From Manny L thru FB:
For our jammers, let us know of your desired jam song (be it a pop hit, something hip, or birit), so we’d inform our guitar player, Nar, of the songs that would send a scholar to school. Send me details (if you’d want to surprise everybody of your choice piece) or post here (so that our jammers would think of how to out-sing you). LEZ…GOW SAGOW!!!

Have fun everybody!

Adieu, Anna Virginia Urquiola

Died 07 November 2010, Interment on Saturday 13 November, 10am Manila Memorial Park Paranaque

Dear Anna,

Yes, we remember you.
Who would miss you out when you are one of the tallest girls in high school?
Added to that, you’ve got a nice tickling laugh.
And you are always sorrounded by friends.

As you would be now. We remember you. We do.
Some would be there to reminisce; so I am sure there would be tears and laughters. You would be there with them, right?

Some would be too far away, but  are praying for you and your family.  And wishing they are there, too.

Our thoughts are with you, dear Anna.

Dun sa mga close mo, dun sa mga feeling close mo , dun sa mga hindi mo close, dun sa mga magiging close mo dahil sa pagpanaw mo, para dun sa mga gagawin mong close dahil sa pagrereminisce, para sa mga taong nakaka-alala sa yo ng buong-buo, para sa mga taong makaka-alala sa yo bigla, para sa mga taong nais maiwan ang iyong ala-ala — andito ka sa aming puso, Anna.

Say hi to Sheila up there!

Adieu!

Yugyugan Updates

dumating si fenina flores

si tita cory (chona panis- aganita), sya ang naguwi ng best in costume, taob kami lahat!)

Medyo nakatulog ako ng konti, hanggang ngayon kasi di pa rin ako makarecover dun sa yugyugang nangyari nung Marso 27 e. Tapos sunod-sunod pa ang mini reunions, ang huling-huli ngang dumating e si Fenina Flores na ngayon ay sa US naman umiikot.

Kaya ngayon lang ulit ako medyo nagising at nagkaron ng pagkakataong mag report ulit.

Ano na nangyari nung pagkatapos ng yugyugan? Edi bumalik ang ating mga imported guest sa London (si Bella Batucan) at sa US (si Chibot o Susan de los Reyes) at sempre ang mga taga Cebu na sina Mark Batucan at James Polillo.

At nagkamal ng salapi ang ating SMA Grade School 82 and High School 86. Pumila kami agad sa bangko para mas lalo syang lumago. Ang mga pupirma sa ating yaman:

Raquel E.
Cecilia Malantic-Lee
Manolito Lamiel
Ronald Saquilayan

Napansin ninyo? two boys, two girls; two grade school batches boys, two girls all the way (grade school atsaka high school, ano ba) ;D

Ang pinasok namin ay 64,510.16 pesoses (March 29, 2010)
May natanggap akong bank statement period April 01-April 07 (64,337.30 kasi minus 175.00 debit memos which we assume would be the checks, at .54 centavos withholding tax)

May mga pumasok na hindi namin pa ma-account kung kanino at may mga iba pang pera na papunta pa lang daw. Sempre, i klaro din nating lahat yan.

Maraming salamat ulit sa lahat-lahat!! Hindi ko na sabihin kung sino-sino kasi antok na ako ;D

Tuloy ang project natin kay Audrey, ang Angel Reading at Crystal Workshop. Na postpone lang kasi medyo nawalan ng adrenaline. Nagpapalakas lang ulit. Ang tentative schedule ay sa November 2010. Patuloy kaming humihingi ng tulong kung sino ang makakatulong sa paghanap ng sponsorship ng hotels, snacks at flight tickets.

Meron pang isang project na pinag-iisipan din ng malalim. Ang jamming party, ang kailangan natin dito ay ang inyong mga talento. Itaas ang kamay ng mga magaling kumanta… at sumayaw! Umiikot pa lang kami sa istorya nito pero dahil mukhang masaya, why not, chocnut? Any other suggestion, please magiwan ng comment o magtext o mag FB.

Sa ngayon, sana ay nakapag-lakwatsa kayo sa Facebook para makita ninyo ang mga pictures nung yugyugan night, nung mga mini reunions, nung mga kita-kits, nung mga kulitan, nung mga kawayan… ah basta, maraming ebidensya, hanapin nyo na lang sa Facebook ;D Pramis, mag eenjoy kayo!

P.S. I am working on the sponsorship for our Angel Reading and Crystal Workshop rescheduled sometimes this November 2010. I have asked Agnes Jamias to help find sponsors for two tickets using Cebu Pacific Singapore-Manila-Singapore. I asked Bayview Hotel, City Garden Manila, Edsa Shangri-la, G Hotel Manila, Dusit Thani — for sponsorship possibilities. Since it is holy week, we need to wait until Monday to hear from them or for me to do follow-ups.

Anybody who could help, please leave a message sa FB or here. Salamat po!

Together As One – CD Tracklist

Ibalik ang nakaraan. Amuyin ang kabinataan at kadalagahan. Naakala mo ba nung 20 inches lang ang bewang mo? Nung ang haba pa ng buhok mo? Nung ang sarap ng converse kahit saan isuot?

presenting - Together As One - 80s CD

Our Souvenir for March 27, 2010

Pwes, bili na po kayo ng 80s music CD. Kasama nito ang inyong masayang ala-ala ng nakaraan, ate helen

Mag-iwan ng komento dito ang gustong bumili. Salamat po kay Raulan at Mario!

T-shirt Designs from Cecille M

Dear Friends, batchmates, classmates…

these are the shirt designs i made with my staff

selling these shirts will not make me any richer i guess, it’s just souvenir kasi wala pang nag offer gumawa so i did. but i mentioned sa FB thread na i will donate 10% of gross sales.

my I.T. staff salary is about 500 per day per person (designing takes a week at least kasi pag nagawa na nila pinapa edit ko pa to my liking), a shirt of good quality is about Php150 pag wholesale (100 pcs. minimum purchase) pag low quality 50 to 80 pesos so pag retail mas mahal per piece, low quality printing is 50 pesos, good quality printing is about 100 to 150 pesos, so when i sell at 250 walang kita yun abonado pa ako.

so if it’s mandatory to share profit, i’d rather not sell

however, as part of this batch, I will pledge to donate some amount for the 2011 Grand reunion and that is regardless if i will be able to sell shirts.

this is not my business ang business ko ay Sports/recreation facilities: Taekwondo gym, indoor golf driving range, indoor archery range, BINGO HALL, DISTRIBUTION of ELECTRONIC BINGO MACHINES in bingo halls all over pinas, game systems development, distibution at importation.

at may sine set up ako na foundation for the poor children/students sa Lipa.

may IT staff ako kasi every 2 weeks may big event sa bingo hall, we sell tickets, we put up tarpaulins, send out flyers, etc.

i said this kasi baka isipin isa ang tshirt printing sa business ko, it’s not to my advantage, pampadagdag sa sked ko to, kaya lang as i see sa mga reunions, they have common wear/attire that makes it appear nice sa pictures.

di ko na nilagay sa FB to kasi matrabaho pa.

just send me your inputs, suggestions, whatever. (LEAVE A COMMENT HERE, if you want)

I don’t think I need a formal approval for this kasi di naman harmful ang idea, wala naman masagasaan, at wala pa tayong FORMAL OFFICERS.

thanks for reading, see yah….
