The first one. <3

Thirteen years ago there were two kids who knew nothing about love. After 2 years of being classmates in kindergarten they parted ways and never heard from each other since then. Although they took different paths they never forgot about each other. Thirteen years later their paths crossed. And that’s how a crazy love story began.

__________________________________________________________________________

Before you read this I’m really hoping that you wouldn’t cry.=) I know I just got this idea from my sister. Hehe.xp but I liked it. And I think this is a way for me to tell you how I feel.

when i think of everything that is happening to us i feel scared. i feel scared bcoz all of these might be a dream. a dream that would just fade away. but im happy it isnt.=) im really happy that when i open my eyes i can see you beside me. im happy that i could feel you hugging me so tight like there's no tomorrow.im happy that i could still feel you kiss me before you go home and im happy that i could still hear your voice when you tell me that you love me with all your heart. what i mean is, im soo happy that all of this isn't a dream.<3

you are such an awesome guy.caring, sweet in your own way, kind hearted, fun to be with, totally honest and sincere. these are just some of the reasons why i fell for you. any girl who you would fall for is very lucky. and i'm glad that its me.=) thank you. thank you for seeing the best me. thank you for making me feel special, thank you for being there for me when i need someone.thank you for putting this smile on my face.=) thank you for everything. you asked me once if i was happy, and what i answered is true.im happier than i've ever imagined. and that's bcoz of you. =) everytime you smile, everytime you look into my eyes, everytime you hug me and everytime you tell me that you love me makes me happier than ever.<3 i always thank God for giving me the chance to be happy even for the last time. i thank HIM for giving me a BRYAN LORENZ.=) a person who would love me for who i am. a person who would love me despite all odds. i know i may not be the perfect girlfriend, but i still try to be one for you.=) i just want you to know that i will do everything to make you happy. =)

alam mo ba, everytime that you fall asleep, i just look at you and think. so many things comes into my mind. things that's hard to explain. but now i know what it is. i know that i feel happy and scared and still confused and mostly happy.=D i feel confused coz until now i dunno what in the hell you saw in me.=)) i feel happy coz i have you in my life and i feel scared bcoz i have to leave.='( i feel scared of the future.im scared of what would happen to us when the time comes that we have to leave.

every night before i sleep, or even when im with you i still feel sad bcoz i have to leave.='( ngaiun pa, when everything is going smooth. ngaiun pa when i already have you.='( I told myself that I shouldn’t love anymore. I was scared. I was scared that I’d get hurt. And I was scared that I would also hurt the one I love. I knew I was leaving. So LOVE was out of my plans. That was then before I met you. I never thought that something special would happen. I never expected that I would fall for you this hard. And I also didn’t expect that you would feel the same. so i want to say sorry bcoz i know that i am hurting you now. and i will hurt you in the future. but i wish you could promise me that you would be strong. i wish you could promise me that you would do your best not to cry.you would do your best to put a smile on your face everyday and continue to be happy. i know the time will come i may never get to see you as often as i like. i may not get the chance to hold you in my arms throughout the night but deep in my heart i truly know you're the one that i love and cant never let go that easily.=)

i'll miss the freakin' way you made me laugh, i'll miss the stupid jokes we shared, i'll miss the damn things we used to do, but above all these, i'm gonna miss you.=')

LOVE YOU BRYAN LORENZ!<3

surprises in store

MARIA CRISELDA TUASON - everybody knows her as "dada". a great dancer. a proud member of the LH varsity team. a member of the istrah and boch barkada. a sweet and caring daughter. a bestfriend for camz. and most of all, she's the only girl behind yoji's smile.

dada turnes 16 on the 21st of september 2009. the original plan was to celebrate her sweet 16 together with close friends at MOA. unfortunately, things came in and the celebration was cancelled. we knew that she really felt bad because she was so excited to have that celebration. so my sister and allen planned to have a surprise party for dada on the 23rd of september, monday. they planned to throw a little surprise party for her so that she wouldn't feel down anymore because of what happend. i think we owed it to her for not being there to celebrate with her the most special day in her year. the plan was to surprise dada with her classmates and friends, unfortunately, changes were made. majority of her classmates couldnt make it, so the program was ruined. me and my sister were really stressed because it was just an hour before the planned time. so we hurridly fixed the venue. i started with the message board because her classmates werent able to make one. my sister was decorating the place with streamers. good thing help soon arrived. allen then triz and bryan followed by cj girl started to arrive and became a helping hand. we finished everything in time.

then the party started. cam and jen, lured dada into coming to our house. so when she arrived we started to sing a happy birthday. camz, being the best friend of dada was holding the cake. everyone was singing a birthday song for her. as the lights went on, we told her that we had a surprise for her. we told her that it was too big so it was hard for us to wrap it. it was in a box that allen and bryan carried. some of us told her that it was cockroaches so she began to feel scared. but when she opened it, to her surprise, yoji was our gift. hugs,kisses, and tears fled the room. dont think surprises ended there. more was in store for the birthday celebrant. 16 wishes followed by kisses together with cookies and a dare became the highlight of the program. although we werent able to complete 16 people, we left the last kisses, cookies and dares to yoji. the night was almost through, but it can never end without a message from the celebrant. she gave each one of us a simple thank you message.

wishes and thanks really touched or hearts. a promise of a lifetime friendship, a helping hand and a shoulder to lean on were then declared. heart to heart messages and sweet whispers were just unforgettable. but most of all the fullfilment we felt because we made her happy topped the celebration off.

