Off-topic, but shocking news:

I received a text message yesterday afternoon saying that Wynton Lou Ynion was found dead inside his apartment/condominium unit in Loyola Heights, Quezon City.

According to police investigators, he was four days dead when his body--with several stab wounds--was found inside his bathroom, with hands and feet tied while literally swimming in his own blood.

Initial investigation suggests it is a robbery with murder case, but there is also an angle that a lover might have perpetrated the murder--a seeming trend these days particularly in Metro Manila. 

I've also received this message but only stated that he is dead. wala lang gin mention ang mga possible death reasons.

grabe ang pag murder ba daw ka dako gid sang sala ni Wynton.

May ara, from CAS (BS Biology) si "Po" forgot his first name. He was the National champion in the PASUC Cultural Festival. Mark Wilfred Popioco (CMC) also was the champion in Extemporaneous Speaking Contest with Erika Demaguila (CAS- AB PolSci) as champion in essay writing during the 10th INTERNATIONAL YOUTH DAY CELEBRATION AND YOUTH AND EDUCATORS SUMMIT for the MILLENIUM DEVELOPMENT GOALS.

Hi prince! thanks for the updates- dugay na ako abi wala ka update sa west.. that's exactly the competition nga nadag an ni Genzola; that was the First Pasuc National Oratorical Contest sa Cebu City. Pag regional contest naglantaw kami bal an hahaha nagdaug sya so nagrepresent sya sang Region VI. the year before that naglantaw man kami sang regional contest sang Knights of Rizal Oratorical Contest kag nagchampeon naman kita kag nagdaug man si genzola sa Manila. the same year nag champeon pa gid sya sa Extempo SCUAA sa antique- hahaha fans club kami nga daan...maayo gid na nga balita nga naga champeon pa kita gyapun sa extempo kag oration. go west vi!!!!!

[ilonggako]

[credgerey(The Prince)]

During the 3rd PASUC National Cultural Festival in Bulacan (2007) nagdaug si Po (4th year kami)..3rd year sila.

(2005) lt was hosted West Vi, that's why West Vi was not allowed to join in any contest.

(2009) was hosted by Phil. Normal University, WVSU man ang nag champion, kag 1st runner up sila sa Super Quiz Bowl.

To think contestants sang other schools are law students, West Vi's contestants are all from the undergraduate level, but still WVSU won sa oration and extemporaneous speaking, even essay writing contest.

I was the delegation head of WVSU during the 4th Visayas Rizal Youth Leadership Institute (of the Order of the Knights of Rizal) Guillier Pindon (AB Pol.Sci) also won in the oration contest.

Out of ten (including me) we were elected as heads of the commissions and 4 of us made it to the Visayas councils. During that time proud si Dr. Sebastian (OSS Director) because of the citations we had from the 4th Visayas Rizal Youth Leadership Institute.

Marlon Jinon also won in an International essay writing contest.

Sa International Math Challenge consistent man ang West Vi in winning Gold representing the Philippines kada tuig. Ang Training Center for MTP (for math challenge) in region 6 is at WVSU.

Wow! Which means, two successive PASUC na nga champion ang west, ang region 6 gid eh! hahaha so u mean during the 2005 wala kita ginpajoin kay kita ang host? sin o ang over-all champion? sang 2007 and 2009 region 6 man gyapun ang over all champion? sang 2002 during the regional eliminations taga west tanan nag daug that's why kita ang nagrepresent sang region 6,what about sang time nio?

Sin o ang naga spearhead? very good gid kay napadaun naton-- si Grace Tan man sang una before kay Genzola kag halin pa sang time ni Sir Cervantes pakadto kanday Colleen Reyes then Tan then Genzola..

The Prince, may update ka sa Rizal Model Student? every year hakot award ang west sang mga naabtan ko lang ha, Grace Tan 2000 (Arts), Diane Obregon 2001(MassCom) kag Arnel Genzola 2002 (MassCom)..

[credgerey(The Prince)]

Actually whole region (where the host school is located), is not allowed to join sa National PASUC Cultural Festival. 2007  West Vi landed only as 1st runner up. But we could have the championship title if we won in the Ms. PASUC. But all region 6 PASUC are clamoring that time that maybe other regions intended to put our Ms. PASUC contestant in the top 10 only, so that we will just end up as 1st runner in over-all standing because if the Ms. PASUC from region 6 (west vi) reached even 4th runner up according to them, Champion naman ang West Vi. (but that's only the side story of the contest). But I know that in 2009 West Vi got the championship title again.

I was about to join the Rizal Model Youth Student, but nalipat ko mag pass sa deadline. hahaha.. I was a member of the RYLI core group that spearheaded the Visayas Rizal, (with the Knights of Rizal also). My co-core group member from CNU I think is one of the 10 Rizal model students during our time. I was very busy that time nga nalipat ko mag pass sang requirements. Anyway, we could not have all things in the world at a time man eh. Hambal gani sang Prof ko before, We're not the only one created by GOD,  so do not expect to have all these great things to just come to you. hahaha...But the good thing for me even I wasn't able to submit myself for Rizal Model Student, I was qualified in the National Youth Parliament of National Youth Commission..an d at the same time at the Civitas-Asia Project of the University of Asia and the Pacific.

Anyway, @ilonggoako, are you with the USC also? or affiliated in one of the college student councils or publications?

[ilonggako]

ay ahay, we could have won the championship sa pasuc that time kun naka top 5 ang ms pasuc naton.. cge lang ah, hadluk sila nga straight region 6tanan hehehe huo, college rep from one of the college student councils.. sa ortigas ang civitas right? sa d n ang venue sang NYP?
