The Wind-up Bird Chronicle Theatrical Production

They say this book by Haruki Murakami is 'unfilmable'. So, they're making a theatrical production instead. Haha!

Trailers are available at:

Project Overview: The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle is an interdisciplinary theatrical production based on the internationally acclaimed novel by one of Japan’s most renowned writers, Haruki Murakami. Inspired by Murakami’s visionary style, writer/director Stephen Earnhart merges live performance, live music, dance/movement and Bunraku puppetry with on-stage projections of video, anime, and holographic technology to create a “theatre of dreams.” This cross-cultural play incorporates both English and Japanese languages and represents an international collaboration between Western and Asian artists and designers.

This project marks the first time Mr. Murakami sanctioned the adaptation of any of his full-length works for any medium. Mr. Earnhart (formerly Director of Production for Miramax Films) began his adaptation in 2005 while living in Tokyo and conferring with Mr. Murakami, continued his script work at the Edward Albee playwright residency in 2006 and has made several subsequent trips to Japan to collaborate with members of Tokyo’s theatre community. In the spring of 2007, he co-wrote a new draft with fellow Albee-resident Gregory Pierce, and began working with Tokyo-based translator Keiko Tsuneda. In the spring of 2008, puppet designer and performer Tom Lee joined the team, an important collaborator whose work can be seen in NYC at the Metropolitan Opera’s stunning production of Anthony Minghella’s Madame Butterfly. Mr. Earnhart spent three months in Tokyo in 2008 as part of a fellowship from the Asian Cultural Council and has created four workshops in the last year to further the play’s development.

Accountancy Students Seminar and Extra-Curricular Training

ASSET 2009 aims to deliver competitive advantage to accountancy students through a three-day seminar that will be conducted by no less than the experts in the industry.

Delegates from major colleges and universities in the country will converge in this unparalleled event, which seeks to mould them into the future leaders and managers of this country. To ensure that we cater only to the best, interested accountancy students will undergo a stringent screening process, which includes an interview to be conducted by esteemed HR departments of sponsoring companies.

ASSET features forums with distinguished guests, rigorous case analyses, and team-building activities that are sure to strengthen business knowledge and enhance the leadership and communication skills of the delegates. ASSET trains aspiring business leaders to develop strategic analysis, conceptualize with strong theoretical framework, build good working relations and deliver with articulation and poise – all this at no cost.

An exceptional learning experience, ASSET not only advances UP JPIA’s thrusts of excellence and integrity in accountancy, but it is also geared towards the vision of molding the future innovators and leaders of the society. It is driven to instill an unmatched sense of urgency and pride in catering to the needs of today’s highly dynamic business environment.

This year, ASSET again upholds the standards of excellence it has advocated for the past six years. Only fifty of the best penultimate and graduating students from top colleges and universities from all over the Philippines emerge as delegates after a rigid screening process. An exciting and prosperous ASSET 2009 awaits these delegates as they spend three days and two nights of learning and enjoyment come September 11-13, 2009.

The law is infallible and precise, and it says that your dominant thoughts and feelings will return to you as your life. Whether you think pessimistic thoughts or positive thoughts, the law is working unfailingly in every single moment of your life, based on those thoughts. Pessimistic thoughts bring a life full of pessimism, and good thoughts and feelings bring a life filled with all good. The choice is yours!

Surreal Surprise

I have been watching TV all day, all week. I have this really annoying earache so I decided to go see the doctor, stay at home and watch TV. While I was watching an episode of Food Paradise on Discovery Travel and Living, I came across an advertisement inviting the viewers to join an online contest to get a chance to meet Bob Blumer in Manila.

Bob Blumer is a "culinary adventurer and the host and co-creator of the adventure television series GLUTTON FOR PUNISHMENT."

I'm a fan not only of T&L shows but also of T&L hosts -- they are funny, witty and just awesome. Hehe! So, I joined the contest thru this website: http://www.discoverychannel.co.uk/web/bobblumer/. Joining the contest was easy. I just gave my name and contact details and answered the question "What was one of your most memorable gastronomic experiences?"

And this afternoon, I received this e-mail:

Wooohooo! I did not expect to win. But I won. HAHA! I will keep you posted for updates on this. :P

P.S. Earache, go away! I'll give you one week and if you choose to stay, I'll get back to the doctor and she will make you vanish.
