My fellow Augustinian Law students, It's been a long year for me.

You may always

see me around the corridor of Rhada or FLD , inside the Library in deep slumber ,
inside the SAL lounge drinking my coffee , Printing something at the Law office, or
just sitting listening to my teacher like a true Augustinian good boi. Now as I step
down ,I hope I was a good President. I hope in your eyes I was serving you. I hope
I was able to satisfy your needs and give your wants. But for me one thing that I
can assure you. Every day, I learned from you. You made me a better President,
and you made me a better man. Over the course of this administration, I've seen
unity in this college. Where students gets out from their comfort zones just to give
pride for this college. I've seen how this college became a power house of Moot
Court in the South east Asia. Shout out to the Parliament Chair Mr. Jeremy Moreno.
I would also like to recognize their achievements on the International
Humanitarian Rights Mootcourt Competition where team IHL composed of Wade ,
Junine , Keysie and Ricard reached the Qualifiers. Also, the Teehankee team
composed of Junine , Mitzi, Fyda and Tokie where they represented the college at
the Teehankee Moot Court competition held in Ateneo De Manila. I would also like
to recognize our Stetson Team composed of Wade, Charven, Jesse and Zarah
where my good friend Wade was considered as one of the best oralist in the South
East Asia. Let's give a hand to our MOOT COURT WARRIORS! BULAHAN KAMO!
Further, I've seen students sacrifice their time to attend classes just to help and
serve our Bar Takers. Kudos to the Bar Operations for filling the hearts of our Bar
takers and the stomach of our students! I would like to thank my supportive friend
Raemman Lagrada. Bulahan kamo! I've also seen women of the college of law
paving the way to excellence. Shout out to the Portia Queen who made this night
a come true. Bulahan kamo Portia! I've seen the growth of the Review Org where
Mr. Wade Comorro the president has initiated programs to establish the Review
Org. Bulahan kamo review org! I've seen also students excelling in sports! There
are so many of you! Thank you for representing the college! I've seen
transcendence of students. Where they go out from the four walls of the
classroom and help in nation building. We in the Sigma Alpha Lex has maintained
programs like our Sipitan out reach where we help a community to develop and
also this year we launched our program named Legal Literacy where we the law
students help in Public legaleducation and legal awareness. It is promotion
consciousness of legal culture, participation in the formation of laws and the rule
of law. What a year it has been! From Freshmen fair , Acquaintance party , St.
Augustine's week, Christmas Party up to Law Night! WEW! maybe you still cant
believe we pulled this whole thing off college of law! Let's give a hand to
ourselves! To our beloved Dean! Thank you for being supportive as ever. You were
a good Mentor and a better teammate. To our Adviser Judge Vicente Go and the

for the past year, youve been not only my girlfriend, but my best friend. And As
what Obama said to Michelle You took on a role you didnt ask for and made it
your own with grace and grit and style and good humor. You made the College of
Law a place that belongs to everybody. And a new generation sets its sights
higher because it has you as a role model. Thank you for making me SANE over
the course of my administration. The college should also thank you kung never
