n a bright and early
morning in Nasugbu,
Batangas, Daquis arrives
without much fanfare.
But she certainly exudes
chutzpah (though not the arrogant
type, it must be noted). Even under
her ball cap and huge sunglasses
you will sense her significance. I
definitely know its a big deal being
a part of FHMs 100 Sexiest List,
Rachel says of her inclusion in the
list of the countrys sexiest. At this
writing shes the only athlete to break
into the top 10. Im just glad that
people appreciate me.
Rachels rise to the top has been
documented countless times. She had,
in fact, started out as a swimmer.
Then she tried out as a volleyball
player for the University of the
Philippines but got rejected. She
would eventually join Far Eastern
Universitys volleyball team and excel.

As her star shone brighter, so did the
sport of volleyball in the country. As
such she is often credited as the one
responsible in popularizing the sport
in a basketball-crazed country.
And yet even with all the accolades
she got, Rachel Anne is completely
down-to-earth. This is immediately
apparent in the way she would put
everyone at ease around her. During
the shoot, she would share jokes and
anecdotes with everyone. You would
think that with all thats been written
about her, her life is an open book.
But the girl is smart; she only allows
you to see what she wants you to see.
When asked probing questions, she
would only offer giggles. Ano ba to,

a lot of young people wonder how.

i have no wealth, i have no power,
i have no influence. But if you take
the trouble of knowing the age
of our heroes when they did their
heroism, youll see that Jose rizal
wrote the noli Me tangere when he
was 25 in 1886. andres Bonifacio
was 28 when he established
the Katipunan in 1892. emilio
Jacinto was 19 when he joined the
Katipunan and wrote the Kartilya
in 1895. Gregorio del Pilar was 24
when he died at the Battle of tirad
Pass in 1899, and emilio aguinaldo
was only 28 when he became
President in 1897.
needless to say, social
movements were spearheaded by
the youth, history was made by the
young. But these are names etched
in stone. they are national heroes.
Many of our young heroes emerged
during the Marcos dictatorship,
when civil liberties were curtailed
and going underground (u.G., i.e.
being a rebel) was an expression
of fighting for your rights. they
were students, but they were also
activists (tibak). at the time it was
cool, but as the life stories of our
heroes here prove, it was also fatal.
Many were arrested, tortured, and
died just for what they believed in.
they were not petty criminals, but
youth leaders and honor students
from various universities that were
pushed to the edge. there was a
time when you could not even read
a piece like this in a magazine
they died so you could. they were
dreamers and idealists, and we
need more of them now, not to
die, but to live to make the real

wrote about people in the

of the Lapiang Malaya and
the Rizalist Kapatirans of
Mt. Banahaw. In 1974, he
joined the New Peoples Army
in Mindanao. In 1976, the
military wounded him in a
raid in Davao del Norte. Two
of Eman's companions died in
the raid, and an 18-year-old
pregnant comrade was captured
alive with him. Both of them
were executed; his captors
fired .45 calibre bullets into his
mouth and chest. He was tied in
his ankles and dragged like a
pig to a common grave. He was
27. We dont usually realize that
a lot of our heroes are poets
Rizal, Bonifacio, and Eman.
Before he died, he wrote a

adherents of the inventor (the Kurzweill
K250 music synthesizer) and author (The
Singularity is Near) Ray Kurzweil call the
coming of the technological singularity.
As mobile and computing tech advances
faster, at an exponential rate, the singularity,
Kurzweil and his apostles predict, will
soon enable us to give birth to artificial
general intelligence. The singularity is thus
a hypothetical event in which humans
become the creators of another self-thinking,

likely surpass our own brains and abilities.
Hello, Matrix!
Kurzweil predicts the singularity will

once sick man of Asia is alive
and kicking. Strong economic
fundamentals and robust
domestic demand have finally
driven the Philippines out of its funkand
nowhere is this more apparent than in the
countrys property sector where in Metro Manila
alone, over 20 developments are reaching
completion this year and adding some pretty
interesting skyscrapers to the city skyline.
So no, the time to invest in Philippine
property isnt now, it was yesterdayat least
as far as property hot spots are concerned.
Parking your funds in prime locations like
the Makati and Bonifacio Global City central
business districts may all be well and good, but
if youre looking to do away with heftily priced
units and want a higher return in the long run,
then hunt for property in places that might not
make sense today. If you play the game right,
theyll make lots of lucrative sense later on.
Theres good reason why property investors
are known for obsessing about the next hot
spots. Time your entry well, and youll see
property values grow strongly within a short
period of time. The trick is spotting these future

Find areas before the ripple of growth

hits. If youre keen on investing in high growth
areas but have already missed the mark this
time around, then buy into its peripheries.
Check out surrounding suburbs. A good rule of
thumb when investing in capital-city suburban
markets: buy within 10 kilometers of the
central business district. Growth is virtually
assured to ripple that far out during a cycle.
