DrEaM a dReAm...

I have been celebrating my birthdays in orphanages for a couple of years now and seeing the conditions of the people in each, I have always been praying and hoping, that someday, I could give them more than what I have been giving. Besides food and a feeling of love, I know that they also dream of having new clothes, new school supplies and some other things for entertainment like what we, ordinary children, want. At first I thought that at my very young age of 15, it is still impossible for me to conquer that dream of mine since I, myself, still depends on my parents for my own necessities. Being given the freedom to save some money for other necessities, I know that those still won't be enough to give every single person, in the orphanages, their simple wishes.But then, I guess, I have to be thinking twice now since I already have my colleagues with me who are all ready to support this big dream of mine. For my third week of classes for this school year, I already have made enough plans not only to dream my biggest dream, but also, to make it a reality. A million thanks to the very best friend of mine who gave me much courage and will to face this big challenge...Ria.

Performing has always been our passion and we would both die to be given an opportunity to have some formal trainings about theater, dancing, and anything that goes hand in hand with music and, of course, more of public speaking especially in the world of hosting. From this, the idea of a benefit concert had begun. Since the school's SALIW Dance Troupe,the dance group where we both belong, had accepted my plan for an outreach program, in order to generate a fund for such, I have decided to plan for a dance benefit. But then, considering my III-Nitrogen family, where many live through singing, I have decided to make it a combination of a sing and dance benefit concert. The objective is to air a benefit concert on the months of November, December and, if possible, even on January. I plan to ask the help of the church regarding this since the parish priest of San Roque, Fr. Omer, who has been very close with our family would definitely support such for he, himself, loves to share his blessings. With these comes special guests, of course, who would be gladly to perform without anything in return other than to help our brothers and sisters who are in need (I believe we have enough connections to find some kind hearted stars in this country.). All the proceeds, from the sold tickets and other donations, are to be given to different orphanages during the month of February. If there would still be some money left, it is, then, to be given to the Kapuso Foundation.

Impossible, as what you might say. But then, I believe that nothing is to be termed "impossible" once that it is for the betterment of this country. I know that with the help of God, and of course all of you who are expected to support this program, this dream that I am presently dreaming of would soon be a reality that would give inspiration to each and everyone of you readers...

...Dream big, aim high, believe and you will be able to achieve it no matter how hard it is to imagine.
