lynette anne villarojas

Life (or fate, if you believe in it) is really unpredictable. It's ironic sometimes; it can throw a cruel joke on you or simply, when you least expect it, your life is not the life you envision to live. Just like Anne here, wala siyang idea whatsoever na magiging teacher sya someday. Sabi nga nya sa blog nya, "i never expected that i became a teacher.. but still i can say im very much inlove in my profession…" Biro nga na, isa na siyang noble teacher kahit hindi siya noble hehe But that is Anne, palabiro, gusto niyang patawanin lagi ang mga taong nasa paligid niya. Independent din siya, kaya niyang i-handle ang ano mang bagay.

Alvin "Blue" de Guzman

"Who are you to judge the life i live? I know I am not perfect and I don't live to be but before you point your fingers at me, make sure that your fingers are clean."

SI BLUE. Kilala mo si Blue. Kilala nila si Blue.

O baka mas kilala mo siya sa pangalang Alvin de Guzman. Kilala din si Blue bilang isang gay, bakla, bading, miyembro ng pedereyshen at third sex. Kung ano pa man ang tawag mo sa katulad nya, problema mo na yun dahil hindi naman niya ito kinakaila. Why should he/she? Dahil kagaya ng karamihan sa kanila, si Alvin ay isang napaka-responsableng tao, mapagmahal lalo na sa pamilya, masipag at marunong sa buhay. Eh ikaw? Tambay. Multong tambay. At wag kang aangas-angas kay Blue dahil kaya ka nyng bugbugin, gaya ng ginawa nya kay... kay... wag na pala nating pangalanan hehe Hayaan na lang nating sumagot si Alvin. Eto.

Si Alvin ay pinanganak sa Jalajala, Rizal nuong Feb 25, 1976 at nag-aral sya sa Philippine Maritime Institute Manila. Tama ang nabasa mo.

Alexis Perez Gutierrez

"May isang ilog kang nakita, tipikal na ilog, mukhang masarap lumangoy sa kanyang mapang-anyayang tubig. Nilubog mo ang isa mong paa, napaibig ka na agad sa kanya. Subalit sa iyong paglusong, muntik ka ng malunod dahil ito pala ay malalim, malalim para sa isang tipikal na ilog."

Si Alexis ay katulad ng ilog na ito. Sa una mo siyang makikilala, isa siyang tipikal na teenager; mahilig sa music, mmadaming kaibigan, mahilig sa internet at sa DOTA online game. Madaling mapapaibig sa kanya ang isang nilalang, subalit hanggang nakikilala mo siya ng mabuti, habang lumulubog ang paa mo sa kanyang mundo, malalalaman mong isa siyang malalim na tao. Madaming nalalaman at iniisip, iba ang pananaw sa mundo at sa kanyang paligid.

Five Questions:

1) anong gusto at ayaw mo sa jalajala?
gusto ko sa jalajala? Virgin pa kahit papano. >:) i mean, andun pa din yung ganda ng nature. :)

ako? simple. walang masyadong espesyal sa pagkatao ko. haha.

4) anong ugali mo ang sa palagay mo ay hindi alam ng karamihan sa nakakakilala sa iyo?
sobrang lambing. hahaha.

5) kung papipiliin ka ng isa lang, ano gusto mo, yumaman o sumikat?

Si Alexis ay isang taga Jalajala na ipinanganak nuong May 25, 1989 at karaniwang nag-aaral sa FEU East Asia College.

Languyin ang kanyang mundo, click ka sa kalokohan nya dito:

Emer Gellido

(jj guy of the month, january)

Isa na siguro sa mga pinaka-talentadong tao sa Jalajala si Emer Gellido. Kuya Emer sa karamihan dahil malapit siya sa halos lahat ng taong makakakilala niya. Maraming tao ang kahit papano ay naging bahagi ng marami niyang talent.

Gaya ko.

Kung mahilig kang mag-drawing, malamang ay nakita mo na ang kanyang mga watercolor paintings, ilang oil on canvas at ink on paper drawings. Nung nasa elementary pa ko, tinuruan din niya kami ng basic ng drawing. Nahasa ng konti ang kaalaman ko sa pagdrawing dahil sa kanya. Natatandaan ko pa, kinokopya ko ang mga drawings nya. Kung taga SMPS ka, malamang ay nakapagpa-drawing ka sa kanya ng mga projects o kaya ay yung mga lyrics ng kanta na nakasulat sa illustration board na may drawing ng dalawang nag-iibigan. Huwag magkaila, nagpadrawing ka nyan o kaya ay nakatanggap ng ganun sa isang manliligaw.

