Maryknoll Miriam Family of Writers Library's magnetizing Ricky Lee's "Sa Puso ng Himala"

On the second floor of the Library Media Center or LMC cataloged FIL PN 1998.2 L44 2012 was a book donated by an alumna named Raquel Villavicencio Nepomuceno whose signature I believe was written intentionally and shown below its author's name as if she co-wrote the book with Filipino screenwriter, novelist, and playwright Ricardo Lee who has has written more than 150 film screenplays since 1973, earning him more than 50 trophies from various award-giving bodies, including a 2003 Natatanging Gawad Urian Lifetime Achievement Award from the Manunuri ng Pelikulang Pilipino (Ricky Lee-Wikipedia, 2018).

Himala's production designer Villavicencio is Maryknoll College, Communication Arts, Batch 1972 donated the 945th copy of 1,000 to the Maryknoll Miriam Family of Writers Library which served as the first book I've read after first four weeks of working as library supervisor to Higher Education Unit Library Media Center (HEULMC) of Miriam College.

Villavicencio's great act of donating her book copy to her Alma Mater allows readers to finally trace the roots how it all started: how the eyes of a 4' 11'' Bicol barrio lass have become superstars in their own right, how they have been talked about many times especially whenever Ms. Nora Aunor would have a film to show in cinemas, there would have backlashes from Vilmanians. Sa Puso ng Himala says it straight that her eyes speak so much and make dialogues, stimulate co-actors to level up and do beyond with her in silence, quietness and stillness in shootings and scenes. Leaf through pages of the blue book and you will discover too a secret to this long mystery that has yet to be resolved, child's till adulthood long puzzle of many waiting for a long time to be revealed instantly by not running up hills of Cupang, Ilocos Norte but a walk to remember going up through LMC's stairs to Maryknoll Miriam Family of Writers Library established in 2013.
