SEEN IN THE CITY
Fil-American History Month Celebration at the SanFo City Hall Oct 24th!
I got an emailed invitation from the Office of the Mayor Edwin M. Lee and The Filipino Channel to attend the Filipino-American History Month Celebration on Monday, October 24, 2011. The event will honor the San Francisco Bay Area’s Filipino-American milestones for 2011. Did I hear it right that among the awardees are the 1st-ever Bay Area Fashion Week producers and organizers (40 plus models, 40 plus designers, 700 collections!), The Pistahan at Yerba Buena Organizers (this year is the biggest attendance they have in years!)?
The Perkins Twins are also rendering a couple of song numbers. There will also be a mini-fashion show featuring the latest creations from three of the most promising local designers around us.
I can’t wait to attend.
Briefs & Shorts
Belated “Happy Birthday” greetings to Pleasanton’s Dennis Bernardo (Oct 14), The Perkins Twins - Jesse Perkins & Christian Perkins (Oct 14), & Gary De Guzman (Oct 16).
QUOTE OF THE WEEK
“Ang buhay ay isang malaking Quiapo…madaming snatchers…maagawan ka, kaya lumaban ka!” – one of the “jolting the senses” lines from the box office breaking movie from Viva Films & Star Cinema – “No Other Woman” starring Cristine Reyes, Anne Curtis & Derek Ramsay (finally got his last name spelling right). It is now the highest-grossing Philippine movie of all time, surpassing Sarah Geronimo & John Lloyd Cruz’s “You Changed My Life.”
