Joel’s 5th Year in Heaven

By | Celebrations, Foodie, Tributes | No Comments

It’s been five years since my cousin Joel passed away and through those years, we have never forgotten him as he is always a part of our family.  We continue to celebrate Joel and now on his 5th year, we are happy to celebrate again and pay tribute to him.  We miss him and we love him, but we will always remember him and he will always be in our hearts

A beautiful video of Joel

Feeding Program by Iya

By | Educare, For kids | No Comments

Untitled from msplp on Vimeo.

Me ( Iya Consengco)  and my friends ( Kat Aquino, Raphaelle Fernandez and Haydie Castrodes ) wanted to do something special during Chinese New Year last January 23,2012, so we came up with a feeding program for Educare since we all are fond of kids.

When we arrived at the event, it felt great to see 70 kids smiling at us, eager to share to us their talents. The program started off with a prayer and me and my friends introduced ourselves. Ms.Cecille Pamugalinog ( Teacher at Educare ) guided the kids in performing their morning action songs and after that, we were able to distribute food for the kids and have the giveaways given to them. The kids definitely loved the food..

Since we are Communication Arts  as well, we decided to make this AVP for heart-to-heart and Educare to hopefully inspire all of you to volunteer and experience the joy of helping out Educare. The subtitles are in tagalog so that the medium of language could reach multiple demographics.

Special thanks to my parents ( Jing and Brenda Consengco ) who supported this event.

Hot Or Iced?

Wherever the weather goes, your favorite handcrafted espresso beverage can follow. For the mornings when winter re-emerges, your favorite hot espresso beverage is there to warm you up, and when the sun comes out (hooray!), that same beverage over ice will recharge and refresh you.
