A Lala-mazing afternoon hosting another Lala-lovely Lalaloopsy Meet & Greet Party!

So happy to put on my bright scarlet wig and wiggle and dance for another Lalaloopsy Meet & Greet party, as part of the Robinsons Malls' Character Festival 2016! Yes, so glad was I to once more be little Miss Twist E' Twirls of Lalaloopsy Land! Good times! 
This is another gig I got under the Robinsons Malls Character Festival 2016 campaign, and before I tell you more about my Lalaloopsy Land Adventure, I would first like to share my glee that the best part about the Robinsons Character Festival was that my lovely younger sister too got to host a few of her own events under this awesome festival! Please visit Miss Natalie's blog by clicking the links that follow below: 
Isn't she lovely? I dub her, Ms. Pikachu 2016! Here is my sister Nate, a budding weekend events host and blogger along with our childhood buddy and former neighbor, Nico, with of course, cute and sweet Pikachu! We can never get enough of this Pokemon! 
Yes as I try to be a good big sister, I managed to actually help my sister find hosting gigs (she has a superb speaking voice too, and quite a mesmerising onstage presence to boot). And apart from her hosting gigs, she also blogs! Her blog showcases three categories representing the main umbrella of her passions: EVENTS, FOOD and TRAVEL. Please keep visiting her blog site at www.takeitfromnate.wordpress.com 
Now going back to me and my adventures in Lalaloopsy Land, below are a few of my video clips, sharing stories and smiles with the kids: 
Plus more snaps follow below... Here I am with my Lalaloopsy buddies, Peanut Big Top and Crumbs Sugar Cookie! 
 Tons of stories to tell when you're in Lalaloopsy Land! 
And the best part after was the Toys R Us shopping right after! Every moment here was made with Magic and Love...

Very happy to host the Meet & Greet party for Sylvanian Families!

I am just so happy to finally emcee a Sylvanian Families party! I've always marvelled at just how cute these toys are! Part of the Robinsons Malls Character Festival 2016, is this awesome meet and greet spectacular featuring Chocolate Rabbit and Walnut Squirrel! All of the kids (and yours truly, for I am a kid-at-heart) had a blast and even gladly lined up for two rounds of this meet and greet! 
This was defi-NUT-ly a fun day, meeting Walnut Squirrel who came and giggled along with Chocolate Rabbit Mummy! So sad I wasn't able to take a lot of photos, but I can truly say that I had tons of fun and excitement during this special Sylvanian day!

On the wings of love: Hosting the special night of #Jidine2016

A big, big thank you to my beloved Global Visions Events family for once again trusting me, this time for another inspiring wedding celebration... for the memorable night of #Jidine2016 ! 
 Congratulations to this good-looking couple, Jiro and Nadine! Stay happy & in love!
Oh to be young and in love... that's the magical story of Jiro and Nadine, or together, #Jidine who shares one smart and handsome young boy already, Nicolo, and who humbly shared the ups and downs of their young romance, and finally be able to walk the aisle this memorable day... But their love story is only for them to tell, but as for me, let me share with you the breathtaking setting where this wondrous wedding was set all thanks to superb events group, Global Visions Events! 
I am not the only one taking selfies before the grand ceremony... everyone fell in love with this glorious scenery in Batangas, overlooking the Taal Volcano! Loved how I got to come in a laid-back dress and majorly chill sandals as I led the festivities! 
Truly amazing personalized wedding styling... Every facet of the event area was perfect! Down to the smallest of details... Truly glad to see all the love and beauty in this very special night... 
 Doing my thing... sadly, no video taken this night, but I certainly had fun and was simply honored to be part of this solemn ceremony... Again, the styling by GVE was just divine!

Getting ready for my cup of tea... so thankful to be part of this highly-attended Smart Parenting Mom Workshops, with our theme, All About Toddlers! Please press the PLAY button below to check out my video clip below as I hosted this phenomenal mom-affair: 
It surely was an exciting and enriching day... we had an amazing lineup of speakers, from nutrition experts, career gurus, beauty & wellness speakers and even an awesome and entertaining book author - storyteller! It was such a multi-faceted activity... 
Everyone went home happy and inspired! With a ton of loot to mention, too! As in most of my events, it was a meeting of friends old and new... 
And of course, the lovely Ms. Berns Lazo and Ms. Aiza Amadar, two of the wonderful people representing one of my favourite brands as a mom and frustrated-interior-designer-wannabe (give me a few years and I will get there...) Giant Carrier for my son, the one brand I love and trust - super affordable, functional and stylish... then for my home of course, HOME SUITE, My Choice, no less! I am in love with my comfy Bunny Easy Chair! Relaxes me and helps me write better. I also love curling up in it during rainy days as a I watch a nice movie on my laptop!

