WE LOVE YOU SARAH. WALANG MAKAKAPALIT SAYO SA PUSO NAMING MGA POPSTERS.
Mabuti nalang may taga-summarize para d na masyadong mahaba ang i-b-BR ko.
Maraming salamat sa pag-post ng kwento mo Ate Leah.
Sa kwento mo pa lang halatang nag enjoy talaga ang lahat...
December 28, 2009, 6pm, St. Charbel Executive Village... Date, time and place to remember… second Christmas Party with Sarah & the popsters that I was able to attend. It was a very surreal event even though a little bit of confusion and the inability to eat whenever Sarah is around was experienced. Very much thankful that despite the very hectic schedule, Mommy Divine and Sarah was able to squeeze in a night to interact and be with the popsters.
As usual whenever a Sarah event is about to take place, you have to be early… have to condition yourself that you’re going to see Sarah face to face, be at the same place with her and be aware that you may be able to have a very, very, very close encounter with her (hopefully). Had to finish some work loads first before I can be at the event… I was with Moy (moy28asher) who traveled 12 hours from Bicol just to be able to attend the Christmas Party. Astig! We waited for Ate Lani (melanidmd) to arrive who’ll be coming from Cavite herself… we had our lunch first and waited for Tita Cristy as well who went to ABS-CBN to get some of her Sarah stuffs… Together with Ate Lani, Tita Cristy and Moy we went to Jollibee-Farmers Cubao to fetch some of the popsters who’ll be attending the party and will go with Tita Cristy since they don’t know how to go to the venue. Tita Cristy negotiated with van/fx drivers that will bring the rest of the popsters to the venue and off we went to St. Charbel and it was only past 4pm, that’s how excited we are to be there at the party. We arrived at the venue early for the call time. alt=':D' ] We waited for 6pm to strike, popsters who arrived early at the venue, greeted each other, exchange pleasantries. Met old and new friends, renew old ties and capture happy moments that popsters converge in one place to enjoy each other’s company and Sarah as well.
As 6pm draw nearer you can feel the excitement and hearts beating faster, anticipating a joyous night with Sarah and popsters. When the go signal was given, viola, a mass of popsters troop to St. Charbel Club House and lined at the entrance so that there will be orderly sitting arrangements and everyone who brought with them their exchange gifts was instructed to leave them at the entrance and each was numbered… then as each popster was seated we were tasked to make the numbers for the exchange gift…. Together with Kaye (sarah_is_the_best) we went table hopping and let the popsters who participated in the exchanging of gifts to draw their number/s. As we were doing our assigned task... popsters suddenly converge at the entrance…we were caught unaware that Sarah arrived at the venue!!! Drawing of numbers for the exchange gifts suddenly forgotten... It was around 7pm and all was agog and was trying to have that little space to get a glimpse of Sarah. Suddenly, it felt as if the earth literally stopped moving and almost all start clicking their cameras and straining each and everyone’s neck, hehehe!!! I saw Sarah wearing her sweetest smile, it was all worth it! She was wearing a blue blouse and black pants and her ever reliable sandals, hehehehe!!!! And yes…. She’s wearing her locks straight, long and black, that’s how Sunsilk work wonders on Sarah’s hair… hihihihi!!!! [img]https://sarahgeronimo.com/uploads/ipb/style_emoticons/legacy/smile.gif
Before the program starts, hosted by Ate Jenny and Kuya Erwin… Sarah gave a short message, thanking everyone for coming to the party and was just smiling all the time, hay!!!![/img] alt=':x' ] Everyone was instructed to take their respective seats so that everyone will have dinner. Mommy Divine lead the prayer and asked God that the food and everyone who came to the gathering will be blessed and be kept safe when it’s time to go home. But before dinner was served, a group of teenage boys danced on stage, Sarah watched intently and was generous in clapping and giving her appreciation. Then it was dinner time!!! As everyone was having their dinner and Sarah’s we (Kaye & I) continue with the drawing of numbers for the exchange gifts, we didn’t have the time to eat and had our dinner. Exchanging gifts were 166 all in all including Sarah’s, having the last number (166), and the number drawn by Sarah was 15, I asked Sarah to draw hers and she was left with no choice anymore since only one was left in the plastic box. One lucky popster was very happy when she draw 166. What she got was a treasured kiss and picture with Sarah.
After everyone had their dinner, the Churvas and Dyosas (Maegan, Lovejoy, Franz & Rheck) present a number and boy! Sarah was laughing out loud as evidenced by the vid shared by Ate Lani, she was especially happy when they performed Record Breaker with Rheck acting as Sarah… it was a good prod! And it’s just so joyous seeing Sarah, laughing and enjoying herself… it makes you realize that it’s that simple to make Sarah smile & laugh, that she’s not that complicated. She remains simple and down to earth. Everyone enjoyed watching the prod, laughter and clapping of hands reverberated in the venue. alt=':thumb:' ] Then Danna Pineda performed Ngayon, Bukas at Kailanman. And this girl could really sing! She got good voice! And Sarah joined her on-stage and sing some of the lines with Danna. Wow, dream come true for sure for Danna! Sharing and singing with The Popstar herself! Congrats!
