Coco Week : A Celebration of All Things Coconut!

Wazzup Pilipinas!

All I could say was "Wow!" when I saw how really vast the usage of the coconut was. The free event celebrating the versatile coconut and its various usage confirmed the facts that the coconut indeed is the most useful fruit ... or nut!

Sampling some of the coconut food products were appreciated and buying some non-food products for take-home souvenirs made my day. The lectures on the latest technologies related to the coconut industry was also a worthwhile reason why I stopped to sit down and listen intently.

The Philippine Coconut Authority (PCA) in coordination with the private sector spearheaded the celebration of the 27th National Coconut Week and 12th Coconut Festival at the Mega Trade Hall of SM Megamall, Mandaluyong City a few weeks ago.

This year's theme was "Biyaya ng Niyugan, Kaunlaran ng Bayan", an apt label to the benefits derived from the coconut and its contribution to the country's economy.

OMG! The ink gods heard our prayers – and we are tremendously grateful. The wait is finally over and we are celebrating big time for the coming of the most spectacular and grandest tattoo convention in the Philippines.

This much-awaited event will surely be a crowd-pleaser as it is the most popular and powerful gathering of tattoo experts combined with fabulous performances and very naughty and exhilarating competitions every tattoo art lover would appreciate.

I can't wait to step into the doors of the World Trade Center this September 27 and 28, along with my equally excited friends to witness Dutdutan Trece, the thirteenth run of the world-famous Dutdutan!

Get ready for Wazzup Pilipinas, the online media partner of Dutdutan Trece!!!

Copernicus : Aerodance '13

Wazzup Pilipinas!

Good things come from small beginnings. We must learn to walk baby steps until we finally learn to run. I suppose our section Copernicus can attest to that.

To be honest, we weren't off to a great start. There were a couple of misunderstandings along the way but fortunately, we managed to surpass them and build a bond among us. During the aerodance competition last month, we were given a chance to show off our talents. 

At first, we were being complimented by Sir Gabby, our MAPEH teacher but a few days before the aerodance, we were quite confused regarding our abilities. We had last minute practices -- four days before the competition -- and last minute steps -- the Whoops Kirri. We also had a small problem about our props. But we didn't raise the white flag just yet.
