Ako'y lubhang nalungkot nang malaman na ika'y Hindi makadadalo sa ating munting salu-salo kasama ang mga kaibigan nating tunay. Sana'y makita kita muli kahit Hindi sa sinasadyang pagkakataon katulad ng pagtatagpo natin noon sa Tavern. Lubos akong natuwa nang makita ka ginoo at malaman na puting puti pa rin ang pantay mong santol. Nakakamiss din ang mga ganoong pagkakataon. Mukhang abala ka masyado sa iyong propesyon katulad ko. Sigurado akong ika'y magiging isang dalubhasang arkitekto. Pagbutihin mo aking kaibigan at tayo ay magkikita muli. Maligayang Pasko at Kaarawan na rin. Ako'y lubos na lumigaya sa iyong munting pagbati noong pasko. Sana ay makapag-usap tayo muli.

Nagmamahal, Ginoong Brucal

"When you're dreaming with a broken heart, waking up is the hardest part."

There really are a multitude of ways that a person can be broken. Relationships, frustrations, experiences, changes, loss, and confusion can all add up to someone's "brokenness." I heard you had a tough year father but I pray you give yourself credit as well for the days you still managed to get up and fought to make the most out of your day. Don't be ashamed if there were days when you just couldn't get up. I've had those days as well and sometimes they're warranted (sometimes they weren't). But I guess what I've learned from having those kind of days is that it was always better to accept em rather than fight em. Then I would promise myself that the next day can't be the same... that it's just a bad day and not a bad life. Bad days can give opportunity for catharsis when we choose to reflect instead of wallow. When we choose to get up and face reality instead of hiding from it. When we give ourselves a moment longer to breathe, to pause while our eyes are still closed and then push ourselves to reach for that coffee or jump into the shower. When your first thought in the morning is dread and you wanna just disappear but instead you show up. Each morning is a challenge, a calling, to prove we're alive.

We all believe in you Daddeh! More than for your dreams, your, talent or what you can achieve... We believe in you just because you're our Poch. Our teammate, our mentor, our family, our friend and in all those aspects you've given us so much reasons to get up in the morning, too. Whenever you make us laugh, or talk to us, or even just hug us, it can really turn our day around. We just hope you know that we would want to return the favor, too happy holidays dad!! Hope to see you around soon! Sorry and dami ko nasabi!! Haha. Suzie

Haaay where do I begin with this. I know we haven't known each other very long but I can already say you're a friend I want to keep until I turn old and gray. We all know that as you get older, our circles get smaller and we only keep the people who are real. You're one of those people to me despite the little times we've spent together and despite the fact that we haven't been through much together yet. I just want you to know how much of a light you are in all of our lives. The 3 days we bonded (tags, pablos/aracama, katsu/unit 27) were some of the lowest days for me in 2015 and no bullshit but it made it so much easier talking about my problems and facing them because of you. It made the situation I was in more bearable to accept. All because you're such good company to be around and it's a breather from reality. I've been through the shittiest of the shittiest and people like you and ari and benj are people who have helped me get by. Especially because I don't have parents to run to. Without you guys, I don't know would happen to me. So I hope you know that we're all here for you too. Anytime, anywhere. We love you poch merry merry christmas! Castro

Kumbaga lilipas lang din. Huwag kang matakot lalung lalo ng wag kang susuko kasi nandito naman kami nila Karl, Brucal, at Jc para magbigay suporta at lakas. Kaya mo yan brad, ikaw pa. Malayo mo man ako, alam mong maasahan mo ko. Kaya huwag ka din magalinlangan lumapit at kausapin ako. Susubukan ko magreply agad. Love you brother.  (Jedward) Lumain

I have no idea how you're doing cos barely get to see you but all i can say is this path hasn't been easy at all. Let's be real it's just not easy coming from ateneo straight into this and many times it's easy to feel alone. But it's not like you'd pick something else aside from this path nor would i do. Atin to. We have to finish what we started. Our time is far away from now but when it does it will surely be ours. Sana ok ka lang pre. I still incredibly look up to you for making it this far. Seeing other people like you nearjng the finish archi inspires me too. Merry christmas Poch!!! You're doing the right thing. Noel

I'm not aware of what's going on and I'm not going to ask. I just want you to know that you always have a friend in me. Whatever you're going through, you don't have to go through alone. I would love to hear from you. No judgement. Stay strong, Poch! We love you! Eun

