TCO celebrates the Holiday spirit
by: Elyanna Germaine B. Yasi
The second and third year Theresian Communicator’s Organization (TCO) members enjoyed the holiday spirit together with their respective year levels right before the Christmas break.
The sophomores celebrated it at Joven’s Grill and Seafood on December 18 while the juniors held it at Alexandra Arietta’s residence on December 20. Both parties enjoyed some sumptuous meals and a good dose of heavy laughter.
The fun continued as the members revealed the recipients of their gifts. Humor was definitely in the air when it turned out that most of the gifts are either false or packed in really huge and intricate wrappers.
Marie Silvano, a third year Media Communication Major expressed her joy when she said, “…was the best Christmas Party ever. I love you all and I hope to experience more fun with you yet again next year.”
TCO did not organize a Christmas Party for all the members. They decided to allocate funds that would help the relief operations for the typhoon Yolanda victims.

The Theresian Communicator’s Organization (TCO) held an inspirational talk on advocacies last January 8, 2014, at the St. Theresa’s College Audio Visual Room.
TCO invited Matthew Basabe, Anna Maris Igpit, and Chip Lopez as their guest speakers for the inspirational talk entitled, “What Drives You: Your Passion, Your Future.”
Matthew Basabe, one of the Top Ten Outstanding Students of the Philippines awardee helped the TCO members find the winner within them. A winner doesn’t have to have good looks and the height alone but a winner should have a heart to serve the country.
Anna Maris Igpit, former Bb. Pilipinas World 2006 has that heart. She possesses not only beauty and brains but is also a helper of the community.
Chip Lopez, owner of The Lazy Chef Lunch Club, who when in her younger years was a sickly child has transformed into a healthy woman. She proved that your passion will never get you wrong. “Do what motivates you, do what makes you happy and never give up that future you’ve always wanted”, Chip said.
The talk was aimed to inspire and encourage students to pursue their passion, not to doubt their future after college.
