LCHS student chosen to represent Iligan in Crossroads 2003

Roxanne P. Conol, a third-year LCHS student, was chosen by the Iligan Jaycees to represent Iligan City in Crossroads 2003, a joint project of 15 Jaycee chapters all over the Philippines.  Its aim is to educate student leaders through actual visitations to various cultural, financial, educational, commercial, government, sports, recreation and religious facilities in the Philippines.

The Iligan Jaycees screened a significant number of students from different schools in Iligan City.  School principal William K. Payonan said that he was overwhelmingly happy that the only one chosen turned out to be a student of LCHS student.  But he was not surprised because Roxanne is an outstanding and exceptional student, being a consistent honors student and the champion of inter-school declamation contest when she was in Grade VI.  She also emerged as the champion in oration contest this year.

Crossroads 2003 will open in Manila.  The students will then travel from Luzon to Mindanao, and the closing ceremonies will be held in Davao City.  The entire trip will last for 19 days from March 29 to April 12.  All expenses will be shouldered by the Crossroads organizers.

The party started with a dinner with the LCHS-AA officers.  After LCHS-AA President Vy Beng Hong delivered his welcome address, he asked the new alumni to introduce themselves and talk about what possible courses they wish take up in college.  Christopher Chua Tek-An gave a short talk about life in college emphasizing the dangers posed by drug addiction and fraternities.  These points were further amplified by Calix Tan.  Rudy Yu, for his part, facilitated the freewheeling discussion on what the members of Batch 2003 perceived as problems at LCHS regarding school administrators, teachers, facilities, activities and other mattes.

Talking of career options, Teresita Racines shed light on career opportunities in statistical sciences while Roger Suminguit invited the new graduates to take a closer look on environment sciences.  The highlight of the party was when each of the 28 new alumni rose to speak about the courses they plan to pursue in college, to wit:

Radi Jed J. Alibanggo, ECE, Xavier University; Cromwell Jansen L. Co, Business Administration, Silliman or San Carlos University; Elbert Louie B. Eslao, Accountancy, MSU-IIT; Farley A. Ong, BS Psychology, MSU-IIT; Jaswin L. Orbe, Nursing, Sanitarium; Niño Casemero P. Ortiz, BS Psychology, Sanitarium; Bryann Kristoffer S. Quing, Nursing, Sanitarium; Michael Kevin L. So, Political Science, Xavier; Ben Nahshon L. Sy, Nursing, Sanitarium; Raffy Earl. Y. Tan, AB English, MSU-IIT; Enjoy Faith C. Ang, Nursing, Cebu Doctors; Myra Mae M. Bonggas, BS Electrical Engineering/Nursing, MSU-IIT; Maria Shahanah S. Cabili, Nursing, San Carlos/Velez; Gwyneth Nicole P. Chua, BS Psychology/Nursing, Xavier; Meghan A.

Remember John "Lao Kiat" Liu, the amiable Chinese teacher of LCHS in the early 60s?  He was adviser of Class of 1962 (Chinese department).  He is now director of St. Peter the Apostle School in Paco, Manila.  His son John Liu Jr. recently visited Cebu City to attend a seminar.  While in Cebu John Jr. visited one of his father's former students, Lydia Sy-Chona, from whom "Tracers" learned that John Liu Jr. has just obtained his degree in Occupational Therapy.  He specializes in administering therapeutic care for autistic children and other children afflicted with Down Syndrome.  He plans to go to the U.S.A. soon to pursue his field of specialization.

