“Always the smart one.” This is just one of the phrases that
describe Chu Chia Chen, or simply Sally. She is the older of
two girls and her family describes her as the smarter one,
while the other sister gets the beauty. But do not be fooled
by this comment, though, because in her simple ways, this
Taiwanese lady is beautiful within and more so physically.
She does not only excel in academics, because she can
also kick, punch, run and shoot a hoop! To add, she has also
participated in many extra curricular activities. She can be
very angry about tardiness and irresponsibility, but those
are just the few things that we admire about her. Not to
forget, she is sweet and loyal to her friends, but be warned
about her frankness. This woman cannot be persuaded if
her priorities are put on the line, because she knows her
responsibilities as a daughter, student, citizen, and friend.
But she is not that tough since even corny jokes can really
crack her up. Through stress and fun that smile on her face
is always there to cheer everyone.

Dear Reader,
The fact that you took time to look at this page means
that this friend of mine has touched you in more ways
than one. You might think she is appealing to the eyes
but you, who know her more than just a face, know her
character appealed to your heart. You know she is not only
a brilliant mind but more importantly an insightful soul.
You also know that she has exquisite style and taste yet
her simplicity is the one that stands out. You know she’s
not the friendliest face and you might not have received
hi’s and hellos everytime you pass by each other but
what she lacked in words, she made up in her sincere and
priceless gestures. You know that in her company, smiles
are shared and struggles are fought. And you know that
wherever your path takes you and whatever happens, she
will always be a part of you and a part of hers. A legacy
that moved you. A legacy that shall not die.

The first thing one notices about Edz is her warm, dimpled
smile. Captivating and worthy of a Close-up commercial, it
definitely inspires and never fails to brighten the day; yet it
doesn’t even begin to convey how outstanding this girl is. A
singer with a voice that never ceases to soothe the soul, a
do-it-yourself master who can create innovative things with
the use of her hands, Edz was definitely present when God
doled out talent and creativity. She always has the passion
to explore and learn new things and can do anything she
puts her mind to, including balancing academics, singing,
organizations and social life. Even with all her commitments
and responsibilities, Edz never fails to connect to people
with her cheerful and caring disposition. Sweet as she is,
she looks as if she’s very harmless. But mind you, this girl
knows how to get what she wants! Don’t be fooled by the
seemingly shy appearance, beneath it all is a wacky and
outgoing person full of passion, faith, love, and life. To top it
all, Edz is certainly one great friend--ever genuine, reliable,
understanding, thoughtful, someone you can always count
on. That said, Edz is just simply amazing!

Look at this picture very carefully for someday, you will see
this picture hang the halls of Malacanang. You are looking at
the future President of the Philippines.
With all the achievements tucked in his belt, it’s amazing how
he keeps his feet planted firmly on the ground. Maybe because
his greatest source of inspiration is none other than his faith.
Knowing Che these past few years, you’ll still feel that
she always has something you need to know about.
Despite that, she’s trustworthy and understanding. She
seems to be serious and meticulous most of the time but
she sure knows how to have fun. She’s one of the nicest
and most tolerant people anyone could ever see. It seems
that sadness doesn’t fit for this girl. She’s one of the few
people who can still smile despite extreme frustration
and pressure. Che is an epitome of a responsible, flexible,
and dynamic person. She knows how to manage her
time and goes the extra mile to do what is expected of
her and more. A silent worker, Che is efficient but does
not want the limelight on her. She is willing to settle in the
background or blend in with the crowd; that just shows
how she’s not conceited. Che truly and undoubtedly
treasures her friends and always finds ways of showing
it to them. For these reasons, she has earned the love and
respect of her friends who would sincerely be by her side
incessantly.

Dyan entered the Ateneo like a little girl. With her petite
frame, she tackled her new world with her ‘precious
moments’ eyes wide open. Her animated expressions and
witty one-liners are simply adorable. She’s fascinated with
the simplest things. You would be amazed how she can
spend her day blowing bubbles and playing pickup sticks.
Like a child, she needs to be fed constantly and not one
drop of rain should touch her body. But what baffles friends
the most is how she is still innocent in love, totally unaware
of her irresistible taray look and charms. In her eyes, it’s
like seeing everything for the very first time.

