IV-Commitment Highschool Class Pic

Class Picture After 10 Years

Last April 28, our highschool fourth year class held a reunion at Serj’s place. With the alcohol from the previous night’s inuman with my blogger friends still swirling within my system, I dropped by Goldilocks to buy Black Forest Party Cake that I’d bring to the reunion party. I was so excited really because some of the people who’d be going to the reunion are those that I haven’t seen in years.

I arrived late, but I think it’s just okay because there are still other people who came in later than I did. Hahaha!
The attendees of the party (see pic above, from L-R, top to bottom):

1. Serj (But, of course, he’s the owner of the place. And specialist of the famous Kalderetang Baka. The barkada’s official photographer and tagapagmana ni Mang Jack. Hehe)
2. Ronald (a.k.a. Biggie. Famous for his coleman. And madamot sa paper. Hahaha!)
3. Vinnie (we just can’t accept that he’s a Christian Living highschool teacher now hahaha!)
4. Chowl (Our Globe connection)
5. Nel (The boy’s choreographer and Mutya’s hubby)
6. Jayson (The first one rumored to have a kid during college. Or the first one after Shey? Hehe)
7. Jerome (the guy with the biggest change puede na sila magkapatid ni Biggie )
8. Eloi (fresh from Dubai)
9. Jenny (videoke Queen)
10. Mia (Mom-to-be)
11. Vane (May-ari ng SM hehe)
12. Mutya (bestfriend ko dito. Mommy ni Chanelle. Nel’s wife)
13. Anna (class muse. And pretty pa din)
14. AJ (Pintasera daw pero mellow na siya ngayon. One of my coffee and badminton buddies. Vault ko din)
15. Ailyn (May-ari ng PAL. Haha. Jetsetter ang lola)
16. Diosa (She’s good with kids and Videoke Queen din)
17. Olie (Wife of Francis)
18. Francis (Model hubby na siya ngayon)
19. Grace (Bestfriend ko “doon”. Hehe. Just came home from Texas where she’s working.)
20. Ram (The Organizer and the Planner. Always, with only few exceptions. Lagi ding kasali sa mga Love triangle)
21. Me!

Some of my classmates went home a bit earlier (around 11pm) because some still have work during Sundays. It was kind of killjoy but I do have to understand why they have to leave. I, for one, even have a 24-hour duty the next day, but still I stayed because I know times like a highschool reunion happens only once after several years.

In the end, though, only AJ, Ram, Serj, Biggie, Ailyn, and Vinnie were left. And guess what? We stayed up until 5 am. AJ even had the idea to just make it an overnight party (overnight? Hello? It’s already morning) but Serj had to leave for Subic at 8am. So, we have to wrap up at 5 am. I got home a few minutes after and went straight to bed, trying to catch some Zzzz’s, even just a couple of hours, before I go off to my 24-hour duty in the hospital.

It has been a successful reunion and I wish we could have it repeated again soon. It’s not anymore important if we have an expensive catering or just bring assigned food and drinks in a friend’s house. What is important is we would be able to get updates on one another’s lives, making sure everybody knows that we are still keeping in touch despite living separate lives and that we are friends through and through.
