Kitty in celebration of a wonderful life for a girl who is now
turning into a fine lady. We are gathered here tonight at

Today is July 27, 2023. We are gathered here tonight to
witness the transformation of a young girl into a beautiful
lady.
JAYMAR: I am very lucky for I am chosen to be here and be
part of this momentous occasion in the debutante’s life.
Before we start the program I would like to introduce myself
first, perhaps some of you may already know me. I am Jaymar
Hadap, 21 years old and currently studying at Aemilianum
College Incorporated, Sorsogon City. I am fourth Year College

taking up Bachelor of Arts in Communication and currently
residing at Brgy. Somal-ot, Casiguran, Sorsogon.
JAYMAR: I have been hosting since 2018. I was a former staff
at AITV5 Aemilianum a television and radio station (DWAM –
FM 94.3 MHZ) of Aemilianum College owned and
administered by the Somascan Fathers. Former program

JAYMAR: A 7th birthday marks almost the steps from youth to
young adult, with all its relative responsibilities. Join us as we
celebrate this wonderful girl’s coming of age. Let’s all
celebrate as our girl becomes a full-bloomed lady tonight, as
our girl turns 7. All of you who are here tonight have watched
the debutante grow over the years into a wonderful person
she is now. You see her grow up, you see her smile, you see
her laugh, you see her everything, and now we are about to
see her as a grown up lady. A lady of good heart, character,
and ambition.
JAYMAR: Again, welcome to the party of our charming
debutante who is now turning into a fine lady. This is a quite
very important event in her life and she is very much honor
for your presence. No more fairy tale stories every night
because she is now a real lady as she stepped onto the much
higher level of what we called ‘Life’. Ladies and gentlemen, sit
back as we groove, jive, and enjoy her party tonight!

 ENTRANCE OF THE FAMILY MEMBERS
JAYMAR: At this juncture ladies and gentlemen, it is my honor
to present to you the Laudin Family the ever supportive and
loving family of our debutante without them her life would be
empty and unhappy. Sabi nga nila “marami tayong
mahahanap na kapuso, pero iisa lang ang ating kapamilya”.
Let us all give a big round of applause to honor all the people
whom she truly loved. Let’s begin with her elder brother
Leomark N. Laudin, her younger brother JL N. Laudin and
finally the proud parents Mr. Leo Fusana Laudin and Mrs.
Jenilyn Nallos Laudin.
JAYMAR: A big round of applause please to Laudin Family.
Thank you very much.
GRAND ENTRANCE OF THE DEBUTANTE
JAYMAR: In a land not so far away, there was once a little girl
with a beauty of a princess. Born on the 27th day of July, year
of 2016, this girl is the first daughter among the children of
Mr. Leo F. Laudin and Mrs. Jenilyn N. Laudin. This girl grew
up with so much love and kindness. She is loved by everybody
for her beauty inside and out. Her voice is an angel. Her smile
bears no limit. Her heart is unafraid. Her mind is ready to try.
She’s ready for any adventure for the sake of fun and
friendship. More refined than shy, more adventurous than
playful, more charismatic than charming, more alluring than
beautiful. Indeed, she has all grown up and what a sight she
has become. Ladies and gentlemen, I have the honor to
introduce to you the debutante. Let us all stand as we
welcome the debutante as a woman of grandeur now hot and
legal. Escorted with her father Mr. Leo F. Laudin. Let’s give a
big round of applause for our dazzling lady of the day for Ms.
Jhennica Mae Nallos Laudin! Around of applause please!

WELCOME MESSAGE
JAYMAR: Wow, blooming and lovely, indeed! Ang tanong saan
nga ba siya nag mana? Kay mommy ba o kay daddy? Or baka
both? Evidently, before today, Nica has had happy years in a
very happy home. The love of a family will always be GOD’s
greatest blessing, Amen. Sabi nga nila, in life we can have
several friends, classmates, and social circles, but there is only
one family who is always willing and ready to welcome us no
matter what. Ladies and gentlemen, to welcome all of us to
their lovely daughter’s 7th birthday party, here are Mr. Leo F.
Laudin and Mrs. Jenilyn N. Laudin.
JAYMAR: Thank you for that heartwarming message, Mr. and
Mrs. Laudin.
INTERVIEW TO THE DEBUTANTE
JAYMAR: You look so gorgeous today. Ano ang
nararamdaman mu ngayun? Panu ka nag handa para sa
espesyal na araw na ito? What did you look forward for
today’s celebration? Before you enjoy your day today let me
ask this question saan ka nga ba talaga nag mana? At bakit?
(Ask the debutante random questions)
JAYMAR: We want you to feel comfortable and just enjoy the
day together with your family and friends who are present
today because at the end of the day it’s not your parent’s
birthday and definitely not your friend’s birthday because
after all it’s your special day. We want you to make this
moment yours and make this day a special day for you. We
want you to make this day a memorable one. You can now
have your sit. So, sit back relax and enjoy the rest of the day.

