Melody Dela Cruz (now Melody Dela Cruz-Gappi) - Batch 98's Fashionista

You might mistaken her for being snobbish but believe me she's not. She's friendly and fun to be with. I think everyone in school knows her since she is a true blue PES Student.

Stylish and Fashionable even during her younger years, until now :) Melody is very close to her cousin Celso (also from batch 1998).

Melody spent her secondary years in various high schools (E. Rodriguez High School, Manuel L. Quezon High School, Sergio Osmeña Sr. High School and Quezon City Academy). I'm sure she gained a lot of friends from these schools since she is naturally friendly. Melody took her bachelor's degree at Our Lady of Fatima University and is now happily married with one child, her cute son Yuan.

Melody looking good and enjoying a fun day.

Melody and her family. Lovely Family

Melody also served as the batch's get together photographer last 28 July held at Trinoma Quezon City.


Welcome to Batch 1998 Melody!

Thank you for your continous effort in planning the next get together!

Anne Cortez (Francis Anne Cortez) - 98' Ms. Congeniality

A huge thanks to Ms. Anne Cortez for sending her info at our batch site.

Anne Francis Cortez, also from batch 1998 currently resides at Oyama-shi, Tochigi, Japan with her lovely daughter Lhieanna. Her whole family migrated about 10 years ago.

Anne graduated from Japan College of Foreign Language and Kobe College. Anne a multilingual  can speak fluent Filipino, English, Modern Korean, Spanish, Bahasa Melayu- Indonesia, Nihongo and Urdu, very impressive right?

Anne as a primary student enjoys the company of her friends at school. At an early age she knew how to value friendship and likewise her friends still remember and value her. Im pretty much sure that she is really looking forward to reuniting with her friends after long years of being away.

Currently Anne is working as a car paint designer in a company also based in Japan. On regular days, she enjoys spending quality time with her lovely daughter.

Anne having a great day at the land of the rising sun.

Mommy and Daugther bonding. Good times! 

Welcome to Batch 1998 Anne!

We look forward to seeing you and your lovely bundle of joy Lhieanna!

Essence Bismanos - Who doesn't know her?

A unique name and a flashy smile. Seriously, can anyone tell me who doesn't know essence? 

She's one of the most friendliest student in school. A simple girl with a very pleasant singing voice. I remember her for selling those awesome "magic candies" who changes color once eaten :) and for their singing group (together with Rolaine, Raquel, Caesa and Leslie- please correct me if I'm wrong).

Essence is now based in Abu Dhabi,UAE, working as a nurse. Essence took her Bachelor's Degree in Nursing at Trinity University of Asia.

Enjoying and experiencing Dubai - Behind is Dubai's Burj Skyscraper                                           

Though facing the hurdles in the life of an overseas worker, Essence as always is equipped with her unique happy smile that in my humble opinion helps her maintain a happy balanced life away from home.

Essence and her charming smile.

Welcome to Batch 1998 Essence!

We look forward to seeing you and hearing your wonderful experiences.

Angela Tariga - Beauty and Brains

She's the "It Girl" of the class, a true beauty indeed. She's a proof that beauty and brains do go together.
A simple girl bloomed into a beautiful young lady who enjoys travelling and spending time with her family. Angela spent her secondary years at Quezon City Academy and later on entered University of the East. Currently, a working professional at one of the biggest Telco Companies in the Philippines.

Angela even more beautiful. Taken at Universal Studios Singapore while on a holiday.

Welcome to Batch 1998 Angela! 

It is really pleasant seeing you!

Finally! Through my brother, I've manage to get a copy of our class picture :) Can you still remember the person right next to you? :)

Charllotte Ichon - Batch 1998 Valedictorian

I've known Charllotte for a short span of one school year. I remember her for being our batch Valedictorian. A soft spoken, humble petite girl.


At a young age, I can say that Charllotte is one of the most hardworking student I've ever known. She's very studious and family oriented. You can always see her with her close friend Joanalyn Maure during breaks. 


After 14 years, through Facebook and a common friend, I've known that she graduated secondary school at QCSH Quezon City Science High School then entered the University of the Philippines, Diliman.


Through Facebook photos (If I may) I think she likes going to the beach :)

Charllotte, still looking young and enjoying the beautiful scenery.

Welcome to Batch 1998 Charllotte! 

We look forward to meeting you soon!

What are the things you remember the most from PES?  Who's your favourite teacher? :)
