1. Hi Jenny. It’s nice to see you again. How are you doing?
2. “US secretary of State Mike Pompeo and Philippine Foreign Affairs Secretary Teodoro Locsin are
now holding a joint press briefing. Let’s listen in.”
3. “Vanessa and I have been friends for 15 years now. We met at the Star Circle Quest in the
Philippines. Even though we have this long-distance kind of friendship, but it never really felt that
way. I just want to let you know that I love you so much and I always want the best for you and you
know that. I just pray that you’ll always feel loved and special every day because that’s what you
deserve and more. May the love that you share today grow stronger as you grow older together.”
4. “The honorable chairman of the Senate Committee on Legislative Franchises, Senator Grace Poe.
The honorable members of the committee and the honorable members of the Senate, good morning.
5. “I’m gonna try not to cry. I know you guys have known us for fourteen years. So now I’m gonna go. I
didn’t quite cry so I’m happy with that and Croke Park. I’m gonna love you and leave you. Thank you
so much for this evening. It’s been a fantastic, fantastic show. Good night.”
6. “The greatest miracle of all is that simple bread and wine will be transformed into the Body and
Blood of Jesus on this altar. The One who made the blind see and the deaf hear will enter into us to
bring us healing gifts. For those who receive with faith, no other evidence is really necessary.”

7. “I can make one guarantee. If you want your voices to be heard, if you want a difference … then I
am the perfect choice.”