her unconditionally.
HOST: Willa Cather once said: “Where there is great love,
there are always wishes”. Because birthdays are always new
beginnings, new endeavors with new set of goals, sending
birthday messages and wishes is a tradition especially in our
country, where we give high value to family ties and
relationship. Tonight, ladies and gentlemen, I present to you
these 18 wishers for our debutante. These are the people
close to the heart of our celebrant, and whom she listens and
confides to for inspiring words and friendly advices. Of course
the people will be the ones who will give her advices and kind
words along the way on how to become a better woman.

for all the well – wishers for our dear ________________, here’s
Mrs. ___________________!

their prayers to the heavens, so, at the count of three,
members of the 18 candles, let’s say “May all our wishes come

love and affection but they can also send a variety of
messages. Messages of forgiveness, purity, modesty, hope,
beauty, and love. The 18 roses signify 18 very special
gentlemen in the life of the debutante like her friends,

SINGING OF BIRTHDAY SONG, BLOWING OF THE CANDLE
& CUTTING THE CAKE TO BE OFFERED TO HER PARENTS
HOST: Let me share another good – to – know trivia to
everyone on how birthday cakes and candles came about as a
tradition during birthdays. Some believe that the tradition of
birthday candles began in Ancient Greece. Putting candles on
12
a cake was a special way to tribute to the Greek moon
goddess, Artemis. They baked round cakes to symbolize the
moon. Candles were added to represent the reflected
moonlight. Today’s tradition of making wishes before blowing
out the birthday candles may have started with that belief.
Enough of all those did – you – know trivia because at this
part of the program, our lovely and stunning debutante will
blow the candles on her birthday cake. And to complete that
customary practice, let us sing joyfully a song I am very sure
everybody is familiar with, the happy birthday song. Music
maestro!
HOST: (Leads the singing of happy birthday song). Let’s give
18 claps for the debutante. Thank you very much. You can
now blow your candles and make a wish. It is now time to cut
the cake. As she has reached the maturity, she will now cut
the cake and give a portion to her parents as a symbol of her
love and gratefulness to them.
HOST: There you have it ladies and gentlemen, the circle of
important persons in the life of our debutant. Let’s give them
a big round of applause. And of course let’s have a group
photo with the debutant.
THE DEBUTANTE’S SPEECH
HOST: Tonight’s celebration tells me that the best
demonstration of gratitude in response to a wonderful
experience like this can be contained in an overwhelming
thank you. Maraming salamat po for making me a part of this
memorable occasion. And if there’s one person here tonight
who is more than grateful to see all of you that would be our
beloved celebrant, ___________________. Tonight’s celebration will
not be complete without hearing any message from the
debutante herself. Let us give this time for our debutante to
13
express her gratitude for all of us here. I’m giving the floor
now to our debutante, Ms. _____________________. Let’s give her a
big round of applause!
CLOSING REMARKS
HOST: It is our pleasure to be part of this significant
celebration of the debutante’s life. Tonight is not the end but
the beginning of a longer road to walk. To our dear debutante,
we wish you nothing but the best that life can offer. And with
that our program has officially concluded. On behalf of our
debutante’s family, I would like to thank you for all making it
to this wonderful celebration of ____________________ 18 th
birthday. For those who are going home, may God bless you,
be safe everyone, and for those who are staying, the night is
still young and the floor is now open for dancing. Again,
maraming maraming salamat po for having me here to
celebrate with all of you. This has been your host, Jaymar
Hadap, now signing off at nag iiwan nang isang katagang
“hindi man kagandahan, hindi man kakinisan pero
pinipilahan”. Enjoy the rest of the night everyone! Thank you
and goodnight!
