ANG GALING! NEW THREAD!
CONGRATULATIONS SA INYONG LAHAT!
Especially to Jensie_G and Lara_D.

shnicky: thanks for droppin' by!

[Apostle]

Hey there JENSIE_G, my friend. Congrats on the 3rd Pageant Page! More pages to come, especially since MU is just around the corner.

Wish list:
1. I wish Maricar will project a more natural image. She has a high tendency to become 'pageant patty.'
2. I wish Maan would develop better comm skills. She has a good chance in MI.
3. I wish that Karla continues what Mafae has set for us.

'Nuff said.

[Lara_D]

shnicky: just keep on posting