The game of golf is drawing more and more enthusiasts among LCHS alumni these days.  And the age-range of players are getting younger too. One of these young golfers who have shown much promise and great potential is Jone Raye C. Racines, son of Julius Racines (Batch '69), himself an avid golfer.  Jone Raye participated in the 56th PAL Interclub Tournament in Davao City last Mar. 1, and led his team to 4th place out of 22 competing teams in the Founders Division.  Among the young alumni in the team were Jone Raye Racines (Batch '96), with 56 points; Raymund Sy (Batch '94), 51 points; and Freddie Siao (Batch '83), 43 points.  Under the Friendship Division at the same tournament, the team of Henry Dy, Carlos Dy, Chua Tek An and Joe Tan also won 4th place.  Meanwhile, Jone Raye Racines recently won a trip for two to Hong Kong courtesy of Vulca Seal.

Congrats to Jian Leih!

Congratulations to Jian Leih C. Racines who graduated salutatorian in this year's batch of LCHS high school graduates.  She was awarded "Best in Math," and "Athlete of the Year."  She is also recipient of the "Pres. Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo Leadership Award."  Jian Leih recently took and passed with flying colors all the college entrance exams for various top universities, among them: UP-Dilliman (for any non-quota course), Ateneo de Manila University (for Legal Management), De La Salle University (Accountancy), Silliman University and Cebu Doctors College (Nursing), and MSU-IIT (Accountancy), with free tuition and P500 allowance.  She is the daughter of Julius Uy Racines (Batch '69) and Evelyn Chua-Racines, owners of JE Racines Enterprises, Tubod, Iligan City. --Igdono U. Caracho (Batch '66), Cebu, Philippines.

Marie Janiefer Q. Lee, Batch '87

Last Friday I attended the graduation of my daughter from nursery.  It was held at the Insular Life auditorium in Ayala Ave., Makati City.  Most of the program was done by the kids themselves.  One little girl led the singing of the National Anthem while another one led the prayer, and another one made the welcome address.  All through this I was just dumb-struck in my seat witnessing how these kids who are barely two feet tall and who could hardly pronounce some words could speak in front of a crowd with so much ease.  Something I guess I could never do in this lifetime nor in the next.

Back in elementary and high school I was always handpicked to represent our class whenever there’s a speech contest.  This is all because our teachers know that I have a good memory.  But public speaking is more than just a memory job, it takes lots of guts to make it through.  And this is one component that I don’t have.  But my teachers just never seem to notice.

When I graduated from elementary and was asked to give a speech in Chinese, Sian Si Hong-hong (Ms. Glenda Sy-Cabilan) almost made me record my speech at home so that I could just lip-sync on stage.  I guess she was the only one who was sensitive enough to know that I might faint before I finish my speech.

My most unforgettable public speaking engagement was when I was in fourth year high school.  I represented the school in an oratorical contest sponsored by the Rotary Club.  It was held at the Plaza Theater.  And the audience was composed of students from all the participating schools both public and private schools.  And sad to say I made a big fool of myself.  My coach knew that I lack the fighting spirit for it so she gave me a “time and tested” tip, she told me to pin some keys inside my blouse.  She said that this would make me disregard the people in front of me.  As crazy as this may sound but I was willing to hang, pin and wear anything just to help me get through that ordeal.  Well, about halfway through the speech my lips went dry and I couldn’t speak.  All I could think of were the keys inside my blouse.  I was wondering if the keys could open the grounds for me so I could just vanished into thin air.  I kept consoling myself that after that contest I’d never see those people again anyway, nor will they see me again.  Since I’d be going off to college the next year.  But sometimes fate could play tricks on us, and she must be laughing her head off when I entered college.  Because the first time I stepped inside my dorm the same group who were the contestants at that oratorical contest were there too.  And for that first year in my new home at the Kalayaan Residence Hall inside U.P. Diliman, I was actually living with the same people who saw me at my worst.  Thank goodness none of them ever mentioned about that boo-boo and they were decent enough not to scratch my name out of the list of the so-called “cream of the crop”.

