It was only once my dream to get to introduce myself to #DonBelle in a deeper, more personal and more intimate level, different from how they usually know me, more so, having to be able to thank them for simply changing my life and bringing my two sisters in it as a bonus.
I wrote the letter from the AVP Ate Sarah posted with the intention of only to let my pain out after “that” first podcast😂😭then I decided to make it a version that’s coming from the three of us and take the chance of showing it to #DonBelle if we get permitted to on our private screening. Neither the three of us watched the final product of the AVP and while we were busy reacting ourselves, our media team for the day got to capture glimpses of Donny and Belle’s priceless reactions while watching.
P. S. wdym it was my voice that was narrating in that video they were watching, listening and reacting to?! my writer self is so proud! ❤️🩹

These committees did not just help, they gave their all. Blood, sweat, and tears. 🙏🏻
Despite all the problems that came our way, uncertaintly if we could sell all the tickets, limited sponsorship support, doubts if we could cover all the expenses, last-minute changes, lack of sleep, tight schedules, communication gaps, unfair treatment, misunderstandings, and negative assumptions, we still made it through. 🥹
There were moments of pressure, exhaustion, and confusion, but we kept going anyway. We showed up, helped each other, and trusted the process until the very end. 🙌🏻
And now, we can finally say we made it. ✨
After almost 4 months of planning, stress, and sleepless nights, I can finally be back to my normal self. 🥹
Sobrang invested ko. There were times when I couldn’t reply to my husband because I was busy sending ticket confirmations. There were days when I had to take calls with brands and cinemas during work hours.
At one point, I was even dreaming about the blockscreenings. The emotional stress also gave me tension headaches, lalo kapag may mga problems in between, and there were days when I had to go to the office clinic because of it. 🥺
For almost 4 months, this was my life.
And seeing everything come together made it all worth it. 🤍 Donny and Belle, Tayo Sa Wakas, and DonBelle Official are worth coming back for. ✨
Donato and Belinda, these are the family we’ve built because of Tayo Sa Wakas. 🥹
These people have nothing but pure intentions for the both of you. Everything they do comes from a place of genuine love, care, and support for your journey. 🤍
And I am sure that these people will continue to wait for you until you come back. Until then, we’ll continue supporting each other, keeping this family together, and getting ready for whatever comes next. ✨
PS. We’re always ready to work on another event for the both of you. 😉

Grateful to be with you in every era, Ate Karren. From day 1 up to now, kung saan ka, dun kami. Crazy how we were just people who were finding ways to get a slot for HIH S2 Screening, and now we’re here working together in a block screening. I love you, ate @donbelleEGcutie ! 🤍
To Martha and Sy, thank you for accepting our invite to be part of the committee. 🙏🏻 You may not have been part of the initial planning team, but you never became a burden to us. In fact, you made everything easier. You were quick to follow instructions, quick to adjust, and it felt like you already knew exactly what’s needed to be done.
Thank you for supporting Ate Kaye since day 1. 🥹 And when I say day 1, I don’t just mean this Tayo Sa Wakas era, but even way back during the HIH era. You don’t know how much it means to me that you chose to help us now. Having both of you on the team was such a big help.
To be honest, this makes me emotional. 🥺 For a long time, we were simply trying to find our place in DonBelle ganaps. And now, seeing us do all these things together makes me so happy. No gatekeeping, no exclusivity.
I am happy that you finally got the interactions and experiences with Donny and Belle that you truly deserve. After all your efforts and support through the years, seeing that happen for both of you means so much to me. I love you so, so much, @always4db_ and @bubbledbsy! 🤍
Malamok nga kasi raw sa kwarto ni Donny🥹 May kulambo pa nga daw eh diba belinda🥹🤪

