Earth Hour 2010

Earth Hour is a global event organized by World Wildlife Fund (WWF). It's mission is to stop the degradation of the planet's natural environment and to build a future in which humans live in harmony with nature by turning off unecessary power-using materials for one hour simultaneously with the other millions of people around the globe.

Whether you are an individual, a business manager, a school  principal or a City official, you can show your support by turning off your lights for Earth Hour.

As for me, Earth Hour is a global election. Your power switch is your vote. Turn off your power supplies at 8:30 to 9:30 pm this coming March 27, 2010 and it means you cast your vote the option of saving our future.

The principal of Earth Hour is that small actions taken by a large number of individuals can have a large impact on greenhouse gas emissions. If these actions can be backed by larger scale government actions, the impact could be tremendous. Hundreds of millions of people around the world will turn off their lights for an hour to demand action on climate change. Be a part of those people, be part of us!

Urge everyone to spread the word and join millions throughout the world by switching-off their power supply from 8:30 to 9:30 p.m. on the 27th of March 2010.

Greenwich Cebu Levels Up!

I WAS THE first media blogger to arrive in the venue. Andoy and Kuya Rab who were my companions for the entire morning in the event were on their way. After registering ourselves in the entrance of the event area, we took pictures at the photowall.

Each of us were given media kits that served as our guides in the event. Minutes after all the invited media people including some writers from Sun Star, Cebu Daily News, the Freeman and us, the Cebu Bloggers Society settled ourselves in Greenwich SM , the program began.

Two hosts opened the program with humor. It was one good treat for us guests in starting the day right. After a short introduction the waiters distributed a sample of their new food product which is the new Greenwich Pizza Fries.

It's fries with a unique taste having a special sauce dip. The Pizza Fries is available in two delicious flavors namely Pepperoni and Garlic & Cheese. It is a very tasty snack!

What followed next was the welcome address that was delivered by one of the head of the Greenwich Pizza Chain Company. She elaborated the success that Greenwich has achieved in the year 2009 because of their "Greenwich Cheesy Campaign". She as well stressed out that everyone should be looking forward for a better Greenwich Pizza Chain for this year with their new catchphrase "Hanep! Nag level up sa Sarap!".

A video tape record (VTR) viewing prepared by the management followed. It showed how better Greenwich is compared to other pizza chain in the country. It was a very informative and well made video. What spiced up the event was the raffle draw. There were around 20 to 25 attendees of the event and only five lucky people took home awesome raffle prizes including a Php 1000.00 worth of gift certificate in Nike sports shop, a United Colors of Benetton bag and an eight gigabyte Ipod shuffle.
 

The Bacon Chicken Carbonara Supreme filled the tables of the press after the first round of raffle draw. It was the second dish served for us press. It was a tasty snack having tender bacon and small chicken slices smothered in white sauce with Mozarella and Parmesan cheeses that was topped with mushroom and parsely flakes. Olala! Mouth watering? It's as delicious as it sounds!

The second round of raffle draw was done. Most of the winners were newspaper writers. Another video viewing was shown to us by the managment. I could say, it was one very good documentation- a film every pizza lover or perhaps, every foodie guy/gal should see. The film showed the latest things of Greenwich from food to furnishing to to counter to wardrobe.

As expounded in the documented film, the new Greenwich Pizza Chain has improved everything. The order and counter station is now made small for the convenience of the costumers. The tables and seats are colored flesh, red and green- matching the logo of the company and the modern type of atmosphere for sheer comfort and style. All the uniforms are altered too! All are designed by renowned fashion designer Randy Ortiz.

Greenwich's Quarter-slab of pork ribs marinated in a special sauce made our stomach full. It was something every big eater would want to eat. =D Like Kuya Rab. LOL. All those dishes were paired with the delightful beverage Four Seasons. Yummy! Uber great food only in Greenwich!

The scrumptious food treats made our morning. We thought the Slab Pork Ribs were the last dishes to be served but we were wrong. The thick & tender pork chops with java rice and mixed veggies even more made our Monday Morning right! Perhaps, all those treats made our entire day fulfilling!

After a short talk from one of the heads of Greenwich Pizza Chain SM City Cebu Branch, another round of raffle draw was made. After which, a shirt-relay game was conducted and Kuya Rabsin and Upin were one of the six random picked press guests to participate! Wohoooo! And guess what? They leveled up! They won in the game! What's the prize? A barkada blowout package good for ten lucky people! \m/

In the last part of the event, the last round of raffle draw was made giving out the United Colors of Benetton Bag and the eight gigabyte memory Ipod shuffle. Gimme a wild guess who won the bag? LOL. Me! It was a very funny thing during the announcement of the winner of the bag because the host first cited that the winner is a girl and it came from the Cebu Bloggers Society. I happened to be the only girl in the group. We really laughed. 

 We brought home a goodie bag with a unique planner notebook inside before the event ended. It was a very informative and enjoying event with my friends. Straight from our hearts, Kuya Rabsin, Upin and I would like to express our heartfelt gratitude to Miss Charo Baller for inviting us in the awesome event.Thank you so much! God Speed to you and Greenwich!

NEO-FILIPINO 2010 : DANCE IN A TIME OF CHANGE

As the fourth and final offering of Ballet Philippines ` 40th Anniversary season, BP returns to present the best new dance in a showcase of cutting-edge contemporary choreography in Neo-Filipino 2010: Dance In A Time of Change.


