With my brilliant blue hair I lead all Barbie girls to this summer's Dreamtopia Journey!

This summer lends an electrifyingly exciting hue as I break from the pink and go all bedazzling blue! Welcome one and all to Barbie's unforgettable Dreamtopia Journey! Feel my signature electric Barbie blue energy; here's my opening salvo:
Lovely moms and their li'l Barbie girls got to join in on the magical runway fun during our fashion parade, where twinning Barbie mommies and Barbie girls sashayed down magical the Dreamtopia stage for an unforgettably enchanting time! 
And I also got snaps of the backstage action, like this one where I was doing my voice-over spiels, summoning all fairies and princesses of Barbie's magical kingdom! 
 Adorable Barbie babies greeting me backstage, sans my magical blue hair! Oh my! Now they saw the real me, when I am not Tita Barbie...    
 Within the iconic Barbie box featuring the real me: my messy, chopped hair and my running shoes. I am always on the go! For those who truly know me, they know that hosting and speaking is my drug! The opium that gets me high all day! When my 'hosting high' wears off, you see me looking forward to my next exciting events hosting gig or speaking engagement... 
 I am the original Filipino Barbie girl, at it for Mattel and Barbie events for a decade, since 2008. I am a Barbie girl para sempre...
In this video I reveal what's truly been burning since I was a child. Not a lot of people know that I am a writer. I get by today with hosting as it is my love and passion, but I know it is not my destiny. Catch me open my heart to my fellow events emcee, Jazper Tiongson who came as one of the judges and guest vloggers for this event: 
One day I shall bow out of hosting to fulfil my ultimate destiny. But for now, I grasp my mic for as long as I still can. I am getting older, but still at it. And why not? Barbie herself, born Barbara Millicent Roberts in 1959 continues to be a timeless icon even if she's only a year shy of being a sextarian, this 2018, Barbie celebrates her 59th birthday! 
Thanks so much Sir Shan who first discovered me to be the Barbie host and also to Ate Josie above of Richprime / Mattel Philippines! And to close, here's a look back of some of the events I've done for Barbie through the years; I can't put them all as I'd flood up this entire page if I include all the links to my past Barbie events, so below are just my top 3 favorites; the most memorable Barbie events I've emceed for:

Meeting stars Julie Anne San Jose and Mike Tan as I emcee for Miniso SM Center Muntinlupa!

And I am back in my bright red dress as I get ready to emcee for another exciting MINISO Japanese Designer event, this time for MINISO SM Center Muntinlupa! Like the fans of our celebrity guests, Julie Anne San Jose and Mike Tan, I had to take another snap... this one's a less zoomed version... Can you say Japan-nice?

And now, here are a few videos of myself in action... watch as I lend my high energy during this awe inspiring store opening!

Not only did I get to take selfies with Mike Tan and Julie Anne San Jose; I also got to interview these two... click on the video below to watch!  
Can you guess which fashion accessories in the following two photos below I got from MINISO? HINT: All of them! I just love these lovely items that all come at an amazingly low price tag! And it's all only at MINISO!

What's up, Catsup? Welcome to the first and only Catsup Museum in the World... thanks to Nutri Asia!

