Neste G. Taala, host of CPU TV Program Centralian Profiles, interviews Yaneshla Aparicio and her mother Chrysta Aparicio.
In the era of social media, Millennials are keen to share whatever’s going on inside their minds. Most of the time, these posts are not being monitored by their parents. Can you blame these parents? They have their own busy schedules too. However, one mom shares her secret on how to be part of her child’s social media life.
In an interview on “Centralian Profiles” on August 7, Miss Chrysta June Aparicio shared that to be able to monitor her daughter’s posts online, she created a page, the Facebook account Chaela and CJ Moments, where both she and her daughter, Yaneshka Aparicio, are admins.
On the FB page where they upload their videos, Miss Chrysta always has the final say on what gets posted, and, according to her, her daughter is fine with that. It’s not about having lesser freedom than other kids have; rather, it is being more responsible with what you post: “Think before you click.”
“Social media really has a lot of effects on them … It’s really important that we, as parents, are guiding them,” Miss Chrysta June explained.
To recall, Yaneshka is a Grade 5 pupil of CPU who made a VLOG (Video Blog) “Alas Dose Na, Fresh pa ba Kayo?” which went viral with 1 million views, 17 thousand shares and 16 thousand likes.
Dionisio Coronado Jr. of the CPU TV Channel officially ends the station’s cable channel subscription to focus on social media in order to promote CPU events and profiles.
After more than two decades in partnership with a cable company, CPU has decided to expand its reach and go global! CPU TV will now be using Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/CentralPhilippineUniversityTV/) to broadcast live and recorded events. This initiative is a response to cope up with the technological trends of communication and to reach out to more Centralians across the globe by sharing the Central Spirit through social media and other forums to unite the growing community of CPU alumni.
In the past, CPU reached the consciousness of the viewers of Iloilo City through its partnership with cable companies (Skycable, Sun Cable and Cable Star with CPUTV Channel 33, 25, 8 and 31). The dedicated channel featured programs held at Rose Memorial Auditorium as well recorded materials or documentaries.

In a CPU TV interview later with the Governor at GSFA, Gumarin announced the approval of the budget for concreting the main road of the campus. The project which was proposed by the GSFA Alumni Association, Inc. is very significant to the environmental development cooperation undertaken with CPU-Haribon. Gumarin, who is also an alumnus of GSFA, thanked CPU and Haribon Foundation for its “Biodiversity on Wheels” outreach program and for the privilege extended to GSFA.
The roadshow presentation started at 10:00 A.M. with the Senior High School and their faculty. Mr. Cyrus Natividad, on behalf of the GSFA Alumni Association, Inc., welcomed the participants and acknowledged guests, faculty, and staff and the CPU team.
Prof. De los Santos gave a brief background about the CPU-Haribon “Biodiversity on Wheels” outreach project. Ms. Quezon expressed concerns regarding the environment and conveyed the provincial government’s support for the activities at the GSFA; she added, “We do not want what happened in Boracay to also happen in Guimaras. That is why we are implementing programs now to pre-empt the problem.” She also appreciated CPU and the Haribon Foundation for the support.
Dr. Romallosa and Dr. Luceño took turns in giving the presentation. Afterwards, the students wrote down their resolutions that would help conserve natural resources and sustain the environment. The advocacies were posted on the wire fence of the school.
The biodiversity program of Central Philippine University CESLC and the Good Shepherds Fold Academy Alumni Association Inc. provided insight and environmental awareness while the students, faculty, and staff of GSFA gave their commitment to change and help protect the environment.
