My Malasimbo Music and Arts Festival 2014 Experience @ Puerto Galera

Wazzup Pilipinas!

The Malasimbo Music and Arts Festival this year was such an almost week-long celebration filled with people, be it foreigners coming from other countries or local residents from both nearby or far provinces of the country, who simply want to relax and release their accumulated pressures in life, and for some to explore more possibilities of inspiring and heartwarming realizations here at Malasimbo mountain located Puerto Galera, Oriental Mindoro - one of the Philippines famous getaways where the beaches are great, the entertainment is awesome and the people truly warm, friendly and affectionate.

From day one, the adventure starts early morning as we went around the area seeing fabulous artistry scattered around Malasimbo that these creative people have installed and setup to amaze and bewilder the imagination. They are so unique that no one could possibly ever think of something better (probably only until next year's event). There were a lot of original ideas showcased and explored to the delight of the guests.

The nights were more spectacular as they were always very colorful, fun and engaging. You'll see people dancing, partying, drinking beer, and chatting with each other and gaining new friends, as they got surrounded by beautiful music beats amidst several fancy and artistic kinds displays that completes the experience.

UST JMA Athomic: Strategies for the Modern World of Marketing

Wazzup Pilipinas!

The University of Santo Tomas Junior Marketing Association brought us last March 5, 2014 the annual ATHOMIC: Annual Thomasian Marketers’ Intercollegiate Congress!

It was a gathering of top business professionals and students from different universities for an interactive seminar dubbed also as ATHOMICongress. With the goal of breaking the standards of the Marketing world and to start creating our own rules, speakers shared their years of experience to the attendees, not only to educate but also to inspire on how to improve their skills in the field of Marketing.

I came in early, as always, that the organizers were still setting up the registration area when I arrived at the Medicine auditorium of the Martin De Porres building of UST. Actually, I wanted to catch a glimpse of how the preparations were being made, from the setup of the booths and the stage, to the arrival of the attendees. Quite a number came in a few minutes after the call time of 5 pm where majority were college students.

May Pinaghuhugutan sa #Hugot: Three Heart-Warming Stories from UST Artistang Artlets

Wazzup Pilipinas!

There are very few student plays where I would keep on hearing a few of the audience that couldn't hold voicing out their amazement especially when they're so "kilig" at those adorable scenes that usually shows the endearing sides of the characters.

#Hugot was about three inspirational short love stories dedicated to those who are confused, broken and struggling in order to keep “LOVE” going. The audience was well-immersed with the play since the organizers made it a very intimate and up-close set-up where we could really see the adorable expressions and personalities of each character portrayed really well by the cast from UST's Artistang Artlets. 

I was surprised when I was taken into a dark room where the audience were seated on chairs at the stage itself. They used a flashlight to guide me onto my seat where quite a number of people were already present. There was an upper stage where they've setup a bedroom view, and below, right infront of us, was something like a combination of sala and kitchen set.
