Yes, meet my HANDSOME tomboy nicknamed ‘’MILES’’ whose natal day falls on April 24, 1971. Mylene is an educator by profession who spent her high school days at Joseph Morello Inst. (OS) in San Juan, Batangas. In the year 1988-89, she studied at San Sebastian College located at C.M. Recto, Manila.
She transferred to Mindanao State University, Maguindanao in 1989-94 where she finished her degree of Bachelor of Science in Secondary education. She acquired her Masteral degree in Physical Education at Phil. Normal University.
Mylene became a Sports Coordinator teaching Music, Arts, P.E., and Health (MAPEH) under the oblates of St. Joseph Morello Inst. in San Juan, Batangas. Her hobbies include indoor and outdoor ballgames specializing in volleyball since age 8. Born under the sun sign of Taurus, Miles would take a risk in whatever things she wanted to do. Israel ranks 2nd in the most controversial countries all over the world in her opinion. Despite the unceasing political dispute between Israel and the Arab world, Israel seems a heaven for her. One of the things that she like most is its cultural heritage, landscapes, historical buildings, and works of art inherited from thousands of years ago which are still beautifully preserved and maintained.
Just like any other individual whose desire is to set foot and see with their own eyes the beauty of Israel, she was amazed with the country’s alluring sceneries. She considers herself lucky and is thankful enough to be in the Holy Land. Furthermore, it’s for her a dream turned into reality when she reached the country.
Israel as a small nation has the ability to accommodate people from different countries with varied cultures and traditions. As an OFW, she said she loves the flexibility of jobs, the working conditions, and the employee-employer relationship.
Lastly, from the bottom of her heart, she wished to extend her warmest gratitude to the people who served as her all-out advocates, who in one way or another accompanied and aided her throughout her journey. Her favorite motto is: “Take the risk, suffer the consequence.”
She’d like to thank the ff: Quotes and Music family headed by Eliza Gonzales, Aim Global Alliance’s Dr. Erwin Labay, Adm. of That’s my Tomboy, FOWWA PRESIDENT Nilda Ramos, Mamus Angel team, Forever by Grace Pablo Malonzo, Viven Pastor, Madelin Zeglman, Macholm Rivera, Syak Atoy Bf Sarah, Pasay Gallos, Cha Nicole Cervantes, Brew Castro, Delle Aranaldo, Eve Casas, Marl and Mercy Militante, Nita Caraan and Yolanda Lucido, R and E Travel Agency, Batchmate 88, her brothers and sisters at Gamma Epsilon Frat and Sorority, her flatmates at no. 8 Yesud Hamaala and to all her supporters who never got tired of supporting her throughout the marvelous event.
