• Fluvial Parade

Didn’t bring any camera since I know I don’t have a good view. True! People were early birds. But at least I was able to witness the parade.

• Sinulog Street Vibration

Yes, that’s me! ;) VAMA Motors joined the event and so am I, I was the photo/videographer. I think it wasn’t as successful as last years since they scheduled the event late afternoon in which there was another parade going on so we didn’t push through to the original route. But at least, the organizers managed to find an alternative. Heavy dinner at the showroom after! ;)

Family and I attended the mañanita mass at the Basilica Menore Del Santo Niño, but weren’t able to get inside the church. The place was jam-packed! Thankful still, since we were able to hear the mass in honor of the child Jesus :)

As far as I can remember, had breakfast at Maccas (McDonald’s), went home, slept the whoooole morning o.O Lunch at uncle’s place, went home, street party laaate afternoon. Thus this dirty haggard faces below :p

‘twas the best Sinulog ;) so far! :D heeee

To all Cebuanos out there, there will be a charity event that’ll be held at The Penthouse on October 6, 2011 featuring Cebuano personalities and few known designers to help raise money for the “Mobile School Foundation” for the street kids around Cebu. If you had that deep helpless feeling in your heart to do something about it, this is a little way of doing so.

A bit of background as quoted from one of the organizers:

—-

The Mobile School Foundation is a government funded organization under the Cebu City Task Force for Street Children and was established in the year 1994 seeking to grant less privileged and abandoned children a chance to have an education. Since then, the foundation has benefited 5,904 daycare children and has sent 500 students to formal education.

So basically, these children are the ones we see on the streets and 5x in a week, this foundation goes to 5 different barangay’s to pick children up who want to learn. They’re transported via Kaoshung Bus (just 2) and one (1) Japanese donated bus that serves as their “library”. They entertain about 100-150 children a day which ousts the 2-4 teachers they only have.

—-

Among the growing lists of models are the beauty queen Karla Henry and former PBB housemate Paul Jake Castillo. Entrance ticket is at PHP 300 only which includes 2 cocktails and hors d’oeuvres.

It’ll be best if we can gather large amount of people.

ALL proceeds will be donated to the foundation.

Mark your calendar, October 6, 2011.
