[Title] => Art as provocative vision
[Summary] => On the invitation, it looked simple enough: "Bea Zobel Jr. invites you to a preview of [In]Visible, featuring the works of Filipino artist Gabriel Barredo." What it didn’t say was that this was a classic example of "irresistible force meets immovable object," as here, we had two very stubborn individuals coming together. And I use stubborn without its pejorative connotation; in this case, we can be thankful that such obstinate characters exist, clinging to their respective hopes and visions.

[Title] => The good times are back
[Summary] => 
Voltaire once said that guilt is when you let good things escape you. I’m sure he meant nobler things, but just to widen the sieve of definition, I’m sure he thought of the good times as well. Therefore, the phrase "guilty pleasure" seems like a paradox. Why feel guilty about pleasure? Life is too short.
In the cusp between our early 20s and late 70s, so are memories. Making them, however–whether we remember them or not–is an infinite endeavor.

[Title] => The importance of being Ernest Santiago
[Summary] => Sitting as a judge at the Philippine Fashion Design Competition is fun. Specially if you’re seated beside Ernest Santiago, the venerable and vivacious fashion great. If the Manila fashion scene has been very tame the past decade, it’s because Ernest has left it for greener pastures – quite literally.
From the noisy Coco Banana kingdom in Malate, Ernest has found his universe in a patch of greenery outside Metro Manila where he continues to create excitement.

[Title] => Single ‘blissfulness’
[Summary] => 
Whenever I feel half-dead or brain-fagged, which is most of the time, I rush to go on a date with the person I love most. Myself.
I am a consummate loner and I relish dating myself. And if my schedule allows it, I travel.
Once, I roamed around faraway lands for more than one year on a super-extended date. I went broke but it was six of the happiest seasons of my life.
Traveling alone and dating myself have always been the two meaningful rituals that repair and re-create my sanity.
