The second Friday of December last 2012 was a full and fun day for my
family though we did not really plan it all. The only thing planned was
the Hi-5 concert that my daughter and my sister would watch at SM MOA
Centerstage. I have to buy tickets for this show as my daughter is so into
Hi-5! She would watch the daily shows in Disney Channel and vigorously sing and
dance along to their songs. The reason for this fascination became clear to me after
watching HI-5 for some time. I too was mesmerized with the talented members of
this Australian group.
They are such a joy to watch and it is really a great show for kids and the young at heart. So when I learned that they are going toManila for a concert, I
know buying a ticket would be worth it. I intend to buy tickets for the Saturday show but I waited for the last minute before buying and was surprised to see that
the tickets were almost sold out. It is a blessing that I was still able to get
two VIP tickets.

Anyway, the plan was for my husband and I to go home early from work so
we could accompany my sister and daughter to the venue. At the last minute, my
husband learned he cannot do so because of an important event in their office.
So I alone had to go home early and my husband would just go to MOA after his
work. My daughter still has a kumon class before the show so I went home at
around 1pm. Instead of my husband, my mother and I accompanied Sophie and sis
to the venue. Riding a taxi is such a hassle with the traffic so we opted for
the bus. Traffic was bad but thank god we left home early.
When we arrived at MOA, the first thing we did was look for the exact
venue which is the MOA centerstage which I learned is actually part of the SM
cinema. Then we looked for a place to have dinner to. We choose Ja Tu Jak – a
Thai resto and it was a good choice because food is delicious, service is
excellent and is affordable.
After dinner, we headed to the venue where a long queue has already
formed. Once my sis and Sophie are inside, my mom and I waited for hubby at one
of the benches. We chatted until my husband arrives. He said he wants us to
have a massage so we went to one of the massage centers inside the mall. I am
unimpressed when I see their list of services, so only my husband went to avail
their service
My mother and I decided to eat halo- halo in Razons. We finished our
dessert just in time when the Hi-5 show and the 1 hour massage for husband is
over. My daughter seems to be bitin with the Hi-5 show but my sister said it
was worth it.
We also dropped by at the the bay area to buy dinner for my
husband. It was a tiring but a happy and memorable day for my family.
