Happy 116th Philippines Independence Day

Independence Day (Filipino: Araw ng Kasarinlan; also Araw ng Kalayaan, lit. "Day of Freedom") is an annual national holiday in the Philippines observed on 12 June, commemorating the Philippine Declaration of Independence from Spain on 12 June 1898. It is the country's National Day. read more.

Took this photo at Luneta Park in Manila, I remember I was there during the 100th Centennial Philippines Independence Day that was 1998, I was one of the Girls Scout of the Philippines who participated during the event in gradeschool.

So when I had a chance to dropped by at Luneta Park where you can see the monument of our National Hero, Jose Rizal, hats off and paid respect to our National Flag that symbolizes the Freedom that we gained from the countries that invaded Philippines.

I Salute! However, there's still a question that some can and some can't answer with one word: 

"Are we truly free?"

 

Happy 116th Philippines Independence Day to all Filipinos!

MABUHAY!

Ang sarap maging Pilipino :)

Hyper Cebu: A Lifestyle Bazaar

Hyper – A word that describes the exuberance of a person; to be high-strung and excitable and everything in between.

Over the years, Cebu has evolved and adapted to the changes that the Queen City of the South has gone through. We have become a melting pot of different cultures. We, in itself, have become a lifestyle. Music. Fashion. Food. Gadgets. Travel. It's all in Cebu and it's all going to be at Hyper Cebu. We're hitting five birds with one stone and bringing it even closer to home, right into the heart of the Metro, at the Baseline.

HyperCebu in its humblest nature is a charity event. HyperCebu partnered with iLearnersCebu Organization to fight rural illiteracy one child a t a time.

Established and stabilized by the JCI Cebu Inc. and strengthened by the commitment of the of Hyper Cebu Volunteers (Members of the young and dynamic students, young professionals and the media practitioners of the metropolis), Hyper Cebu will celebrate the Cebuano lifestyle and will merge everything and everyone together whether you’re a hyper foodie, a hyper fashionista, a hyper techie, a hyper traveler or a hyper musician. For 36 hours, starting on May 31 and lasting till June 1, the Cebuano lifestyle and all that it entails will be celebrated and there will be no barriers.

Each ticket will include a hyper pin. This will give individuals their brand during the Hyper Event. Either they are a #HyperFoodie, #HyperTechie, #HyperMusician, #HyperFashionista, #HyperTraveller or simply a #HyperCebuano.

A Lifestyle Bazaar, a Weekend Food Market and an activity area, to be used as a Family Zone during the day and turned into a rave pit of awesome once the sun sets, will be the highlights of the event with a few surprises in store for the whole duration of Hyper Cebu.

Hyper Cebu is more than just a party. It's a celebration of everything we are and everything we are proud of, something truly Cebuano. Something that can get us hyped up.

Now. ARE YOU HYPER CEBU?
