Another glorious chapter of my life has come to an end.
Words are never enough to express how thankful I am to those who have contributed to the nature of my existence.
The source of all, our dear God for the guidance that made me take the right path of my life's journey.

I dedicate all of this to my Mommy and Daddy, for their everlasting support. To my Lola, Kuya and Katrin for the love, trust and prayers, To Lee Ann who serves as my inspiration , for the love and strength that you gave me when everything seemed too difficult to handle, and for sharing all the great lessons in life and companionship. I will cherish and value this forever.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH...
