iPhone 5 Wanna Be's

Every year Apple fanatics are all waiting for the new product releases of the company,  especially the Amazing Apple iPhone. 


iPhone, for a lot of people, is the trendiest and coolest phone. Not that I don't agree with them, I actually admit that I once craved and drooled over an iPhone but the mutual feeling changed when I had my very first Blackberry. 



Anyways, annually, Apple releases the phone anytime from June to August. But, surprisingly, it's already September and no iPhone 5 is out. However, rumors says it will be officially launched on October. Does this have something to do with Steve Jobs stepping down? 


Because of this delay, tech peeps has been releasing their own iPhone 5 prototypes. But there's no official peek from Apple yet that makes it more exciting of what the iPhone 5 will really be...

  

Love, now and always,

Celestial Events for September 2011

Here are the celestial events for September 2011 that all moon geeks, whether be photographer, astronomer or simple human beings:

• September 12 - Full Moon. The Moon will be directly opposite the Earth from the Sun and will be fully illuminated as seen from Earth. This phase occurs at 09:27 UTC. This full moon was known by early Native American tribes as the Full Corn Moon because the corn is harvested around this time of year. This moon is also known as the Harvest Moon. The Harvest Moon is the full moon that occurs closest to the September equinox each year.


• September 23 - September Equinox. The September equinox occurs at 09:05 UTC. The Sun will shine directly on the equator and there will be nearly equal amounts of day and night throughout the world. This is also the first day of fall (autumnal equinox) in the northern hemisphere and the first day of spring (vernal equinox) in the southern hemisphere.


• September 25 - Uranus at Opposition. The blue-green planet will be at its closest approach to Earth and its face will be fully illuminated by the Sun. This is the best time to view Uranus. Due to its distance, it will only appear as a tiny blue-green dot in all but the most powerful telescopes.


• September 27 - New Moon. The Moon will be directly between the Earth and the Sun and will not be visible from Earth. This phase occurs at 11:09 UTC.

The Same Sky

This is a touchy-sad-happy story. So before reading this story, make sure to get yourself a box of Kleenex® or maybe not.

When I was little, my mother always joins my father at work. To all people who don’t know yet, my father is a seafarer. He, ever since I can remember, works on an oil shipping company that I think delivers oils to different parts of the world: Asia, Europe, America, Dubai, etc. and whenever he joins the ship, months after, my Mom will follow him there. I often wonder why she would leave us for my Dad when there’s such thing like mother’s unconditional love…

I used to be a brat about this and always hate her for leaving us because for me it felt like she would rather be there: travel countries after countries than take care of us, than teach us, than do stuff like regular Moms do for their children.

I also remember that every time she would leave she would buy us really cool stuff like things we always want to have and been dreaming off to posses. It feels happy to get things we want but in exchange for your mother? Would you rather get it? But do I have a choice back then? I don’t have and I need to pretend to enjoy those stuffs and things she bought.

One night before her flight to somewhere I can’t remember to join Dad, she told me something that I still remember and do from time to time. We were seating next to each other on our swing that night, under the Mango trees, beneath the stars… I don’t know why we were there and even the whole topic we are talking about. But there was one thing I always remember and it was when she told me that if I ever feel like missing her, if I ever want her beside me and if I need her when she can’t be with me, all that I have to do is to look at the stars and the sky and remember that no matter how far She is or how far I maybe, we are under the same sky, looking at it and sitting next to each other.

Now that I’m far away… here are the stars, here is the sky. I’m looking at it. I miss her so MUCH.

Love, now and always,

Mia

The Kitchen Musical Singapore, Filipino Stars on the Lead

SINGAPORE -- The Kitchen Musical, a music-dance-drama revolving around the story of a rich, young girl fresh from culinary school, is set to dazzle television viewers across Asia this October, with broadcasts in Singapore, Hong Kong, Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines and 12 other countries.


The four-month long original production by The Group Entertainment spread over 13 one-hour episodes features an international cast, including British thespian Stephen Rahman-Hughes, Filipino powerhouses Karylle Tatlonghari and Christian Bautista, Hong Kong supermodel Rosemary Vandenbroucke and New York-based Filipino stage actor, Arthur Acuña.

This is the first international musical television drama series produced in Singapore for the regional and international markets, airing on AXN Asia, MetroTV in Indonesia, nTV7 in Malaysia, and Studio 23 in the Philippines.

The show, through music, song and dance, will follow the trials and tribulations of Maddie as she begins a journey of self-discovery following her graduation from a culinary school in Paris. She goes to work at her father's restaurant, The Avilon, and learns that she cannot always get her way by being Daddy's girl.

"The audience can expect fresh entertainment that will satiate their appetite for flavor-filled storylines spiced with complex characters, while singing along to their favorite hit songs and enjoying delicious dishes presented in an exciting way," says Nelia Sutrisno, chief executive officer of The Group Entertainment.

"The idea of a musical television series that hones in on Asia's passion for food has never been done before. We wanted to create a fresh and original concept for the global audience that is still well identifiable within the region," adds CheeK, the creator and writer of The Kitchen Musical who is also the executive vice president and creative director of The Group Entertainment.

The television series had the complete commitment of the international cast and crew, who based themselves in Singapore throughout the shoot. The cast was put through four weeks of intense acting and dancing rehearsals, as well as a kitchen boot camp. Each installment of the series will showcase re-arranged and re-recorded popular hit songs brought to life by specially-choreographed dance sequences.

With intercontinental creative personalities sharing the same vision as The Group Entertainment -- Gerard Salonga, internationally-acclaimed conductor and musical director from the Philippines, arranged the music featured in the show; Jason Coleman, Australia's top choreographer, added sizzling moves to the series; and Massimiliano Della Maggesa of the MTJ brand, renowned make-up extraordinaire, provided his creative flair - the show is set to be a visual masterpiece that will tempt the senses.

The Kitchen Musical will be transferred to the stage in the third quarter of 2012 by the Singapore Repertory Theatre. It has signed a deal with US company Electus to produce the content and distribute it across a variety of platforms in the US and around the world.

The Kitchen Musical is sponsored by Anchor Butter, Nestlé All Purpose Cream and Nestlé D'Lite Cream and is in partnership with Republic Polytechnic, Fiji Water, Zwiesel Asia Pacific and Schnap Studio. (PR)
