ORGULLO
O N L i N E
19 December 2005
What a roller coaster ride it's been! Our girl Shakira couldn't have sung it better: Whenever, wherever/ We're meant to be together/ I'll be there and you'll be near/ And that's the deal my dear. Thank you for all the love. From Spanish 1 to the year 2005, we've surely gone a long way, and it's such a wonderful feeling that we're celebrating a milestone today. Happy Silver Orgullo News Online, everyone!
Orgullo, Plata, Mata
Last Saturday was quite a busy day for a few Orgullosos. Niña, her frenemy Noel, and Allan watched Repertory Philippines' Man of La Mancha, a wonderful musical that weaves the lives of Miguel de Cervantes and the character Don Quixote de la Mancha. It was shown at Greenbelt 1 and thankfully, the audience was great simply because the actors were also great. And we saw a lot of artistas, even in Greenbelt 3. (Okay, Noel, you can now stop drooling at Pinky Amador.) Don would've wanted to see the play but he had prior commitment that night.
After the musical, off they went to join Blossom, Dimple, and Jewel at the Thomson Financial lavish Christmas Ball at the Makati Shangri-la. The "Gatecrashers," aka Niña, Noel, Allan and Martin Manuson (who was there to pick up big sis) also saw ex-Círculo Hispánico president Tara. Too bad Rhoda had problems with her new contacts that night and wasn't able to join the party. She missed Dimple's group's fantasy presentation. Well, we hope you get well soon in time for our reunion! =)Since Jewel (who looked great that night, as did Dimple and Blossom) would be leaving Thomson Financial on December 19, TF would be looking for a replacement analyst/translator. Interested applicants may submit their CV through e-mail to:
or hand carry to the 20th flr. FGU center Ayala life Ayala Ave. Makati City. Applicants must be fluent in written and oral Spanish, finished a four-year degree (preferrably in Spanish or Economics), hard working, focused and determined. And charming. Haha!
Mel E. would be anticipating to see Jewel in Nueva York. By the way, She leaves for the US on December 30 and would start her stint at the World Bank in Washington on January 9, 2006. ¡Enhorabuena, chica!
We´re so happy for Ian, who's found fulfillment in military service. "Dreams do come true after all," he wrote. We couldn't have said it any better. We're all looking forward to our future reunion. Be safe and God bless.
And because this is a special occasion, here's a teaser for everyone. There would be a special commemorative token that y'all would be getting during our Virheißend, Spécialement Orgullo Pasko: Buon Natale (see how it showcases our multilingual skills, LOL) on December 23 at Italianni's Gateway, 7:00 PM. We hope that that's music to your ears and we are so looking forward to seeing you all this Friday. Those who've confirmed attendance are: Allan, Blossom, Diday, Don, Niña, Jewel, Henz (plus a possible date), and Rhoda have already agreed to join VSOP: Buon Natale. Armis, Jiji, and Dimple are trying to fix their skeds. Mye and Rona would not be able to come because they´d be home for the holidays before the 23rd. But what about the rest, i.e. Eky, Rio, Mel F? Niña would also try to contact Nikki del Coro and Marita. Well, we've heard Ian and Mel E will not make it as they're still in Iraq and New Jersey, respectively. hehehe!
Advance Merry Christmas.
And that's the deal my dear. =)
Quotable Quote: "Why would I want to get well if I'm dying? It is such a waste of good health." A line by Sr. Quijano aka Don Quixote, from the musical Man of La Macha. Of course, he said that before he remembered he was in love with his Dulcinea and had a reason to dream.
Dito sa Orgullo News Online, we're only thinking of you....
