PANAY (Capiz)
PANAY (CAPIZ) So the wedding bells have been wrapped up and The Kokobears are off to our round 2 reception at Roxas City. The schedule was a real deal hectic one.

There is that time of our life when we tend to feel so high, high-spirited, happy, confident, and boastful at times, free… etc.…
