Weekend activities for April 12 and 13, 2014

I decided to stay at home this Saturday because I don't want to see cosplayers at the Comicon and I have no idea where the comicon is.

But surely I will go to the Filipino Freethinkers meet-up. Here are the details:

* Newbies are welcome, and admission is free.
* Early birds get to play board/video/party games with the group.
* Look for the FF sign (or the group of smart, sexy people).
* There is no required age, religion, philosophy, or IQ level.
* Discussions are informal yet intelligent (most of the time).
* You don’t have to talk; you can just sit in and listen.

RSVP on Facebook (optional)
And then after that I need to help my friend at Rizal Park.
