Everyday is a good day.

About Me

Entire profile updated: January 13, 2007
Minor updates: August 26, 2007
I've had so many ups and downs. But I've been blessed this entire lifetime. And there's hope. -- Thanks to sistah Kat for the talk!
"I Still Have a Chance"
American Idol Season 3 second runner up Jasmine Trias visits.
The best joys in the world come from doing something you love to do and making a positive difference in people's lives. Working for the youth rocks.
All you really need to know about me is that one day when I was five, I stayed outside a little too long in the sun with my "Grandpa" Sendong while he was fishing. And that's why I'm browner than my parents. :D But if you really want to learn more about Patrick De Ocampo, read on!
Before I become a middle school teacher, I'm helping and having a great time with the coolest kids in the world...
Our funding has been cut. But our hearts and our passion are keeping this after-school program alive. My 2006-07 is dedicated to the coolest kids in the world! I wish you all could meet them or just hear their stories. They are the reason why I consider them good friends and invest a lot of my time for them in the first place.
Me in a nutshell: caring, helpful, fun-loving, smiles/laughs a lot, weird, outgoing, shy, friendly, sensitive, observant, and a guy still a few pounds overweight (I'm working on it! =P). I can be really shy at first, so it can take some time for me to be my out-going, fun, and friendly self!
Hmm..What else? I'm always complaining about time. I wish I had more time in my life to do all the things I want to do... And more importantly, I wanna spend more time with my family and friends. That's something I really need to work on. There's never enough time to spend with you all! It's weird, but I wonder a lot about how all my friends and family are doing. Also, I'm searching for long lost people here. Where are you guys?
Me on Friendster: Here.
Jasmine Trias. The Singer. The Movement.
We work for Jasmine.
We follow her career.
We support the performer, the personality, and the drive to succeed.