Upon seeing her the first time, I bet you wouldn’t want
to talk to her. It is always that “taray look” factor that
misleads you into thinking that this lady is terrifying. Either
that or you’d think she’s Korean and you’re never going to
understand each other. However, (for the record!) no, she’s
not Korean and yes, she might indeed be quite scary—but
with the right reasons, of course. Better not mess with
our would-be lawyer, for this girl is tough. She knows
the worth of fighting for what is right and wise enough
to know what she wants. Nonetheless, I’ll let you in on a
secret: she is actually a sham. She’s not so strong as you
think she is; in fact she has a gentle, vulnerable heart that
beats lovingly for her family, melts easily from a touch,
and cries with “A Walk to Remember.” Her aloof, snobbish
image is but a mere fabrication of what is in reality, an
affable person and a dependable friend. I guess it’s fair to
say then, that the next time you look at her, you might first
want to reconsider.

At first glance, you think he’s a snob and a loner. But wait
until you get to know him better. The total exact opposite,
this guy is a walking amplifier enough to vibrate your
life with enthusiasm, energy and voice! (He’s a proud
member of the Ateneo Blue Babble Batallion) Age is the
voice-and-talk-of-all sorts; one can’t help but be engaged
in deep conversations with him, from chismis and life to
philosophies and anything under the sun! And one will
surely agree it’s all worth the time; his winning insights are
truly amazing. Always clad in shirt, denim pants and rubber
shoes, Age is one free-spirited wanderer; still, one would
definitely agree that he is the group’s dwelling place.

“You’re..
Clownlike, happiest on your hands, / Feet to the stars, and
moon-skulled,
Gilled like a fish. A common-sense / Thumbs-down on the
dodo’s mode.
Wrapped up in yourself like a spool, / Trawling your dark,
as owls do.
Mute as a turnip from the Fourth / Of July to All Fools’ Day,
O high-riser, my little loaf.
Vague as fog and looked for like mail. / Farther off than
Australia.
Bent-backed Atlas, our traveled prawn. / Snug as a bud and
at home
Like a sprat in a pickle jug. / A creel of eels, all ripples.
Jumpy as a Mexican bean. / Right, like a well-done sum.
A clean slate, with your own face on.”

EJ’s the friend who you feel has been there all along,
as she gives the kind of genuine honesty and concern
reserved for childhood friends. Loyal to the very end,
she’ll never fail to give you all-out support. Ya-ren firmly
stands by her convictions, especially in upholding her faith
and feministic stands. In fact, she sometimes acts like a
boy – she is a ‘romance-hater’, would rather wear a sack
than the color pink and could easily out-Excel any geek in
the CS Dept. Despite this ‘tough-chick’ exterior, EJ is really
quite touching, bringing friends brownies and staying
up late to finish their projects’ most tedious parts—50-
page appendices and perplexing crash costs. This results
in constant sleep deprivation, the reason she is always
a late away from being over-cut! All in all, EJ seems to
be a walking contradiction—sweet to the core but not
to be messed with! In her heart, she is just a little girl,
still awaiting all the world has to offer while minoring in
Marketing and shaking her J-Lo butt along the way!

When you hear the name Jasslyn, there is only one thing
you automatically think of: fashion addict. Her sense of
style and love for fashion are only a few of the things
that make her special. Obviously, that’s not all there is to
her. On the outside, one would easily envy her with her
good looks, slender frame, and wow height. But beneath
her beautiful facade, is a unique jewel only a few are
fortunate to find. Her quick wit and cleverness make her
an extremely good conversationalist. She possesses that
astute common sense and intelligence that are rare among
her peers. With all these, there is still one thing that is most
noticeable among the rest—what is inside her heart. Jass
has one of the biggest hearts, ready to drop anything to
help a friend. Having love problems? Don’t know what to
wear? Call 1-900-Jass. Given her ability to speak and her
sense of reason, coupled with her long legs, flawless skin
and good heart, Jass is one extraordinary combination that
people can’t help but love and admire.

Chut has the loudest laugh and one of the biggest hearts
in school. Chut loves to laugh at all the jokes, and when
she laughs, her friends laugh at the way she laughs. The
cornier the jokes, the better. She also has the rare talent to
get a perfect score in videoke singing Macarena and 5,6,7,8.
Singing, however, is not her real forte. She’s a lot better as
a great friend. Chut has always been there whenever her
friends needed her. She knows how to listen well, to give
sound advice and to say the right things at the right time.
She goes out of her way to comfort her friends, even if it
means hanging out in their flat and drinking a few rounds
of beer! This girl loves the beach, loves to travel and loves
to party. It’s not difficult to ask her out for barkada gimiks
and out of town getaways, which is why sometimes,
friends call her “one of the boys.” Intelligent, witty, funny,
adventurous and extremely friendly, Chut is definitely one
of the best reasons why four years of Ateneo life is all
worth it.
