In the vibrant world of 2007, two students from De La Salle Lipa—Marice and Jasper—found themselves navigating the lively landscape of Yahoo Messenger.

Marice, a cheerful and outgoing girl, was known for her infectious laughter and bright spirit. Jasper, on the other hand, was more reserved and introspective—quiet but deeply thoughtful, with a passion for gaming.

It all began with a simple “hello” in a chat room dedicated to their studies. Their conversation sparked instantly, filled with laughter, teasing, and a sense of connection that felt rare and special. Marice's bubbly personality drew Jasper in. Their conversations began playfully, with Marice often teasing Jasper about his quiet demeanor. Late-night chats turned into daily routines as they discovered more about each other—favorite movies, childhood stories, and their dreams for the future.

Over time, their friendship deepened into something more meaningful. With each chat, Marice found herself drawn to Jasper’s gentle nature, while Jasper admired Marice’s ability to light up any room. Their chemistry was undeniable, but it took some time for Jasper to gather the courage to express his feelings.

Finally, one day, he took a leap of faith. He invited Marice out for a simple date at Robinsons Lipa Mall, where they shared fries and stories, laughter filling the air. It was during this date that Marice realized how much she cherished Jasper’s presence, and soon after, they began courting.

On November 13, 2008, after a year of getting to know each other, they officially became a couple. It was a moment filled with joy and promise, celebrated with friends and sweet notes exchanged between classes. They were young and hopeful, ready to face the world together.

As they grew together, Marice and Jasper discovered a mutual passion for travel. They explored the beauty of their country and beyond, creating unforgettable memories—from beach getaways to cultural adventures. Each trip brought them closer, allowing them to experience life’s wonders hand in hand.

Fast forward to October 8, 2023, when Jasper planned a special surprise for Marice during a trip to Bangkok, Thailand. They were on a charming cruise along the Chao Phraya River, surrounded by Marice’s cousins, who had joined them for the adventure. The atmosphere was magical, with the sunset casting a warm glow over the water and the city’s lights beginning to twinkle in the twilight.

As they enjoyed the view, Jasper felt a mixture of excitement and nerves. He knew this was the moment he had been waiting for. When the cruise reached a serene spot on the river, Jasper took Marice’s hand and guided her to the side of the boat, where the lights of Bangkok danced on the water.

In front of family and friends, they will exchange vows, celebrating their love that had grown through laughter and challenges. They will embrace the future with excitement, knowing that together, they could face anything life had in store. Their journey is a beautiful reminder that love can bridge the gaps between two different personalities, creating a partnership that thrives on both cheerfulness and calm.
