unique churches
forwarded mail from my dad. here are ten unique churches. cheers!
Ten Most Unique Churches
Harajuku: Japanese Futuristic Church
This futuristic protestant church is located in Tokyo and it was first unveiled by the design firm of Ciel Rouge Creation in 2005. The ceiling is specially made to reverberate natural sound for 2 seconds to provide a unique listening experience for worshipers and tourists.
Saint Basil’s Cathedral: The Red Square’s Colorful Church
The St. Basil’s Cathedral is located on the Red Square in Moscow, Russia. A Russian Orthodox church, the Cathedral sports a series of colorful bulbous domes that taper to a point, aptly named onion domes, that are part of Moscow’s Kremlin skyline.
The cathedral was commissioned by Ivan the Terrible to commemorate the capture of the Khanate of Kazan. In 1588 Tsar Fedor Ivanovich had a chapel added on the eastern side above the grave of Basil Fool for Christ, a Russian Orthodox saint after whom the cathedral was popularly named.
maria
for those who havent seen this, it’s a video of my sister mamati (maria cristina) during Christian Bautista’s concert in cagayan de oro. the vid’s taken july 2008 back when he was preparing to do west side story in manila. at the concert, he called out for anybody named maria and my sister stepped out of the crowd. the rest, as they say, is history. haha
in september, the family came over to attend cuzin ej’s wedding and to watch christian in west side story. cheers! photos were taken outside the meralco theater after the show. photos with christian (tony), jake macapagal (chino) and gerald salonga (musical director).
bee season
just finished a shoot with jollibee! i always hoped id get to shoot with the bee and finally got my wish haha im a fan obviously, from regular yum with tlc all the way to macaroni soup and the chicken joy. maybe next year i should get jollibee for my birthday party. that would be fun hehe
another thing, i just realized how dark i got from the previous shoot. the photo above says it all. hahaha
terminator salvation
the trailer to the new terminator salvation movie is out and the franchise still kicks alien ass! the series got a new shot in the arm with the casting of batman in the role. im not all that sold on this choice, mainly because christian bale already donned the batsuit. taking on another classic role like john connor might be detrimental but based on the trailer, christian bale makes a really strong john connor.
evolution of john connor
the trailer shows an environment of chaos and decay, war between men and artificial intelligence developed way before arnold became governor of california. im excited with what this new movie has to offer. obviously i and majority of my family are fans of the terminator series. we watched the first movie numerous times, even on christmases (and my titas would always scream when arnold appears naked with his thing swinging like a pendulum). i loved cameron’s treatment on the 3rd movie. not as big as the 2nd, but the story stayed true to the franchise.
terminator salvation is directed by mcG (charlie’s angels). watch the trailer here http://www.apple.com/trailers/wb/terminatorsalvation/ cheers! cant wait!
