February 13, 2010 was indeed a Night to Remember ! After a month of preparation and practices the day of our JS Prom came. We were ready to face the Red Carpet with all our Splendor and Excitement . The Senior's hired Lakshmi to be their Paparazzi for the wonderful event. Of course the Juniors also hired Reno to take all the important snapshots .
This year's theme was Hollywood Inspired. We all had a star to greet us, when we walked up the red carpet and the grand staircase of the Clubhouse . Of course our Paparazzi took some time to follow us and take our pictures. Although, they were CdO reknowned photographers the photos above were taken by my schoolmate .
The program was wonderful , Benjoe seranaded us with a song that melted the Teacher's hearts. Apple inspired us with her rendition of " My Valentine "( she's quite a songbird!)while her friends danced like real ladies and gentlemen. Nikko , Apple , Kissy , and Joey had a light and cute song number which made me realize that I am graduating very soon .Nikko and Joey sang "I'm Yours" and dedicated it to all the ladies of MdO. Anthony also sang a song for the first time and he had to calm his nerves but he did get by. Kathleen C. and Brynner V. sang a duet which was actually an avenue for Brynner to express how much he was crushing on Cute and Lovely Geraby . However during the instrumental part , Joey had to give Geraby flowers !!! It was quite a scene , still everyone had fun. For the Finale , the boys of Fourth year Amethyst showed off their moves and it definitely made the night more exciting!
I like how MdO gives us students a chance to express ourselves and come out from our shell . Our school is indeed a beacon of light in making Quality education a holistic experience.
The dances were choreographed by Sir Raul Prima and I must say he really thought about it and made each set worth watching. The Ladies gowns twirled while the Gentlemen looked dashing in their suits and tux. I particularly liked the Boys wearing bow ties , they were setting the trend ;-)
Of course the Last Will and Testament and Glimpse of the Future made the night a different one . Each one was acknowledged and the writers Marion and Geraby really did a wonderful job making it almost similar to the First few batches of MdO - very personalized and positive :-)
Miss Alma Mater - the very intelligent and lovely Marion Poblacion was proud to accept her sash and so were Vanessa Dy and Nette Labis both awardees for the evening.
Miss Alma Mater's Speech was heartfelt, short , and direct to the point. It made me so proud of my friend while watching her speak in the podium.
Jill Velez accepted the key of responsibility with a wonderful speech. Kissy and John Lerio were great hosts , they spoke clearly and included us in their spiels .
It was indeed a Night to Remember!
