🌺 𝐑𝐞𝐜𝐚𝐩: 𝐆𝐚𝐛𝐢 𝐧𝐠 𝐏𝐚𝐬𝐚𝐬𝐚𝐥𝐚𝐦𝐚𝐭 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟓

It’s been a few weeks, but the aloha spirit still lingers. 🌴✨

Last October 15, we came together in true Hawaiian spirit for Gabi ng Pasasalamat 2025 — a night of gratitude, laughter, and celebration that reminded us what it truly means to be one SLMCCM-WHQM family.

Held at the Quezon City Sports Club, the evening was filled with vibrant performances, games, and heartfelt moments that captured the warmth and unity of our community. Beyond the walls of medicine, it’s the spirit of ohana that keeps us connected. 🌸💫

🌴✨ Double the heartbeat, double the island heat!

🎶 If the wind in my sail on the sea stays behind me
One day I'll know, How far I'll go ~

YOU are the wind in our contestant’s sails. Support them later, October 15, with cheers and applause!

Tahiti can’t seem to calm down as our contestants once again heats up the stage. Just like Moana and Maui, these pairs prove that teamwork makes the voyage unforgettable.

With their rhythm in sync and their sails set for glory, they’re ready to navigate their way to the crown, no GPS required. 🧭👑

So grab your leis, warm up those vocal cords (we know you know the songs), and get ready for a night where medicine meets the Hawaiian sun. ☀️

📅 See you later!

🎶 “See the line where the sky meets the sea? It calls me…” — and this time, it’s calling us straight to 𝑴𝒙. 𝑳𝒖𝒌𝒂𝒏 2025! 🌊👑

🌺 Aloha, Lukans! 🏖️

Tahiti is ranging with excitement as our future doctors channel their inner voyagers. Armed with stethoscopes instead of oars, they’re ready to sail beyond lecture halls and into the spotlight. ✨

Support your batchmates and friends as they journey towards the rough seas of the stage this OCTOBER 13. 🌞🌸

As the countdown begins, let the warmth of aloha remind us that medicine isn’t just about charts and cases — it’s also about passion, presence, and a touch of pageant flair. 👑

So sit back, sip your imaginary piña colada 🍹, and get ready to witness an unforgettable celebration of wit, grace, and island energy.

See you on October 13 fellow Lukans!
