Lalaloving Day 2 of Lalaloopsy's Spectacular Meet & Greet Party!

And I am back once more for another Sew Magical and Sew Cute post account about my Lala-dorable, Lala-lovable and Lala-rriffic Meet & Greet party at Lalaloopsy land! For Day 2, I just cannot help but go lala over my Lalaloopsy land outfit for the show which I am so glad to come up with - thanks to old stuff in my closet and of course, the trendy outfits on my Lalaloopsy dolls which inspired me to make this look as Twist E. Twirl, made out of love and red licorice...

This day proved to be bigger and better and the place was just jampacked with Lalaloopsy lovers who trooped in Robinsons Galleria to see our Lala-lovely buddies Peanut Big Top and Crumbs Sugar Cookie once more for we all can't get enough of these two! Our event started with a fun Lala-loopsy Movie; to watch this fun Lalaloopsy movie plus my show opening, please follow this link below:

There were so many sweet treats that day, but for me the sweetest was finally meeting the beautiful Ms. Melissa Costales in person! Thanks Ms. Mel and Sir Joseph for the sweetest treat ever! What a pleasant surprise! Check out my awesome dolls below! I am in Lala-love with them! 

 The place was packed! Check out our gang at Galleria who came to see Peanut Big Top and Crumbs Sugar Cookie dance and give away a ton of prizes.. and while you are at it, spot me in my red top and white bonnet too, if you can... 

Thank you so much, Bankee Trading Corporation and Robinsons Galleria for hosting this memorable  Meet & Greet party! I am so happy to be part of this. All the kids (myself included) will never forget this day! So much Lala-love!

Lots of Lala-love to everyone! Thanks for dropping by and I hope to see you again for Day # 3 of the Lalaloopsiest party ever! Have a Lalaloopsy, Lala-Merry Christmas! Please click on my other sites below too...

Congratulations and Love to Elburg Ship Management Philippines!

No words can truly express my admiration for Ms. Procerfina Terrei, the lovely Chairman of the Board of one of the country's top ship manning conglomerates - Elburg Philippines. She also heads the International Maritime Academy, and also Augustea Ship Manning Philippines as she guides Augustea's President (her beautiful daughter and truly a wonderful friend), Grace Labrusca. Click Here for Related Post: Augustea Philippines 2nd Annual Crew Conference (Year 2015)  and while you are at it, check the first-ever Augustea Conference here too: Augustea Philippines First Crew Conference (Year 2014) honored was I to be the master of ceremonies for her 50th birthday bash at the Manila Peninsula... Here she is, looking all young, but a proud grandma, as she dotes on the kids of her nieces and nephews...

I was also very glad to meet the legendary Mr. Jimmy Santos - one of the most famous comedians in the country. Who needs Alden Richards when you have this funny, talented and humble celebrity in your party who truly livened up the already exciting night! He and the Chairman of Elburg, Ms. Procerfina Terrei are childhood friends... 

And so now, we fast forward to the gist of this post: The 8th Annual Crew Conference of Elburg Ship Management Philippines held at the Blue Leaf Pilipinas, City of Dreams Manila. For this very special occasion, I tried to go for some High Seas Fashion: Check out my "Pirate-slash-Corporate" look below. Certainly, this photo below is all about what Elburg Philippines is about: ONE CREW, ONE HORIZON... 

 Ahoy Mates! My Pirate Queen pose as I stand beside one of the hard-working and promising young cadets of Elburg Ship Management Philippines that day... 

 Through this conference, we became abreast with the latest trends in the Maritime Industry, project implementation status and of course worldwide industry news straight from the distinguished Elburg Group principals... 

I am still elated over the honor of emceeing for this year's Elburg Ship Management Philippines Crew Conference, on its 8th year, and my 2nd time to emcee for them. I learned so much from this event too!

Now spot me if you can in this sea of happy seafarers, maritime experts and our other distinguished guests... a group photo before the conference closes and we head on to the exciting evening gala... 

We all enjoyed a (naughty) gala party after, where I seriously got drunk after 2 shots (of I don't even know what)! Forgive the bad lighting but do know that we all had so much fun! Kisses to Grace, Richelle, Juliet, Madame Procy, and the rest of the wonderful Terrei family and the Elburg group!

