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.

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...

Theatre Like Never Before: National Theatre at Home

Whatever your country calls it -- quarantine, lockdown --  times are tough for everyone as the current pandemic reaches nth waves across the globe. What doesn't seem to change though is that -- change. People are adapting to what they have at their disposals and the human race is once again learning to rely on different things. Things that were never really given much though off until the hand of humanity was forced and everything must now be done via a good internet connection and a laptop. I for one have spent the past two months working from home -- glued to my laptop during most hours of the week and not signing out even though my shift has ended. [Because let's face it, what else is there to do? One can hardly go out if not for anything essential -- and everyone is really encouraged to refrain from stepping out.] In the Philippines, roughly a week after I had posted my review of Matilda -- the country's capital was placed under Quarantine. After a couple of days,...
