It has been 21 years since we graduated from High school. I wouldn't trade my experiences from those years. Those were the best ones that talked much about triumphs, defeats, friendships and new adventures and undertakings. It was the introduction of how far youthfulness, strength and energy can make you invisible at times. Life was ahead of you and you have that feeling that you can conquer the world and be hopeful about it. High School years were by far the greatest and best chapter of your youthful life.
So it was February 19, Saturday and everyone was gathered at the Don Bosco Seminary in Lawaan, Talisay.
As I looked around, I felt such peace and joy to see my batchmates and how much the years have changed us physically, individually, professionally, socially and even culturally, yet that day we were all of the same ground reminiscing the fun years of high school. It was as if we were transported back in time when our teen years reminded us of the many "kalokohan" and the endless naughty stuff we did that brought so much laughter and tears. It was indeed a beautiful, memorable day.
As the day ended, I couldn't help but be excited of what the future brings for us. I believe God made it all possible for us to be all together, not just for reminiscing the year's past, but looking forward to know what greater purpose we can accomplish. The future is truly bright for we rest it in God's hands.
To HS Batch 90 of CCC/UC, wherever you may be, may the Lord bring you great blessings and more years to count.
Kudos everyone!

Great blog Lyn. I hope someday i get to blog about the things i love to do but i guess time and alot of responsibility prevents me. Maybe if a day would become a 48hr journey now that can certainly give me enough time to do the things i've been dreaming to do. But i guess am just dreaming :)
Great post, Lynnie. I share in the sentiment. Glad to be a part of it in some way even though I was thousands of miles away. It was good to see your faces, though just briefly; to hear your voices, though not so clearly. I felt like I was there, seeing the room, the dancing and a little bit of what's going on (while the video was working). I also loved it when I heard our graduation song play, "Constant Change" by Jose Mari Chan. That made me nostalgic for those high school days. Oh, to be in high school again. It's one of the best experiences of my life. Kudos to everyone for a job well done!