I really don’t know how to psyche myself into speaking in front of a crowd without getting sweaty palms and trembling knees.  I could make a heart-wrenching performance when I’m alone practicing in front of a mirror.  In front of a crowd is another story and it seems like it’s always a horror story for me.  This is why I really take my hat off to those who can speak well in public.  No matter how boring the speaker is or how irrelevant the topic is for me, I would always make sure to listen intently.  It’s because I know that no matter how many bunches of keys I would pin inside my blouse, I’d never be able summon enough courage to speak in public with ease.  I’m only good at “private speaking”.

Friday, Mar. 28th, the happy sound of "Kiong hee din pig giap" will be heard in Chinese-Filipino homes throughout Iligan City.  It's graduation day at Lanao Chung Hua School.

Graduating students of Kindergarten 2, Grade 6 and the Fourth Year have an extra treat.  Their Baccalaureate Mass, followed by the "Tribute to the Parents", will be the very first service ever held in the new Resurrection of the Lord Chinese-Filipino Catholic Community Church.

It is not simply the physical proximity of the church and LCHS that links them (the church is a two-minute walk from the school), nor only the fact that both are at the service of the Chinese-Filipinos.  The greatest link comes perhaps from the fact that the majority of the founding members of the community and builders of the church complex are LCHS Alumni!  And almost all the members of the local Iligan Chapter of the nation-wide Filipino-Chinese Catholic Youth (FCCY), as well as the many students of religious education provided by the Resurrection Community, are LCHS students themselves!  And since the community's formation center has not yet been built, LCHS is the venue for Sunday School; Catholic Christian education where many of the teachers are LCHS Alumnae.

The first ethnic Chinese parish dates from 1587 in the Manila area, and the need for communities of worship where Tsinoys can integrate their culture, traditions, language and faith has been supported by generation after generation of bishops and church leaders.  For a long time Iligan has been home to the St. Michael Filipino-Chinese Catholic Ladies Circle.  Then came the local chapter of the Filipino-Chinese Catholic Youth (FCCY).  Later, with the help of Fr. Gil Escalante and the members of the San Lorenzo Ruiz Filipino-Chinese Catholic Community of Cagayan de Oro, the Tsinoy families in Iligan were encouraged to form a community where the entire family could worship and grow in God's grace.  And so in 1997, with the encouragement and blessings of the Bishop of Iligan, the Most Rev. Emilio L. Bataclan, D.D., the community was born!

After a short time, the need for a place to worship, a place to meet, a place to learn, was greatly felt, and preparations began to acquire land and build a church, formation center and convento.  After much work and fundraising, land was purchased quite near LCHS and then construction began.  Fundraising continued, and the building continued as the funds appeared.  Meanwhile, the community continued to grow and meet in different churches they "borrowed" every Sunday for Eucharist, in different homes for meetings, in LCHS for catechism and youth workshops.

Life in the Resurrection of the Lord Chinese-Filipino Catholic Community continues to be lively and life giving.

The choir, which sings in Mandarin, Fookien, Tagalog, Visayan and English, meets at least once a week.

 - Catechism classes are held Sunday after Mass;
 - The Youth group and Singles meet often for Bible Study and reflection;
 - The different prayer groups in the community are hosted by different members every few weeks.
 - There are those who visit the sick and comfort the families of the recently deceased.
 - Days of recollection for the community are scheduled as often as possible, and such noted Chinese-Filipino religious leaders such as Jesuits Fr. Danny Huang and Bro. Ari Dy, San Lorenzo Mission Institute's Frs. Peter Tieng and Bong Lo, Frs. Gil Escalante and Abet Uy of Cagayan de Oro, and Redemptorist Fr. Manoling Dy have blessed the community with their presence and insights.

The Baccalaureate Mass of Lanao Chung Hua School is the very first service in the new church, beginning a new chapter in the life of Chinese-Filipinos in Iligan City.

Holy Week will see the following liturgies:

 Palm Sunday (April 13) at 8 am;
 Holy Thursday (April 17) at 6 pm;
 Good Friday (April 18) 6 am Stations of the Cross and 2:30 pm the Passion of Our Lord;
 Holy Saturday (April 19) the Easter Vigil at 6 pm;
 Easter Sunday (April 20) Mass will begin at 8 am.

