Walking With Carlos Celdran

posted on Wednesday, June 4, 2008

I am a true-blue city girl, born and raised in Manila, and probably a good number of you are city folks as well. But do we really know this Manila that we call home? Taking a step back from our everyday routine of work, school, or play will eventually make one realize how little we know of the hundreds of stories that resonate in our busy streets, in the edifices we pass by, and in the old structures that we tend to ignore. It is no doubt that Manila has a story to tell... she just wants us to take some time to listen, and listen well.

As most Halloweens go for me, I would rack my brain for the most original and flamboyant costume I could think off. So you�re probably thinking: do I actually put on the costume I spent more than a month mulling over? Well, no, I can�t even find the time to shop for it, being a serial procrastinator and all. I guess for me the novelty is in challenging my imagination. When I want inspiration for my costumes, I head to Divisoria to get my creative juices flowing.

Mother's Day

posted on Wednesday, May 9, 2007

It's rare to find a person who doesn't dig his or her mom. They birthed us into this world, after all, and nurtured us when we didn't know how to nurture ourselves. So if you're a naysayer and think that Mother's Day is just a big capitalist scheme over nothing, then perhaps it's best to pick another day to take a stand - because Moms are worth all the celebration and hype that the world can muster on this special day, which this year falls on Sunday, May 13.