Then game time was on its way! Ate Mhel and Mich were the one who conducted the games and the popsters was instructed to form three groups… The first game was PINAKA... pinakamahabang buhok, pinakamahabang kuko, etc… wasn’t able to remember what group won the PINAKA game. alt=':wacko:' ] Then PINOY HENYO was played. The 3 groups was instructed to just answer, Yes, No or Puwede and the category was of course related to Sarah, be it song, commercials, movies, etc. The game was hilarious and funny!!! Mommy Divine, Ma’am Chai and Sarah thoroughly enjoyed the game. One example was when it was Rheck’s time to guess what’s given to him, it was Mr. Clean, he said, “tao ba ito?” “commercial?” and he said “hayop ba ‘to?” everyone including Sarah had a good laugh and was happily reacting and even said where that “hayop" came from..? hahahahaha!!!! come to think of it, Cha-cha (Sarah’s dog pet fall in that category, “hayop.” hehehehe!!! )
Then it was exchanging gift time! First off, those who drew numbers one-ten, eleven-twenty and so on were asked to claim their gifts near the entrance… to save time, picture taking was simultaneously held… and table 1, 2, 3 and so forth were called on stage to have their group picture taken with Sarah seated on stage. We tried to make Sarah safe so that she won’t be mobbed by uber excited popsters…. hehehehe!!! Together with Maegan, Lovejoy and Franz, we took our place at Sarah’s right, Cris, Drix, Acel took their place at Sarah’s left. We held hands and tried to gave Sarah the space to be comfortable as possible. As the picture taking progress, we had time and chance to converse with Sarah a little bit whenever there was a lull. It was those little conversations that will forever be etched in our minds. Lovejoy said, “Sarah, gum o!” Sarah said, “Okay lang po, Thank you.” Smiled and gestures to her mouth. alt=':D' ]. I said, “Sarah, okay ka lang?” Sarah said, “I’m fine Ate, Okay lang ako, Salamat po.” And that sweet smile again... omg!!! alt=':wub:' ] We had our group picture taken with Sarah last after everyone had theirs. Then Sarah went back to her table and watch as the Ashlloyds present their prod number... it was met with wild cheer and clapping of hands… Then there were popsters who acted as Kanto Boys with matching pics to boot and performed their dance routine from RB Concert and some was from Kanto Boys prod in ASAP. Then a popster appeared on stage wearing Sarah’s face and had a mock duet with a popster wearing JL’s face and did a duet… Everyone enjoyed the prod! It was a hit!
She went back to her seat and Dindin from Bacolod sang Brokenhearted Girl. Then Baby Niq had a song number and sang an original song and gave in to the request of those present to sang the Popster Themesong. Sarah went up on stage and said thank you and she said quotable quotes. She asked what BALDIK means and someone answered Baliw at Adik! She smiled. She was asked to give a Christmas Message, “Ano’ng message ko? ‘di ako magaling dyan…”“Maraming salamat po sa inyong lahat, binigyan nyo po ako ng pagkakataon na makasama ang bawat isa sa inyo, Popsters!!! “Sarah Geronimo… alt=':music:' ]” “Hi Sarah! Sino ba ‘yon?” “Natutuwa naman ako, Baby Nique, aabgangan kita sa Philippine Music Industry Galing, hehehe!! Thank you Baby Nique ang ganda ng boses...” “ Syempre si Dindin din at si Danna Pineda, Dindin Dela Cruz, Dela Cruz…., Dela Cruz…hehehehe!, “E Ano naman ngayon?” “Thank you sa pagbahagi ng talent nyo ngayong gabi, sila Rheck, sobra akong nag enjoy, yong unang nagperform, yong taga-London… taga-London (british accent)…hehehehe!!!” “Churvas, tapos ang ashlloyds, “Sige ipagpatuloy nyo lang ang pagiging baldik…”, “Patay kayo! Sige mangarap kayong lahat, bahala kayo!” “Happy Dreaming!” “At syempre sa Savers, Savers!!!!” “Sa FMS! Sa Ashrik maraming salamat, Someone shouted, “Piolo!”, “Sino naman yon?“Lalo na yan, isang bonggang bonggang panaginip…hehehehe!” “Luckycharms, kami ni Luis, Why Not?” “Nakakatuwa kayong lahat maraming maraming salamat sa patuloy ninyong pagsuporta at pagmamahal saakin po, sa isang Sarah Geronimo, “Grabe, ilang taon na po? Six years? At andito pa rin po kayo, maraming maraming salamat, sana ganito pa rin tayo next year at sa susunod pa…oo” “At Happy New Year na sa ating lahat, yehey! Thank you po.” “Gusto nyo pa ba akong kumanta? Pwedeng acapella na lang?”
