School is cool with these campus heartthrobs (2nd)

School is cool with these campus heartthrobs (2nd)

Wake-uppers:

Scene: Only a few display the Philippine flag today, June 12, the 113th anniversary of Philippine Independence. The MalacaƱang has called on Filipinos to display the Philippine flag in all government buildings, official residences, public plazas and schools. MalacaƱang statement also cited Section 26 of Republic Act 8491, the “Flag and Heraldic Code of the Philippines,” that all the offices and public venue should display a replica of the flag.

Seen: Loida Tiza Salve Lagonoy is in the US. The Miss Bohol International 2009 winner arrived in California last week. “She is here for a vacation,” says the globetrotter Bared VRS who saw Loida in San Francisco.

Seen: Fashion mogul Maximiel is now a volleyball enthusiast. Health experts said that a volleyball match in the gym or outside is a fun way to socialize and stay active. “Volleyball is an ideal method of aerobic exercise,” shares Maxi. And, ehem, he is now a “heredera”!

Seen: A young socialite (YS) detected a lump on her breast. She concluded it as breast cancer. “This affected her mood” says a VRS who is close to the young socialite. She was convinced by her friends to see a doctor. After a series of lab tests, it was found out that the lump was not a dreaded cancer but a normal hardening of the mammary gland during the monthly period. “YS becomes very prayerful since then. Because of it, she knows how to pray the holy rosary!” adds VRS.

Seen: Those in the know just ignored this twentysomething socialite, an heiress of a business in Tagbi, who is telling people that she’s a vegan. “I don’t think she likes veggies. She doesn’t know what a broccoli is. She’s gaining not losing,” says a friend whose ears are bleeding.

Scene: A "Day of the Purple Ribbon for RH" will be held on June 15 at the Metro Centre Hotel. It will be a gathering of leaders, artists and public figures who are pro-RH.

Over 25 million students trooped back to school last Monday. The same old story: many public schools are far from ready due to a lack of school equipment and supplies. However, it didn’t dampen the excitement of the students because their campus crushes make the school atmosphere pleasant, enjoyable and exciting.

As a continuation of our “school is cool” series, Bared has found these two campus crushes.

The beauties of Tubigon have actually been in the field of beauty pageant for quite a time now but it was only after they won the Miss Bohol Sandugo in 2010 by Amir Paraguya Sol did the Tubigon ladies rose overnight to superstar status.

If the name rings a bell, it’s because Lori Geisha Cabrera was declared Anyag sa Tubigon 2011 last May. And Lori proved to be a great contender in this year’s Miss Bohol Sandugo, if, that is a big if, there will be Miss Bohol Sandugo.

In high school, she was a campus crush at Holy Family of Nazareth School where she graduated second honorable mention. At Holy Name University where she is a first year college, she becomes an instant campus crush. “Fresh and young,” says a boy who’s instantly smitten by her beauty and charm.

On the other hand, girls dream of convincing Melvin Cyrus “MC” Polestico to be their beau. He is a rockstar-famous as a point guard of Holy Name University’s Falcons. My friends (including RC) call him “hot.” The female population is obsessed of this person.

The Falcons boys are good. But more than good, they’re good-looking. As in basketball, or any sports, what seems to count more especially for local fans are the gamers more than the game itself. The more drop-gorgeous the players are, the more deafening grows the fanatics’ scream and the more audible the swooning. MC, who finished high school at Bohol Wisdom School, creates noise when is inside the court.

And what else do you want to know about Lori and MC? A lot. Stay tuned.

What is your favorite subject?

Lori: It would be English and Math.

MC: I like History.

Why do you think education is important?

Lori: As our reigning Binibing Pilipinas 2011 Shamcey Supsup had said, “Education is something that can never be taken away from you”. And yes, it’s oh so true. I would say that your education becomes who you are, and it’s what you are. That’s what makes education so important.

MC: It is important because with education you can have a better future.

What is your favorite quote?

Lori: When in doubt, dance it out.

MC: There is more value in the journey than in the success itself.

How do you manage your time in modeling and studying?

Lori: I can’t totally call myself as a model. Yes I’ve been to photo to shoots but I can’t consider myself as one. And for now studying and surviving college life is my main concern. Because I guess education is more important than fame.

What is your ambition in life?

MC: To become a professional IT expert.

Status? Single? In a relationship? Complicated?

Lori: Haha, I guess it’s complicated to say this, but yes, I’m in a relationship.

MC: Single.

What do you find sexy in a man?

Lori: A man’s smile is the sexiest thing for me.

What do you find sexy in a woman?

MC: The skin.

What qualities do you want in a boy?

Lori: I’m not particular with a tall, dark, and handsome quality. What I’m after a boy is that he should stand out by simply being himself.

What qualities do you want in a girl?

MC: Beautiful and kind.