There is still so much left to be done.  If you would like to be a part of this wonderful project of building the Resurrection of the Lord Chinese-Filipino Catholic Community Church Compound, please contact LCHS Alumnus Mr. Vy Beng Hong at 0917-716-2319 or Mr. Igdono Caracho at 0917-716-2000.  We are building a better tomorrow by being the best we can today.

Emceeing a Wedding Reception
By Charles O. Sy
Batch 1967

Wedding receptions these days have become more and more elaborate.  Unlike a few decades ago, the reception now includes more elaborate programs that make the job of the emcee more demanding than ever.

As we discussed in our previous article ("When You Are the Master of Ceremonies," Spectrum, Mar. 3, 2003), the foremost preparation on the part of the emcee is to obtain the program well ahead of time.  Secure and study all significant information about the wedding entourage, the program participants and their presentations.

In a formal reception, the party commences with the parade of the wedding entourage into the reception hall.  It is the job of the emcee to announce each member of the entourage as he or she enters the hall. Once they are all settled in their respected seats, it is customary for the emcee to begin the reception program with a brief opening statement.  Your opening salvo need not be elaborate. A concise description of the occasion will serve to break the ice.  A standard opening statement would be: "We are gathered here today to celebrate a happy occasion.  For today we all stand as witnesses to a celebration of love between John and Mary.  A love that began and flourished over a period of five wonderful years. This beautiful relationship culminated earlier today when John and Mary, with the blessings of their respective parents, were united for all eternity in the Holy Sacrament of Matrimony, at the St. Michael Cathedral."

Having said that, the emcee may proceed to introduce the dignitaries seated at the head table.  Your introduction may start with the principal sponsors, followed by the parents of the bride and the groom. It is advisable to introduce the principal sponsors in the order of their seats from one end of the head table to the other.  That will make it easier for the audience as well as the video camera man to follow your presentation.  A sentence or two will suffice to describe each of them.  A more elaborate introduction is reserved for the bride and groom as they are the stars of the occasion.  A basic introduction should include a little personal information about the bride and groom, such as their educational background, professional accomplishments, hobbies and, whenever appropriate, how they met each other.  If you are a close friend of either the bride or the groom, you can afford to be playful and throw in a little teasing or minor roasting to spice up your introduction.  An example would be: "As you all know, our groom is a man of many talents and good looks. He got his good looks from his father -- who is a plastic surgeon."

A formal toast to the newly-weds normally follows the introduction.  By tradition, a toast is proposed by a relative or a close friend of either the bride or the groom.  If there is none, the emcee should propose the toast on their behalf.  It is usually at this juncture when people in the audience will be clinking their glasses for the groom to kiss the bride.  I once emceed a reception where the groom appeared hesitant to heed the audience's request.  So I said, "Apparently, our groom is too shy to kiss the bride.  If he doesn't want to do it, then I'll do it for him."  The groom kissed the bride immediately.

It will help a great deal for the emcee to anticipate potential gaps in the proceedings.  One such portion is the wedding cake ceremony.  It usually takes a little time for the new couple to step down from their pedestal to approach the wedding cake table.  A few ad libs can work wonders as the newly-weds take their time towards the table.  The emcee may unleash a few gags about the newly-weds or some one-liners on love and marriage.  If you are not comfortable with one-liners, you may read a few verses from a love poem or give the audience a little insight on the significance of the wedding cake ceremony.  The important thing is not to allow this brief gap to cause the attention of the audience to wander away elsewhere.  I remember on one occasion when guests in the audience started to become noisy by chattering with one another as the bride and groom walked silently towards the wedding cake.  The alert emcee leaped to his feet and spoke into the microphone, "As you can see, our new bride's groom is gently holding the hand of the bride on their way to slice their wedding cake.  It is said that before marriage, when a man holds his wife's hand, it is for love.  After marriage, it could be for self-defense."  With that, he brought the house down and recaptured the undivided attention of the crowd on the unfolding scenario.