Then Sarah requested for Baby Nique to accompany her, I think Ate Jenny said for Sarah to sing solo, but Sarah said, “E gusto ko duet kami ni Baby Nique, hehehehe!!! “ “Para hindi halata na hind ko memorize ang lyrics ng YCG, hehehehe!!!” “Yan ang nagagawa ng prompter sa ASAP, hihihihi!!!” Went on to sing the first few lines of her YCG song and then when it was time for the next stanza, she sang again the first few lines and Sarah suddenly said, “Tama ba yon?, hihihihi!!!! Then she said, “Nakakahiya!!!!hehehehe!Tapos… Susunod…?!” “Okay, Chorus, nakakahiya naman…” “Iidolohin niyo pa ba si Sarah Geronimo?” Chorus: Oo!!!!!Naman!!!!! “Sino ba ‘yon, hehehehe!!” “Okay Chorus, Nakakahiya..." Then continue singing the Chorus of YCG and then sang the bridge and Sarah said, “Aminin, memorize ko ang bridge, hehehe!!!” alt=':D' ]
Then it was time for Sarah to go, but before she was able to leave the Club House, there were some who were able to have some of their DVDs/CDs, Sarah’s pictures signed by Sarah… there was a little difficulty with Sarah leaving the venue, since all were heading towards her direction as if everyone doesn’t want to end that night. We didn’t bother to squeeze our self in… we just danced on stage and waved goodbye to Sarah as we bid her adieu and wished her a Happy New Year. alt=';)' ]
Though there were some little glitz here and there the Party was a success, I bet that everyone enjoyed the night, there were some who weren’t able to have that solo moment with Sarah. But seeing Sarah and just staring at her face is enough to make everyone’s night a good experience to close 2009. It was a night that made us realize that no matter how short or how slim the chance of being able to get near Sarah is not a big deal at all, as long as we saw her happy, laughing, healthy and was thoroughly enjoying the night with her popsters, we all leave the venue with a smile written all over each others' faces. Because the mere presence of Sarah made our night extra special.
I am amaze. I could still picture how young Mia is and couldn't tell that this shot was taken by a kid.just wondering Ron, what camera did she use?
I packed very lightly gear-wise this trip bringing pretty much the bare essentials just enough for casual photography. I only learned of the party with a few hours to spare to make a lengthy drive from Cavite into QC, and most definitely did not plan on any sort of formal event coverage. It was really nice to sit back and enjoy most of the party catching up with everyone from last year's Grand EB - nearly a complete reunion with only a few missing. I was quite content not to take any pictures but when I saw Nique's guitar in hand, I couldn't resist and thought to myself when the time comes, I'll pick up my camera for old time's sake, promising everyone I'll shoot when it's her turn to perform. I only brought two AF lenses, an ultra-wide fisheye zoom and a medium telephoto. I used the 135L and Mia used the wide-angle lens - sharing just the one and only camera body that's with us - a Canon T1i aka 500d in the different global markets. She was dying to shoot as soon as I finished. I pre-set the camera's exposure settings in manual mode for her, but she was in charge of framing and composition and of course when to trip the shutter! I taught her one thing, the same I tell everyone else asking for advice or tips - just fill the frame with what you want. Actually for those a little older, it comes in two parts - 1. master the camera's controls and 2. Fill the frame with what you want. I haven't gotten around to teach her the independent manual controls for the camera yet, but will probably need to soon when she wants to become more proficient.
Just noticed Paul's pic of Nique & Mia above this post, she's holding the camera/lens combo for her shots!
If there's one Popster that I really admire and very proud of, besides Ate Mhel and Tita, ikaw yun kasi you're not just only talented, you have a good heart. I really believe that someday, you will also make it in the music industry. Bibihira lang ang kagaya mo na nakakapagsulat ng mga catchy songs. Saludo kami sayo. Congrats and keep up the good work!
I heard that you're also an RN. I'm really happy that someone in the group is also my colleague in the profession.
HAPPY NEW YEAR TO YOU AND TO EVERYONE!
Thanks kuya! alt=':rock:' ] .. it's really an honor po.. na bukod sa naipahayag ko ung nais kong ipahayag sa song, marami din ung tumangkilik at sumaludo dun. And xempre, di magiging possible un kung wala ang ating one-of-a-kind princess SARAH GERONIMO. .. We love you! alt=':rock:' ]
ayih! naks naman, ako din, nasa Nursing field. SN pa lang din. 4thyear. hehe. alt=':45sgWohoo:' ] alt=':20sgClap:' ]
kaka inspire ang upcoming teleserye ng ABS-CBN, Habang May Buhay - a Medical teleserye. Nurse si Ate Juday. alt=':11sgMuni:' ]
maganda kung si Bebe Sarah na lang gumanap noh, hehe. pero ok na din, papanuorin pa din yan ng madami.
Ngayon pa lang, wine-welcome ko na kayo sa Nursing profession. Pagbutihin niyo lang ang pag-aaral niyo. And treat NURSING not as an opportunity but as a vocation to help people. Excited na din ako sa teleserye ni Ms. Judy Ann. I'm sure madaming makaka-relate na kagaya natin sa medical profession.
THIS YEAR'S CHRISTMAS PARTY ===== We saw fans who came in droves from different places: Australia, UK, USA, Kuwait and from various provinces like Bacolod, Ilocos, Nueva Ecija etc. If I were to compare last year's Xmas party with this year, its obviously na mas madaming participants this year, mas organized yung event at mas nakikita mo si Sarah really really close. Nung last year, kasi mas subdued yung venue sa Popstar Salon, most of the time, nandoon sa loob si Sarah at off limits dun yung mga ibang fans.
For me, mas satisfied talaga ako on how things turned out with this year's Xmas Party compared with the last one. Sobrang nag-enjoy ako sa mga prods ng Popsters esp. yung ala Kanto Boys, at yung duet ni SG with the girl in pink (na may boses talaga in fairness) at yung girl na may guitar (which I think is extremely talented. Of course, nag-enjoy din naman ako sa food he he. Sosyal nga kasi Tamayo's pa ang nag-cater na usually nakikita natin sa labas ng studio ng ASAP.
The fact na nakita ko uli si Sarah, happy, healthy, in all smiles at bungisngis (na na-miss ko talaga ng BONGGANG BONGGA!) made may nearly-12 hour trip ALL WORTH-IT. Bonus na din yung narinig kong kumanta uli siya kahit isang 2 songs lang at may ka-duet. It was really an enjoyable and satisfying experience.