Kung musika naman ang trip mo, panigurado ding nakita mo na siyang tumipa at tumugtog at may ilang chords at plucking kang natutunan sa kanya. Kung hindi brush ang hawak nya, malamang ay isang gitara. Pero hindi naman sya kagaya nung iba na nagmamarunong, dahil kung may makikita siyang bago sa iyo ay hindi siya mahihiyang magpaturo. Ganyan si kuya Emer.

Kung isa ka naman tibak (aktibista ha, hindi yung mga taga 3rd district), hindi rin kayo nagkakalayo dahil naging tibak din sya dati, lalo na nung panahong nag-aaral sya ng Fine Arts sa UP Diliman. Tsaka karamihan naman ng artists ay may dugong tibak. Ipatugtog mo sa kanya ang lovesong ng mga tibak, ang "Kanlungan" ni Noel Cabangon at hahanga ka aba.

Kung palakaibigan ka naman, eh wag kang mag-alala dahil diyan mas kilala si Emer, sa pagiging isang tunay na kaibigan.

Kung mahilig ka namang bumili ng magagandang paintings, aba eh bisitahin mo ang studio nya.

wala?

Wala bang JJ personality for the month of December?

Last year, si baby Jesus ang featured natin. Dapat this year, sya ulit. Pero wala.

"Bakit?"

Bakit? Naalala mo ba Siya nitong December? Naalala mo ba Siya nitong Pasko?

Roxin Larazo

(jj guy of the month, november)

People of the world, meet The Frogman!

Pero kung taga Jalajala ka, malamang ay kilala mo na si Roxin Larazo dahil dati na siyang nasa paligid-ligid lang ng Jalajala, kakalat-kalat (hehe) pero huwag ka ng magtataka kung bigla ka niyang babatiin kung magkita man kayo sa Pasig, sa Makati, sa Mandaluyong, sa QC at ngayon ay sa loob ng GMA Kapuso Network kung saan siya nagtatrabaho.

Matagal ko ng kilala si Rox, nakakalaro sa baskeball, nakakainuman at nakakakwentuhan. At ang masasabi ko ay siya ang isa sa pinakamasayang taong makakasama mo sa buong buhay mo. Halos lahat ng patawang mauuso sa JJ, malamang ay kay Roxin nagsimula. Di na ako magtataka kung balang araw ay mabalitaan na lang nating comedy talent o writer sya sa GMA 7.

Pero hindi lang sa katatawanan maasahan ang taong ito. Kahit sa mga siryosong bagay ay di ka niya iiwanan dahil maaasahang kaibigan at kapamilya (este- kapuso) si Frogman. Madami siyang kaibigan, JBHAD, Jarfe, Simple Hearts at iba pa.

Kahit sa ibang lugar, kapag nakita ka nya at alam niyang taga Jalajala ka, babatiin ka niya. Sabi nga niya, sa lakad pa lang, alam na niyang taga Jalajala. Di sya suplado kahit sikat na errr-- Nagugulat na lang ako minsan kapag tatawagin niya ako kung nasa Maynila ako at nagkakasabay kami sa jeep. Hindi ko pa nga makikilala minsan dahil malaki na ang pinagbago niya in terms of looks, gwapings ba. Malamang ay nahahawa siya sa mga artistang kaibigan niya sa GMA.

Yan si Roxin.

Gerginne Balmes

(jj girl of the month, october)

We all heard about that typical stereotype of a nerdy student. Intelligent, yes. What else? Thick glasses, unkempt face, clothes only grandmamas would wear.

And this month, we have Gerginne. She’s intelligent, a really bright student. A nerdy type?

No way. Gerginne Balmes belongs to that small group of people. The cool, astig, intelligent type. She’s a consistent top student since her nursery grade in John Paul Integrated Montessori School in Jalajala. She’s now a first year highschool student in JPIS but guess what, not only is she a top student, Gerginne is also the class president.

It’s pretty obvious too that she’s a pretty, young lady. Sabi nga nung isang friend nya, habulin daw ng guys, meaning madaming nagkaka-crush sa kanya. And why not? She’s kind, approachable, makulit sa school. Tagatawa sa mga jokes, pero matindi din daw kapag humirit. But she’s not all that. She thinks and reasons older that what her actual age is. It’s not uncommon for Gerginne to give advices to her older cousins and aunts. She’s also a responsible daughter, a loving sister and a reliable friend.

