Miss Caramoan 2005 Marianne Singson Bañas might as well prolong her reign up to 2006 since no contest will be held this May to find her successor. But she deserves to stay on the pedestal longer. Other than her beauty and charm, Marianne was valedictorian in elementary and in high school and is an academic scholar now in college.