Special THANKS po kay Ate Mhel who was always very approachable and accomodating. Thanks to God that someone like her became our fanclub's Pres. Sobrang bait talaga niya. And to TITA CRISTY also na napaka-understanding at mapagbigay kasi she really made a way para mapa-sign ko kay SG yung 2 albums na dinala ko. THANK YOU PO TALAGA!
If there's one thing I've actually learned on the event itself, it would be about MOMMY DIVINE. Mabait pala talaga siya in person contrary to some media reports. I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw her on the middle of the road (malapit sa venue), papauwi na at NAGLALAKAD mag-isa. She even approached us and said "O saan kayo uuwi? Ingat kayo ha, thank you sa pagpunta." Ang bait pala talaga niya. Its no doubt kung saan nagmana si Sarah She's really a very humble person, and I think may ibang fans na naka-recognize sa kanya at balak sundan siya (siguro, to catch a glimpse of SG's house) pero thank GOD and someone along the way stopped them from following Mommy D. Even I myself, didn't even dare to follow her because I alway's value Sarah's privacy and we fans must learn to respect that.
I also remember midway during the program. Someone approached SG on her table with a bulk of CD's/mags na ipapa-autograph but the woman in Red dress (i think it's Viva's Maam Chai tama po ba?) begged to spare Sarah kasi masakit ang ulo niya even before the program started. I felt really sympathetic towards SG at gusto ko sanag pagsabihan yung fan na iyon (na sobrang kulit talaga). Pero Sarah was so mabait she even told her mother "Okay lang ako Mommy, kaya ko ito, nag-eenjoy naman ako" in response to Mommy D "Anak, okay ka lang ha, hindi na sumasakit yang ano mo."
Buti na lang at hindi masyadong halatang masakit ang ulo ni SG. I also noticed midway around the photographing session, Sarah covered her mouth with one hand to her hiccup, pero if you were a kin observer mapapansin mo talaga.
Siguro, we fans, should also learn that Sarah is just like us, a normal person with physiologic needs. Siguro nga kahit pagod talaga siya, she didn't even bother kasi mahal niya po tayong lahat. That's why she's doing and giving everything for us. We can do something in return not just by watching her shows and buying her albums but more importantly, we should also emulate her humbleness and simplicity, doing something na hindi/never masisira yung name niya and also PRAYING for her health and safety, and a better career next year.
GOOD LUCK SARAH! We will always be here for you no matter what happens (kahit makalimutan mo pa ang lyrics ng sarili mong mga songs he he)!!!
Nowelle, thanks sa compliment mo. Anyway, after the party medyo maraming nagpasign nung YCG at Music and Me since wala kasi itong malltour. At least nakita ni SARAH ang mga fans niya na bumili nung 2 album kaya mabilis itong nag platinum.
Regarding sa success ng party, mas bigger kasi ang venue mas maganda kasi pwedeng magkaroon talaga ng mga presentation unlike sa salon na games lang ang pwede mong magawa. OMG, hindi ko alam na meron siyang dinaramdam that time at very professional talaga BEBE natin. She knows that her presence is a big factor para mapasaya niya tayong lahat at ganun din naman tayo kitang-kita na nag-enjoy siya ng bonggang-bongga. Baka nga nawala yung sakit ng ulo o baka yung bagong bunot nyang ngipin dahil sa sobrang saya nung party.
Tama ka Nowelle, napaka-humble ni Mam Divine coz imagine ilang kanto rin ang layo ng clubhouse sa house nila and yet naglakad lang pala siyang mag-isa. Pwede naman siyang magpasundo sa driver nila pero hindi niya ginawa. At least nalaman ngayon ng lahat na abot-kamay lang talaga silang mag-ina.
tita Cristy & Nowelle, kung hndi me ngkkmali, galing p po c sarah s angelicum dat day, bgo po s mkipag-christmas party s mga popsters. my outreach program po s angelicum at nndun sya to give support s mga less fortunate n mga bata. npanood q po s yt. npkabait po pla tlg ni sarah.
kht my dinaramdam n go p rn ng go.
bkt po ngllkad c mommy divine pauwi s kanila. bkt po d nya kasama c sarah s pg-uwi nya?
salamat po s lht ng ngshare ng pics & vids ng christmas party nyo w/ sarah. sobra me ng-enjoy s kppnood ng mga prod ng mga popsters. ilang oras dn ang ngugol q d2. but worth it nmn. best effort lht ng mga popsters, hehehe...
KEEP IT UP POPSTERS! esp. BABY NIQUE. GALING MO GIRL!
Haven't thanked yet ang lahat ng personalities na behind sa party na 'to. Salamat po. I'm glad na part ako ng celebration na'to.
Maraming salamat to the Geronimo Family for your time and of course, for sharing Sarah G with us (with her busy schedule and all).
Thank you Sarah Geronimo!
Thank you Lord for THE Sarah Geronimo!

And to all those who shared (and will be sharing) their sarah experience, vids and photos, thank you very much from the bottom of my cholesterol-laden heart. hehe (pramis diet na ako on jan. 2, 2001). thanks for making us sarah lovers happy. God bless you all! alt=':yay' ]
Hi Ate Tin! alt=':wave:' ] It was heaven seeing Sarah enjoying and being the "audience" for a change... alt=':T' ]

Then it was time for Sarah to go, but before she was able to leave the Club House, there were some who were able to have some of their DVDs/CDs, Sarah’s pictures signed by Sarah… there was a little difficulty with Sarah leaving the venue, since all were heading towards her direction as if everyone doesn’t want to end that night.

