First BGO Cosplay: Masquerade Ball

The first ever Cosplay event was held at Bethel Global Outreach with the theme: Masquerade Ball. It had more than a hundred of participants, guests and newbies from the two youth service last January 29, 2012. With their most fashionable attire, the youth participants have worn their fabulous masks: of different colors, shapes, styles, and shine.

The Production Team

I like the fact that the youth really prepared for this event as the ladies even put make up on their face, some curled their hair, worn dazzling accessories, borrowed and rent a cocktail dress that they can wear. On the other hand, even the gentlemen prepared for this with their cool masks, clean-cut and waxed hair, and formal attires.

Here is the glimpse of the youths who participated for the masquerade ball:

Trick or Treat with ZomBaliw

As the first day of November comes, Filipinos, particularly the Roman Catholics, as a tradition used to light candles in front of their houses in memories of their love ones.

This season, the All Saint’s and all Soul’s day would never be complete without these spooky stuffs:

• Halloween Party
• Horror Movies
• Trick or Treat
• Haunted houses and places trips

Unlike the usual activities of Filipino kids, who loved to play and collect the dried fallen candle waxes on the night of November 1^st, , things already changed. Since last year, children living in our village started to have a trick or treat. It seems like it’s another version of caroling at Christmas, but on the shortest way and most prepared way, putting make ups, bringing pumpkins and buckets and singing or shouting, “Happy Halloween, Trick or Treat!” The houses around our village warmly enjoy those kids having fun as they gave money and candies. I think these kids were really inspired and influenced by watching one of the famous cartoons in their generation, Spongebob Squarepants.