Whenever I think about you, I always remember happy things--like the time when we first met in Cerv caf (I was shy to say hi but you said hi first...Tas mas na-shy tuloy ako puta), or the time when you asked me to act mad for being a guwardiya sibil and you squished my face because (sabi mo) mukha akong Angry Bird, or that time when you fainted and no one was really sure if legit yun or joke lang (kasi ganyan ka naman lagi eh, joke time alwayz HAHA). Those times were some of the highlights of of my college years so far, and I'm very glad that I had the chance to meet you. Tangina sobrang THANK U LORD nalang talaga kasi nagkaroon ng isang Romeo Pocholi Donayre sa buhay ko (choz ang drama ko) and I was able to get to know you better pa!!! I remember that time when we were both early for training and I told you about my dead toenail, so you asked me take my shoe off because you wanted to see it, and I said no but you took my shoe off anyway And for me, that was the time that I started to feel comfortable with you. It's really not that hard to be friends with you because you're so humble, kind, and funny even if medj intimidating ka nung first time kita na meet kasi honestly sobrang excited sila Ate Coco and Ate Janica and magaling ka raw talaga sumayaw and shit so nadala rin ako...Na pressure tuloy ako to do well whenever we'd train...So yun gets mo na siguro kung gano ka ka-halaga sa life ko!! At hindi lang ako yung na-touch mo, kuya Poch! Sobrang dami namin--pati yung audience na nanood ng mga piece na ginawa mo na-touch din! Tangina, ang galing mo talaga!!!! Sana lagi ka nalang nasa dorm para laging fun. No other coach knows ARSA the way you do and we really really miss you so much Grabe, mag-ffourth year na tayo, kuya Poch! I met you when we were freshies palang, tapos tangina, maggraduate na tayo?!!?!!??! Ang bilis! I know that you're gonna go far, kuya Poch. I believe in you SOOOOO much because you've helped us DT babies believe in ourselves. Nung freshie ako pabebe girl ako, tapos after ng guwardiya sibil shit na yun, naging pabebe warrior na ako dahil sa angas lessons at training na pinagawa mo samin! And i'll always be thankful for that. Please don't ever forget about us, kuya Poch I'll always be your bb Suy kahit na hindi na ako kyot angry bird slash trying hard guwardiya sibil and you'll always be welcome in our team. Like they say, NO ONE MESSES WITH MY COACH. AND KUNG MERON MAN, SABIHIN MO LANG KUNG SINO. Uututan ko siya. Mej deadly kasi according to the newbies. The newbies never got the chance to train with you, but I always tell them stories about you and we always end up laughing! See, kahit na wala ka, pinapatawa mo pa rin kami! Sobrang love ka namin, kuya Poch!!! 💕 May forever. I love you, kuya Poch ( <-itaha mo yan sa bato, gago.) !!!! Love, Suy

Happy birthday Poch. Ive already told you what you needed to hear from me. So I'm sure your trying to stand up and picking up yourself. Be strong and all will be ok if you rely on God and not on your own understanding. You should think positively of what have happened to you for the past years. Learn from it. All of it builds you and molds you.

Here are my two verses that helps me stand up if I'm overwhelmed with trials in life.

Proverbs 3 :5-10

5 Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding;6 in all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight. 7 Do not be wise in your own eyes; fear the LORD and shun evil. 8 This will bring health to your body and nourishment to your bones. 9 Honor the LORD with your wealth, with the firstfruits of all your crops; 10 then your barns will be filled to overflowing, and your vats will brim over with new wine.

James 1:2-12

2 Consider it pure joy, my brothers, whenever you face trials of many kinds,3 because you know that the testing of your faith develops perseverance. 4Perseverance must finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything. 5 If any of you lacks wisdom, he should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to him. 6 But when he asks, he must believe and not doubt,because he who doubts is like a wave of the sea, blown and tossed by the wind.7 That man should not think he will receive anything from the Lord; 8 he is a double-minded man, unstable in all he does. 9 The brother in humble circumstances ought to take pride in his high position. 10 But the one who is rich should take pride in his low position, because he will pass away like a wild flower. 11 For the sun rises with scorching heat and withers the plant; its blossom falls and its beauty is destroyed.In the same way, the rich man will fade away even while he goes about his business. 12 Blessed is the man who perseveres under trial, because when he has stood the test, he will receive the crown of life that God has promised to those who love him. Kuya Logs

My brother. I know I just met you this year but thank you talaga pare. I don't know if you know but I went through a lot this year and when Suzie and I happened, I was honestly scared her friends wouldn't enjoy my company. But hey, you made it so easy to love all of you guys and for that I'll always be thankful! Idol kita poch, seriously! I already know you'll be a brother for life just because I have nothing more to say but thank you for the adventures and the memories. Marami pa tayong pagdadaanan pare, but its nice to know that this year, nadagdagan mga kaibigan ko ng katulad mo. You're genuine and you're an awesome person. Can't wait to spend even more time with you! Muli, salamat kapatid! Excited na ako makita ka ulit. Hahaha ingat lagi poch and I wish you all the best! Always find what makes you happy! And pagnagkapanahon man na nahirapan ka gawin yun, andito lang kaming lahat para sayo gaya lang ng lagi mong ginagawa para samin. Solid ka pare, wag mo kalimutan yun! Gio Bilog

