It’s never too late to go back to your dreams and achieve them. That’s one lesson every young actor can learn from Jemina Sy.
Jemina first dreamt of becoming an actress, but she chose to finish her degree first. She became a lawyer, establishing her own firm. She recently put up her own talent and events agency called Gems Multi Media Events and Production Inc.
“I want to go back to my first dream. Gusto kong lumabas sa TV at sa movies ever since,” related Jemina.
She appeared in bit roles on the TV series “Maalala Mo Kaya” and in the movie “Recipe For Love.” Her first indie film was “Bubog” which won her the Most Promising Indie Actress award from Gawad Sining Short Film Festival.
“I never had formal acting workshop. I only did what the director wanted,” explained Jemina about her role in “Bubog” as a drug pusher turned police asset.
Jemina is also in “The Barker,” directed by Dennis Padilla and “Immaculada: Pag-ibig Ng Isang Ina” by “Bubog” director Arlyn dela Cruz.
Jemina’s talents are Clara del Rosario, Jerico Redrico, Alliyah Cadelina, Dominic Ramos, Abby Poblador, Michael Diamse, Jan Allen San Miguel and VJ Mendoza.

Mama Sita remembered
It was truly a very enjoyable evening when the family of the late Teresita “Mama Sita” R. Reyes celebrated the anniversary of their beloved mom, whose 100th birthday they remembered through a concert.
The joyous affair was held at the UP Film Center in Diliman last Sept, 29. “Ina,” as she was fondly called, nourished her family with delicious Filipino food, accompanied with unconditional love and Filipino values.
Her countrymen abroad could not have been happier with the Mama Sita’s products with easy-to-prepare methods accompanying each product.
She was the eldest daughter of Aling Asiang of the Aristocrat fame. Like her mom, she went to market herself buying the best in season. Her family remembers her singing songs while cooking. She loved God and her country, uniting people through food.
This concert, directed by Victor Sevilla, had the Andres Bonifacio Concert Choir with no less than Maestro Jerry Dadap as conductor, assisted by the RTU Tunog Rizalia Rondalia, with Prof. Lino Mangandi as conductor.
A much-applauded number was “Sa Kabukiran” sung by young and pretty soprano, Stefannie Quintin. Thunderous applause was given her as the audience was reminded of the late Lilian Velez, who popularized the song years ago.
The choir included three-year-old Eumi Maurin, also in Filipino attire. Her parents are part of the choir too.