Though there were some little glitz here and there the Party was a success, I bet that everyone enjoyed the night, there were some who weren’t able to have that solo moment with Sarah. But seeing Sarah and just staring at her face is enough to make everyone’s night a good experience to close 2009. It was a night that made us realize that no matter how short or how slim the chance of being able to get near Sarah is not a big deal at all, as long as we saw her happy, laughing, healthy and was thoroughly enjoying the night with her popsters, we all leave the venue with a smile written all over each others' faces. Because the mere presence of Sarah made our night extra special.
anu bayan ... sna ginawa na lng itong tagalog .... nakakanosebleed ee... heheh..!!!
December 28, 2009, 6pm, St. Charbel Executive Village... Date, time and place to remember… second Christmas Party with Sarah & the popsters that I was able to attend. It was a very surreal event even though a little bit of confusion and the inability to eat whenever Sarah is around was experienced. Very much thankful that despite the very hectic schedule, Mommy Divine and Sarah was able to squeeze in a night to interact and be with the popsters.
As usual whenever a Sarah event is about to take place, you have to be early… have to condition yourself that you’re going to see Sarah face to face, be at the same place with her and be aware that you may be able to have a very, very, very close encounter with her (hopefully). Had to finish some work loads first before I can be at the event… I was with Moy (moy28asher) who traveled 12 hours from Bicol just to be able to attend the Christmas Party. Astig! We waited for Ate Lani (melanidmd) to arrive who’ll be coming from Cavite herself… we had our lunch first and waited for Tita Cristy as well who went to ABS-CBN to get some of her Sarah stuffs… Together with Ate Lani, Tita Cristy and Moy we went to Jollibee-Farmers Cubao to fetch some of the popsters who’ll be attending the party and will go with Tita Cristy since they don’t know how to go to the venue. Tita Cristy negotiated with van/fx drivers that will bring the rest of the popsters to the venue and off we went to St. Charbel and it was only past 4pm, that’s how excited we are to be there at the party. We arrived at the venue early for the call time. alt=':D' ] We waited for 6pm to strike, popsters who arrived early at the venue, greeted each other, exchange pleasantries. Met old and new friends, renew old ties and capture happy moments that popsters converge in one place to enjoy each other’s company and Sarah as well.
As 6pm draw nearer you can feel the excitement and hearts beating faster, anticipating a joyous night with Sarah and popsters. When the go signal was given, viola, a mass of popsters troop to St. Charbel Club House and lined at the entrance so that there will be orderly sitting arrangements and everyone who brought with them their exchange gifts was instructed to leave them at the entrance and each was numbered… then as each popster was seated we were tasked to make the numbers for the exchange gift…. Together with Kaye (sarah_is_the_best) we went table hopping and let the popsters who participated in the exchanging of gifts to draw their number/s. As we were doing our assigned task... popsters suddenly converge at the entrance…we were caught unaware that Sarah arrived at the venue!!! Drawing of numbers for the exchange gifts suddenly forgotten... It was around 7pm and all was agog and was trying to have that little space to get a glimpse of Sarah. Suddenly, it felt as if the earth literally stopped moving and almost all start clicking their cameras and straining each and everyone’s neck, hehehe!!! I saw Sarah wearing her sweetest smile, it was all worth it! She was wearing a blue blouse and black pants and her ever reliable sandals, hehehehe!!!! And yes…. She’s wearing her locks straight, long and black, that’s how Sunsilk work wonders on Sarah’s hair… hihihihi!!!!
Before the program starts, hosted by Ate Jenny and Kuya Erwin… Sarah gave a short message, thanking everyone for coming to the party and was just smiling all the time, hay!!!! alt=':x' ] Everyone was instructed to take their respective seats so that everyone will have dinner. Mommy Divine lead the prayer and asked God that the food and everyone who came to the gathering will be blessed and be kept safe when it’s time to go home. But before dinner was served, a group of teenage boys danced on stage, Sarah watched intently and was generous in clapping and giving her appreciation. Then it was dinner time!!! As everyone was having their dinner and Sarah’s we (Kaye & I) continue with the drawing of numbers for the exchange gifts, we didn’t have the time to eat and had our dinner. Exchanging gifts were 166 all in all including Sarah’s, having the last number (166), and the number drawn by Sarah was 15, I asked Sarah to draw hers and she was left with no choice anymore since only one was left in the plastic box. One lucky popster was very happy when she draw 166. What she got was a treasured kiss and picture with Sarah.
After everyone had their dinner, the Churvas and Dyosas (Maegan, Lovejoy, Franz & Rheck) present a number and boy! Sarah was laughing out loud as evidenced by the vid shared by Ate Lani, she was especially happy when they performed Record Breaker with Rheck acting as Sarah… it was a good prod! And it’s just so joyous seeing Sarah, laughing and enjoying herself… it makes you realize that it’s that simple to make Sarah smile & laugh, that she’s not that complicated. She remains simple and down to earth. Everyone enjoyed watching the prod, laughter and clapping of hands reverberated in the venue. alt=':thumb:' ] Then Danna Pineda performed Ngayon, Bukas at Kailanman. And this girl could really sing! She got good voice! And Sarah joined her on-stage and sing some of the lines with Danna. Wow, dream come true for sure for Danna! Sharing and singing with The Popstar herself! Congrats!
