Hi! I'm Jenina but I prefer to be called "Jenn" or just "Clarence" because I'm more comfortable with  that. I studied in Virgen Milagrosa University Foundation for most of my life and it's my first time to enroll in a different University  besides VMUF.

Like some of you, I came from a different strand that doesn't match with my current course, I am a former HUMSS student but I believe that it won't hinder me from becoming a Pharmacist! I chose this course because I've always had a special interest on the use of medicine and I've always been curious about what medicine is made of, what content or properties it has that makes it effective and what to be aware of when consuming these drugs. But if it weren't for the impediment that's keeping me from taking up arts, I would've chose to go to art school but I had to choose what was practical and more beneficial so here I am! I won't give up on that dream though, I have plenty of years ahead of me and plenty of time to learn.

I am Jamie Marielle A. Arenas, I am from Dagupan City, Pangasinan. I studied senior high school at Kingfisher School of Business and Finance.

My parents just encouraged me to take a pre-medicine course and since I don't want to take-up a degree that automatically works at a hospital, I took up pharmacy.

Hi! I'm Ronessa Bautista, 18 years of age, and a former STEM student from Labrador National High School.

People think that pharmacist only handles prescriptions; however they do more than just give medicine. Pharmacist educatate patients about the importance of taking medication. These includes the dosage, the side effect, and the importance of following the doctor's orders. Pharmacist care about patients and their health.  I naturally care about people well being. I would like to make people feel comfortable by talking to them about their health and medical. That's why I want to be a pharmacist and soon will have my own pharmacy.

Good day, my fellow Pharmacy students and to our teacher! I am Mariel Mendoza Navarro, 18, from Dagupan City. I graduated as a STEM student at University of Luzon. I love watching movies and series. I am also an aspiring writer and I love to write but writing doesn't love me. Mentioned above are just some of my interests.

Being a pharmacist was never really an option for me when I was still in Junior High School. I was originally planning to take ABM as my strand on Senior High School and have Accountancy or Business Administration as my course. My father introduced Pharmacy as a choice and encouraged me to take it on college. He told me that a lot of opportunities await for a pharmacist. Even though, I was a bit hesitant at first, I decided to follow his dreams for me. I have come to like the course as it fits to some of my skills. I've researched some informations about it and have come to a decision to be a pharmacist and take the licensure exam as soon as I graduate. I also would like to help other people, assist and take care of them as a professional. I also plan on taking Master of Science in Pharmacy and continue to be a PharmD so that I can be called a doctor without actually being a physician.

Hello,Good morning everyone!

Czarina Danae C.Tiburan

I am 19 years old and former students from Colegio de San Juan de Letran-Manaoag. I’m the youngest and the only girl in the family. My parents are working in the Municipality of Manaoag. I’m a Sacristan at Minor Basilica of Our Lady of Manaoag for almost 10years. I am very dedicated and passionate of what I’m doing. I stand to be corrected because I want to learn and to grow. I am friendly and easy to approach. I am also a secret keeper. I am a jolly person. :)

Actually I’m having hard time in choosing between Pharmacy or Dentistry that I’m going to pursue because I really want to become a Dentist ,but at the same time I want to choose the course that is easy to have a income/money. When the pandemic happened ,I decided and I chose practicality specially in this kind of situation that we are facing(covid).Because Pharmacist is one of the frontliners and they have the income ,benefits and all. I always think of others most importantly my family and I want to help the poeple in need.Little by little after I enrolled , I want to gain more knowledge in terms of medicines and drugs. To be able to achieve my dreams and someday have my own Pharmacy.

Good day, everyone! I'm Francine Mae R. Gonzales, 18, a Senior High graduate from University of Luzon under academic track, STEM strand.