Photos below are all thanks to our dearest Anj from Creative Impact Inc. They are a superb events and creatives company! To learn more about them, click this link and visit their website at www.creativeimpactinc.com

And lastly, that night I was able to receive a very special pendant from Lowanna Philippines - thanks so much, Liza, for this beautiful cross pendant; still shopping for the chain that will match this twinkly pendant perfectly so for now this charm is kept in a very special place in my jewellery collection and in my heart!

Smooth sailing at Augustea Philippines' Second Annual Crew Conference

Congratulations to Augustea Ship Manning Philippines for a Successful second Crew Conference!

Truly an honour to be the master of ceremonies for the 2nd annual crew conference of Augustea Ship Manning Philippines, Inc. and being their emcee last year for their first-ever conference makes my heart grow with gratitude! 

The most heartfelt thanks go to the company's wise and beautiful president and now one of my good friends and a lady I find so beautiful inside and out, Ms. Grace Labrusca Terrei and to the rest of the wonderful Terrei family and staff, for trusting me to be master of ceremony for the second consecutive year! I had so much fun and learned a lot from you all.

This photo above is all thanks to Anj Pantaleon of Creative Impact. Like the Official Facebook Page of CreativeImpact Inc. today! Wow, where do I even begin? There were so many highlights for that day, and everything was simply perfect! I was pleasurable to note that just like Elburg Philippines, also managed by the same exceptional Terrei family, Augustea Ship Manning Philippines also brings the same quality of crew management. Indeed, our modern-day heroes, our Seafarers, or should I say Seafare-Heroes are in the best hands with Augustea. 

Pre-event Pretty. Before the event I had to pose with some of my bosses for that day. Flanked by the eloquent and charming Juliet Terrei, Director of Augustea and of course the beautiful President, Grace.

This conference was the venue to update the crew and staff on latest trends about the ever-changing and prevailing Maritime industry, to share the company status, efforts to give service to seafarers, and most importantly - to hear the feedback of our modern-day heroes on how Augustea can serve them and their families better. Serving them better meant giving their kids scholarships too... here was one of the blessed recipients that night, during our ball! 

Yup, Augustea knows how to have fun too for right after the fruitful conference, we had a fun ball! Music, dancing, great food and drinks were served for everyone to enjoy and celebrate this momentous day! To learn more about them, please visit The Official Website of Augustea Ship Manning Philippines.

Another Dream comes alive at the Sky Life Dreamland...

"Don't dream your life away... Live out your dreams each day..." 

Yes, I can say that this wonderful adage truly applies to my life now. While I am far away from my ultimate dream, I can say that I am truly living my dream - as a professional events host - all thanks to wonderful people who believe in me, especially my beautiful Ms. Chrissy Cabellero and the rest of the wonderful SkyLife heads! Click this link for my video clip: opening this Sky-riffic event: Marylaine Viernes Youtube Channel - SKYLIFE Event Opening

I will forever be thankful for the faith entrusted to me, especially in our latest event: SKYLIFE DREAMLAND, The Adventure Continues! Please like the page tolearn more about the event and to be part of more Sky's future events, please like and follow this link: SkyLife Dreamland Facebook Page. 

I LAB You. I truly LAB what I do as host and I especially loved The Lab! I enjoyed this awesome new booth for there were so many new things I learned here, and am certain that all the kids LAB this corner too!

Hostperimentation. That's when the event host tries out the super cool experiments & inventions! 

Backstage with the Gang - the talented team from Alice in Wonderland! Mad Hatter, the Cheshire Cat, the Queen of Hearts and the lovely Alice! We all went crazy over this cool quartet!

This event is for the kids and kids-at-heart who believe in the beauty of our dreams! But what makes this event special is that this is also about honing those little dreamers through exciting experiences that enhance problem-solving skills, critical thinking, EQ and other important tools that will help us all when finally, the roads to our dreams open! 

It was my honour to host and play games with the mums, dads and kids, and somehow help them believe in magic! The winners weren't just the kids onstage who won big prizes, but everyone who came for there were tons of freebies! 