Sleep well kayo jan sa Casa Donato with TSW Team & Direk Cathy sana di kayo lamukin 😆
#DonBelle
WE MADE A DONBELLE BLOCK SCREENING HISTORY, BATANGAS!! 🥹
It feels so fulfilling yet pressuring at the same time to have my home province be visited by two persons whom I call home.
Just last May 31, Sunday, I was made aware by my “mader sister” 😂 @fearlessDB__ that DonBelle will be going to Batangas today, June 3 for block screening visits and asked me if I was willing to spearhead an entire block screening under DonBelle Official since this is my hometown. To be honest, I have been dreaming for a block screening for #TayoSaWakas here in Batangas way before the film even began showing yet we at dbofc was still short for budget at the time. For context, the smallest cinema in Lipa has a seating capacity of 419. Last Sunday, I was hesitant deep inside to commit myself kina Ate Sarah and Ate Kaye kase wala makakasama saken to help me from our committee. Napa oo nalang ako kase wala ako madahilan na busy ako kase di naman ako busy this week because naka sembreak kami sa univ. Nakakatakot kase magrisk, ang daming slots ang kailangan mabenta but surprisingly, Team Batangas caught me off guard. They were full support and helped me invite and spread the word. In just a day, lumabis kami sa target seating capacity na 419 seats kaya biglaan kami nagdecide kahapon lang to get the biggest cinema in this province with over 644 SEATS. In less than 24 hrs that I opened the form for a bigger cinema, SOLD OUT AGAD!!! 🥹😭 dali dali na naman ako nagclose ng form.
Grabe Batangas, sabi nga ng team ng Star Cinema saken kanina, pasabog daw tayo!!
First, I’d like to thank our team for today’s block screening who all travelled from Manila at 6AM. Ate Alexa, who willingly tagged along to help me out from props to registration and everything. @sayinDB_ Sof, who headed our media team and simply became the one who kept on assuring if I was okay and if I ate and calmed me down as I was stressing for last minute preparations despite her having an internship duty this week, she came all this way with me, thank you. @BelleyniDonato Francine, who willingly tagged along, helped out despite not being part of the ofc and became one of my support system for this day. Ates @sachisluv, @Megz_DB, @_vnssvelasquez and @airatheknees for willingly and wholeheartedly helping us out since last night until today. Of course, every bit of this day would not be possible if it wasn’t for the guidance and support of @DonBelleOFC most especially Ates @donbelleEGcutie, @db_andriellavc and my sister @fearlessDB__
Also, thank you @kambalnibelle for helping me with online inquiries.
From all the pakulo we could make the best out of in just two days preparation hahaha, the Bacon Knitted Garland, the Leni Kiko Rally at Batangas Funko Pop of #DonBelle, the Bacon vs. White curtain themed Cake and for simply the overflowing love and support Donny and Belle received in a cinema filled of 644 screams and smiles all for them. Thank you for all the appreciation and even the smallest bit of donations our fellow Batangueños willingly gave to make everything possible.
You did not fail me, my hometown!! This is all for you, @donnypangilinan and @bellemariano02. I love you both so much. All sacrifices, stress and efforts were all worth it. I’m proud.❤️🩹

Our Tayo Sa Wakas blockscreening journey officially began on May 27 at the Wolfgang Premiere Cinema, the very first screening attended by Donny and Belle before they started visiting cinemas across Metro Manila. ✨
This special screening was made even more memorable as we welcomed some of our favorite TikTok content creators, movie reviewers, and guests who helped kick off this incredible journey with us. 🎬
A special thank you to Sanicare for providing hankies, wet wipes, and cooling wipes for our guests, making their screening experience even more comfortable. 🤧💚

Hello. Kaya po kami natatagalan sa pag verify kasi 400+ submissions. Tapos yung iba ID lang ang inuupload as proof of payment. Yung iba naman, wrong gcash number or wrong amount. Yung iba, random bank accounts na hindi naman amin. Huhu. 😭
Malapit na po kami magsend. Konting tiis lang bubblies. Salamat po! 🙏🏻