Stemming from Denisa Reyes` landmark New York concert, the Neo-Filipino series was transported to the Philippines through its first production in 1991. Since then, the series has presented works from leading choreographers with collaborations from across the other arts. Previous Neo-Filipino productions have highlighted collaborations with theater directors, filmmakers, visual artists, actors, sculptors and musicians in the pursuit of a truly avant-garde and exciting vision for Philippine dance.


Neo-Filipino 2010: Dance In A Time of Change continues this tradition and culls dance from myriad concerns of our evolving times. In this important election year, where our future hangs in the flux of possibility, Ballet Philippines presents works by young choreographers whose aspirations embody the pulse of the age.


BP ballerinas Carissa Adea and Ea Torrado explore urban and personal concerns in Rey-Sing and Two of You. BP alumni Dwight Rodrigazo, now artistic director of his own school and dance company based in Bacolod City , returns to Ballet Philippines with his trademark pulling movements in a new work for the company. Novy Bereber, also a former BP member, presents his To Whom It May Concern, a work that directly addresses the plight and travails of the Filipino dance artist in the time of globalization. Resident choreographer Alden Lugnasin premieres Words and Phrases, an ambitious collaborative work inspired from the paintings of Bienvenido Benitez put into video motion by award-winning filmmaker Emerson Reyes.

Sunday View Day

FREAKING OUT with the time, I fixed myself in a jiffy. "I should have stood up on the first moment of the day that I opened my eyes! " I told myself this morning. I  was in a moment of fighting Mr. Conscience for favoring my restless body from waking up early for our National Service Training Program (NSTP) Acitivy to be held in Mountain View. I was blaming myself. Haha!

I should be in SM Starbucks by 7:00 am to meet my NSTP classmates. At that point of time, it was already 6:30 in the morning. I was really in a rush in preparing myself up! After a one hour ride to the meeting place, I waited for some of my classmates who too were late :P and our teacher, Sir Donn Riel who was still picking up our food and beverages.

We walked ourselves to the street in front of SM to look for a jeepney ride

And yes, this is indeed candid :))

It was already around pass 8:00 in the morning when we all gathered completely at Starbucks. We took the jeepney in transporting ourselves to JY Square. McBilly, a good friend of mine was across the mall while we were all waiting for the service van of Mountain View to come. Some of my friends saw him and they told me so. We finally got a ride after a long wait. We were all astound by the great views along the way to the highest viewing area.

Settling ourselves

I didn't know this picture :))

We took our lunch together after the arranging ourselves and our bags on the tables. We then went to so many areas in the place. We enjoyed the awesome breeze of the wind brushing the leaves of the trees. The views were exemplary! It was like we were staring at a map that was real- very big and the people and cars were moving. The sun was shining so bright but it didn't ruin our day.

Wweeee! Time to eat!

Uber hot!

We later then hooked ourselves with the hanging bridge. It was a very unique and scary hanging bridge. With the color blue, it was made out of thick ropes. Terrifying as it sounds and looks like, the challenge of passing one way through it was something really a great experience.

Gibbi did the dare of passing the bridge back and forth. He was awesome! He showed  to us while he was on his way to the middle part of the bridge that it was something everyone should not be afraid of. He made crazy and scary movements like jumping up and down (while his hands clasp the sides of the bridge), shaking the ropes and posing for some pictures *lol*

We checked the tightness and sturdiness of the ropes before Gibbi did the dare.

I of course did the dare! \m/

I was the first one in line among the girls.

In the long run, we conqured our fears and got used to it!

The above picture shows the bridge is not that very dangerous and scary but seeing it actual, you'll really be astonished of what it is made of and how dangerous it is to pass such kind of bridge. There were so many pictures taken but we haven't uploaded most of it because of some problems with the camera.

After a few hours of staying in the place. We walked down heading to the Karaoke House to charge the batteries of some of our gadgets. Some of my friends sang a few songs. There was another hanging bridge in the place. We all didn't hesitated to pass through it lots of times.

We're immune now. LOL

The bridge. Yup. It's actually easy as it looks :)

We rested for a while in a cottage. Some took pictures and the others enjoyed the wonderful views by walking around the area. My friends told me McBilly was in the place I took a glimpse at the Karaoke House and he was really there. I approached him while he was singing. Bwahhaha! I teased him for a while about his voice and then walked back to my seat. Moments later, Ace, her sister and I caught ourselves with the camera.

"I'm sorry! I didn't mean to ride on him!" XD

"No Granny! I'm Geli! She's Ace!" Tsk3

"I see a good furtune ahead. How about you two?"

Humaygawd! We're lost in time!

And the pure model strikes a pose :))

We turned the tree's frown up side down! Oh Goodie!

We feasted our junk foods and chattered about so many things. A little while later, Sir Donn Riel called our Mountain View service van to pick us up. We all then fixed and prepared ourselves in going home.

McBilly and I talked for a while before my classmates and I rode the van. He and his buddies were their for a certain celebration. I then bid goodbye to him and joined my fellow Icians in posing while the cameras stroked flashes at us.

The whole gang

Inside the van

It was around 3:00 pm when we all got back to JY Square. We all then exchanged goodbyes and made a ride to home. I directly went home to Talisay for a rest. I was a fun-filled day.
