Sarah Jessica Parker Opens The SM Store Aura!

Tuesday, June 04, 2013

SM Aura just opened its doors to the public and it has gained quite a number of following in the past few days. I am still in disbelief that I was right in front of an A lister, a fashion icon, a lovely lady. Yes, I'm talking about Sarah Jessica Parker. Thanks to SM Aura Premier Management and The SM Store who got us first dibs in this event. This is a life changing moment for me and thousands of other celebrities, VIP's and ordinary Filipinos. I'll stop and let you take a look at what happened that evening.



I arrived a bit late because of traffic going to the venue. Everyone was so excited to be in SM Aura Premier and this lady who just happen to be one of my favorite stars in Hollywood is opening the mall. I am not worthy. I already saw her coming in but due to the multitude of press and VIP's trying to get a glimpse of her, I only could see her using this TV screen. A lot were put up around the mall, but I wasn't going to just stand there and shoot the TV screen right? I had to go near so I rushed to the front and tried to get photos while she was roaming around the mall.


You are seeing the crowd in front of the stage where they introduced Sarah Jessica Parker. As you can see, it was really impossible for me to get a shot of her with this in place. Then SJP had to roam around the department store, she was hounded by reporters and onlookers. I had to follow suit and maybe see if I can get a clear one at least.

As you can see I was failing miserably on taking a clear shot. That meant I had to skip and hop with 4 people in front of me. I could only get some shots of her hair. It was funny because I had to chase her in several floors, but alas I never got a clear shot. Then when she was whisked to a private room, I went to the press conference area and secured a seat. I stood my ground there.

Freeway x Master Composer, Conductor and Teacher Lucio San Pedro

It was another exciting evening. Another glorious time to gather at The Row in Glorietta because one of the most trusted brands in the country "FREEWAY" is launching another collection to pay homage to a National Artist Senor Lucio San Pedro. 


The genius composer behind the famous "Ugoy ng Duyan" and many other Filipino classics. You'll be shocked and awed by his credentials since he also took advanced classes in the Netherlands, Gianini and the world famous Juilliard. His passion was always at home and with the things he did for Angono and their choirs, music groups and individuals was unsurpassed because he felt his hometown should be the first ones to play his creations. A noble gesture above anything else.


The event was hosted by one of my favorite singers, Rachel Alejandro. She also sang a few songs since she did few stints in Aawitan Kita a few years back. Remember that? :)


There was also a choir from his hometown who also sang some tunes that mesmerized everyone who passed by the event. It was truly nostalgic.Lucio San Pedro wanted these guys and those from his place to sing his masterpieces. He made extra effort to actually do that.


Senor Lucio San Pedro's relatives were also there, telling us a story or two about who he was as a person. They also had some anecdotes about how he wanted his music to affect the Filipino people, and his hometown too.


Freeway also introduced the winners of their design contest and I was really impressed by their entries. 


It was really something world class! Now you have the chance to get this on their stores because it's on sale this school season. A LOT of students were already buying this so make sure you get one for yourself. It's highly recommended!

I saw the pieces that they have for the Lucio San Pedro collection. Take a look at this!


I am really impressed by their intricate designs. Their interpretation of his work into these pieces was something that could level artists too. I bet they made sure it represented him well and truly, it did. For those who want these clothes and accessories, they are all available in Freeway boutiques and The Row establishments nationwide! Make sure you grab one while it's hot!

Small Things at Work Are Worth It

Presentations in the office are but a regular thing, I just finished one this evening. There will be more and I'm currently making one as we speak. This is usually made for training sessions, lectures and information dissemination. Presenting in a more professional way if we utilize tools like this. However, we need certain tools in order to show it to an even larger audience. You need to carry around a Projector Case, screen and the projector itself too on most occasions. It's a whole package and one could never do without the other. Naturally if you don't get to protect your things, it'll deteriorate over time and you wouldn't be able to utilize the whole worth of these expensive equipment to the dismay of your company's head honcho.  


Protecting your investment and making sure that everything is used efficiently would make up a better business environment. Little things to protect your equipment are vital in making sure you are not wasting your time, effort and your client's too. Your capability to present to prospective business clients is something that you should always strive for. Without that gusto and unending fervor, you won't be able to realize your dreams. It starts from the small things believe me. It's even practiced by large corporations and it has made an impact to their businesses. Making this gesture and showing your peers how it could change their perspective of work can be something that can influence them to have a culture of care. It'll save money in a more granular way. Wouldn't that be a good thing to practice in your business? I'm sure you'll find this useful, because I did.
