I would've posted a photo of us up on stage with our trophies, but this is the only photo I have with the complete team. :(
What can I say? When you're really enjoying what you're doing, it shows, and it was a good thing the judges noticed that. Ben Tang (one of the judges who flew all the way from Singapore) actually did one of the tracks with us when we did our V-formation! Yung mga pagod biglang nabuhayan ng loob! Todo project to the highest level! We were actually supposed to cut the V-formation from our routine because of the lack of space, pero pasaway team namin eh. :p And I'd like to think that it was our pasaway-ness (and the obvious chemistry between our group) that won us the trophy. Hahaha. And after the track, Ben commented how our formation was really nice. Awwww. I heart you Ben. See you next year, if you're judging again. At kung Team Ortigas pa rin ako.
Man I love my team. I miss them already.
Ryan, you are such an awesome designer. I love our costumes. I still think that we have the best costumes out of all the other teams. Walang bias yan. Thanks din for being our cheerleader.
Congratulations to my team, Team OrTIGAS ("Team Tigaaaaaaas!!")! And to our super galing special awardees Paolo (Best Male, 2nd Runner Up), Freeze (Best Male), and Erin (Best Female), you totally deserve it! I'm so proud of you guys! Pasakay sa motor niyo. :p
And to Mindy, the best Team Leader everrrrrr. Salamat sa pag-tiyaga mo sa min, and for believing in us! We're gonna miss you! Ingat sa Dubai.
"We are an exceptionally awesome team and we will win! Spirit...has fifty times the strength and staying power of brawn and muscle. Fight! ;-p - see you guys tonight at 830pm!" - text ni Mindy sa buong team 2 weeks before the event. Talagang sinave ko yan. Hehehe.
//edit: Wheee someone blogged about our team! Hehehe. Natuwa lang ako. Click

//edit ulit: The quote above pala came from Oudine (one of my teammates). She needed to inspire Mindy and Ryan because they were getting tired na. Thanks so much to you Oudine, na-inspire talaga ako dun when Mindy forwarded it to us. :) You should be a motivational speaker hahahaha!
