All About _____

Angel: It had been eleven years after the birth of their second son. Now blessed with two
boys, the Serrano couple was praying for a princess in the family. And one fine
________, the prayer was answered with the birth of the third of the bunch, and the
most awaited one, she was going to be named ________, _____ for shot. Surrounded
by brothers, _______ was well cared for by her siblings and her parents. A typical
example was, there usually were at least two birthday celebrations, one for the familys
friends and another for the family.

Harold: Generous, humble and thoughtful, she once asked her mom to plan a

birthday party for a friend for she knew she had more than one in a year and her friend
had none. And so it happened in what was to become a popular tambayan, the Bahay
Kubo in Dulag, welcoming all her friends, playing with them with gusto.

Angel: ______ is a certified piano and singing crowd-pleaser. But more than that, the
dance gods provided her the terpsichorean talent. With ambitions of becoming a
teacher, a fashion model and most importantly a dentist with a clinic of her own, there
can be no turning back for our debutante as she fulfills her dreams.
