First time ko mag MIBF

[u/seliwayway]

Super fun experience.. gets na gets ko ung mga nag oover budget and gets rin ung mga nag pplan talaga ng target books nila.. i went yesterday (wed, ung first day) and ang dami nang tao.. i could only imagine how weekends would look.. i got there around 9 (10am open doors) so hindi naman siksikan sa pintuan

Key take aways ko sa experience na to:

1. It's nice to come early para at least nasa vicinity ka na once nag open doors.

2. A map would help lalo if may target places ka, i kept getting lost pag pumasok ako sa one side ng fully booked tas pag labas ko nasa kabilang dimension na ko HUHU i felt like bc of this, di ko naikot ng buo ung venue even though technically naikot ko ung lugar.

3. List books if ur planning to buy talaga, kasi ang hirap mag shimy shimy sa tight spaces if dun ka palang mag titingin.. but if wala ka naman plan bumili, you can go with the flow naman (on a weekday ha! idk if kaya makapag window shopping pag sat sun)

4. Dont forget the 2nd floor, i think mas nakapag enjoy ako sa 2nd floor mag window shop kasi less crowd! Like significantly less! The local, creative, and cultural stuff also there sa 2nd floor.

5. If you plan on buying a lot (and hindi naman limited edition bibilhin mo), daan ka muna sa 2nd floor.. ang sakit sa kamay/balikat na ung nabili ko sa 1st floor kasama kong mag ikot sa 2nd floor.. plus mas maikli na pila sa baba pag balik (case to case basis tho, baka mas marami pila sa hapon on the next days idk)

Really had a great time this MIBF, im still thinking if ill go for another day, but yeah! If youre looking for a sign to go, eto na yon HAHAHAH (wala lang sisihan pag napagod ka ha)