Then game time was on its way! Ate Mhel and Mich were the one who conducted the games and the popsters was instructed to form three groups… The first game was PINAKA... pinakamahabang buhok, pinakamahabang kuko, etc… wasn’t able to remember what group won the PINAKA game. alt=':wacko:' ] Then PINOY HENYO was played. The 3 groups was instructed to just answer, Yes, No or Puwede and the category was of course related to Sarah, be it song, commercials, movies, etc. The game was hilarious and funny!!! Mommy Divine, Ma’am Chai and Sarah thoroughly enjoyed the game. One example was when it was Rheck’s time to guess what’s given to him, it was Mr. Clean, he said, “tao ba ito?” “commercial?” and he said “hayop ba ‘to?” everyone including Sarah had a good laugh and was happily reacting and even said where that “hayop" came from..? hahahahaha!!!! come to think of it, Cha-cha (Sarah’s dog pet fall in that category, “hayop.” hehehehe!!! )
Then it was exchanging gift time! First off, those who drew numbers one-ten, eleven-twenty and so on were asked to claim their gifts near the entrance… to save time, picture taking was simultaneously held… and table 1, 2, 3 and so forth were called on stage to have their group picture taken with Sarah seated on stage. We tried to make Sarah safe so that she won’t be mobbed by uber excited popsters…. hehehehe!!! Together with Maegan, Lovejoy and Franz, we took our place at Sarah’s right, Cris, Drix, Acel took their place at Sarah’s left. We held hands and tried to gave Sarah the space to be comfortable as possible. As the picture taking progress, we had time and chance to converse with Sarah a little bit whenever there was a lull. It was those little conversations that will forever be etched in our minds. Lovejoy said, “Sarah, gum o!” Sarah said, “Okay lang po, Thank you.” Smiled and gestures to her mouth. alt=':D' ]. I said, “Sarah, okay ka lang?” Sarah said, “I’m fine Ate, Okay lang ako, Salamat po.” And that sweet smile again... omg!!! alt=':wub:' ] We had our group picture taken with Sarah last after everyone had theirs. Then Sarah went back to her table and watch as the Ashlloyds present their prod number... it was met with wild cheer and clapping of hands… Then there were popsters who acted as Kanto Boys with matching pics to boot and performed their dance routine from RB Concert and some was from Kanto Boys prod in ASAP. Then a popster appeared on stage wearing Sarah’s face and had a mock duet with a popster wearing JL’s face and did a duet… Everyone enjoyed the prod! It was a hit!
She went back to her seat and Dindin from Bacolod sang Brokenhearted Girl. Then Baby Niq had a song number and sang an original song and gave in to the request of those present to sang the Popster Themesong. Sarah went up on stage and said thank you and she said quotable quotes. She asked what BALDIK means and someone answered Baliw at Adik! She smiled. She was asked to give a Christmas Message, “Ano’ng message ko? ‘di ako magaling dyan…”“Maraming salamat po sa inyong lahat, binigyan nyo po ako ng pagkakataon na makasama ang bawat isa sa inyo, Popsters!!! “Sarah Geronimo… alt=':music:' ]” “Hi Sarah! Sino ba ‘yon?” “Natutuwa naman ako, Baby Nique, aabgangan kita sa Philippine Music Industry Galing, hehehe!! Thank you Baby Nique ang ganda ng boses...” “ Syempre si Dindin din at si Danna Pineda, Dindin Dela Cruz, Dela Cruz…., Dela Cruz…hehehehe!, “E Ano naman ngayon?” “Thank you sa pagbahagi ng talent nyo ngayong gabi, sila Rheck, sobra akong nag enjoy, yong unang nagperform, yong taga-London… taga-London (british accent)…hehehehe!!!” “Churvas, tapos ang ashlloyds, “Sige ipagpatuloy nyo lang ang pagiging baldik…”, “Patay kayo! Sige mangarap kayong lahat, bahala kayo!” “Happy Dreaming!” “At syempre sa Savers, Savers!!!!” “Sa FMS! Sa Ashrik maraming salamat, Someone shouted, “Piolo!”, “Sino naman yon?“Lalo na yan, isang bonggang bonggang panaginip…hehehehe!” “Luckycharms, kami ni Luis, Why Not?” “Nakakatuwa kayong lahat maraming maraming salamat sa patuloy ninyong pagsuporta at pagmamahal saakin po, sa isang Sarah Geronimo, “Grabe, ilang taon na po?

Thank you po.” “Gusto nyo pa ba akong kumanta? Pwedeng acapella na lang?”
