Mrs Sto Nino Hospital

Last Saturday (Dec 22) we held our Annual Christmas Party at our newly opened Villa Rosalinda Events Venue. Everybody was excited as the highlight of the evening is the search for
Mrs Sto. Nino Hospital. Every Department has their  own representative for the event.

The contestants turned out to be inimitable and gamely did their part.  We were awed with enjoyment as they paraded on their national costume.

Crystallyne Ramos of Radiology  Department showed her curvaceous  body and  looked so poised and natural. She's a real beauty in and out.

Rhea Duenas of ER Dept surprised the audience as she did her fire dance supported by her equally artistic groupmates.  She truly deserved the Ms Talent award! Such a transformation from a simple nurse to a voluptous woman that night!

I liked the spirit of Ms Nida Lopez of OR DR Department as she tried her best to compete with the younger girls in the group and... she bested them by winning the first runner up.  Now I truly believe   that age is just a number.

The nursing group was represented by Ms Levi Brilliantes. She was like a walking barbie doll...elegant and eyecatching in every move. She also danced gracefully supported by her groupmates.

Ms. Jasmine Marquez of the Accounting Dept  was our Mrs SNH. She proved everybody that she is worthy of the title as she exudes radiance in almost all the categories. She is an epitome of a mother and career woman who takes care of her body  well.   Truly a delight  in every aspect. Hats off to you Jaja!

 Worth mentioning is Mr Raymund Lazaro for his efforts in making this pageant another success.

Id like to make  special mention the participants of the talent portion for a job well done.  Ms Marife Maximo could have been a best actress if there is such a category.

 Id like to thank Dra Liza for hosting the event ...whom at first I thought was a contestant too! she looked stunning....

Most Cordial Staff Award

Though toxic with hospital works I commend the staff who made this party a memorable one.  Id like to thank my mom... our medical directress who gave her unwavering support.

For me they were all stars of the night. Each one showed their talent and beauty in their own way.

Congratulations!

From our family....

Merry Christmas and a Prosperous New Year to all!!!

Awarded, Rewarded

Yesterday I attended the St. Mary's College of Baliwag Grand Reunion and Awards Night.

I was chosen as one of the 100 Alumni  Achievers  in celebration of our school's Centennial anniversary.

It feels ecstatic to be back to a place which  was once a big part of my life.

It was also good seeing schoolmates and teachers I have'nt seen since I graduated.

our Elementary teachers..

Everyone was so happy cheering loudly as our former teachers sang onstage.

Our school had emerged from a humble 3- storey building to a  one colossal campus.. with a newly built 5 high edifice equipped with an imperial auditorium and an elevator!! far different from what we had 30 years ago.

 though faces were not familiar anymore , the warmth of their welcome  smile were enough  to make me feel like home once more.

who could forget Ms Herminia Demetrio, ( yes..still a 'miss') our Grade 6 adviser?she served for 42 years of unending and passionate teaching to her students..

it was a nostalgic night esp when we sang the school hymn...everyone was misty eyed.

forever i will be grateful to all the teachers and the RVM sisters.

with my favorite HS teacher Mrs Myrna Bondad
and best friend Maris Lazo 

Congratulations to my Alma Mater on her 100 years!!!

Elem batch 79  friends Maris, Malou and co-awardee Judge Maryann Manalac

I am a Marian

I spent most of my formative 

years at St Mary's

....from kindergarten till high school .

i had fond memories of her.

the RVM sisters were like my second parents

the teachers were my counsels..

my classmates were my sisters...

their discipline,  camaraderie helped and 

shaped me  

for what i am today.

at a young age I learned the values of a true Marian...

truly devoted, God fearing and compassionate.

The character she had instilled in me 

were like armor that I carried through my life.

i may have flaws, disappointments amd failures

but the Marian spirit in me kept me growing !

through the years i'll carry your name and

will always remember where i came from.

time may have passed and some of my hair turned gray 

but forever id be grateful to my alma mater.

Happy 100 years!
