lamig, lambingin mo naman aq🥺

It's no longer a competition — it's a celebration!

What was once just a simple boodle fight turned into something more meaningful — a celebration filled with joy, laughter, and connection. A reminder that everyone deserves happiness after everything we’ve been through this school year, 2024–2025.

First year, done and dusted — and we did it!
Though we started as newbies, we lifted each other up, helped one another, and turned this journey into something unforgettable. The memories we created together will always be a part of who we are.

This celebration wouldn't have been possible without the efforts of Riri Cabe and Nay Maria Ladringan — thank you for going the extra mile to make this happen. Also, our heartfelt gratitude to Ma’am Rayh Mariano and Ma’am Camille Myers for giving us the opportunity to come together and celebrate.

And now…
Byaheng Second Year, here we go!
Let’s keep the bond growing stronger!✨

“We can win as a team!”
The true strength of teamwork lies in hard work, unity, and shared dreams.

On June 27, 2025, the long-awaited Folkdance Competition brought together all 27 first-year sections at the Gymnasium of Valenzuela City Technological College. Representing FSM1C, Wanse graced the stage with the elegant and vibrant Bulaklakan Folk Dance, proudly embracing the theme of Pride Month—spreading color, joy, and hope to everyone in the audience.

To our surprise and overwhelming joy, we were named First Runner-Up!
The graceful sway, beauty, unity, and fierce effort of our dancers truly shone on stage. We did it, Wanse! We earned that trophy, just like we manifested it!

Behind this achievement is a guiding light— our choreographer, designer, and organizer Riri, whose dedication, vision, and passion held us together. Thank you for believing in us, pushing us, and making this dream possible.

May the fire of our teamwork continue to burn bright, rain or shine. Congratulations, Wanse! 🌸🏆

"Bulaklakan: A Bloom of Grace and Pride" 🌈

Today, we proudly present one of the most graceful Filipino folk dances — Bulaklakan, a vibrant celebration of femininity, beauty, purity, and the journey to maturity. Through every gentle movement and every blooming flower we hold, we embody the essence of FSM-1C — a collective of strong, compassionate, and empowered women who carry these traits with pride.

This performance is more than just a dance. But what truly makes this performance special is the heart behind it. The creativity, passion, and vibrant spirit of our LGBTQ+ members made this presentation more dynamic and breathtaking than ever. Their contributions brought extra life, color, and style to every move onstage. As you watch us perform, know that it is also a celebration of inclusivity, individuality, and the beauty of diversity. We are beyond proud to showcase a performance that blossoms not just with flowers, but with love, respect, and unity.

As we celebrate the month of June — a time when the world shines a light on love, identity, and self-expression through Pride Month — we bring you a performance that intertwines tradition with celebration. Each color, each petal, each movement speaks of hope, beauty, and unity. These are not just values we admire, but values we live by.

Let this performance remind us that we are all unique blossoms in one beautiful garden — and together, we bloom with pride. 💐🌈

GOODLUCK TO ALL FIRST YEAR OUT THERE!🌸♥️🧡💛💚💙💜

FSM-1C gathered on February 12, 2025 at Valenzuela City Technological College Annex Bldg., hosted by Micaella Chua, together with the officers as a congratulatory panel, celebrating and giving a certificate as a simple appreciation and acknowledgment to those students who did their best to become achievers and surpassed the First Semester of School Year 2024-2025.

As an FSM-1C president, I congratulate all of you, the achievers of our class. I saw your efforts and dedication with fun and enjoyment. Though there was a time the room was filled with complaints, we always think beyond to find the joy of every activity that we have. Congratulations for making it; all of our efforts paid off.
