Not too young for life |

When she entered the room, internationally acclaimed Filipino
singer, Charice Pempengco, had the bearing of a veteran disguised in
the clothes of a little girl. Her steps were loosely measured, her
arms swung modestly by her side and her face bore the countenance of
someone who no longer needs to prove her worth. But in the narrow
hall that led to her private room, as cameras began flashing from
every corner, one could not miss a fleeting look of awe the took
over her face; a quick reminder that she is still just a 16-year-old
girl.
“Do I still look young?” she said during her
interview with The Manila Times. “I already look old.” Even as
she joked, she possessed a distinct degree of maturity—laughing in
such a collected manner. And the dauntless modulation of her voice
is a testament to her calm confidence. “But I do like what a lot
of people say,” she added. “Young but with a big voice! Natutuwa
naman ako dun.”

Ang4 takes up the Down Syndrome cause
|
|
It is understandably difficult for some parents to accept that their
children will, in some ways, be different from the others. While
Down Syndrome does have certain implications on the child’s
