Make Your Own Havaianas 2008 – The Aftermath

2466417072 b511e4a68a Make Your Own Havaianas 2008 The Aftermath Today is the last day of the Havaianas Event in Rockwell Tent, Makati City. It was extended until today since they want to cater more Havaianas fanaticos. Yesterday Cyril and I, with our friends (Jot, Dante and Berong) went to Rockwell to witness the event. We were already there at 9:30 in the morning. Havaianas fans are already lined up outside. We lined up and chitchat while waiting for the opening of the event. The event started at exactly 10:00 AM and we waited for our turn to go inside. It was orderly though and there were usherettes who guide and show the people what to do or where to go. While waiting for our turn, the usherettes gave us an order form to fill out.

At last it was our turn. We were very excited to go inside to choose our own color of soles and straps. And what pin to put and of course the crystals. After 30 minutes, we were able to choose what to put in our flip-flops. Cyril and I bought 7 pairs of havs. Two pairs each for both of us, a pair for Mom, Dex and Jacky. We were told that the crystals our running out of stocks. So I went to the area where they put the crystals and lined up. The usherette said she can’t assure me that I can get crystals when it’s my turn already because there are no white crystals available and the stocks for the blue and pink crystals are running low. She also said that I could take the risk if I want to. So I took the risk. I was hopeful that I could get some crystals for my Havs. It was my turn and I was very happy because I was lucky enough to get crystals for my havs and for Mom’s havs

The long wait is over, finally Cyril and I made 7 pairs of Havs. We went to the cashier to settle our bill. And after that we got our free drinks and snack. We realized that it was already past lunch time. So we went inside Powerplant Mall and had our lunch there. It was tiring but it was a very nice experience though. And this happens only once a year. It’s worth the wait.

More power to the organizers of the event for making the event a success. It was fun and if there will be an event next year; we will surely be there again.
