Red Bull Asks PH Students: Can You Make It (in Europe)?

Wazzup Pilipinas!

Are you a local university student with an up-for-anything attitude and a great sense of daring? Got two other friends who crave adventure as much as you do? If so, Red Bull wants you for Can You Make It? 2016, an epic journey featuring 165 student teams from more than 50 countries around the globe, traveling across Europe using Red Bull as their only currency.

Open to teams of three current university students, Can You Make It? invites interested Filipino participants to create a minute-long video explaining why they should be chosen to represent their country while showing their love for adventure and their smarts – a few of the more important attributes that make a winning Can You Make It? team.

Entries should be uploaded to www.redbullcanyoumakeit.com no later than February 14, 2016. Then teams are encouraged to gather as much social media support during the online voting period to make it as finalists. Among them, a panel of judges is set to pick winning teams that will represent their countries and will get a chance to begin their one-of-a-kind, week-long adventure this April 2016 at one of five starting points in Europe: Barcelona, Florence, Berlin, Edinburgh, and Prague.

During its first season in 2014, Can You Make It? had among its roster the Philippines’ own Beasts of the Southeast made up of Dave Agbayani, Red Calayan, and R-jay Esposo from the University of the Philippines. They began their journey in Schwechat, Austria and traded Red Bull cans through Slovenia, Italy, Switzerland, until their final stop with the rest of the international teams in Munich, Germany.

Wazzup Pilipinas!

Vikings Luxury Buffet restaurant has been synonymous with special celebrations since it opened its doors of its first branch in the SM by the Bay area of the Mall of Asia. Families and friends have gathered to savor the specialty seafood, meat, vegetarian dishes and desserts of the international buffet especially prepared by its experienced chefs.

The concept has become very popular as a venue for celebrating milestones and special occasions, and it is now launching its Vikings Venue in the Seaside Boulevard of the SM By the Bay complex because of numerous requests. The patrons of Vikings Luxury Buffet love to celebrate the most important events of their lives. This is why it has decided to offer a more spacious and private place that offers an all-you-can-eat dining experience unlike any other, without having to pay for the events place. Clients will only pay for the buffet, which will include the well-loved dishes from the Vikings restaurants.

There are Five (5) function rooms in the event venue that can be combined to accommodate more guests. Function Room 1 can fit 120 to 150pax, Function Rooms 2, 3, and 4 can accommodate 50 to 70 each, and Function Room 5 can accommodate 120 to 150 guests.

With its tagline of "All Occasions in One Place", the Vikings Venue is ideal for romantic wedding receptions, family reunions, or fun birthday celebrations. The interiors are classic and luxurious, with a high ceiling and stylish accents. For client’s convenience, Vikings has partnered with Carousel Styling by A. Sia Design for event styling needs. At the moment, clients also have the option to book their events suppliers such as party stylists, photo booths and entertainment to personalize their celebrations. 

Lucky Number 13 Wins Miss Aviation Philippines 2016

Wazzup Pilipinas!

I keep telling people that the number 13 is not unlucky. Well, it was indeed a lucky number for candidate number 13 of the Miss Aviations Philippines 2016 competition on February 9, 2016 at the Manila Peninsula hotel in Makati.

The new muse of aviators is now Kristine Malicsi, followed by Reichelieu Santos as 1st runner up and Trizia Abaya as second runner up. Congratulations to the girls for a well deserving win.

Coincidentally, all their numbers were in a series as the other two were candidates number 15 and 14 respectively. Also, from what was revealed during the swimsuit competition proper at Camaya Coast, the leading candidates were also the three who also won awards during that part of the competition.

I pretty much like everything that happened on the grand coronation night as the girls were all splendid on stage. From the different attires they wore up to the Question and Answer portion where they all answered the judges questions very intellectually.

Capt. Joy Roa and Carla Cabrera Quimpo couldn't be any prouder for the candidates who were all spectacular that night. Cleo Margaret Brown also gave his last walk as Miss Aviation Philippines 2015 to make way for the new Aviation beauty.
