all the shoes again just to double check but unfortunately my black shoes weren't there. I ended up being teased by Michelle and some of my friends and on my way home, I have to use the drank guy's shoes so I don't go home barefooted. 

I became quite upset on what happened. It is not really the brand of the shoes that bothers me but its sentimental value. Those shoes were my graduation shoes. I remember buying it in a vintage shop. The shoes were made in Italy and wearing them to events or job interviews is just like wearing my sneakers.

As of this moment, MMQ is still in touch with this multimillionaire guy who accidentally wore my shoes on his way home. I just find it bizarre how the host of the party loses his own shoes in his own event.
