Last weekend was for the books. We celebrated our 15th year high school reunion for three straight days. Yes, not once but thrice! LOL! They say no batch parties like batch 1996 of Silliman University High School. I'm happy I belong to that batch. :)
Prom Night is the theme of the reunion dinner
There's a pictorial area near the reception
Our class president Sanda welcomed us on video
I love the detail of the flower vase - HS pictures inside the vase
With my classmates at Tierra Alta
Picture, picture!
We danced the night away to 90's hits
Cheers!
The following day, we attended Silliman University's 110th Founders Day Parade
We were a rowdy bunch, always stopping to take pictures of ourselves. :))
After the parade, I stopped by my high school dorm that's now a transient house
Trespassed just to see my former room
Had my picture taken with the Silliman portal
We also stopped by the booth area
Then inuman at kainan sa Hayahay!
Walang katapusang photo op!
Hayahay scene that night
I don't drink. Promise.
Day 3 is Family Day
My classmate's daughter Tara is so kawaii!
Then we dined at KRI.
Seriously, the food here is delicious! Look, empty plates!
Had dessert at the newly-opened Poppy Coffee & Cupcakes in Portal West
Capped the reunion weekend off in Hayahay.
Truly had a fun weekend. Actually, I'm already looking forward to the next reunion! Haha!
So anyway, thanks to my high school classmates, hindi naman totally malungkot ang December ko so far. Last week kasi they went to Singapore for vacation and since may stopover sila sa Manila to and from Singapore, nagkita-kita na rin kami together with our other Manila-based classmates. Arhnel and I drove them around and since turista mode sila, naki-turista mode na rin ako and joined them in their picture-taking marathon. :)
Needless to say, I had fun being with them. I miss high school! I feel super blessed to have formed solid friendship with my HS classmates. On their last night here before they went back to Dumaguete, we relived our IPR sessions (that's the Silliman High version of Truth or Dare :D) in their hotel room. Ang saya kasi hindi na siya wholesome ngayon! Haha!
No, this is not one of those forwarded surveys. These are, rather, high school videos that Franco, our Dawson Leery, shot more than twelve years ago using his ancient video camera. While I'm amazed that he was able to salvage the videos and in effect, preserve some happy high school memories (thanks Franco! :D), I'm also embarrassed of myself in the videos! Was I really that skinny and happy back then? LOL! And ugh, there's a perfect capture of me, the favorite bully victim, being thrown into the pool by big guy Arhnel! (Haha, peace Nel!:D)
See for yourself...

Seriously, I really miss high school! Manila peeps Janette, Jovi, Cris Jude, Pajo, Arhnel and Randy, we should get together soon! :)
