Eugene Domingo is PETA's BONA

-
Eugene Domingo's popularity both as a TV actress and movie star is undeniable.  Every Filipino, young or old, knows Eugene because of her movies that are box-office hits for their entertainment quality.  I cannot forget the first movie of Eugene that I watched, Kimi Dora.  The plot is really simple and common, but Eugene's deadpan portrayal of her characters is just funny and totally hilarious.  I tried not to miss the chance to see "Ang Babae sa Septic Tank," an indie film that also earned Eugene many awards and brought her fame, both here and abroad.



Eugene took a hiatus from theater and concentrated in other projects in tv and the movies but her real ticket to entering the world of acting is theater.  And now, she made a comeback through the classic Lino Brocka film 'Bona'.   PETA's Bona is set in current times where Bona is more empowered and have a stronger spirit. The story line is the same, but the situations and circumstances leading to the climax are somewhat  modified to suit the more current setting of the play.   The basic plot of Bona obssessing over her idol, Gino Sanchez (played by Edgar Allan Guzman) who eventually dumps Bona for a starlet is not missing.   You should not miss the return of Uge to theater via Bona and see Eugene's  take of Nora Aunor's Bona.





Bona will run until September 23, 2012 at The PETA Theater Center
No.5 Eymard Drive, New Manila.

Circle of Fun is the Latest attraction in Quezon City Memorial Circle

I was in Quezon Memorial Circle this afternoon and I chanced upon this mini amusement center currently being constructed inside the big Quezon City landmark.  This new attraction at the QCMC showcases thrilling rides like the Wild Wind.  This is actually like the Space Shuttle of Enchanted Kingdom in Santa Rosa, Laguna.  It is a modified form of the traditional roller-coaster.  There are also rides for the little ones like the usual water bump cars.  And the horror rides which I will dare not ride because I do not have the kind of heart that can withstand intense fear.   While I laud the Quezon City government for this endeavor of providing a small amusement park for the residents of Quezon City so that they do not have to go all the way to Star City or Enchanted Kingdom to be able to experience the different rides, I can't help but feel dismayed over the changes in the scenery inside the memorial.  I frequented the place way, way back when I lived near UP Campus to en

Astig ang ATV sa Mt. Mayon!

    One of the reasons that tourists go to Mt. Mayon in droves is the ATV Adventure.   This activity allows tourists to go to the foot of Mt.  Mayon and see the beauty of this great lady up close by means of an all-terrain vehicle.  Up there, visitors can also enjoy the view of the city of Legaspi.  They can also savor the scent of the clean mountain air and get lots and lots of photographs amid the verdant background.  ATV stands for all-terrain vehicle.  This transportation is especially built to enable riders to get past all kinds of terrain , may it be rough, rocky, watery, sandy, muddy, hilly, etc.  It is basically automatic, but it also has gears (I wouldn't know when to use them, if you ask me.)    Before I started my three-hour drive to the foot of Mt. Mayon, I had a quick dry-run just to test if the machine was working well.  Also I made sure that  I was wearing all the necessary gears to keep me safe and unharmed throughout the entire adventure like helmet, etc.

Get a load of the dramatic Zambales sunset at Bakasyunan sa Baybay Dagat. Bakasyunan sa Baybay Dagat is located at Barrio Amungan in Iba, Zambales about 4 hours drive from Manila. Bakasyunan is amazing since its waters were never deep and always lukewarm, that you always want to submerge yourself under them. You can go as far as 300 meters from the shore but not fear you'd drown. This is a view of the sea at Zambales. It is kept clean by a regular beach clean-up. Aside from swimming in the beach, visitors can amuse themselves at the many recreational facilities that Bakasyunan offers. One of them is the fishing lagoon. Visitors can also try putting at this mini-golf-course. Or try a volleyball game or two. And take a quick dip in the inviting pool, anytime of the day. Bakasyunan in Zambales has facilities that would accomodate everyone from all walks of life. Like this medium-sized hut which is ideal for families. And smaller huts which is good for smaller groups or couples. Th
