The ADDLIB of a Dancer: Featuring Elgin Bez


Wazzup Pilipinas!

The first thing that pops into my head when I hear the word “adlib” is to improve your speech with your own style. But in the world of dance, adlib takes on a different meaning.

Honestly, I didn’t know them at first. I barely watch television so I have no idea on how they perform and where they put on a show. I tried searching on Google about their group name and I came across the ADDLIB website. They look so promising and fierce. So I got thrilled when I received an invitation to interview one of the most sought-after dance crew in our country.

The moment I stepped into Blue Light Studios, the thought of dropping my bag and sway to the beat of the music filled my mind. But then again I had to pull myself back to reality. The studio was big enough to accommodate quite a number of people. There were people slumped on the floor while some were in the chairs. Four of them were in front of the mirrors warming up. I entered the other room and I saw a couple of girls prepping up.


Miss World 2013 Megan Lynne Young Visits Philippine Postal Corporation

Miss World 2013 Megan Young was early for her appointed time and had to wait for several minutes inside the car.

The stamps, souvenir sheets and First Day Covers were issued last February 24, 2014 which enables stamp, memorabilia, missosologist, Megan Young fans, school alumni, and Miss World collectors to buy the issuance. After all, it is not everyday that you can see a Filipina winning an international title.

Not all winning countries in the Miss World pageant will automatically issue a commemorative stamps and First Day Cover. Asian countries like India which won Miss World 5 times, 1966, 1994, 1997, 1999, 2000, Israel 1998, China 2007, and 2012 did not issue any commemorative stamps.

The BrainFit Advantage: Success Secret of Top Performers in Class


Wazzup Pilipinas!

Want better performance for your child? Get him brain fit, in the way that suits him.


We walked into BrainFit Studio one afternoon, expecting to find the typical classroom in session, with teachers guiding students in standard tasks.

Instead, what we saw was that, within the same hour, the children – even those in the same class - were working on a different exercise as they focused in meeting their own learning needs, at their own pace.

And it makes complete sense.

“Each individual has a unique brain profile,” according to Ms. Cheryl Chia, Singapore-based clinical physiotherapist and founder of BrainFit Studio. “We assess each brain’s strengths and weakness with a CognitiveMAP, an evaluation tool that determines which of your child’s 5 Brain Pillars* need enhancement.”

The CogMap assessment is a proprietary tool used to measure and analyze the brain fitness level or cognitive skill of a student. They will be able to identify the key opportunity or improvement areas that are needed to be addressed as well as take advantage of the strengths to achieve success and optimum performance.