 Welcome one and all, to the world's first and only Banana Catsup Museum! Congratulations to NutriAsia, Inc.!
Thank you so much for letting me serve as master of ceremonies for this one-of-a-kind affair! Here I was posing with the #Bananions after the program and right before our fun and unforgettable tour... 
This blog post is one of the longest if not the longest I've ever published here because of three things: I absolutely loved and enjoyed every moment of this hosting gig, this is a special event because I got to bring my son along and lastly, there are just too many cool photos taken and totally awesome trivia learned at the Banana Catsup Museum tour that I just have to share here! Stuff that blow your mind and make you proud to be a banana catsup loving Filipino at the same time! 
Going Bananas. Who wouldn't love posing right here at the museum foyer? It's raining bananas... because here (and in our kitchen), bananas reign supreme! Reach for the stars! Yup, bananas (and banana catsup of course) are the shining stars in this museum! 
The quirky banana catsup factory... you will be so enthralled! I wonder where my son is hiding... we're supposed to head to the Orosa Hall now. Hmmm, where could that cheeky boy be? 
 And here we were, as you can already see, at the Maria Orosa Hall. Maria Orosa wasn't just an amazing cook and food tech; she is heroine who concocted superb catsup made from bananas during World War 2, and she also helped save and nurture tons of lives during those very difficult times! People like her make me truly proud to be Filipino!  
Banana Catsup puts the "YUM" in Museum! My Matthew going crazy over the replicas of yummy grub which you can pour your banana catsup on... he loves burgers in real life, and here in this museum too... Can you say MuseYUM! Hope to see you all at this awe-inspiring MuseYUM! 
My little superhero defending the banana catsup making machine from the evil fiends of the Bananions... the Rotten Tomatooks who want to take away all the bananas so we can no longer make any more banana catsup for they do not want to share catsup supremacy with the hard-working, cheerful Bananions! Oh, why can't we all just be friends? 
I absolutely love UFC, but as for my son, he just loves his Papa... Ketchup! Both UFC, Papa and even Jufran banana catsup are all proudly made by Nutri Asia. And for sure you've all heard the news that they've also acquired Del Monte in the United States about more than two years ago. It really is great to be Filipino! 
 And yup, like any kid, my son loves fried chicken and pouring banana catsup on his chicken (and also over every fried meal he eats). 
 Matty and I were totally banana blown away! Like this... 
 Patiently waiting for his turn to pose like me as I pour catsup on the replicas of another one of hi faves: burger and fries! 
 But nope, I won't let him have his turn. This photo essentially captures how we fight over the bottle of banana catsup at home. We love each other so much and I am usually generous with my son... but not when it comes to our favourite catsup! This is the Mom versus Kid Battle... or Bottle! 
And now, here I was with some of NutriAsia's wonderful big bosses, Ms. Ampy and one of the owners... Special shout out to Sir James Lim of Marketing for letting my little boy join in on the fun; unfortunately we don't have a photo together for this event but I made sure we have a snap together for my second gig for NutriAsia (so please stay tuned). 
But here's my very own big boss, my little VIP who probably enjoyed the tour so much more than I did! And I tell you I enjoyed it a bunch... get it? A (banana) bunch!
To end, let me quote the very words of my life's greatest love, in his catsup-crazy-drunk words in the photo below... thank You Lord, for my son... thank You Lord for banana catsup!!! 
Hope you felt just how bananas my son Matty and I were during this wonderful experience! Thank you so much again to everyone from Nutri Asia and the Mind Museum!

'LEGO' have some fun at Lego Heartlake City!

We built this city... we built this city on LEGO! Finally, much to my son's glee, I've landed a Lego hosting gig! And now, say hi to Olivia from Lego Friends! 
My big smile (below) says it all. I just love what I do. I know I wear the crown as the events hosting queen here, and I intend to hold on to my scepter (the microphone) for as long as I can! 
Those who know me well as an events host / emcee know and appreciate the fact that I always come well-dressed for the affair, and I am proud to say that I am among the few versatile speaker / events hosts out there. I always look apt for the occasion and when it comes to kids' events such as this one, I totally come in my character inspired look, especially for the events I've done for Disney, Barbie, Monster High, Shopkins, Peppa Pig, and now Lego... 
This was totally the look I was going for... well, at least I got to copy Olivia's 'do. 
 I am absolutely grateful for events wherein I can involve my growing boy. Photo above shows my dear son Matty brick-ing his back over his newest masterpiece... and photo below: Viola! His obra maestra! Am so proud of my little builder! 
 Thank you so much LEGO Philippines for letting me and my son have a grand time! You've definitely helped him achieve one of his many, many kiddy playtime dreams, and best of all... thanks for the loot too! Now we have more LEGO bricks to add to his already mountainous collection! 
And the best part about our LEGO Friends playtime party experience was that my son was able to make new Friends! Hooray for Lego! Hooray for Friends! Hooray for Lego Friends! 
Check out the grandeur of Lego Friends' Heart Lake City below... if only this was a real place... I'd love to hang out at this spot all day long...

It's good to be Bax: Hosting for Kriska and Francis Bacani's breathtaking beach wedding!

Oh to be in love! I may be wearing blue, but certainly not feeling blue as I lead the wedding of adorable couple, Kriska and Francis... The Bacanis, or simply Bax! Photo above with the beautiful couple at their reception and their best man, the groom's best friend, Justin. 
 Sunsets are simply awe-inspiring... what an honour to host for the Bacani's special day on such a breathtaking day! 
The venue they chose, this lush coco grove resort proves to be such a magnificent backdrop to this very special memory, the first step to forever for lovers Kriska and Francis...  
 And I arrived with my very own handsome date, who was such a good boy throughout the night as his mommy worked hard to give the couple and their guests an entertaining and meaningful wedding reception program! 
Set in a breathtaking beach resort, at Laiya Coco Grove, this super cute couple who have been friends since forever (by forever I mean college) were actually my batch mates in De La Salle University Manila. And today, they look youthful as ever and still very much in love. 
I give props to Kriska who has been the coolest bride ever! She is no bride-zilla, she had been chill throughout the one year planning stage of her wedding, where she booked me already a year before the big day!
Thank you so much to the beautiful Bacani couple, and may this beautiful new chapter of your lives be filled with love, prosperity and happiness... 
Cheers to a lifetime of joy and true love!
