UPDATE From Archuleta Philippines and ARCH
(Angels Reaching out w/ Caring Hearts)

A DAY FOR MAKING A D-IFFERENCE

I would like to share what we did here in Manila to celebrate David Archuleta’s birthday. Originally, the plan was to have the annual Christmas cum Archie birthday celebration. But recent events compelled us to re-channel our energies and make it a more productive day, inspired by our artist of choice.
Archuleta Philippines together with ARCH (Angels Reaching out with Caring Hearts) embarked on a ecological and compassionate-driven project for this day.
ECO TRAIL HIKING
This was a surprise! We didn’t realize that there will be hiking involved. But a good sweat is always good. Yes David, 21 archies walked 1.2km through a Guided Walking Tour that lasted about 30-45 mins and which involved an EcoPark Overview, History and Orientation PLUS Plant/Trees Identification.

Noki the Tour Guide (who happens to be an Archie, too!): So what tree is this?
Archies: Kalachuchi
Noki the Tour Guide: Otherwise known as?
Archies: KALACHULETA!!!

Yup! We tried relating most of the trees to David’s name LOL

One... hundred...steps... How many more? Gotta get through this ... Gotta get through this! Had to reach the top to get a glimpse of La Mesa Dam - the water source of the whole Metropolis

TREE PLANTING
Taking a page from the 7 Habits of Successful People, where it said “Begin with the end in mind”, we looked at COS where David concluded “Remember, even if you can’t sing you can always plant a tree”. so that’s exactly what we did!

A very informative Eco Awareness Lecture, then we were off to planting David trees!

21 trees in honor of David’s birthday, which will actually be named after him thru ARCH (Angels Reaching out w/ Caring Hearts)! Neat eh? I’ll be getting the Tree Adoption Certificates w/ the naming rights 1st week of 2012

Weeee 21 David trees in years to come

LUNCH WITH MORE ARCHIES
We met with more Archies during lunch who bought more donations and were prepared to roll up their sleeves to pack our donation boxes
We transferred to One Gateway Place, where a function room has been arranged by Lorma (a resident of the condo) for our re-packing of grocery items such as caned goods, biscuits, soaps, laundry detergents, old clothes, shoes, slippers, blankets, etc..

Melissa's Recap of the Irving Plaza Show :)

Basically I went with Ashley to this show, we took a bus to NYC. Once we got there we basically waited a few hours for them to let us into the venue, we get checked in and everythnig. We got a poster, and 8x10 picture, a lanyard, a draw string backpack and a t-shirt. Me and Ashley wanted to purchase the sweatshirt so we went over and did that. I also bought some pins because one had ths squiggly pig on it and I thought that was amazing.

At one point me and Jenn noticed that there was this paper that had the schedule of the show one it. I DIDNT EVEN READ THAT THING AT THE TIME. I was just like BDSFBEUSYBFk WANT. lol. Jenn showed me it and was like "should we take this?" and I was like "well, there's only two... let's just do it" lol. So we hid them in our bags. No one even noticed.

Then the security people had us lin up single file line. Which wasn't really single file line. Me, Ashley and her mom were like stuck on the stairs lol. But once we started walking upstairs we hopped in line behind Jenn and a few other people.

Then we finally got up there and we see the DAVID ARCHULETA backdrop abjsbhfusbheik which made everything start to become a reality. It was crazy. The had the line wrap around the room. We got to go up to David twice. First time we got something signed, second time we got a pictrue taken.

So, I knew I wanted my poster signed because I LOOOOVEE that picture. So I walk up to David and right when I do he goes over to Kari (i think it was her) and whispers in her ear LOL. And then I put my poster on the table and say "Hi, my names Melissa" BTW IT WAS REALLY REALLY LOUD. And I was't completley sure if David said "Oh, hi Melissa" or 'Oh, hi Alyssa" IDK IF HE HEARD RIGHT. So I retold him my name. Didn't realize I was supposed to say "can you sign this to Melissa" but oh wells haha. Then he tries to start signing my poster and the sharpies like not working, and its a shakable one so he shakes it. YOU CAN SEE ON THE POSTER WHERE HE TRIED TO START SIGNING HAHA. It's kind of funny. So then I wanted to ask him this question, which relates to my friend Milly who was supposed to be there but couldnt for personal reasons, and it was like an inside joke between us. We basically jokingly argue over which is better-- lions or penguins. I say lions. She says penguins. It's silly really but she wanted me to ask him which he preferred since she couldnt come. So I said to him 'So, I have a silly question to ask you... which do you prefer lions or pengiuns?" And he just doesn't repsond. He's doing his own thing signing my poster HAHAHA. And then finally he looks up at me and is like "Wait what....?" With the strangest look on his face. He was SO CONFUSED. So I just asked him again and he goes "Uh.. I guess I like pengiuns" hahaha. fail David you were supposed to say lions. LOL JK. It doesnt matter. Then I handed him my letter and batya's letter and grabbed my poster and thanked him. And then I headed back in line.
