From Manila to the Land of Promise. The Mad Mad World of the Binays. The Society of Honor by Joe America. Photo Source: Inquirer] From time to time in a blog, I elaborate. Embellish. Is elaboration fact? No, it is elaboration, similar to the way an editorial cartoonist draws caricatures to make a point. So in today’s article, I align some words to embellish . . . and make a point or two. No harm intended. No foul. 2,145 more words. This entry was posted in Uncategorized. Leave a Reply Cancel reply.

Musical Mania | third world traveler
https://kwenivarga.wordpress.com/2010/08/20/musical-mania
Imagination's all it takes. I was so sad that the musical Cats had already finished its run here in Manila and I didn’t get to see it. It was doubly exciting because our very own Lea Salonga was playing Griselda. Lea, who won a Tony Award for her part in Miss Saigon, is very much loved and adored in the Philippines. She is also very popular in the world of broadway because of her exceptional talent. Les Misérables, The Phantom of the Opera, Chicago, Mamma Mia! Miss Saigon, Jesus Christ Superstar, Evita,.

Divine Destination | third world traveler
https://kwenivarga.wordpress.com/2010/08/20/divine-destination
Imagination's all it takes. Growing up in a coastal town, I do have this strong connection with the sea. Whenever I see pictures of breathtaking blue waters and inviting coastlines, it certainly feels like home. I can almost instantly hear and feel the breeze and even taste the salty air. And boy, do I love singing! Which is why Mama Mia is among my most favourite films. I must admit there’s still a lot of places that I have yet to explore in my own country. However, it has also been a dream of mine ...

Mystery and the City | third world traveler
https://kwenivarga.wordpress.com/2010/08/20/mystery-and-the-city
Imagination's all it takes. Mystery and the City. I’ ve been a follower of vampire stories long before the recent widespread ‘exploitation’ of the genre in film and TV. My favourite American vampire stories authors Anne Rice and Charlaine Harris have chosen Louisiana as the epicentre of their novels. My obsession with their work resulted to an interest with Louisiana, most especially New Orleans. Apart from the vampire stories, the city is known for its Voodoo queens, witches and witch doctors, and its e...

A Bridge in the Clouds | third world traveler
https://kwenivarga.wordpress.com/2010/07/20/a-bridge-in-the-clouds
Imagination's all it takes. A Bridge in the Clouds. I watched X-Men: The Last Stand for the nth time yesterday and was still amazed by the scene where Magneto single-handedly uprooted and bent the Golden Gate Bridge. Of course it wasn’t the first time the bridge was destroyed on film or TV. Being San Franciso’s top landmark, we’ve seen it ravaged by human or natural forces several times, mostly in armageddon-themed shows. Travel packages never exaggerate when they say that the city can take your breath a...

Edinburgh’s Secrets | third world traveler
https://kwenivarga.wordpress.com/2010/07/20/edinburghs-secrets
Imagination's all it takes. Everybody loves a good story. I, for one, am a fan of different sorts of stories. I would indulge in an exciting fiction but nothing beats real events. I have a very soft spot for juicy, incredible, and even scandalous accounts from history. One story I couldn’t forget was a feature from History Channel about the secret underworld of Edinburgh. It explores the story and places that provided Robert Louis Stevenson with inspiration for his classic work. Of course, nowadays Edinb...

Frontier’s Farewell | third world traveler
https://kwenivarga.wordpress.com/2010/07/20/frontiers-farewell
Imagination's all it takes. I was able to watch how The New Frontier was torn down in 2007 on a National Geographic feature titled Blowdown: Vegas Casino . It shows how the demolition crew strategically and carefully planned the implosion, giving utmost importance to the strategic placement of explosive material and ultimately, the timing of detonation. It ensures that the building crumbles on itself within a few seconds thus greatly reducing damage to its surroundings. By kwenivarga on July 20, 2010.