Thank you Sky Life, for your faith and generosity in letting me live out one of my biggest passions and dreams as an events host. I pray for more adventures to come with you and your awesome event organizer, Global Visions Events in the next year! 

Photo below grabbed from the official SkyLife Dreamland Facebook page...

From Queen Elsa back to Cinderella. Lastly, here I am again, back to the cinders of real life thank you for allowing me to transform whenever I emcee for each mesmerizing event! Each event with Sky Life is a dream come true! Below is my pre-event "in-rags" poor Miss Cinderella look... Lovin' how I am able to live out my very own fairy tale!

A sweet treat. Right after the fun and exhilarating party, cheers to Maya for treating the kids and kids at heart (like me) to cheery cupcakes that brought out our creativity! Can you spot the colors of Christmas?

"Let your dreams be greater than your fears, and your actions louder than your words... may we all let Faith in God, Gratitude and Persistence lead us all to where we ought to be..."

A Whale of a time plunging "In the Heart of the Sea..."

I've been swimming through the powerful imagery after this awesome movie experience, thanks to Warner Brothers Philippines! Watching this big screen adaptation of a true life story in IMAX made all the more AmaSEAng!

The story takes place back in 1819 at Nantucket, Massachusetts as first mate, Owen Chase (played by Chris Hemsworth, kudos to the impeccable casting) tries to chase after his dream of finally being captain only to be thwarted as one of the sponsors of the Essex installs Captain George Pollard, Jr. Politics comes in between the two men - the former being the one with the skill and experience, while the latter earning his laurels by blood relation. So the warring duo and their crew set sail in one of the greatest journeys in history... and atrocity. 

Witnessing the journey was indeed mesmerising; giving us viewers a solid firsthand account of how it must have been on that harrowing whale-hunting journey aboard the Essex. Scene to scene there was always something gripping but yet, even if this awesome movie walked us through this wonderful journey back in time - there were still enigmas that really leaves the creative mind curious - that is why I still ponder about the whale, what it must be thinking when it devised the plan; could there be more to it than this, and what wonders, really does the seas hold from the rest of the world? 

You cannot afford to miss this exhilarating tale and for sure you won't miss this tail... 

And from one masterpiece to the next, this movie also gave light to how Herman Melville was inspired to write one of the greatest classics of all time, Moby Dick. Have a whale of a weekend with your family by watching this movie! And while you are at it, here are some fun facts: 

1. A sperm whale (such as the not-so-mythical albino one known as Moby Dick) owns up to the scientific name, "physeter macrocephalus." This defines exactly how sperm whales look! 
2. Whales continue to be targets of hunters primarily because of oil and ambergris, substances with high demand to this date. (Oh I wish we can find substitutes to these and lessen whaling efforts).
3. Sperm whales are vocal and through echolocation, they are able to determine the location, size and shape of their target.

The dazzling Colours of Christmas bursting at Robinsons Place Lipa!

A bedazzled Christmas to all! Here I am with the kid-beneficiaries of Robinsons Place Lipa, for another Christmas Mall Lighting and Holiday kick-off party!

As happy as can be. Christmas is in the air, in all Robinsons Malls!

It truly is bright and merry at Robinsons, with their exceptional holiday theme, "One Dazzling Christmas at Robinsons Malls!" Found myself screaming like the girls who packed the place and are smitten with this teen heartthrob and guest for that day, Miguel Tanfelix! Watch him dance in my videos below, and for sure - even if you are old enough to be his mom (like little old me) - you will surely scream and fall for this promising and extremely talented young star too... 

Marylaine Viernes hosts for Robinsons Place Lipa Christmas Launch with celebrity guest, Miguel Tanfelix (Youtube Video)

Apart from the total star factor - this affair boasted of grand lights and sights! But at the heart of it all was a testament to what Christmas is all about - sharing our blessings and caring for those who need our aid the most. 

CON you see me? In this blast of CONFETTI, see if you can still spot me... 

The Joy of Sharing & Gift-giving. Thank you Robinsons Malls for giving delight to all these kids, and of course to everyone else who were part of this party! 

But probably, the most blessed part of this wonderful and unforgettable affair was the chance to pass by this lovely chapel in Lipa, near the Robinsons Mall... thank you Lord for your immense blessings!
