Congratulations

Sana mga nurses trained sa Pinas will serve the Philippines, kahit saglit, para umunlad ang bansa. Sana hindi para sa pagiibang bansa ang naiisip kundi serbisyo sa bayan.

passing the board exam is NOT

passing the board exam is NOT a game. it is a result of a lifelong endeavor. if you are not fit, you lose. you may try again, but not everyone will pass. at some point you have to admit being a loser, a be a winner on other test of life.

Take Your Downfall as a Challenged

In every game there is always a winner and a loser. But if you lose, that doesn't mean you will not win. It only remind you that your effort is not enough. Quitting should be the last thing that you should do. Winners are not quitters. Better luck next time to those who didn't make it.

Sayang ginastos ng mga magulang

yung mga bumagsak, mag-apply na kayo bilang sales lady sa SM, sayang ang pinagpaguran ng mga magugulang.

LPU in High Spirits

The LPU community was very enthusiastic with this development. Having two topnotchers has given the entire community a renewed vigor and inspiration.

Congratulations again to all board passers.
