Spotlight: #BigBadWolfBooksPH is back in Manila

-

It's that time of the year again and the Philippines once again welcomes the wolf with the many books. Yup, the biggest book sale in the world is in Manila once more -- Big Bad Wolf Books. VIP day was last Feb. 13 and the sale officially opened its doors last Valentine's Day. Looks like BBW has learned from its rough patch from last year's faulty system. The main complaint from last year's sale was the slow check-out time. Last year saw the sale be disabled by their computer system, every item scanned took a minute or two before being read by the computers making the time at check-out last to a half-hour per customer. Seeing as it was a big sale, one customer could have about 20 or so books -- imagine how long that would take. By the time this entry has been posted, the #BBWManila2020 has been in the country for four days and I've visited the sales three of those four days. The faulty system has been resolved and the three times I've been on the sal...

If someone knows the quote I'm talking about, feel free to look it up and tell me because right now, I need that to be my life motto.

Needless to say, no one has replied back (yet, fingers crossed). Ah, the harsh part of the next stage of life, after college, the real world. No matter what, the college you attended, the course you took, and...

Spotlight: ETO NA! Musikal nAPO! [Original Filipino Musical]

-

In Celebration of Original Pilipino Music We were driving to a relative's birthday party when my father mentioned that he read in the newspaper that there was a musical currently ongoing that featured the songs of the APO Hiking Society. My father and I are both music lovers and musicians. He is practically the biggest musical influence I have. I immediately got my phone out and searched. True enough, ETO NA! Musikal nAPO! was currently having it's run from August 3 to the 26th. I immediately booked tickets for us. [That sparked a debate because I was a theatre geek and I really wanted to sit up front but my dad preferred a higher vantage point.] Last August 17, a week before the show was to close. My father and I finally got the chance to see it. Here's the rundown! PLOT: ETO NA! Musikal nAPO! is a story of a college barkada who during the tough times of their youth and the current government, stumbles upon a song writing competition. Given their musical t...
