“We invaded Mom and Tina’s Bakery Cafe to celebrate Halloween. The doll with the maddest hat gets all the treats!”

“That’s Lakan, wild party animal.”

“Kol from Mistulan – or Brokeback Mountain.”

“Ashe removed her hat for a hair shot.”

“I met a little girl called Freya. She knows so much about you.”

“Midori makes a fabulous comeback. With a hat.”

“Datu and Molo are not amused.”

“And that’s Nene and me wearing what Joey calls Cap-cakes!”

“Aren’t they sweet? I was so ready to bring home all the candy!”

“But that blasted Melody came. Things went sour.”

“What a show-off!”

“Then all eyes were on Sinag.”

“I just gave up and ate my pride.”

“Then each member voted for the top three hats, and the MMDA officers tabulated the results.”

“These are Joey’s picks: Trick’s 10-Minute Frog On A Garter, Yasu’s French Fries Headband and Rose’s Double-Sided Tape Halo.”

“And these are the real winners. From left, Melody (second runner-up), Bituin (first prize) and Sinag (first runner-up). Yasu won a special prize for boldly wearing french fries on his head.”

“Freej screamed miscount. She can’t believe Trick and his frog didn’t win.”

I can’t believe I didn’t win!
You can’t win all the time, Veritas.

Didn’t you win first prize at the ManikaManila Year 3 Party in Tagaytay?

Only because you were with me, Uno.
I’m sorry I wasn’t able to come with you this time. I’m working on the new Mistula song.

Boo! You never have time for fun stuff anymore, what with all your recordings, charity events, magazine shoots and other totally boring celebrity things! Get a life, Uno.
Oh, cheer up, bitter gourd.

Joey was going to give this Improbable Pig With A Hat Who Just Hit Jackpot as the top prize, but she forgot to bring it to the party – what a scatterbrain.

It’s yours now. Congratulations, Veritas.
OH YAY, I WIN! ♕

I think your cap-cake was the best, anyway.

Thanks, Uno. Your vote counts more than anything.
You will find all these ball-jointed personalities and their mad owners at the ManikaManila Census.
If you’re crazy and you know it, clap your hands and join ManikaManila! Keep tabs on our LJ community for meets and updates.

ALL THE CRAZIES R BELONG TO US

So much fun! ^_^
LMAO. Yes, indeed things did turn sour when Melody came XDXDXDXD… She ruined your chances Veri! But still, you just can’t blame her mommy’s mad sewing skillz.
Le gasp at Lakan’s amazing balancing abilities. Popo stayed put no matter how many times they were moved! Oh, and SO love the dress!
Did Mitsukuni share your cap-cake with you? I’m very sorry if she did. Also, Joey, super cool photos! I really like how you got Freya’s rosy cheeks up there.
November 13th, 2009 - 11:52
Who’s Mitsukuni and Popo?
Joey says thanks for compliment and the gift from Bohol. ♥
November 13th, 2009 - 20:02

Mitsukuni: Sylvanian Families Chocolate Rabbit Baby.

Thank you, Hyde! Your hat was pretty awesome, too.
November 10th, 2009 - 19:49
So sweet.
I thought your hat was lovely Veritas. I wish I could knit one for Christopher
November 13th, 2009 - 12:50
Thank you, Mina. Joey doesn’t know how to knit yet. The cap-cakes are crocheted.
November 10th, 2009 - 19:58
Veritas shoots, she scores!
p.s. Froggy is made of awesome, and everyone else is just blind. And jealous. LOL
November 13th, 2009 - 12:53
Yes, and I’m sure Froggy’s garter snapped out of the sheer pressure to win, Freej.
November 10th, 2009 - 20:09

A LANDMARK ACHIEVEMENT! I wouldn’t even attempt to be the first to post, not if you’re around.
Thank you for being such an efficient MMDA officer! And who are the MMDA?

November 11th, 2009 - 02:00
Awesome pictures! I said earlier in another person’s LJ post, but that was a great idea for a meet-up!
I’ll be in the Philippines next month, hopefully I’ll be able to catch some of your dolls in action out there! (Currently debating if I want to haul both of my dolls with me or just one.)
November 13th, 2009 - 16:19
Thank you, Cheryll! The themes make the meets more fun! I hope you can join us next time. Just let us know when you’re coming so we can alert the brass band!
November 11th, 2009 - 03:05
Cap-keyks! @_@
November 13th, 2009 - 16:21
I didn’t finish Nene’s! There is no cherry on top! Boo! But since she’ll be with me FOREVER, I have LOTS OF TIME to work on it.
November 11th, 2009 - 06:55
“All eyes were on Sinag” indeed. XDXDXDXD But awww, at least at the very end, Veri still has Uno X3.
And whoa! A new song? I’m definitely waiting for that. XDXDXD
November 13th, 2009 - 18:16
Yes, I’m veri lucky.
But with all his work now, I can only have him for short periods of time! Boo.
November 11th, 2009 - 08:02

November 11th, 2009 - 09:11
OMG! The hat design all are so cute! I love the big strawberry shortcake hat!!! *___* Pretty
November 13th, 2009 - 18:47
It won first place and a total of 11 candies!
It would’ve gotten the Improbable Pig With A Hat Who Just Won Jackpot but I forgot to bring it to the meet. Shame.
November 11th, 2009 - 18:16
Eeee… I love hat parties!
Wish I was there… (T___T)

November 13th, 2009 - 18:56
There was only one lollipop, Lala. Joey didn’t make it. Her friend, Heather, sent it to us from the US with a lot of other BJD-sized things.
MELODYYYYYY! Harrumph.
November 12th, 2009 - 14:56

November 12th, 2009 - 19:42
“I’m sorry I wasn’t able to come with you this time. I’m working on the new Mistula song.” —> the pains of working overtime are all gone upon reading this line.

I’m not sure if I want to be in Edward Cullen’s spot, Rainee, but thank you.
November 13th, 2009 - 05:30
Aww, Uno you are too sweet. <3
Can I ask? Are you and Veritas….together? Or are you just “close friends you are probably more like siblings”? At any rate, you are both so sweet to each other, it makes my heart all melty. <3
November 13th, 2009 - 19:05
Well, we live in the same house but we’re not together. It’s complicated.
November 15th, 2009 - 01:35
Ohhh. I see. I think.
You’re both very cute. *nodnod* To each other, even if you’re just ‘friends’.
November 13th, 2009 - 18:32
WAAAHHHHHHH!!!!!!!! Haha, this suddenly became one of my top favorite FA entries… *faints*
(Aw, Veri. Your cap really was cute, anyways.
)
November 13th, 2009 - 19:10
AND WHERE WERE YOU, BEA?! We all had plans to formally induct you into the MMDA at the meet and you did not attend. Next meet, be ready with your acceptance speech.
November 18th, 2009 - 21:26

I… thought it was the weekend after.
November 16th, 2009 - 06:01
My Yasu was feeling french so for his chapeau I made him wear French Fries! Hahaha. I had fun during the event!
November 16th, 2009 - 13:16
Oh, what a cute concept for a party! I love all the hats!
Veritas, I must say you got the best prize of all.
November 17th, 2009 - 10:02
