Sa bawat isang pinipili may isang libong bagay kang tinatanggihan. That was the very first lesson I learned from Princess Bricenio. Anyone who has ever worked with her would tell you that… she's fearless, she's tough. As her student, I had a rare chance to get to know a side of Ces that she rarely shows people. And before she leaves, I cannot let this opportunity pass without letting everyone know what a wonderful human being she is. She is kind, she is patient, she may push you to the edge but it will always be worth it. She is loving, she is generous and she will never give up on you. She would always be someone who cared enough to encourage. Someone who gave others confidence, someone who pointed us in the right direction. Someone who is selfless enough to share her passion, her knowledge, and her heart. And if the tables would turn and I were given the chance to teach her one thing, that there's one final lesson I want her to learn and that is… Higit ka pa sa isang libong bagay na pwedeng tanggihan ng isang taong katulad ko.