From here the couple will proceed to release a pair of doves from a symbolic wedding bell.  Rather than just standing there and observing the ritual in silence, the emcee will do well to say something about the significance of the ritual.  A brief statement may run like this:  "Our new couple will now release the pair of doves from the wedding bell. This ceremony symbolizes the beginning of our new couple’s journey of life. This serves as a reaffirmation that love and peace shall reign in their union as they soar together on their new life as husband and wife."

There may be a few entertainment numbers or a few customary dances in between these parts of the program.  As the emcee, you can help maintain audience interest by giving the audience a brief introduction about each performer as you present each of them for their parts.

One difficult part for the emcee is the bridal bouquet and garter ceremony.  It is usually this portion which can drag the proceedings. Most people are reluctant to step forward for the tossing of the bridal bouquet involving single ladies and the symbolic garter for the bachelors.  If you as the emcee are not too familiar with the friends of the new couple, it is advisable to simply pass the microphone to either the bride or the groom to exhort their friends one by one to come forward.  This will help speed up the proceedings and prevent the ceremony from turning into a drag.

As in proposing a toast, the party usually concludes with the newly-weds or a family member rising to thank their guests.  There are also occasions where the task is left to the emcee.  In which case, you may do so by saying, "On behalf of John and Mary, and their respective parents, Mr. and Mrs. Efren Go, and Mr. and Mrs. Jerome Lim, I am pleased to convey to you their profound gratitude for all your greetings and gifts, and for taking the time to grace this occasion with your presence.  I'm sure our new couple will treasure this wonderful moment that you have shared with them for the rest of their life.  Thank you all and have a nice day."

Remember the first man to walk on the moon, Neil Armstrong?  The following is a letter from a reader in Kalibo, Aklan, which appeared in a recent issue of The Philippine Star:

With his left foot touching the moon’s surface first, Neil Armstrong actually said, “That’s one small step for a man, one giant leap for mankind.” The letter “a” was lost in transmission.

Anyway, as he was about to board the lunar landing vehicle back to Earth, he said to no one in particular, “Good luck, Mr. Gorsky.”  NASA thought it must be a remark in friendly competition with a Russian cosmonaut, but a check revealed there was no one in that name.

Journalists/reporters prodded him on who Mr. Gorsky was, but Neil Armstrong just kept mum about it until some time later when again the same question popped up.  The Gorskys have long been gone by then, so he told the story.  The Gorskys were their neighbors when he was a kid. One day as he was about to pick up a stray baseball that landed in the Gorskys’ lawn, he overheard Mrs. Gorsky tell her husband, ”Sex, you want sex? You’ll get sex when the kid next door walks on the moon.”

This is a true story!

The article brings into sharp focus how fast change occurs in today’s world.

Several years back, people relied on the post office and telegrams to relay messages.  Today, people rely on the cell phone, fax or the e-mail. With the cell phone and its SMS or “text,” companies providing beeper service like EasyCall had to fold up.  Vinyl records were replaced by audiocassettes, which in turn are in danger of being replaced by CDs.  Southeast Asian nations today view with trepidation the juggernaut that is China, and are wracking their heads on how to counter the challenges that the behemoth poses.

A Chinese couplet powerfully illustrates the massive, inexorable force of change.  It goes thus:

“The Yangtze River’s rear waves push aside its front waves
The world’s new generations overtake its old generations.”

Rotary International has formed a commission to study how the technological, political, sociological and moral-climate changes occurring at dizzying speeds will impact on the Rotary movement.

Rotarians, as professionals or businessmen, as well as business and industrial firms, should constantly upgrade or armor themselves with new knowledge and paradigms, new skills and equipment, so as to be able not only to survive but also to flourish in the ever-changing environment.
