Moonleaf Tea Shop Celebrates 1st Anniversary

Wazzup Pilipinas!

We congratulate Moonleaf Tea Shop The Columns Sen. Gil Puyat, Makati branch on its first year anniversary.

Special acoustic song numbers from guest performers namely Ebe Dancel, LM Cancio and Ai Dela Cruz, made the occasion livelier, and a photo-booth allowed the guests to bring home souvenir photos of themselves.

"The Caramel Milk Tea is the  bestseller, but the Hakka, Vanilla, and Wintermelon all earn raves from  bloggers. The house milk tea is sweet, simple, and refreshing."

I specifically like the Oolong and Wintermelon Milk Teas - my all-time favorites and I believe of almost everyone else of my friends. But don't let that stop you from experimenting on the other flavors and maybe you'll discover a new favorite of your own.

Wazzup Pilipinas!

Iktus was declared as the grand winner of the Sun Broadband Quest last night, July 12, 2013 held at the Music Museum in Greenhills, San Juan.

Iktus was originally "Icthus" which was the Greek word for "fish" mainly because the fish ius a symbol of Christianity. The band believed that the name is catchy and truly tunog-Pinoy. Iktus is composed of Carissa Panaligan (lead vocalist) and Andrei Panaligan (bass), Andrew Panaligan (drums) (hhhmmm brothers and sisters??) and Augusto Mendoza (guitar)- all hailing from the Colegio De San Juan De Letran from Calamba. The group was formed last 2005 and has already won several awards in the many band competitions they have joined throughout the years.

The band finds inspiration in both local and foreign bands like Rivermaya, Silent Sanctuary, Sugarfree, Itchyworms, Urbandub, Flyleaf, Paramore, Switchfoot and Run Kid Run.

Artemis: The Golden Arrow

Wazzup Pilipinas!

Of all the Greek gods and goddess I chose Artemis. A quick info on her background, her father was the most powerful god Zeus; but on the other hand, her mother was only a mortal named Leto. She was the first born of Leto's twins, where her twin brother was the Olympian god Apollo. Right after her birth, she immediately showed a capability of helping in giving child-birth to her younger brother.

As she grows, she develops more skills with her brother specially in the art of archery. But they had also discovered unique abilities that other does not have. She has a deep connection with the nature around her; the wildernness, and the animals. She also protects the women, helps in childbirthn and represents virginity of women. Using her archery skills she developed, she enjoyed the hunting of animals which she also protects, giving her the tilte "The Goddess of the Hunt". She allows hunters to hunt animals only at her command.

I chose her because she acts the same as a mother to everyone.She also allows anything done to an extent and duration. As one of the three virgin goddesses, she cares for the welfare of women and is heavily against violence against women. She also shows a sense of responsibility a mother should have though she hadn't gave birth to any chldren. She shows patience in every actions and tolerates misdeeds but still sentences with the proper punishments.