Gerginne loves badminton, loves to dance specially ballroom dancing. She knows how to play a guitar, loves surfing the net at syempre, ang mawala-na-ang-lahat-wag-lang ang texting hehe…

jayson brillantes

(jj guy of the month, september)

Jayson Brillantes was born under the astrological sign of Cancer. According to his friends and family, he possesses most of the typical aspects of those people under this water sign. To wit:

Cancer guys are simple, mabait at hindi mayabang. They are sensitive to the feelings of people he cares about, people around him. Ganito si Jayson, they say.

Cancer guys are friendly, to the point that some people mistake them to be flirty with the opposite sex. But don’t let that fools you. Cancer guys, like Jayson, are loyal to the one they love. Madami magkaka-crush kay Jayson, may mga mai-inlove, but Jayson knows kung sino ang totoo nyang mahal. And he sticks to her.

But beware girls! As Jayson himself said, he can forgive, but he doesn’t forget (Yikes!) kaya behave dapat kayo hehe

Jayson is makulet in his own way, may sense of humor, masaya kasama but he has his other side too, na magaling makinig sa kwento at problema ng iba. And like the animal crab, with which the sign Cancer is known for, most Cancer guys are attached to their home, to their family. Importante sa kanila ang kanilang tirahan at ang pamilya. And this is evidenced by Jayson’s closeness to her sister.

Jayson studied highschool in SMPS, class of 2000, then went on to AMA Computer Learning Center. He likes basketball, billiards, action and love story movies.

And yes, he is single but girls, you have to wait a little longer because he is in a US Army base in Baghdad Iraq right now, working as a transport logistic supervisor.

Dickie Domingo

(jj person of the month, august)

Educators, the people who impart knowledge that pushes civilization forward, are the noblest human being amongst us. We are who we are because of those people, our school teachers, our parents, the elderly man of the village, who teach us what we need to know in order to be a productive part of a community we are all a part of. I have always had great respect for educators.

That is why I admire Mam Dickie Domingo, the woman behind John Paul Integrated Montessori School of Jalajala. JPIMS was established in our town about a decade ago but they have already produced very promising young men and women who, no doubt, will achieve their full potentials. Thanks, in large part, to the school they studied in, which imparts in them the solid educational foundation that these JPIMS alumni and current students will need as they traverse whichever life path they might choose. It's no wonder that she is also raising her own wonderful kids who adores her and consider her as the greatest mom in the world.

Mam Dickie is not only an educator to these JPIMS kids but also a friend, a confidante, a second mother away from home, a disciplinarian, a protector, a nurturer, that is why students who have stepped outside the JPIMS gate into the outside world still find their way going back to Mam Dickie and the JPIMS, may it be in person or thru the click of their computer mouse.

Mam Dickie attended Rizal High School in Pasig City (batch 77) and continues her studies in Colegio del Buen Consejo and Rizal Technological University. She likes Enya songs, bossanova, classical/broadway and christian songs.

She may not hail originally from Jalajala but Mam Dickie is as much a part of Jalajala as you and me because of the work she is doing in shaping Jalajala kids and the future generation.

margreth pillas

(jj girl of the month, july)

"There's nothing you can do that can't be done.
Nothing you can sing that can't be sung.
Nothing you can say but you can learn how to play the game
It's easy.


All you need is love, all you need is love,
All you need is love, love, love is all you need."

When a person almost have everything, beauty and brain, awesome personality, a good education, a nice, stable job, a loving family, great friends, most of the time, all he/she really need is love.

Just like Maggie here.

Margreth Pillas is a pretty 23-year-old lass who came from Brgy. Punta. She’s from a loving family, which she cares about deeply. She has lots of friends as she is easy and fun to be with. Di ka daw mao-OP kapag kasama mo siya kahit for the first time. Maggie is a jolly person but a very emotional one. That is probably why she loves senti, RNB and love songs. She may be emotional, but she is one tough chick. She’s independent in her own way, which is why her fave movies are So Close and Naked Weapon, movies about beautiful, tough women.

Maggie studied highschool in SMPS then went on to Jose Rizal University where she graduated with a computer engineering degree. She’s now a BPO associate in Accenture.

See? She almost have everything. But then, she describe her current state of relationship as “It’s Complicated”. Whoever is that guy, come on now, all she need is love.

Sabi nga nya: "they say a person needs 3 things to be truly happy in this world: someone to love, something to do and something to hope for."