Merry Christmas! I miss you. Sayang di ka makakapunta sa Christmas party natin. Feeling ko panalo yung magiging costume mo eh. Haha! I know you've been having a hard time lately. Alam mo naman kung anong advice ko. Napagusapan na natin. Just hang in there. Dont worry too much. Do what you think you have to for yourself. Nandito lang ako, kaming lahat actually. You're never alone. I love you. Hope to see you soon. Goodluck with everything, we're one text away. Dick

Merry christmas!! kamusta na? i have been trying to contact you since the accident but for some reason hindi kita mareach sa texts, viber, fb..kahit nung tumawag aka sa bahay, nasa school ka naman. Anyway, i don’t know the situation sa bahay (i hope its better) but i want to reassure you and remind you that although we’re miles and miles apart your ate Nica and kua Phil are always here for you. i heard you had a rough year.. with everything thats going on… with school, with your health, family issues, love life??, i think you have been overwhelmed physically, emotionally and mentally…and to top it all of…..the accident happened. to be honest… i was told it was your fault… and i think it was immature, careless and reckless behavior…. but we all went through that, we all make mistakes. but there are no excuse for what had happened. we should all MAN UP to our mistakes. its done. it happened. lets move on.

I am still thankful to God that you’re safe, alive and in one piece. kung ano man and pinagdadaanan mo ngayon…stay positive. pray. breathe. its called LIFE. don’t forget that theres people who care about you even on your loneliest times. you have your family, Ari, friends…. POCH malaki kana, alam ko hindi mo papabayaan and sarili mo.hindi ka naman pabaya sa buhay. this part of your life will pass. you will move on to better things.

i hope you learned from this. it must feel like its the end of the world..but don’t get discouraged. you will have more struggles in life but i know you’ll deal with it in a different way with a BETTER attitude. Poch i love you so much, our family loves you the good and the bad. we will love you no matter what.

message me if you can ok. please be careful. you’re smart, gifted. i know you’ll figure this one out ok. stay strong! i can’t wait for you to visit me and your kuya phil here. Ate Nica

I heard what happened. I am sorry its gotten bad lately, but there will be a light at the end of that dark tunnel. I want to let you know, I’ve been where you are now. I can’t exactly know how you feel and I won’t assume I know either. But trust me when I tell you, I’ve been down a dark path too. Its a story I can tell you when we see each other again. Right now, you have to toughen up. You have to count your blessings and keep praying, pray like you’ve never prayed before. As cheesy as that sounds, praying got me through it all. I wouldn’t be with your sister or be doing better today if I didn’t pray till my knees hurt asking for help. God answered and it slowly got better. So whatever, you’re dealing with, whatever hurts and whatever you know you’ve done wrong. Leave it with God. Let him into your life and let Him lift you back up. I know it sounds crazy, but trust that it helps. He’s listening and I truly believe that. Ill keep this message short, cuz Ari reached out to like a million people so thats a million messages you’re reading. She’s an amazing girl, don’t lose sight of that and don’t let her down. My last advice is that you need to man up. Now is not the time to show anyone a weak side of you. This might sound harsh, but you’re not a kid anymore. The shit i had to deal with, I dealt with on my own and no one was there to baby me or bail me out. You have a family that still supports you, you have a gf that cares for you like a wife. Man up and figure all this out. Whatever you’re dealing with, fix it. Life is going to punch you in the face a thousand times, don’t back down from that fight. Get better and stronger and learn from all of it. you’ll be a better man from it someday. Take care brother and can’t wait to see you and have a drink over something happy again. Kuya Phil

I'll try to make this as humorous as possible so you won't feel all teary. When I was helping you finish your final plates, I asked you how you were and sabi mo stressed ka because of what happened in Taguig. Other than that, I asked what more you had to share and you said nothing. Naalala ko lang kasi when I lost my ipod, I cried, and to stop me from crying you gave me worse news. <-- sagwa pakinggan puta worse news (judging me) sabi mo you didn't want everybody else to know yet. Eh, I felt reallt bad. Naalala ko yung nung gumagawa ng plates, na you keep secrets from us wag lang kami malungkot din. I just want you to know kuya poch, it's okay to share naman pero of ayaw mo okay lang. Herr lang kami nila Renz and the gang for you. I am so glad to meet you bc you remind me of the kuya I never had. Galing mo kasi mag advice or lahat ng pananaw mo sa lahat ng bagay basta maopen up namin. Esp. for knowing all the drinking games we love. I hope your 2016 kicks your 2015's ass!! merry christmas and happy new year, Poch!!! we love you!! and we have your back!! Nisha

