After a successful run of Rak of Aegis Online, the Philippine Educational Theater Association (PETA) announces another streaming play to cap 2021. This time, PETA revamps Rody Vera’s provocative, relevant, and heart-wrenching anthology drama on HIV, Under My Skin, directed by Melvin Lee, from the stage to the screen, together with esteemed advocacy organizations The Red Whistle and LoveYourself, and UNILAB, Inc., PETA’s major co-presenter.
A few months before the year ends, I became very busy with a lot of things happening in life. I was a bit disappointed to myself that I wasn’t really able to complete my monthly journal. Though I still manage to properly arrange my files, time isn’t really enough to include it on my to do list.
That is the reason why, I forced my self and decided to create this content, not to satisfy other people but to give myself a credit for finishing this amazing year. Of course none of this could have happen without the help of our almighty God. So I am very thankful for Him giving me all the blessings and help that I needed.
My activity on the first day usually sums up what will be my months highlights. This July, the month started with the theater play “Rak of Aegis.” Eventually, it was followed by a series of different cultural activities like Virgin Lab Fest, Eto na Musikal nAPO, Elements Music Festival, and other fashion related activities like Gayak Fashion Show, EFS Photoshoot and the chance to be styled by Daryl Chang at Uniqlo. It has been a blast this month, especially when I attended the Tough Mudder Race and bonded pretty well with my Tough Mudder crew. We even had drawn some plans of traveling to places like Tagaytay (which I wasn’t able to join) and La Union, which is soon to be fully painted by the crew.
Pardon for the title but I am just trying to be witty, but failed I guess. This month, I was able to figure out a scheme to better document all my activities within the month. It actually made me do this article easier, than how I did in the previous months. So, I am expecting to regularly do this now on a monthly basis.
Rak is Back! And is ready to roll more than a handful of shows on its sixth run. The Filipino musical phenomenon, Rak of Aegis, will have a total of 77 shows with performances beginning June 20 until September 2, 2018 at the PETA Theater Center. And just like the former runs, something new and exciting is about to happen on the 6th season. It may have the same story line but surely the new twist will both entice old and newbie Rak-ers.
