Finally, after a day of rest, I am now posting pictures that I got at the ToyCon 2016 + Pop Life Fanxperience last June 10 to 12, 2016 at the SMX Convention Center — Manila in Pasay City. As always, I will let the images speak for the event itself. Activities and Exhibits The 2-hectare venue was filled with activities and exhibits that are worth the ticket. ...
In celebration of the 20th year anniversary of the Filipinas Heritage Library, an exhibit called “The Secret Lives of Books” by artist and designer Karl Castro. This exhibit is free admission, so I took my time to get inside and take mementos, in which I got the permission of the security personnel beforehand. Inside the exhibit, there are stories of Karl’s involvement in the works of notable writers Ricky Lee and Antoinette Jadaone, as well as his design works published in the Philippine Collegian of the University of the Philippines. ...
Looks like I am really on a roll today. I’m going to show you the mementos that I took on the second day of O-Kun Fiesta 2 at the Function Hall 3 of SMX Manila yesterday, June 5. The Otaku Asia Magazine, from which this event is based from, is three years old (their partner Arkadymac is a bit older though, nudge nudge). They got a lot of guests, including the cosplay group Tonari no Tsuns and Little Things’ Ivyree Rosario. I’m going to set aside the fine print and go straight ahead with the photos. ...
Wow, this post was waiting for so long to be posted. Anyway, here’s what I did (and took) during the recent AniZone activity at Robinsons Galleria in Ortigas Center. We stayed the whole time at Bo’s Coffee for the said activity, and I was able to try their hot Matcha Latte, which costs ₱150. Here’s my short impressions on it: View this post on Instagram A post shared by Jay Agonoy (@jayagonoycom) ...

Hello, guys. I was supposed to pull this post up last week if not for me overworking myself, so before I go back to bed, here’s a quick recap of all the food and drinks that I’ve had from last week’s “Blogapalooza: Horizons” in Quezon City. Arla / Cocio Arla and Cocio are distributed by the same company in the country, Fly Ace Corporation, from Denmark. Prior to drinking Cocio, one of my friends recommended it, and his recommendation is not a joke at all. At a price range of Php60 to Php70, I guess this one’s worth its taste and price. ...
I’ve decided to report this article from the Ex-Link Events Blog in full to serve everyone’s interests. If you want to know more of what I blog about inside work, check the blog out. Thanks! In just two weeks, we’ll witness the biggest pop culture event in the country, ToyCon 2016. Let’s take a peek at what will happen inside ToyCon 2016. The Biggest ToyCon Yet For years, the ToyCon has been held at the SM Megatrade Halls, but this year, its organizer, the Asian Comics, Toys and Hobbies Collective, Inc. (ACTHCI) has decided to conquer all halls in the ground level of SMX Manila in Pasay, making it the biggest ToyCon yet. ...
It’s been a long time (not really, it’s been two years) since I got into Blogapalooza— the first one I had is at SMX Aura in Taguig — and while the event’s got a bit smaller, it had great content compared to my previous visit in 2014. This year’s event is held at the Elements event venue inside Eton Centris along Quezon Avenue and EDSA in Quezon City. Elements has two function rooms, and a fashion show is being held next door. ...
I’m back in Antipolo once again, but this time, I went to NyanCon 2016 (dubbed as “The NyanContinues”) at Robinsons Place Antipolo just earlier. Here are few of the shots that I got en route and on location: LRT Line 2 Extension It’s good to know that the Light Rail transit’s Line 2 Extension is on full-swing, and they’re building it starting from the Masinag area. The sky ...
Hi, everyone. I am currently relaxing at home, trying to make do with what I have at the moment. But earlier in the morning, I received the confirmation of our faithful that we will vote for Davao City Mayor Rodrigo Duterte. I am wary of mentioning this guy as (1) this is the internet, (2) all of us are jerks, and most of us jerks are going to shove our beliefs to others (with the latter either swallowing it like a bitter pill or expelling it in a way similar to those who shove it). ...
