What I loved about working on the September ish
Hi, guys!
I'm sure you've all grabbed a copy of the September ish already. If you haven't, what are you waiting for? Get one na before it runs out!
Anyway, I just wanted to share some of the things I loved about working on this issue (as the title of my post says). Hehe!
1. Interviewing cover boy Gerald Anderson and writing the story about him for our On The Cover feature. Talking to a cute boy and staring at pics of him all day? Enough said!
Here I am (holding Mimi's iPod recorder) interviewing Gerald while makeup artist Cathy Cantada grooms him.
2. Working on Jawbreaker ("Our brother was shot by carnappers!"). This month, I interviewed the family of Richard Capili. It's a sad story and I almost cried while listening to them talk about him. But the truth is, Richard's story is such an inspiring one because though he died at a young age (he was only 19!), he lived his life so fully for God and his family and he continues to inspire other people. Have you read the story? Let me know what you think! Or you can log on to candymag.com/jawbreaker to share your thoughts.

Richard and his siblings Richmond and Kaye.
3. Writing the Quiz: You're the Man! If you were a guy, what would your ligaw style be? This quiz was so fun to do! It's nice to put your head in guy mode once in a while. So, what's your ligaw style? I'm Mr. Friendship! Teehee!
Our model Katrin gamely posed like Amanda Bynes in She's the Man!
4. Interviewing John Prats for Guy Firsts about his memorable showbiz firsts. Macy and I went to ABS-CBN Talent Center to talk to John. He's such a sweetie!

Me, John, and Macy take a snappie after the interview.
5. Working on Me, Only Better. This article is about how to deal with failure. I even called my high school guidance counselor and enlisted the help of my friends for this piece. Did it help you, Candy girls? I hope so 'cause it even helped me while I was writing it!
6. And last but not the least… helping out at the Candy Cuties shoot! Three straight Saturdays of going to the office and working the whole day might be a drag for some people—but not when you're shooting cuties all day! Check out behind-the-scenes pics in Marla's post below! 
So as you can see, our latest ish is super jam-packed! Let us know your comments (positive or negative) and suggestions in TeenTalk!

P.S. By the way, be sure to hold on to your September issues 'cause it's your ticket to the Candy Fair on September 30 at The Fort. See you there!

i love the semtember issue! grabe!
it makes me jealous just thinking about you writing stuff in Candy, i’ve always considered joining the Candy Council of Cool, but never had the guts to actually do it… =((
i would love to go to the candy fair, kaya lang, i don’t think i can, because probably, my parents wouldn’t allow me to, and the fort is so malayo pa naman!! huhuhu..=( but whatever, i’ll do everthing, even if it means i need to sacrifice 2 weeks of sleepless nights to get 1.00 grade in chem, algebra and trigonometry for my midterm… as long as i can meet you guys [the maker’s of the greatest mag in the world, well, for now, since i would make my own rockin’ mag someday!haha! jut kidding!] and gio limjoco’s adorable face….hahaha!!!

Hi Jessan, don’t worry, I’m sure you’ll get a copy of the Sept ish soon. Malayo kasi lilipad pa siya from Manila to Mindanao. Hehe.
Lana, glad the article helped you!
Joselle, good luck! Sana payagan ka to go to the fair.
Thanks, Kim!!!