Then Sarah requested for Baby Nique to accompany her, I think Ate Jenny said for Sarah to sing solo, but Sarah said, “E gusto ko duet kami ni Baby Nique, hehehehe!!! “ “Para hindi halata na hind ko memorize ang lyrics ng YCG, hehehehe!!!” “Yan ang nagagawa ng prompter sa ASAP, hihihihi!!!” Went on to sing the first few lines of her YCG song and then when it was time for the next stanza, she sang again the first few lines and Sarah suddenly said, “Tama ba yon?, hihihihi!!!! Then she said, “Nakakahiya!!!!hehehehe!Tapos… Susunod…?!” “Okay, Chorus, nakakahiya naman…” “Iidolohin niyo pa ba si Sarah Geronimo?” Chorus: Oo!!!!!Naman!!!!! “Sino ba ‘yon, hehehehe!!” “Okay Chorus, Nakakahiya..." Then continue singing the Chorus of YCG and then sang the bridge and Sarah said, “Aminin, memorize ko ang bridge, hehehe!!!” alt=':D' ]

As everyone was having their dinner and Sarah’s we (Kaye & I) continue with the drawing of numbers for the exchange gifts, we didn’t have the time to eat and had our dinner. Exchanging gifts were 166 all in all including Sarah’s, having the last number (166), and the number drawn by Sarah was 15, I asked Sarah to draw hers and she was left with no choice anymore since only one was left in the plastic box. One lucky popster was very happy when she draw 166. What she got was a treasured kiss and picture with Sarah. alt=':T' ]
After everyone had their dinner, the Churvas and Dyosas (Maegan, Lovejoy, Franz & Rheck) present a number and boy! Sarah was laughing out loud as evidenced by the vid shared by Ate Lani, she was especially happy when they performed Record Breaker with Rheck acting as Sarah… it was a good prod! And it’s just so joyous seeing Sarah, laughing and enjoying herself… it makes you realize that it’s that simple to make Sarah smile & laugh, that she’s not that complicated. She remains simple and down to earth. Everyone enjoyed watching the prod, laughter and clapping of hands reverberated in the venue. alt=':thumb:' ] Then Danna Pineda performed Ngayon, Bukas at Kailanman. And this girl could really sing! She got good voice! And Sarah joined her on-stage and sing some of the lines with Danna. Wow, dream come true for sure for Danna! Sharing and singing with The Popstar herself! Congrats!
Then game time was on its way! Ate Mhel and Mich were the one who conducted the games and the popsters was instructed to form three groups… The first game was PINAKA... pinakamahabang buhok, pinakamahabang kuko, etc… wasn’t able to remember what group won the PINAKA game. alt=':wacko:' ] Then PINOY HENYO was played. The 3 groups was instructed to just answer, Yes, No or Puwede and the category was of course related to Sarah, be it song, commercials, movies, etc. The game was hilarious and funny!!! Mommy Divine, Ma’am Chai and Sarah thoroughly enjoyed the game. One example was when it was Rheck’s time to guess what’s given to him, it was Mr. Clean, he said, “tao ba ito?” “commercial?” and he said “hayop ba ‘to?” everyone including Sarah had a good laugh and was happily reacting and even said where that “hayop" came from..? hahahahaha!!!! come to think of it, Cha-cha (Sarah’s dog pet fall in that category, “hayop.” hehehehe!!! )
Then it was exchanging gift time! First off, those who drew numbers one-ten, eleven-twenty and so on were asked to claim their gifts near the entrance… to save time, picture taking was simultaneously held… and table 1, 2, 3 and so forth were called on stage to have their group picture taken with Sarah seated on stage. We tried to make Sarah safe so that she won’t be mobbed by uber excited popsters…. hehehehe!!! Together with Maegan, Lovejoy and Franz, we took our place at Sarah’s right, Cris, Drix, Acel took their place at Sarah’s left. We held hands and tried to gave Sarah the space to be comfortable as possible. As the picture taking progress, we had time and chance to converse with Sarah a little bit whenever there was a lull. It was those little conversations that will forever be etched in our minds. Lovejoy said, “Sarah, gum o!” Sarah said, “Okay lang po, Thank you.” Smiled and gestures to her mouth. alt=':D' ]. I said, “Sarah, okay ka lang?” Sarah said, “I’m fine Ate, Okay lang ako, Salamat po.” And that sweet smile again... omg!!! alt=':wub:' ] We had our group picture taken with Sarah last after everyone had theirs. Then Sarah went back to her table and watch as the Ashlloyds present their prod number... it was met with wild cheer and clapping of hands… Then there were popsters who acted as Kanto Boys with matching pics to boot and performed their dance routine from RB Concert and some was from Kanto Boys prod in ASAP. Then a popster appeared on stage wearing Sarah’s face and had a mock duet with a popster wearing JL’s face and did a duet… Everyone enjoyed the prod! It was a hit! alt=':T' ]
She went back to her seat and Dindin from Bacolod sang Brokenhearted Girl. Then Baby Niq had a song number and sang an original song and gave in to the request of those present to sang the Popster Themesong. Sarah went up on stage and said thank you and she said quotable quotes. She asked what BALDIK means and someone answered Baliw at Adik! She smiled. She was asked to give a Christmas Message, “Ano’ng message ko? ‘di ako magaling dyan…”“Maraming salamat po sa inyong lahat, binigyan nyo po ako ng pagkakataon na makasama ang bawat isa sa inyo, Popsters!!! “Sarah Geronimo… alt=':music:' ]” “Hi Sarah! Sino ba ‘yon?” “Natutuwa naman ako, Baby Nique, aabgangan kita sa Philippine Music Industry Galing, hehehe!!

Thank you po.” “Gusto nyo pa ba akong kumanta? Pwedeng acapella na lang?”
