Jariette Anne Abuan
Logistics Team (Volume 13)
Jarieth Abuan also known as “Yeyeth” is one of the most organized members of the Red Chronicles. She is well known due to her leadership skills and her amazing interpersonal abilities that make her an effective logistics team member. Her prowess and pragmatism allowed the TRC and its team to function efficiently during her tenure. As a student, she is fun and outgoing and can easily make a lot of friends. She is likewise very compassionate as she puts the needs of others before her own. Now as she walks beyond the halls of San Beda, the TRC wishes her best as she embarks on her greatest hurdle in the legal profession.
Anna Katrina Belarmino
Managing Editor (Volume 11)
Kat or “Ate Kat” is one of the kind-hearted people you would be blessed to have around and work with. She is sweet and gentle but tough when necessary. She will hear you out and see right through you because when she listens, she puts not only her ears but her heart as well. She is a good friend to all; may be quiet at first but when she speaks, you would know that it comes from the right place and usually has the right words to say. Kat is also a competent leader with an effective professional relationship with her team. Under her care, people will deliver on time with outstanding results. Lastly, her exceptional knowledge of the law will bring her to greater heights.
Joe Martin Cabaral
Circulations Managaer (Volume 14)
As one of the early risers in the Red Chronicles, “Uncle Joe” as we fondly call him, was almost always the first one to arrive at the school office every day. The resident tito of TRC never runs out of “tito jokes” that make the entire room burst with laughter. Being the dependable tito that he is, we can always count on him whether it be in academics or even personal matters. His brotherly advice is replete with wisdom and experience that comes in handy when we need it the most. We, in TRC will surely miss Uncle Joe’s cool vibe and bravado.
Paul Nikko Degollado
Editor In Chief (Volume 13 and 14)
Paul Nikko or “Polniks” has been one of the strongest pillars that held TRC together and made its members feel like TRC is their home. He is one of the great Chiefs that held the torch and led the organization to where it is now. And like how an impeccable leader he is, he is also the kind of friend who makes you feel warm and appreciated just by being around. He’s funny and would make you laugh until you ran out of air but will stand by you fighting for what is noble and honest. As a student, he had a few setbacks but that didn’t stop him to gear himself with the right amount of fire to keep him going and finish the race. And now that he’s about to leave the Lion’s den, we hope he carries that fire with him wherever he’s headed next.
Juan Miguel Lopez
Editor In Chief (Volume 15)
“Migs”, our revered Editor in Chief this school year is one of the most responsible law students that you will meet in the school of law. “The devil is in the details” they say, and under the keen eye for perfection of Migs, one can be assured that nothing would go amiss. This admirable trait prepared him to become well suited for the top job in the Red Chronicles. Migs can be likened to a stoic as he is the epitome of grace under pressure. We are very thankful for the opportunity of having Migs as our benevolent leader who rallied us through hectic deadlines and heavy workload, as his composure makes it fairly easier to work well within the said predicaments. We are confident that with Migs’ leadership and professionalism, a bright future awaits him in the legal profession.
Maria Charmaine Maghirang
Literary Editor (Volume 14) and Social Media Manager (Volume 15)
“Charie” was a steadfast webmaster and literary editor for the Red Chronicles! Her ability to detect relevant information travels miles. Whether it may be news or information about the school, Charie would always be the first in line to hear it. She has always been a compassionate leader and more so a capable student of law. Her ability to decide on critical matters involving the Red Chronicles guides not only those under her lead, but also paves way for greatness to be achieved by the Editorial Board and the entire organization. We, as members of the Red Chronicles, are forever grateful to her and we wish her luck with the #GetThatBar!
Jolykha Toa Sanchez
News Writer (Volume 13)
“Lykha” is always there to lend a helping hand when needed. Her empathy for those she lives and works with is one of her best attributes. She’s a dedicated worker, a dependable friend, and a colleague with whom you can open yourself without fear of being judged. Despite having her own personal challenges, as do most of us, Lykha has never let them stop her from being the kindest and compassionate to her friends and colleagues. She is a true friend for life and a role model for all law students who are fighting their own afflictions and forging on toward a better future.
Hera Marie Ydulzura
Layout Editor (Volume 13) and Art Director (Volume 14)
If you’d notice Hera, she is this quiet girl who silently does her own thing but would definitely laugh when she hears something funny in a conversation. She doesn’t like attention nor does she seek one. She has a soft heart and is very considerate of others but do not underestimate her – she could cut you (but would still cry about it.) To be her friend is a blessing – she’ll support you in all that you do; would even join you in your crazy ideas. She always says the most random things AND would definitely, most of the time, reply to you with a typographical error. As an artist, Hera loves creating art and discovering new forms – a gifted and talented person in her own right. She uses her spare time to do some drawings or play sports, which surely helped with her sanity throughout law school. As a law student and future lawyer, she experienced her own fair share of struggles but she was never disheartened – she is hard-headed and determined with her goals. Keep creating, Hera. Never lose the inner child-like light that lights up the worlds of the people dear to you.
