Why Only White?

A Prelude to Kotex Luxe Experience
Kotex Bloggers' Event
September 28, 2010
7PM, Bizu Greenbelt Makati

WOW was the first word I read as soon as we arrived at Bizu, where we were invited for a bloggers' event. I guess I was not really paying attention that I didn't the big question posted underneath the banner design. Plus the fact that I was excited taking pictures all over with my new-found friends.



So the question when the program commenced: Why Only White? I was asking the same thing to myself. But then, I said, so what? it's just a pad. It wasn't until I realized how far long it can affect my mood during my period. Isn't it that us, girls have these mood swings during our "visits?" Sometimes, I feel like I'm too grumpy and sad and all. And that nothing fits right because you feel the pain of these "visits" all over.

Well, my perspective about pads changed when the people from Kimberly Clark asked us to design our own pad during the program. I was having my period that night and I imagined, if I was to design my own pad, how would I like it be when I wear it? It was like designing your own shirt and actually wearing it and it was really fun! I never knew a pad can be a part of your fashion statement. Well, yes it's just a pad and nobody will know what you were wearing. It doesn't matter to anybody really, but it matters to you, to me, to us girls who wears it. Because we all feel the same way when period tries to put a stop on our activities. We all share the same sentiments when hormones hits us and makes us feel sappy. And the best thing that could happen to a period is a nice pad that you can wear. Nice in the sense that it does not only give you the protection every pad is offering, but nice, that it will also make you feel like you're wearing a statement.

So I thought, this is how I want my pad to be when i wear it:


My Kotex Pad design (hey, my work was chosen for the night along with 2 other designs!)

Too bad, I'm on the last phase of my period and I won't be able to use the Kotex Luxe samples that were given to us. Anyhow, I would still be using them next month and I just can't wait!

Meantime, I hope to share some of the flicks we got that night. I really enjoyed these bunch of beautiful girls and having them around made me feel forever young. I wouldn't even mind to be with them more often.
