Wazzup Pilipinas!

Gathering over hundreds of participants across the country, building intact and sustainable rapport among our attendees all the while instilling values and qualities of an ideal leader, this year’s Governors’ Leadership Training Summit has marked another preeminent event in our journey as we pursue to cross more and more borders. Held last October 24 – 26 at the very scenic and sheltered Camp Benjamin, Alfonso, Cavite.

GOLTS 2014, with this year’s theme “TURBULENCE: Building a Leader’s Success Amid Challenges” assembled over hundreds of participants who took part in a 3-day Hunger Games-inspired training summit. This enabled our participants in sourcing their inner Katniss and Peeta as they went through different challenges and on-hand leadership drills.

Ballet Philippines Presents Alice Reyes' Cinderella: All Set to Open on November 28

Wazzup Pilipinas!

Some would say fairy tales like Cinderella were based from real stories. Just like in real life, there would always be a hero, a villain and a damsel in distress. But unlike in real life, fairy tales would normally end in happy endings. From a pauper becoming a prince, to an ordinary town's girl becoming a princess, many are stories ending with a life of grandeur, being rich beyond our wildest dreams, or marrying our true beloved or prince charming.

Fairy tales leaves us hoping for a better tomorrow. That someday our prince will come and will sweep us away into his luxurious castle. That someday we'll find our prince that will wake us from a deep slumber, or will bring us back to life after a poisonous encounter, or will rescue us from our wicked stepmother and stepsisters.

But wait! Fairy tales are not only for the women. Men also dream of meeting the right person who will love them beyond their physical appearance, may they be looking like a beast or a hunchback. Men also look for the right woman who would really love them even though they don't have a genie that can make all their wishes come true. Every man would love to find that woman whose foot would perfectly fit in the glass slipper. The glass slipper being our expectations of the perfect woman.

Indeed, we all love to experience a fairy tale life that ends in a happy ending. The good news is that Ballet Philippines is once again presenting another performance that will literally sweep us off our feet as we follow every move of their dancers who will be performing in Alice Reyes' Cinderella starting with a gala night presentation on November 28, 2014 at 8 pm at the Tanghalang Nicanor Abelardo of the Cultural Center of the Philippines. It will be the closest that we will ever get to a fairy tale.
