Wazzup Pilipinas!

At a press conference held at the Lorenzo's Way restaurant last October 21, 2014, the team responsible in organizing BGC Passionfest 2014 announced the many planned activities happening on the three event dates highlighted by traditional Filipino food, games, and culture-inspired activities like kalesa rides, street food extravaganza and many more.
Your friendly neighborhood pambansang blogger is such a sucker for "throwbacks" and historically significant events so these activities lined up this last week of November would be a sure hit for me. This will also make the young ones appreciate the good old days when the Internet has not yet conquered the lifestyle of many individuals. Nowadays when smartphones, social media and apps ruled the past time of many, it is such a wonderful sight seeing the youth experience how it was during the past.
This year's theme is dubbed as "A Boni-Fide Urban Fiesta" will begin on November 28 with a Kick-Off Street Party where Bonifacio High Street literally comes to life with colourful Filipino dances staged in a bright parade at night. The grand street party also signals the start of the much-awaited Supremo Sale, opening the doors to the numerous participating BGC stores!
