(Conclusion)

And so it finally happened – the 20th anniversary party of  The Philippine STAR held last Friday at the Rizal Ballroom of the Makati Shangri-La Hotel. Although it took me two hours to get there from Greenhills, it was worth the trip because it was The Event – with everyone from this town showing up to party.
