after a decade

a few days ago, i ran into a fellow manresan and half-baked assumptionist, trinna alcantara. after a brief exchange of formalities, she excitedly relayed the news that indeed, it has already been 10 years since we left the school-run-by-brown-nuns manresa... this train of thought inevitably led to the revelation that yes, apparently, someone has hatched a plan and organized a 1998 batch reunion.

*twilight... zone mode* i suddenly remember vividly hearing over the speakers at auditorium: "congratulations to the 101... graduates." i was almost sure i would hear dalmatians. :) anyway, i don't suppose that the person/group organizing the 'reunion' is expecting a big number of people to turn up though: what with the venue of choice. tavern asia has just been up and running for just a little over a month at the most... it's located within the confines of bf and from what i know, is also run by manresa graduates, particularly, batchmates of my younger sister. and the food? ho-humm from what i heard. *sigh* or maybe that's just me being fickle minded and picky... i guess it's nicer to book a small place with a sudden unexpected turn out than to book a grand one with only crickets in attendance.

as much as i want to go and rekindle old flames, reminisce about the good ol' days and hope to see that people do grow up, i can't help but be tied down to *ladida: insert stupid excuse here* aargh! pity... how many 10 year HS reunions will one get to have in a lifetime anyway? *sigh*

let's see how everything turns out on the 29th... i hope i get to hear good reviews... juicy chismis to make up
*blurbidoo: insert stupid excuse here again* that ties me down, at least. but if i find out that **** is going to be there, that WOULD be enough reason to have me scuttle my butt quickly to the venue! :D
