2017's Eve

Right decision to buy the round cake, the round pastries, the round fruits yesterday.  At least, don't have to wake up early.  Will just have to leave the house around 3:30PM to go to Emerald Garden Restaurant to pick-up the food I ordered for our media noche.

Thus, set-up the area where we would be watching a movie, even the countdown on a local station projected on a screen (white cloth which I bought earlier and have holes sewn).

My equipment:

• Projector
• Two yards white sheet as projector screen
• Cut black garbage bag to put behind the white sheet
• Laptop -- which eventually tested not needed
• External hard drive with the videos
• Digital TV box -- which has USB where I can attach the external hard drive
• JBL Charge 3 speaker

Tested my set-up and is ready for the evening while waiting for 12 midnight.

By 3:30PM, Edgar the driver arrived for us to pick-up the food I ordered.  Bought extra food for him and Vangie (Kuya's secretary) as my new year gift.


Ate early so that we can already watch our movie, Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone.  After, wanted to watch the countdown but only GMA 7 will have a new year countdown.  The digital TV box was able to get only the signal for ABS-CBN.  Hayyy... Resorted to watching it on a standard TV.  Would have been great if we can do so on a big screen.

Happy 2017!
