🏅 1st Place – ZM P. Roluna, Bachelor of Early Childhood Education
🥈 2nd Place – Norhanifa Mustapha, Bachelor of Science in Entertainment and Multimedia Computing

Meanwhile, the Quips & Quotes Contest celebrated the beauty of local language and wit, encouraging students to express clever and thought-provoking lines in Filipino. The winners who captured the hearts of judges with their originality and humor are:

🏅 1st Place – Princess Penelope Maglinte, Bachelor of Science in Internal Audit
🥈 2nd Place – Jeriemia Reyes, Bachelor of Science in Internal Audit

These contests not only showcased the creativity and intellect of the students but also emphasized the importance of literature, art, and language in shaping culture and identity.

Pasta and Precision: Students Nail the Guess in National Book Week Game!
Students show off their estimation skills in a fun twist to this year’s celebration.

As part of the 90th National Book Week festivities, the City College of San Jose del Monte added a fun and tasty challenge to the mix with the Pasta Guessing Game! With a simple question — “How many pieces of pasta are in the jar?” — students eagerly submitted their guesses, hoping to land the closest answer.

Two students stood out with their sharp estimating skills:

🎉 Rafael B. Onde, Bachelor of Public Administration – Guess: 615 pieces
🎉 Louise Angela Feliciano, Bachelor of Science in Management Accounting – Guess: 619 pieces

The exact number of pasta pieces in the jar? 617! Just two pieces away — an impressively close call from both winners!

This light-hearted game added a dose of excitement and joy to the week-long celebration, showing that Book Week isn’t just about reading — it’s also about community, creativity, and fun.
