allana’s family day
Yesterday was Allana’s 1st family day over at Saint Theresa’s college (STC). AS four of the kids were all ready to go explore the events of the day, I only had the babies left as my willing photography subjects (except for the first photo).

STIR party iPhone outtakes
Even if I had my trusty Canon 20D by my side to take “official photos” of the event, I had to whip out my iPhone to take a few Hipstamatic shots. Here are a few…

Texas Roadhouse Grill
Just a few hours ago, I had an extremely fulfilling meal — and I was just taking bites in between schmoozing with the bloggers and resto management.
Texas Roadhouse Grill, with the participation of Pepsi held a sumptuous event at the TRG El pueblo branch last night and offered a wide array of dishes. From soups to salads from surf to turf, and of course, the evening was capped off with a delicious bit of dessert.
The meal commenced with a Tortilla Soup: a hearty starter packed with bits of chicken, corn and ham topped with slivers of crisp and crunchy tortillas. The soup in itself is quite filling, with all of the ingredients packed into a small bowl. Those that are into the Tex-Mex taste, this is a definite must-try.
Of course, what are starters without appetizers? To satisfy the growing hunger, the bloggers were also served the Jesse James Sampler — a platter of buffalo wings and cheese fritters just to whet the appetites.
Hi-5 Blogger Event
A few hours ago, I had the pleasure of meeting 5 energetic Australian performers — Casey, Tim, Lauren, Stevie and Fil-Aussie Fely — otherwise known as Hi-5. And, unexpectedly, I can now truly say that I am a fan.
[L-R: Hi-5's Tim, Lauren, Casey, Fely and Stevie]
Vibrant, bubbly, lively, vigorous and colorfully dressed are some adjectives you could use to describe the quintet… but that would be an understatement. As through the course of the informal interview, we got to know them as a group and quickly realized that their energy is simply overflowing and infectious. Tim mentioned that they feed off the energy of the crowds they perform for… but on this evening, it was on reverse, and I witnessed what made these five performers appealing to toddlers, young ones and kids of all ages — their zest for life.

Live Free
Last Saturday, I experienced a concert of a different kind.
Life Haven, Inc., an organization promoting the Independent Living philosophy for persons with disabilities (PWD) held a benefit concert at Crossroads 77 to raise funds to continue their services of assistance to PWDs in need.
On hand to showcase their talents were a few special performers: the Beautiful Gate Performance Art Troupe from Malaysia, the talents of Tahanang Walang Hagdan Ballroom Dancers on Wheelchairs, Bahay Mapagmahal Rondalla on Wheels and the Sparkle Band, as well as an up and coming band, the Good Morning High Fives and one of my fave local bands, Juan Pablo Dream.
Yahoo! Philippines launches Project Purple
Adhering to its company colors, Yahoo! Philippines has just launched an innovative endeavor in sharing Filipino passions with the rest of the world via its latest local venture, Project Purple.
The social movement actually began in the US with Yahoo!’s ‘Start Wearing Purple’ campaign, and has moved out of North America for the first time — with the Philippines as its first stopover, as Yahoo! Philippines GM Jojo Añonuevo realizing that “there are millions of creative, innovative and passionate Pinoys.”
Añonuevo added: “Project Purple is a social movement and is open to everyone — online and offline. We are rallying Pinoys to be Purple and utilize the internet to aim higher.”
The campaign aims to empower Pinoy Passions — to encourage and nurture the Filipinos’ natural creativity, innovativeness and drive to excel in their chosen fields. So much so, that six up and coming local artists have submitter their artworks to Yahoo! to be featured i a soon-to-be-released limited edition art book showcasing the perspectives of 20 different graphic artists from around the world. Also, local art group WeeWillDoodle will create a truly unique and one-of-a-kind art piece, using a Honda Jazz as their canvas.
At their launch, various artworks from up and coming Pinoy artists were on display, photos from local photogs were up for view (via a Flickr gallery) and WeeWillDoodle were on hand for a “on-the-spot” artwork creation, using the audience suggestions on what “purple” meant to them.
