From the old Archives

Listen to article

While cleaning up the other vacant room last night, I thought I’d sort out the stuff in the boxes of books and magazines before I stack them back in the storage room. I found my old high school album with several pictures in them still intact. I scanned a few so I can archive them later to my iPod Photo.

high school graduation

The picture above is one of the few I really liked because I think it’s probably the only existing picture I have with me and my folks in it. To top it off, my grandma and several aunts are also in it. (From left: my Mommy Sario and Mommy Go on my father’s side, my Father, my Mom, me, my bestfriend Freddie who’s gonna be a doctor soon, my Lola Garet from my mom’s side, and Tita Dedan, Freddie’s mom.) We refer to our aunt’s and uncle’s on my father’s side, mommy and daddy.

This year marks the 10th year of our high school graduation from Iloilo National High School (Special Science Class) and I heard we’re going to have our very 1st class reunion this December. (Photo was taken on March 25, 1995)

Dami pala sayo ah! hehehe…. yaman na ng SSC. :D The science and math thing was because I was with the Phil. Math Olympiad (National) and the Super Science Quiz Bee (Regional). They weren’t the Mercury Drug Awards because my grades weren’t that high for those subjects, pang runner-up lang. :D

3rd honorable mention ;) I graduated with no honors whatsoever but I got two medals from The Ilonggo, three medals for IT, and one from the science club. You got medals from science, math, and journalism — ikaw siguro yung pinaglalaban sa mga contest na ganyan noon no? :D

I was 3rd honorable then with awards from science, math and journalism. I think I had 5 medals lang. Kakahiya nga halos buong pamilya from my mom and dad’s side gusto pumunta pero limited seats lang eh…
