Ralph Vincent Clar D, Abarquez

AB History

Ralph-believes that his most accessorized feature is his

passport.
Ralph-maintains that driving fast is the only way to drive,
albeit with its (sometimes pleasurable) risks.
Ralph-studied history using the immersive approach (a.k.a.
Arabic History = food trip to Tajma)

Fortunately for us, Ralph decided to go beyond what the

average Joe would do and involved himself in music, the
stage and the occasional fit of vainglory.

We’ll all miss Ralph. Durn. Touché.

Joseph Michael C. Reyes

AB History

Yentl is not his favorite movie. Often, he eats dinner at

night. Usually, he does not study. Aggressive, he is not.
Reading is something he actually enjoys. Eating is one of his
favorite pastimes. Relaxing is an important part of his day.
Elephants are not forgetful. Tang is his favorite orange juice
concentrate. Aluminum foil hurts his teeth when he chews
it. Rabbits have droppings that look like pellets. Driving is
something he does not like to do. Everyday he writes a
book. David Schwarzenegger is Arnold Schwarzenegger’s
nerdy American cousin.

Datu Blah Gemier C. Sinsuat

AB History

Datu Blah, Gemier, or Blah to most people, is just as unique

as each of his given names. Jolly, pure of heart and truly
generous, Blah is a guy that is simply hard to forget. Though
he may not stick out like a sore thumb in the crowd, he
stands out in whatever he is doing. As a Cadet Officer,
he strikes his subordinates as most reasonable and just.
In PE, he is usually the most outstanding player or dancer,
no matter what class he is put into. As the Sangguniang
Kabataan Chairman of his baranggay, he gives his
constituents a reason to keep hoping in this seemingly
hopeless country.

Blah especially stands out as a Muslim prince in a Catholic

university. But in truth, Blah is more Christian than are a
lot of mainstream Christians. He possesses the innocence
of a child that gives him wisdom beyond what sheer logic
would provide, and an aura of peace and tranquility. Blah
simply is a true prince in this modern world.