YODHA.o5yoji-in-a-box! =))KISS!

SWEEEET sixteen . <3

Asian youth adventure

5 years and still counting. the asian youth days have made its mark in world's history 5 years ago. youth from all over asia gather around for celebrating Gods goodness. worship and praise through songs, prayers and dances are just some of the things that you can experience in this once in a year event. every year this event is held in diffrent countries, and now the philippines became the host for the 5th ASIAN YOUTH DAY. youth delegates from all over asia joined this said event. as they arrive here in the philippines they are then distributed to the diffrent dioceses' surrounding imus cavite where the main event will be held. fortunately, paranaque became one of the chosen diocese to become a host for some of the delegates. being a youth of the vicariate of san antonio de padua, i volunteered myself to become one of the team members in the transportation team of the diocese of paranaque. delegates that we handled mostly were from Myanmar, China, Cambodia, Pakistan and the youth from the Cannossian Movement. there were also local delegates from Nueva Viscaya, Davao, Ipil, Infanta, etc..

at first i thought our duty was just to fetch the delegates from airports and bus terminals, but what happend was much more. i started my volunteer work on saturday <> activities for that day was really tiring. there was the pilgrimage where we had to do the stations of the cross while having each stations in diffrent churches along las pinas and muntinlupa. after visiting 3 churches and finishing the stations of the cross, a mass was then celebrated at Mary Immaculate-nature church in moonwalk village. after the thanksgiving mass, its party time! a barrio fiesta was held at the back of the church where delegates, local and foreign, shared dinner together. filipino delicacies were the menu for that night. the fiesta was really fun. bands and dance groups showcased a world class performance. the las pinas boys choir, which gave the philippines an international award became guest performers for that night. even the singer princess velasco awed the audience with her acoustics.our saturday ended at around 12 midnight already, but before we went home we joined the delegates from nueva viscaya to see thier home here in our subdivision. together with tita ruby and the others, we shared a moment of laughter together with our fellow youth.

thus the story ends on a monday morning after a breakfast at st. joseph's parish in las pinas city and a farewell party at the st. andrews cathedral. goodbyes fled the place were we handed over the delegates to the youth of cavite. MOA became the last place where we had to spend time with our new friends. in the middle of the day, we parted ways with the delegates and wished them a happy life and hoped that we will see each other again.

YAsia FIESTA!

a Princess at Bloom.

Erish Nepomuceno

- Energetic, Real, Intelligent, Simple and HOT kind of girl. a perfect daughter and sister. a really great dancer. a good student. and a member of the BMW.=)

it was the 3rd of november when her parents started her fairy tale story. a princess is now at bloom as she celebrates the mark of her 18th birthday at Shang-ri la makati last november 14. together with her closest family and friends she opened a new chapter in her life. although the celebration was a week after, it was still magical and ecstatic. the night started with a simple cocktail outside the ballroom, then it followed with a prayer of thanksgiving to open the night.a little background story about the birthday princess was then told. and after the fairy tale story comes out the beautiful princess in her pink gown. after erish was introduced, the causual 18 roses followed. 18 men danced with her that night as they offered her a rose that symbolized a year of beauty and magic. after the 18 roses, dinner followed. the second part of the celebration started right after the dinner. the 18 candles followed after a simple game. 18 girls stepped forward to give thier birthday mesasge and wishes to the celebrant together with a candle that became the light for the celebrant. after the blowing of the candles, the 18 treasures, balloons and shots were given.

the night was truly a blast for everyone. especially for the birthday celebrant for she was not the only one celebrating her birthday. she together with her sister and mother shared the same birthmonth so, there and then, they celebrated thier birthdays. erish gave a simple gift for the 2 other celebrants by offering them a foxtrot dance.

that night wasnt just only a birthday celebration for erish but it was also kind of a reunion for the barkada. unfortunately, we weren't complete. but even though some were not there we still tried our best to make every second worth while. we danced together till we dropped. we laughed together til our faces couldnt take it anymore. we owned the night like it was ours to own. and we did it all as we spent the night with the princess of the barkada, as she celebrates her day.
