To my four Sang'res and adopted daughters, Congratulations! Tonight, you have transformed from girls into ladies. I couldn't be more prouder as an Adviser seeing my students exceed themselves - from young and shy (but most of the time, rowdy) teens inside the classroom into confident young women, brave and poised enough to walk and face the crowd. As cliche as it may sound, your are all winners. The mere fact that you went up on stage and proudly and boldly show what you've got is an achievement in itself. May you cherish and remember this experience as you grow older and face life's challenges. You are young and full of dreams. Never forget that ability to dream and be brave enough to achieve those dreams. Thank your classmates, from Grade 8 St. Ignatius of Loyola, my favorite advisory class so far (sorry, kids, I still love you) and your friends who gave their time and effort to support you. Lastly, please extend my heartfelt gratitude to your parents. Maraming salamat po for giving your full support to your daughters in this activity. See you again on stage next time? All the best, Sir John, Pinaka-Poging Class Adviser.
