Mabuhay Fiesta at the Mabuhay Restop : Showcasing Filipino Ingenuity at Its Best!

 
Wazzup Pilipinas!

I never expected it would be that great!  I really thought the Manila Vanilla could no longer be surpassed by other performances at the Mabuhay Restop but the surprising showcase of talents performed alone by the charming star of the show was all that we needed to make our night a very memorable one.

Most of my friends were actually there after an event that recognized Wazzup Pilipinas as one of the Top Ten Emerging Influential Blogs of 2013 as presented by Digital Filipino of Miss Janette Toral. This made the event at the Mabuhay Restop an after-event Victory Party to celebrate our win.

It was incidental that the night was very special for us, and the presentation of the new show called "Mabuhay Fiesta" made our night truly complete.

An Event that is Worth Remembering

 Wazzup Pilipinas!

August is the month when Filipinos celebrate an event called Buwan ng Wika. In our school, it is well celebrated every year. It is like conducting a barangay fiesta inside our school. Students are allowed to bring Lutong ulam. Everyone is wearing their chosen Filipino outfit. And contests related to Buwan ng Wika is managed.

One of these contests is Pamilyang Pilipino wherein a guest will enter each and every classroom to see whether which classroom shows how hospitable Filipinos are.

Another is the Pickup Line wherein contestant, a representative of every class, will pick a word and give its Banat Line for the person at the middle. The contestant with the most convincing words will win.

Alfa Sings at Le Cafe Curieux

Wazzup Pilipinas!


When I received an invite to attend the very first singing engagement of Alfa I already made a pre-event write-up about her at http://www.wazzuppilipinas.com/2013/09/alfa-one-night-in-makati.html. I also decided to embed some videos from her YouTube account on the article so I could also preview how she sings.

I was so starstruck because her voice was really dreamy! and her beauty was angel-like. I could say that she also has a very pleasing personality when we finally met her in person during her gig at the Le Cafe Curieux, a French bar and restaurant in Makati.This performance at Le Cafe Curieux was to be the first among her series of gigs around the country.

When we heard her sing live, she was even a lot better in person! Too bad the weather was not that cooperative! It rained during her performance but we considered it a blessing sent from above.

I was also surprised seeing her during the PHILTOA Philippine Travel Mart event where the Tourism Promotions Board of the Department of Tourism also invited her to perform. That was where we had a second opportunity for a photo ops.