I hope you have been taking very good care of yourself. And you're not abusing your body to the point of going over your limit… there are people who worry about you you know!!! And wish they could take care of you if you would just let them. Mommy misses you na. Wants to hear all your stories. Laugh with you, get angry with you, cry with you, laugh at you. Hehehe. I'm doing a lot better now. And I hope to one day tell you about it. Your mommy is not a weakling anymore!!! And she also saw leandro the other day. :)) I love you baby!!!

Merry Christmas! I haven't heard from you in a while... Miss na kita. But more than that, I wanna send love and positive vibes your way this holiday. I heard you've gone through a tough year. Di ko alam kung ano pinagdaanan mo, and I don't need to know details but I want you to know that, as your cads mommy, I'm here for you lang. Whether it's about design or life, I'm only always a text away. Whatever you had to go through, in the end, I hope you came out a better, stronger human being. My Christmas wish for you for the coming year is to be happier and to be surrounded by lots of love despite rocky days. Love you, anak! Happy holidays to you and your loved ones! Mommy Dani

I know it's been a terrible year for you. Being alone in Intramuros is not fun at all. But I'm happy for you coz you finally figured out what you really love to do. It may be too late for some but here you are making it happen. You may get impatient at times but all your sacrifices will be worth it in the long haul. We, your best friends, may be busy with our own jobs and what nots, but don't ya forget that we're just a call or text away if you need a drink or 10. Merry Christmas to you and your family bro! Den

How are you doing? Hope you're doing great! Though we're not as close as the others, I'd like to thank you so much for being a part of my life as a friend and as a coach.You've affected me and everyone else in a positive way and have taught us a thing or two. You've taught me the importance of a group's bond that when strong enough, can conquer anything. Sobrang naaapply ko siya sa orgs and I always put an effort to make the people in a group close even for a short while thanks to you. I feel you when you want the people around you to be happy, I'm like that too pero I do it sa pagiging funny-bitch. Ask DT for proof. Hahahahaha! But we're human too and that we just can't keep giving love especially kung nauubusan din tayo. So I love you and know that everyone who you've met loves you too. KEEP STRONG BRUHH! GAINS pa more!

Honestly, I'm glad I met you; I'm lucky I met you. Kahit lagi mo ko binubully and you keep making fun of my thigh gap, sobrang laki ng difference ng kung gaano ako kasaya sa buhay ko ngayon compared sa last year because of you, because you talked me into pursuing law. Thank you. I wouldn't be where I am now kung di dahil sayo and I seriously love what I'm doing now and I thought sobrang tamad kong tao nung archi pa ko. I'm gonna say this once and I'm gonna deny it pag sinabi mo sa iba but you changed my life, man. I can't thank you enough. I noticed lagi ka nga malungkot pag nakikita kita, e minsan lang tayo magkita. Tetext dapat talaga kita about this but I figured it's less corny this way. Happy holidays love you gurl. Don't tell anyone that I send messages like this. Love, (Not) Shei

Isa ka sa mga taong hinahangaan ko. Mula sa pinakasimpleng mga bagay hanggang sa paggawa ng mga kahindik-hindik na death defying stunt. Ilan man na ligament sa buto mo ang mapunit, hindi magbabago ang tingin namin sa iyo, ikaw pa rin si Kuya Posh the great na nagsisilbing bituin sa madilim na eskinita na aming nilalakaran. Maraming salamat. Higit sa inis, sana'y nakapaghahatid kami ng ngiti sa'yo. Alam kong stressed ka, hindi ko na ii-stress. Tandaan mo na sa tuwing may problema ka, I can't stand na tatayo lang ako at manonood. Ay corny hehehe. We labyu. Alam kong makakaya mo yan, sir. Happy Holidays! JP Illustre