Then Sarah requested for Baby Nique to accompany her, I think Ate Jenny said for Sarah to sing solo, but Sarah said, “E gusto ko duet kami ni Baby Nique, hehehehe!!! “ “Para hindi halata na hind ko memorize ang lyrics ng YCG, hehehehe!!!” “Yan ang nagagawa ng prompter sa ASAP, hihihihi!!!” Went on to sing the first few lines of her YCG song and then when it was time for the next stanza, she sang again the first few lines and Sarah suddenly said, “Tama ba yon?, hihihihi!!!!

Then it was time for Sarah to go, but before she was able to leave the Club House, there were some who were able to have some of their DVDs/CDs, Sarah’s pictures signed by Sarah… there was a little difficulty with Sarah leaving the venue, since all were heading towards her direction as if everyone doesn’t want to end that night. We didn’t bother to squeeze our self in… we just danced on stage and waved goodbye to Sarah as we bid her adieu and wished her a Happy New Year. alt=';)' ]
Though there were some little glitz here and there the Party was a success, I bet that everyone enjoyed the night, there were some who weren’t able to have that solo moment with Sarah. But seeing Sarah and just staring at her face is enough to make everyone’s night a good experience to close 2009. It was a night that made us realize that no matter how short or how slim the chance of being able to get near Sarah is not a big deal at all, as long as we saw her happy, laughing, healthy and was thoroughly enjoying the night with her popsters, we all leave the venue with a smile written all over each others' faces. Because the mere presence of Sarah made our night extra special. alt=':T' ]
As usual, it is worth waiting for your post. Thank you very much leah.
December 28, 2009, 6pm, St. Charbel Executive Village... Date, time and place to remember… second Christmas Party with Sarah & the popsters that I was able to attend. It was a very surreal event even though a little bit of confusion and the inability to eat whenever Sarah is around was experienced. Very much thankful that despite the very hectic schedule, Mommy Divine and Sarah was able to squeeze in a night to interact and be with the popsters.
As usual whenever a Sarah event is about to take place, you have to be early… have to condition yourself that you’re going to see Sarah face to face, be at the same place with her and be aware that you may be able to have a very, very, very close encounter with her (hopefully). Had to finish some work loads first before I can be at the event… I was with Moy (moy28asher) who traveled 12 hours from Bicol just to be able to attend the Christmas Party. Astig! We waited for Ate Lani (melanidmd) to arrive who’ll be coming from Cavite herself… we had our lunch first and waited for Tita Cristy as well who went to ABS-CBN to get some of her Sarah stuffs… Together with Ate Lani, Tita Cristy and Moy we went to Jollibee-Farmers Cubao to fetch some of the popsters who’ll be attending the party and will go with Tita Cristy since they don’t know how to go to the venue. Tita Cristy negotiated with van/fx drivers that will bring the rest of the popsters to the venue and off we went to St. Charbel and it was only past 4pm, that’s how excited we are to be there at the party. We arrived at the venue early for the call time. alt=':D' ] We waited for 6pm to strike, popsters who arrived early at the venue, greeted each other, exchange pleasantries. Met old and new friends, renew old ties and capture happy moments that popsters converge in one place to enjoy each other’s company and Sarah as well.
As 6pm draw nearer you can feel the excitement and hearts beating faster, anticipating a joyous night with Sarah and popsters. When the go signal was given, viola, a mass of popsters troop to St. Charbel Club House and lined at the entrance so that there will be orderly sitting arrangements and everyone who brought with them their exchange gifts was instructed to leave them at the entrance and each was numbered… then as each popster was seated we were tasked to make the numbers for the exchange gift…. Together with Kaye (sarah_is_the_best) we went table hopping and let the popsters who participated in the exchanging of gifts to draw their number/s. As we were doing our assigned task... popsters suddenly converge at the entrance…we were caught unaware that Sarah arrived at the venue!!! Drawing of numbers for the exchange gifts suddenly forgotten... It was around 7pm and all was agog and was trying to have that little space to get a glimpse of Sarah. Suddenly, it felt as if the earth literally stopped moving and almost all start clicking their cameras and straining each and everyone’s neck, hehehe!!! I saw Sarah wearing her sweetest smile, it was all worth it! She was wearing a blue blouse and black pants and her ever reliable sandals, hehehehe!!!! And yes…. She’s wearing her locks straight, long and black, that’s how Sunsilk work wonders on Sarah’s hair… hihihihi!!!! [img]https://sarahgeronimo.com/uploads/ipb/style_emoticons/legacy/smile.gif
Before the program starts, hosted by Ate Jenny and Kuya Erwin… Sarah gave a short message, thanking everyone for coming to the party and was just smiling all the time, hay!!!![/img] alt=':x' ] Everyone was instructed to take their respective seats so that everyone will have dinner.

Though there were some little glitz here and there the Party was a success, I bet that everyone enjoyed the night, there were some who weren’t able to have that solo moment with Sarah. But seeing Sarah and just staring at her face is enough to make everyone’s night a good experience to close 2009. It was a night that made us realize that no matter how short or how slim the chance of being able to get near Sarah is not a big deal at all, as long as we saw her happy, laughing, healthy and was thoroughly enjoying the night with her popsters, we all leave the venue with a smile written all over each others' faces. Because the mere presence of Sarah made our night extra special. alt=':T' ]

Ngayon pa lang, wine-welcome ko na kayo sa Nursing profession. Pagbutihin niyo lang ang pag-aaral niyo. And treat NURSING not as an opportunity but as a vocation to help people. Excited na din ako sa teleserye ni Ms. Judy Ann. I'm sure madaming makaka-relate na kagaya natin sa medical profession.
