Grade 12 - Saint Thomas Aquinas

‼️MEET THE GRADUATES OF 12-STA BATCHoy 25’-26’‼️ 🎓🍜

After years of deadlines, cramming, group works, random absences, and emotional damage… we finally made it to graduation. 😭

We survived everything school threw at us — from surprise quizzes, sleepless nights, canteen runs, “send answers pls” moments, and the classic “si lord na bahala ah” study strategy 💀

Most days we were stressed, some days we were laughing too loud sa canteen, and some days we were just trying to survive the week.
But somehow, against all odds… naka-graduate gid ta. 🎓

And now here we are, standing at the edge of something new — college waiting ahead.
Exciting, scary, and honestly… daw indi pa kita ready, pero go lang gid ya 😭

But if there’s one thing this journey proved, it’s this: we made it — together.

To 12-STA Batchoy Fam, thank you for the chaos, the laughs, the stress, and the memories that made these years unforgettable. 💛

Batchoy once, Batchoy forever. 🍜✨

🎀🇰🇷 BIRTHDAY FEATURE: OUR LIVING DOLL WITH K-DRAMA ENERGY 🇰🇷🎀

Happy Birthday to Lerryea Alid — the classmate na laging napagkakamalang Korean or Japanese kasi literal living doll ang aura. Parang galing sa K-drama: soft, cute, aesthetic… tapos pag nagsalita biglang may plot twist 😭

She is our humanized typo — hindi lang sa chat nagkaka-typo, pati sa pag chika, need may sariling subtitles 🥀💔 Minsan mapapaisip ka nalang: “Annyeong… ano daw?” 🥲

Also, special mention sa storytelling skills ni Lerryea 😭
Kapag nagkukuwento siya, minsan kailangan mo na lang magtiwala sa context clues because it usually goes like:
“Guys alam niyo ba si kwan…”
“Tapos diba yung kwan niya sa kwan…”
“…tapos yung kwan nangyari sa kwan.”

At the end of the story, lahat kami tahimik lang pero inside we’re like: “Oo…ler…” *insert Ysa confused reaction*

She is also the #1 victim of rage bait sa class 😭 pero the funniest part? Kahit galit na siya, she still looks cute. Like parang K-drama scene na nagagalit yung character pero mas cute lang lalo. Aigoo~ Aegyo sample bwas infront sa klase?🥺

At syempre, our favorite moment: lagi siyang may pinapakita sa phone kahit naka-privacy screen protector siya. “Tignan nyo ito gaiz😊😊” ang ano ate…..😅😅

Lerryea, basi may pa ramen ka lang da? Hindi anay ta mag batchoy kay 사랑해 오빠😉😉

From your 12-STA Batchoy Fam 🍜, stay cute, stay iconic, stay typo-coded, and keep giving us main character K-drama energy.

🎨🎂 BIRTHDAY ALERT: CLASS ARTIST, FASHION ICON, AND CERTIFIED MAIN CHARACTER HAS LEVELED UP! 🎂

Happy Birthday to Keziah Mari Manzano, the official artist ng klase‼️— because let’s be honest, may it be creating PUBMAT for school, or kapag may poster or slogan contest, hindi na tinatanong kung sino sasali… automatic Keziah na yan 😭✍️
Talent so strong, parang may built-in summon button kada may art materials.

Hindi na sya suki ng canteen, suki na sya sang Canva. Templates fear her. Fonts obey her. Elements align themselves out of respect. Kaya kung may maganda kayong nakikitang pubmat… no need to ask. Si Keziah na ‘yan, obviously.

Also known as the only person who can eat full meals at the most random times — not during lunch break, not during recess, but habang tahimik ang klase, suddenly may aangat na aroma ng savory ulam… tapos lahat kami ma-confuse kung class ba ‘to or karinderya 💀🍱

AND LET’S NOT FORGET — our fashionista in tropical survival mode 🔥
While everyone is melting sa init, Keziah is out here layering SSC Blazer, jacket, and full outfit like she’s in winter arc 😭
Heat index: 35°C
Keziah: adds another layer
Heat index: maam…..🙁🔥

Happy Birthday, Keziah! Sincerely from you STA Fam!💘 Hindi na kami mangayo batchoy kez— see you nlng sa 28👀😉
