Outbreak Manila 2: The Zombies Take Over Fort Bonifacio
by Cheryl Villareal on Aug 1st, 2012
A few months ago, an outbreak of flesh eating zombies was witnessed in Nuvali, Laguna. There were several survivors, but also a lot of casualties. Last July 28, these zombies returned for round 2. This time however, they picked one of the busiest and famous places to feast – at Fort Bonifacio Taguig. To make things even worse, the zombie attack happened at 6pm. The darkness was their ally. Last July 28, over 7,000 runners faced horde...Read More » Tags Share Comments (3 )

Clay Art in Preschool: Other Ways to Play with Clay
by Cheryl Villareal on Jul 15th, 2012
Clay… Playdough… noodles….these are just some of the many “toys” kids like to play with that really tap several skills all at once! With clay they get to practice their fine motor skills, their imagination, their creativity and so much more! Last summer, another activity Ayala Museum did was Clay Art by Jose Joya. It’s really simple and easy to do! This post isn’t really like my usual tutorials, this really is just some...Read More » Tags Share Comments (1 )

Light Thursdays: Good People, Good Music, Great Stories
by Cheryl Villareal on Jul 14th, 2012
This post may be totally unrelated to my blog… but I thought to share it anyway. Last Thursday, I had one of the best experiences in a while. I laughed… I cried…but most importantly, I was moved. What was meant to be an ordinary Thursday evening turned out to be an evening of blessings, realizations and life lessons. Many of you might not know this as I rarely speak of it, but I am a firm believer o...Read More » Tags Share Comments (3 )

Life Just Got Sweeter with Bar Dolci
by Cheryl Villareal on Jul 7th, 2012
When out with friends, we often look for cool places to just chill and relax. Most of the time, we end up in coffee shops sipping the usual Frappuccino's and lattes. Don’t get me wrong, I LOVE LOVE coffee shops, but I also love diversity! It’s fun to try something new every once in a while. That’s why I’m so happy to have discovered Bar Dolci along Burgos Circle. If you know me then you'd also know I am not a fan of...Read More » Tags Share Comments (1 )

Puncher Pointillism at Ayala Museum
by Cheryl Villareal on Jun 22nd, 2012
From April to May, the Ayala Museum held a bunch of art workshops for the kids. One of these focused on George Seurat’s famous pointillism art! I love how complex and simple this activity can be! So before the actual art activity, a brief intro about George Seurat and pointillism was given. From wikipedia: Pointillism is a technique of painting in which small, distinct dots of pure color are applied in patterns to form an im...Read More » Tags Share Comments (5 )

Stage Camp Here Right Now…. and Forever After
by Cheryl Villareal on Jun 3rd, 2012
2 months ago, I had no idea where the Manansala Towers were, I had no idea who Topper Fabregas and Anthony Ong were, and most of all, I had no idea how to sing and dance. Though I still think I can’t sing and dance (haha), I can at least be proud to say that I took the challenge with 32 others at last night’s showcase of HERE RIGHT NOW…. and we did it! No matter what you say or think, we were GREAT out there! In a span of 7 wee...Read More » Tags Share Comments (0 )

YouTube Sensations, Jayesslee Visits the Philippines on June 21, 2012
by Cheryl Villareal on May 27th, 2012
I don’t know about you but I really enjoy listening to several YouTube artists more than the famous artists with their record labels. Maybe it’s because it’s more natural? Maybe because most of them are REALLY talented by heart! All I know is, YouTube sensations like Jason Chen, Joseph Vincent, AJ Raphael, David Choi are really good and I love them! Another YouTube sensation which I’m sure most of you know are the adorable Korean/ Austral...Read More » Tags Share Comments (0 )

Finding Myself in 9 Works Theatrical’s Stage Camp
by Cheryl Villareal on May 23rd, 2012
"Why do you sound that way?" "You're out of tune!" "You dance like a crazy horse" I've loved theater for the longest time. I love acting and just going crazy on stage. One of my favorite roles was playing a crazy lawyer with cerebral palsy in my college years. It was so challenging but I had the best time doing it! I've been in and out of theater since I was young, and my love for it never died down. After years of just missi...Read More » Tags Share Comments (3 )