A blast hosting for Summit Media's first ever Mommy Bloggers Workshop!

Again my heart brims with joy and gratitude for the many opportunities to live out my passion as an events host, meet wonderful people and learn in the process! Thanks, Good Housekeeping Philippines for yet another thrilling experience! This was held at the Eastwood Richmonde Hotel... 
I got to be master of ceremonies for Good Housekeeping Magazine's first-ever Mommy Bloggers Workshop, and did I learn so much and have so much fun! And of course, to keep our ceremonies alive, I just had to keep those corny jokes crackin' along... (hey I continue to book hosting gigs thanks to my crazy jokes)... here's a video if you please... 
And of course, a snap with the lovely mommy bloggers in attendance...

Who's that Pokemon? Having a blast hosting Pikachu's Meet & Greet Party!

I've always loved watching the Pokemon series as a child, and in fact my favourites then, Squirtle, Charmander and Gengar remain as my favourites up until today! But of course, the world's most favourite Pokemon, and the main character in the series, sweet and loyal Pikachu, took centerstage in the much-awaited Pokemon Meet & Greet shows, as part of the Robinsons Malls 2016 Character Festival! I had fun playing and posing with Pikachu as much as I loved hosting this!  
 Are you ready, P? Pikachu says hello; she can't wait to meet all of you! 
 What are you whispering in my ear, Pikachu? Oh yes, that it's time to play games and give out prizes? It's Pika-Trivia Time! 
 These kids were more than ready... in fact they know the answers to all my Poke-Trivia questions! 
With my love, Godric Matthew, who was first in line... I was just as excited as he was! 
 The cool Pokemon photo wall with Ash Ketchum! 
 My love, Godric Matthew and the other kids there were like, "Mom, can we take him home? Please, please, please?"
But do you know what the best part of the 2016 Robinsons Malls Character Festival is? It's that my beloved sister, Natalie, was also able to emcee for someone of our many events! Here's she is also hosting for the Pokemon Meet & Greet Party with Pikachu at another Robinsons Mall! Please also visit and follow her blog: natefridayblog.wordpress.com

Ice Age: for kids of every age! My Ice Age Collision Course Movie Review

Look what I've unearthed... a movie ticket fossil... my ticket to this year's greatest animated big screen adventure!  
Loved that cool Saturday morning where the gang and I all trooped to the Greenbelt Cinemas for another COOL-ision: the Ice Age Collision Course Movie Premiere! Forever thankful to the lovely Ms. Mae Vecina of Warner Brothers & 20th Century Fox Philippines, and of course their wonderful and kind President, Mr. Francis Soliven for the awesome invites and amazing big screen adventures!

As always, silly Scrat causes another chaotic course that sets the Ice Age gang, led by monolithic mammoth, Manny and his family (nuclear and extended to include the other species) into one chilly-thrilling ride! You would have to watch this for yourselves to learn more about the escapades that the movie lets its viewers all walk through. But let me just tell you the reasons why you need to watch this with your squad!

1. It is all about Family - Indeed, as what resonated in the past Ice Age film instalments, this movie is all about Family and about how tough it is to survive the cold, hard, icy (literally) world without those whom we can stand on for support. I love how Manny continues to be the main mammoth, the rock of the crew, steering them all towards safety, even if at times, he too would find himself at the brink of fear and uncertainty. 
2. It's a SCRATASTROPHIC Adventure - whenever I see Scrat, chasing after his acorn, I know that trouble is not too far away! Yes, I love those Ice Age trailers; they excite me as I wait for the next Ice Age movies to be launched. Ok, so Scrat can sometimes be so annoying, but then life would be boring without him and his acorn. But hey, what would Ice Age movies (or life for that matter) be without struggles and downfalls? What matters is how we pick ourselves up and save the day in our own little way... together as a family! Check out Space-Scrat who was the movie screening's VIP guest!
3. Just Let it Go... You'd really have to watch this awesome family movie to understand what I mean, but this movie is all about learning to love and accept one another for our quirks, differences and preferences. Sometimes, we lose our cool and be all ICY whenever we meet those who challenge our views and 'break the ice' that surrounds our comfort zones... indeed this movie is all just letting go, and just being... who you are and who you can be! It is all about loving, respecting and accepting one another, knowing that each of us hold a potential in our hands, and maybe sometimes it has to take a tough situation like the end of the Ice Age world, for us to discover that... 
I absolutely loved ICE AGE: COLLISION COURSE and you will to! Catch it at your favourite movie theatres before the ICE melts...
