Get edUKated : United Kingdom... Here We Come!!!

Wazzup Pilipinas!

Who doesn't want to study abroad and rub shoulders with students from all over the world?

I would love to be among the lucky ones to get the opportunity to study in a foreign country and immerse myself to different cultures. It will be both a fascinating learning experience and an eye-opener to further expose me to the rst of the world.

I wouldn't want to get stuck in the Philippines. I would enjoy a few years earning a degree outside the country. I guess many people really look up to those who are given the chance to excel thru world-class education brought about by studying at a prestigious school.

At the Get edUKated event held at the Mandarin Oriental Hotel, many young people were given the opportunity to learn more about the probabilities of studying in the United Kingdom.


UKEAS, the leading UK educational advisory agency in Asia, continues its strong campaign to encourage Filipinos to invest in their education with this blockbuster exhibition.

Giordano Spring Summer 2014 Collection

Wazzup Pilipinas!

Giordano makes its Philippine Fashion Week debut with a Spring Summer collection that offers sea-side glamour and earthy appeal while staying true to its clean and casual vibe.

Providing essential and timeless fashion for all, the new collections, Holiday Cruise and Linen Story – up the Spring Summer 2014 ante with nautical elements, updated chambrays, summer linens and oxfords in crisp pastel palette.

All aboard cruise lines with posh beaches for stop-overs, Holiday Cruise is inspired by luxurious travels and sandy shores. Starting with a selection of Breton tops both for male and female paired with oxford and linen shorts, the look is reminiscent of the easy French Riviera fashion. The nautical theme sails on with a plethora of chambrays and various fabrics like Tencel® offered in a range of washes and prints from heavy indigo to washed-out shades. Transitioning from the blues to a more summery palette, lightweight oxford shirts complete the Holiday Cruise collection. In solid chalky hues, the shirts look smart under a cotton blazer or worn as is. A few dresses add some feminine touch to the entire collection, while male polos with pieced patchwork keep the preppy charm.

DOS Espiritu: Isang Quadro Trianggulo sa Sulok ng Mundo Photo Exhibit

Wazzup Pilipinas!

DOS Espiritu: Isang Quadro Trianggulo sa Sulok ng Mundo tackles gender sensitivity issues faced by our lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender brothers and sisters in a culturally conservative Filipino society.

The exhibit aims to break through social barriers and to create a culture free from discrimination of sexuality. Changing the way we look at this issue would bring us a step further in the journey to gain respect and whole acceptance of gender diversity in our society.

The week-long exhibit also features well-known and new-breed artists, music, film-showing, and the launch of RESTORE Outdoor club.

Kanto Artist Run Space is located at The Collective, 7274 Malugay St., San Antonio Village, Makati City.
