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!

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!

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!

Maraming salamat sa ating lahat!

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!

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!

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….

ADDITIONAL:

party on march 27 would feature:

- best 80s costume

nagkita-kita nung sabado, march 13. kasi 13th is a lucky date. alas 7.30 pm. kasi, wala lang

unang dumating? si ako at ang aking bebi. nag-antay sa starbucks. kumain ng keyk, uminom ng tsokoleyt chips n cream — si bebi ko yun ha. akin yung natira!

nagtext si mario na nahirapan maghanap ng parking; at sempre, dahil marami palang starbucks sa may bandang iyon ng mundo e naligaw din sya. tanong ni mario kung ilan na daw kami. sabi ko, dalawa. hindi ko na sinabi sa kanya na ako pa lang at yung bebi ko, hehe

mabuti na lang dumating na si cecil c. may dalang lafftafff, at sinumulan agad i-update yung address list. sumunod si ronald at nag text si cecille malantic (sya at ang kanyang team ang dahilan kung bakit ang ganda-ganda ng ating tickets! tenk yu, tenk yu talaga). nag text sya na may pahabol na correction ung tickets, pinasa ko kay cecil c na pinasa naman kay ronald (wala akong mobile number mo, pareng ronald). courtesy naman of ronald yung pag print ng ating tickets and kay cecil c naman yung papel. salamat din sempre.

dumating na rin si vanny at si cathy. dala ni vanny ang kanyang lafftafff. nakakatuwa na nakakalabit agad sya ng mga support at pledges sa mga batchmates nating asa malayong lugar. mabuhay ka, vanny! salamat. sempre, nag piktyuran na kami.

si cathy naman, suprise guest appearance. natuwa ako dahil hindi ko akalain na biglaan susulpot din itong nanay na ito. tenk yu talaga. at si raulan e nag apir na rin. at nagpiktyuran kami ulit.

at dumating na si joy, may excuse naman sya. dahil ang dami nga namang starbucks dun sa corner of the world na yun; sa ibang starbucks sya naghintay ;D mabuti na lang, uso na ang mobile phone.

naglipat bahay kami, dahil walang wifi o may bayad yata ang wifi sa starbucks. nagpunta ng coffee beans. tulog na po ang bebi ko nung mga oras na yon. kaya bitbit ni ronald ang aking malaking bag, lakad kami. nasalubong na rin namin si mario.

may wifi nga sa coffee beans, pero medyo maingay naman. kaya naman nag piktyuran ulit kami, mas importante yun para may ebidens na kyut nagmeeting kami, di ba naman.

 makatapos makabili ng kape at pagkain.kinailangan ko ng tumayo para masimulan ang meeting. kasi nga maingay, para rin mapansin ako.  medyo KSP talaga ako e.

at nagsimula na ang lahat. ang mga napagdesisyonan: (hinalungkat ko muna ang lahat ng bags ko para hanapin yung notebook na dala nung gabing iyon dahil andun yung mga notes, di ko sya makita, waaaa. mukhang naiwan ko yata sa tutuban!)

pero ayon sa aking utak na inalog-alog ko ay eto na nga:

confirmed ang venue: on march 27, 7:30 pm sa club intramuros

(kapag galing kayo ng roxas blvd, dere-deretso lang hanggang makalampas sa rotonda ng port area; eksaktong dun sa unang gate na paglampas dun; yun ang club intramuros.)

food and drinks: buffet with one order of iced tea; at salamat din kay popo, dahil nabigyan tayo ng NO CORKAGE and NO TIME LIMIT (sisiguraduhin kong nakalagay sa kontrata natin ito kapag naibigay ko na yung 50% deposit natin sa susunod na Martes), itatanong ko na rin kung meron mixer at CD player na may pitch control dun sa venue kasi nga dapat pang 80s tugtugan natin di ba?

mga pakulo: 

 1.) may pa-raffle (kaya wag ninyong itapon ang inyong stub) at sempre, kung sino ang may pwedeng ibigay sa pa-raffle natin e dalhin na lang po natin dun o kaya naman e kalabitin ang isa sa mga nakikita ninyo sa picture sa taas;

2. ) kung sino ang game na mag 80s costume ay welcome din, may special prize pero di pa alam kung ano sana may magdonate ;D

3.) meron din tayong mga 80s CDs na binubuo ni mario, ang ating resident DJ (salamat, mario!) gagawa ng design ay sina ronald at mario, pero tumutulong din si raulan (at si ramil) sa paghahanap ng pwedeng mag print nito

4.) may dagdag suhestiyon din na t-shirts naman

tickets: si ronald ang mag print, kay cecil and her team ang design; tulong tulong tayong lahat sa pagbenta. yung mga nagpadala ng sponsorship sa malayong lugar tulad ng US ay tatanggap ng tickets nila courtesy of fin. yung mga mahirap puntahan, pwedeng per email na lang? plisss ;D  at saka, nagkaron na nga ng bank accounts kung saan pwedeng magdeposito ng bayad at donations:

BANK ACCOUNTS
Please be informed that there’s a bank charge of 10$ per deposit in FIN’s bank, so we advice those who wanted to deposit in dollars to just send a CHECK and address it to:
