MANILA, Philippines -- Nearly three months after the elections, An Waray Representative Florencio “Bem” Noel has finally been proclaimed as the newest member of the House of Representatives.

Noel’s entry has brought the number of members in the House to 238.

The House stopped its session momentarily Tuesday to allow the re-elected partylist lawmaker to take his oath at the Speaker’s podium. He was joined by colleagues in the opposition, led by Minority Floor Leader Ronaldo Zamora.

Ey Apryll... are you from Ateneo too?

If you are, we might have bumped into each other during the 2005 Bar review. I was reviewing in Ateneo.

plang esq said...

am a proud and true UPian... but despite that, i enrolled in Ateneo for the bar review (for reasons apart from the actual bar. haha.).

Janjan Perez said...

So we REALLY were reviewing in Ateneo at the same time!!! :) Small world!!!

Apryll, been meaning to ask you this; What does Carpe Luna mean? Like seize the moon? or be lunatic every full moon? hehehe pero seriously ha, ano it meaning hito?

Janjan Perez said...

Hehehe, good point. If it's the opposite of Carpe Diem (Seize the Day), I think the more correct literal antonym (Seize the Night) would be Carpe Noctii. :)

plang esq said...

i know that the right term for "seize the night" is "carpe noctii."

"carpe luna" is a standing joke between me & my best friend. arlene keeps on telling me that i tend to seize the moon, especially when it's full. haha. :)
