A Decade After
Our high school class (UST HS Saint Dominica '96) had a reunion yesterday to celebrate 10 years since we graduated from our beloved UST High. Being the class president, I took on the responsibility of planning and informing everyone about the said event. Medyo rush din yung preparations kasi Carol will be leaving already on the 19th. I wanted to setup something while she's still here so 1 week lang talaga yung naging preparations.
The original plan was we'll have dinner at El Pescador, Metrowalk but according to Jing, we need to reach a minimum of 20 pax to have the place reserved tapos kailangan pa ng deposit. Told her that more or less 15 pa lang yung nagcconfirm sa 'kin. I just suggested that we pick the place while we're there na lang. Anyway, there are several restos to choose from naman dun sa Metrowalk.
Come Saturday, may mga nagtext sa 'kin in the morning to inform me that they can't come daw. Well, hindi naman ako nadishearten. Whether onti lang or madami, kung sino man dumating basta ang important thing is that we'll have fun. And fun we definitely had. There were 13 ladies who attended. This is a major feat since the last reunion I organized na 6 lang kaming dumating. Ang nakakatuwa pa eh dumating sina Cecil, Kristine and Jhemma... graduation pa nung last ko silang nakita. Grabe! Hindi maubos-ubos ang chikahan at kamustahan. Funny kasi Myles brought pictures...tawa kami ng tawa sa mga itsura namin. Tipong mga naka-pigtales and braces pa ang karamihan. :P
We had dinner pala at Good Earth. We're lucky kasi vacant yung second floor so it's as if we had the place reserved for our exclusive use. Kawawa nga yung server namin kasi hindi matapos-tapos ang pagpapakuha namin ng picture sa kanya. Wehehe :P After having dinner, siyempre, bitin pa ang mga girls lalo na si Carol na sabik uminom. hehe Chill daw kami sa bar eh some of the girls wanted to have coffee na lang daw kasi magddrive pa sila pauwi. Kinantyawan namin si Carol na magbbar lahat kung manlilibre siya; she agreed without batting an eyelash. Ayos! So we surveyed the place for bars but none caught our fancy. We ended up at Decades kahit tipong high school kids ang crowd. Sabi ni Jing, high school kids pa rin naman tayo ah... 10 years ago nga lang. wehehe :P Then Myles realized na sakto na nasa Decades kami kasi we're celebrating 10 years since we graduated from high school. Galeng!
I would count yesterday evening as the most fun I had in months. It was only yesterday when I experienced laughing heartily again. Stories about our antics nearly made all of us roll on the floor laughing. I think everyone enjoyed the get-together as much as I did.
It was great to reconnect again with old friends and classmates. This is definitely not the last time that we'll see each other. In fact, we're already planning on another reunion this April, in time naman for Jecky's homecoming. They were suggesting na out-of-town trip naman. Hmmm...mukhang madugong planuhan yun ah. hehe Anyway, as long as everyone is in constant connection I think it's not impossible to gather all the ladies again for another get-together. 'Til we meet again, girls!
