    The Assumption School of Davao (ASD) Batch 1993 will be hosting this year's Grand Homecoming to be held on the 7th of December at the SMX Convention Center.



    This year's celebration is extra special as it also marks the Assumption's 60th founding anniversary. This year's theme, "ROCK N' LOL" (Live Our Legacy) was carefully thought of to recognize the school's journey as well as that of all alumni through the years. A rock, another term coined for diamonds, recognizes the school's 60 years since it was founded.

    As ASD alumni, the batch would like to encourage and inspire every Assumptionist to assimilate the values learned during the school years and give these back to the community, to make a positive difference, hence the incorporation of "LIVE OUR LEGACY" in this year's theme.

    To make this year's homecoming even more meaningful, the batch, headed by this year's President, Judith Alorro Aretaño, is launching the "Support our Lumad Teachers" program. This is part of the batch's commitment to give back to the community and to support our dedicated Lumad teachers with what little we can give so they can continue with their mission to bring education to our Lumad children in Paquibato and Marilog districts.

    This year's celebration is anticipated to be a night of fun and spontaneity, tapping on local talents, so you can expect not just singing and dancing but also a showcase of other unique talents.


    WINNING GROUP will received PHp10,000
    and NON-WINNING GROUP will received a consolation prize of PHp2,000  


    Another highlight this year is a dance competition aimed at bringing all batches together. So a challenge is being issued to dance enthusiasts out there -- form groups now and represent your batch with pride. Be quick as only the first 8 groups to register will have a chance to bag a prize and be declared the kings and queens of the dance floor! Please visit ACDat60 on Facebook or drop by the ACD Alumni Office and look for Ma'am Fe Palma for more details.

    Will barely three months to go till the big day, the activities of the different committees have ramped up with everyone beaming with excitement and anticipation. The Program Committee, headed by this year's Secretary, Jasmine Monteposo Balbes, is already in full swing and will remain so leading to the event. The other officers and committee heads are also out and about ensuring minuscule details are taken on board and attended to. It is indeed a busy time not just for the officers but more so for the rest of the batchmates who have made their contributions in different shapes and forms. The batch is grateful to this year's honoree batch, Batch 1968, headed by their President, Emma Isonza Venzon, for their unwavering support and invaluable inputs.

    Let's be one! Let's celebrate our school's journey, and together, let's live a lasting legacy.

    Catherine Pichon
    A cooking demonstration facilitator should be someone with cooking experience or knowledge. An expert from a community block or it could be a representative from a marketing board or grocery store.

    My privilege to be invited to the French Baker and Tefal Small Domestic Appliances "EASY FOOD TREATS" with Chef Johnlu Koa at SM Davao Annex Event Center yesterday, October 12.

    And to meet the man behind Lartizan( an upscale boulangerie), Qwikbread, The French Baker Salon de Thè, and Chatime - Mister Chef Baker himself - Johnlu Koa.


    One of his biggest and successful ventures was The French Baker, he believes in giving Filipinos a wider variety of French-inspired bread, pastry, pasta and other dishes. Some of its goodies are Tortilla wraps, half loaf, Asian baguette, whole wheat half loaf, low sugar crumbs and French sourdough croutons.


    I really have fun during the cooking demo. We are taught on how to whip up easy and have a sumptuous treat after, using the trusted appliances from TEFAL - the plancha compact, chopper, sandwich maker, food processor and bread toaster.


    The event was done just in time for the WORLD BREAD DAY on October 16. 


    The French Baker, together with Tefal Small Domestic Appliances, wanted to teach and give proper information on how to make a great food without breaking the bank or spending too much time in the kitchen.



    And what make this event more fun, is the inter-active cooking demo of French Baker founder, Chef Baker Johnlu Koa with lucky members from the audience, to make sure people get a hands-on experience on how to make an enticing meals.

    A lot of people are asking about this drama, VICTOR MAGTANGGOL. When the first trailer and poster released by GMA many parodies, bashers and ridiculous comments had gone viral. When it premiered last June 30 on Networks Telebabad line up replacing The Cure, many interpretation about the story that GMA copied the movie THOR.



    Actually, it's not even Thor at all!

    Last Sunday, August 19, in line with Kadayawan Festival 2018 celebration, a GMA Blogcon was held at Rekado together with #TeamDDI and Kapuso Brigade with the cast of Victor Magtanggol.


    During the blogcon, we are given a 30 minute privilege to interview each one from the cast. A table talk happened, starting with Kristofer Martin a.k.a Lance E. Regalado.



    Davao Digital Influencers Inc (TeamDDI) together with Kristofer Martin

    Kristofer showed off his dedication to his craft as he opened up about the sacrifices he made to prepare about his role in the drama.

    "Doing Lance character is not that easy, but because of GMA proper training and workshop I get develop easily through the character". ~ said by Kristofer Martin 
    Me & Kristofer

    Move to the next character, Percival "Perci" Domingo played by Dion Ignacio.

    In this drama, he is the brother-in-law of Victor who will discover something about Victor's secret.

    When asked if given a chance, what superpower would you choose and why?

    "I choose to have a superpower "AIR", because Victor has an inland power, maybe I could help Victor to fight his battle with my air power like a storm or a maze." ~ said Dion Ignacio
    Me & Dion

    Andrea Torres one of the lead cast appeared to be overwhelmed during this chat. She did not expect the positive outcome of their TV Drama to the Dabawenyos.

    Playing a dual role - Sif and Ms. S that will trained and help Victor against Loki.




    Davao Digital Influencers Inc (TeamDDI) together with Andrea Torres

    I barely know this guy but he is so warm and kind, Pancho Magno.

    Another lead cast who played the role Modi, son of Thor and step-brother of Victor.



    Davao Digital Influencers Inc (TeamDDI) together with Pancho Magno

    Lastly, know other than Victor "Hammerman" Magtanggol itself - Alden Richards.

    It is originally titled as Mitho.

    VICTOR MAGTANGGOL

    Alden played a fantasy role that is not what you think his character is. Is still a part of Norse Mythology, but he's not the Marvel's Thor we think. GMA Network make sure that they have their own story line which was seen in the first episode, so there is no copyright issue or anything like it.




    During the blogcon, Alden implies that we must watch the drama from the start to know and think of this as a Filipino versions of Thor, but with more human elements and less of gods.


    Davao Digital Influencers Inc (TeamDDI) together with Alden Richards




    "It is in a Filipino setting which reflects the Filipino condition". ~ Alden Richards.

    Me & Alden Richards

    Great story line directed by Dominic Zapata and great costumes too!

    Miguel Faustmann bilang Magni, John Estrada bilang Loki, Alden Richards bilang Victor Magtanggol, Andrea Torres bilang Sif, at Pancho Magno bilang Modi.

    VICTOR MAGTANGGOL



    Because they have parts of it similar to the norse diety, and it is based on Norse mythology it still good to watch this show on GMA Network.
