Volcom T-Shirt Artwork Contest for Filipino Artists
Over the last decade, Volcom has provided a platform for aspiring artists to express themselves through the Featured Artist Series line of products. Mark Appleyard, Michael Sieben, Mitchell Froelich, Todd Bratrud and Michael J. Zepeda are only some of the independent artists previously tapped by Volcom.
The chosen Volcom artist is then tasked to design T-shirts and a range of other accessories such as hats, wallets, and belts as well as boardshorts, sweatshirts and woven/knit shirts. The Featured Artist Series line is released in Volcom outlets worldwide.
Following the theme, "Why are you hurting your neighborhood? What's wrong with you?" Volcom is now inviting local Filipino artists to turn in an original design that answers the question for the chance to be part of Volcom's Featured Artist Series line.
In line with this, bloggers and media friends were invited to the launch of this project weeks ago and got to try to create their very own Volcom T-shirt design embodying its campaign/theme for the contest in an impromptu contest. The winner was submitted to the contest.
- A cash prize of Php 25,000.00
- A Php 10,000 shopping spree of Volcom stuff from Aloha Boardsports.
- Plus, media mileage and bragging rights for holding the title of being a Volcom Featured Artist
- 16 ½" width x 23 ½" height JPEG format with 300 dpi
- *Artwork should incorporate the Volcom stone.
Results will be out by the 2nd week of November so start working on your all-original piece now, 'cause you just might be the next Volcom Featured Artist.

Oktoberfest 2008
San Miguel gunned for the longest beer grill/bar which stretched the long of San Miguel Avenue. They also sought a spot in the biggest beer raising or toasting at one given time.
It was only in the 300-peso air-conditioned tent did they sell the Oktoberfest beer. It was there also where the darting and the other beer-drinking games happened.

Chinese Mooncake Festival: 中秋節
Now that we're already in college, in the UP Chinese Student Association, this time of the year signals our annual event of Mooncake dice game for both Filipinos and other interested people and Chinese students to play the popular dice game and enjoy the culture.
Funnel Cake Factory
But some Sunday back, we saw this in Unimart, Greenhills. It's a recent addition to the food stalls right before you enter the strip of stores from Unimart going to the V-Mall. I knew that that was the right time to convinced my parents to buy and taste this at long last.
We got the Caramel Almond and the Nutty Chocolate. Caramel Almond stands out, and is a winner -- though I would love a scoop of my favorite vanilla ice cream melt on top of it. Yumm :)

Avril Lavigne's Best Damn Tour
I won these lovely Upper A tickets from Titik Pilipino.
They arrived early this morning.
It's okay for me to go to the concert,
but I opted to give it to Jason and Janelle instead.
I hope they enjoy! :3