Ang corny neto sobra pero lunukin ko for you. Hahahahahahaha. Joke! First of all you're very lucky to have someone like ari. She really cares for you i can tell despite the fact na never ko pa siya nameet! Hahaha. Anyway i know this year was very hard for you with the operation and of course yung nangyare recently. Alam kong hindi pa tapos tong problema mo na to pero sana di mo malimutan na this is just another chapter to your story. It won't end here. i want you to know na you have contributed so much to many lives including mine. Yes, we may not be the best of friends but the time we have spent together as a group is priceless to me. It was very hard for me to enter the group since lahat kayo barkada na tas ako bago tas ikaw pa yung isa sa huli kong nakilala pero you made it very easy for me to feel so much at ease and for that i am very thankful. Ang ironic lang kasi isa ka sa mga sobrang nagpasaya sakin this year though ang lungkot mo hahaha i really hope you feel better knowing na there are so much people who will be by your side to whatever may come your way. Yayain mo lang kami (or kahit ako lang if ako lang free! Hahahaha) if you need company to get by with anything cos those hard moments won't last. You know naman we'll be there just like you would be there for us when we need the support. Thank you for being in my life. Marvin de las Armas

You're a great person and a great friend. It's no wonder you have so many friends and so many people who know you. It's such a rare thing to meet a genuine person these days, that's why I'm glad to be able to call someone like you my friend. Someone who you know you'll still be talking to or hanging out with 10 years from now. I'm sorry if I don't have words of wisdom to offer like you do, but if you ever need someone to have a beer with, someone to talk to, or just hangout, I'm usually just a text or call away.

Alam ko magulo ang sitwasyon mo ngayon pero gusto ko malaman mo na kung sakaling nararamdaman mo ngayon na walang tao nandiyan para sa'yo lalo na ngayon, nandito ako. Nandito kaming lahat nila Marvin, Renz at the rest ng group. Lagi naman ako isang text lang. Di man tayo yung tipong magkaibigan na magkausap o magkatext maya't maya, isang text lang naman ako kung kailangan mo ng makakausap o kahit ano man. Kaibigan kita at gagawa at gagawa ako ng paraan matulungan o mapuntahan ka pagkailangan mo. Wish ko na maging mas matibay ka at palaging tumingin sa positibong pananaw para malampasan mo na nang tuluyan lahat ng pinagdadaanan mo ngayon. Mag-ingat ka palagi, Poch!!!! At kung nagbabalak ka man talagang lumipat, sana hindi mo kami makalimutan hehe. Ikaw pa naman ang paborito kong nagsasalita sa mga inuman hahahahaha. WE LOVE YOU, POCH!!!!!!!!! MERRY CHRISTMAS!

I know it's been rough. I could tell by the way you carried yourself when i saw you in town today. I'm not going to be that person to tell you that "it's okay" because i know it's not. And whatever i say at this point won't really make it fully okay. You may be at the point where you can't carry the weight but i stand by what i said when we talked way back when - that i am here. We are here. And it does get better, The dark clouds WILL pass. I urge you to find it in you the strength to keep searching for the better day because it is right there. You can take comfort in knowing that you will never be alone in this; I will always be there to help. You might not talk to me as often but you can count on me. If i have to go to you for a hug then i will. Hang in there bud, ok? Love u man. Bell

Life is a cruel thing and no one gets out of it alive, and if there is one thing depression taught me, it's to not take life too seriously. All things will come to pass, except maybe, me, because I will always be here for you—I know this for sure because all your girlfriends have been my bestfriends and I have helped them understand you in all your mundane complexities. LOL. I love you, and happy holidays. Mara

Unang una sa lahat, maligayang Pasko sayo kaibigan. I know it's been a rough year but it ain't life if it's not hard I guess. And these are the moments that will make the happier ones later on sweeter too when you think of it (all positivity here bro).

We've always said that we got each other's back no matter what. I've seen that time and again from you man and truly, I am thankful. Salamat sa tunay na pagkakaibigan at pagmamahal. You've been a true friend through and through but I guess but this coming New Year, my wish is that you allow us to do the same. What I realized (and we've talked about this to some extent already) is that there's a right balance to selflessness and selfishness to learning to love completely. How can one love another if he cannot himself right?

This 2016, stop worrying about your friends. We all know you're the "father/tito" type who likes to take care of everyone but your peeps are all grown up now and old enough to look out for themselves (except me of course, I've always been mature enough haha kidding...not really...ok labo na haha). Stop thinking that you and your problems are a burden to your friends. What are friends for right?

At the very least I guess, give us the chance to choose. By not sharing us anything, you've completely eliminated our ability and choice to practice our role as your friend brother. Let us be. We, most especially you, deserve no less.

Ubos na ko ng English pre lam mo naman di tayo maEnglish na magkaibigan haha but I know you know what I'm talking about so all there that's left to say is love you man. To hell and back brother.

Cheers, Karl

There isn't much left to do, other than to tell you that you have been an incredible light in my life. Even at your worst, you're still my life's best part. I know you will get through this, and I know it will take time, but I believe in you. I love you. - A
