Womenality

I saw Shalani Soledad, a counselor from our hometown, Valenzuela City several times already. I think she’s really beautiful, inside and out. Her simplicity simply defines her beauty. Even she’s the girlfriend of the most powerful person in the country today(Pres. NoyNoy Aquino), she remained to be humble and approachable. So sad, that she landed on #2 spot in the Top 10 Prettiest Pinay Politicians.

Here’s the complete list:

10. LOREN LEGARDA

9. FATIMA ALIAH DIMAPORO

8. EMMELINE AGLIPAY

7. RACHEL MARGUERITE “CUTIE” DEL MAR

6. ABIGAIL FERRIOL

5. JANNAH EJERCITO

4. DARLENE CUSTODIO

3. RISA HONTIVEROS

2. SHALANI SOLEDAD

1. MONICA LOUISE “NIKKI” TEODORO

hmm…where’s Lucy Torres and Lanie Mercado? Oh according to the list “(By the way, we’ve purposely excluded artistas-turned-politicians for obvious reasons.)”

In a solid Catholic country, September is one of the most important months for us. We usually call this the as the Marian month as we celebrate the birth of Mary (mother of Jesus).  Mary of Nazareth was born on September 8, 20 BC?  and believed to have died on August 15, 45 AD?. However, many believe that she did not die. She was ascended into heaven on December 8.

Belated Happy Birthday!
