Before another day passes by, I want to thank you for all the support you have given me in our quest to have a Pinoy carry the Olympic torch once again after 4 decades of waiting. Thanks to your help, we landed in no. 2 making us one of the 100 finalists.
You can see the tally in the attached link:
http://www.chinadaily.com.cn/olympics/torch_page.html
Another link leads you to the top 100 from whom they will choose 8. 5 Filipinos have made it: me, Noel, Jimmy, Michelle and Jeremy, giving the Philippines a 5% chance. All very deserving. That is celebration enough. In the end, let’s just pray any 5 of us makes it.
For me, having united all Filipinos for a positive cause is victory in itself. Carrying the torch now will just be icing on the cake.
Thanks for the support! Mabuhay ang Pilipnas!
Always proudly Pinoy,
Marco