During senior high school, everything was still a blur. I don't know what my dreams are. One time, when our teacher asked us "Why did you enroll under this track?", I don't know what to answer. Was it because I was a former STE student? Was it because of my friends? I don't know. I wasn't sure. But as months passed by, I became fascinated with health-related courses. I admire how they work, they save lives and serve our people. They are our heroes but never given an enough recognition. And in that moment, I found the answer, I wanted to be just like them. I pursue pharmacy because I want to help and serve our people. As I research more, I learned that there are lots of opportunities for licensed pharmacists. Despite of this pandemic, I will study hard to achieve my dream because our people need us. Let's all fight together because who knows, we might be the change that our health-care system has been waiting for. We will because we can!

I hope we all get along! Thank you.

Hi there! My name is Chloe Arrianne, 18 years old, and I am currently living in San Carlos City, Pangasinan. I completed my pre-school to senior high school at a catholic school, Saint Charles Academy, wherein I took the academic strand STEM. Being aligned with a medical course wasn't always my dream. When I was young, I've always wanted to be an engineer like my father, but as time went by, I became intrigued by the works of health professionals.

I am a curious person and sometimes think I can be flexible, that is the reason I choose the course Pharmacy, possibly as my Pre-Med, but I am not sure yet. I want to become a Pharmacist because I know that medications are essential to a person's life. Ever since I knew Pharmacy will be my college course, I've been thrilled to learn how prescriptions are made, how it affects a patient's body, and what are the different generic drugs.

I am Marjorie Petras, 19 years of age and I am former student from Colegio de Dagupan under STEM strand.

Back when i was in grade 11 my first chosen career was medtech but then after having our work immersion at Dagupan City Health. I've realized pharmacy course is better than medtech because i see lots of opportunities in this course. There are plenty of career opportunities they work, not only in drug stores but also in hospitals. They can also develop their careers in clinical pharmacy, research, or even in retail.

All these opportunities for pharmacists mean that people of this profession can stay flexible, pursuing the career that will respond to all their requirements related to their interests, schedule, or other lifestyle choices.

Indeed, work immersion proved that learning takes place.
I have no regrets at all choosing this career though it is not easy course but i will do my best because this is what my heart really wants and i see my potentials and capabilities in this career.

Hi! I am Mikaela Miravalles Frias from Basista, 18 years old. I graduated my senior high school at Virgen Milagrosa University Foundation (VMUF) under academic track of STEM strand.

The reason why I want to become phamacist is that, I really want to work abroad. Because I have already planned and promised myself that I will work hard and save all my salaries. So that, when I go back here in the Philippines, I can build my own pharmacy. I no longer have to work for another company but my own pharmacy. And hopefully if I prosper, I can also build other branches in different places of my pharmacy.

Hi! Alyssa Nicole Laderas here! I am 19 years old and the eldest child in the family. This is my second course actually. I felt that my first course was not meant for me so I shifted to Pharmacy.

I decided to pursue this course because having a degree in pharmacy opens the doors to countless opportunities. It has a variety of careers which you can choose from, depending on your skills and the field in which you want to focus. I think pursuing a health-related course like this would be helpful in the future as we are living in a country with a poor healthcare system.

Hi! I am Pia Cayton Catinguel from Bugallon. 19 years of age. I finished my junior and senior high at Pangasinan National High School under academic track, STEM strand.

The reason why I'd like to pursue BS Pharmacy is because I've always wanted to be part of our healthcare system. My biggest influence in choosing this profession is my former Advanced Chemistry adviser, Mr. Samuel Saringan, way back 10th grade in my previous school. Through his teachings and life lessons, I developed this strong interest in chemistry and since It's really my childhood dream to be a doctor, I decided to take BS Pharmacy as a stepping stone, a pre med course, that is I think most suitable for me.

Hi there! I am Alexis, a 19 years old freshmen. STEM-graduate from Rosales National High School. The truth is, this is not my dream course, but i am really fond of medicine courses. I already experience being a college student taking up Bachelor of Science in Nursing at University of Cordilleras, Baguio City. But something came up that's why i stopped going to school for the mean time. For a fresh start, i pursue Bachelor of Science in Pharmacy. It may not be my chosen course but i know, this would help me a lot in pursuing success in life.
