April of 2004 when we exit the gate of our dear Alma matter, our dearest Mallig National High School. We weren’t empty handed going out because we all carried what this institution has instilled to us, more than the lessons our precious mentors taught us, it was the best experience mingling with different type of individuals and the different trips our batch mates has pooled with. It was very nice going back reminiscing what we had and what we’ve been 10 years after.
The Preparation…
It was March this year when we started planning… of course, that composed of the attendees, the share, the venue, give aways and the Project. One thing that amazed me was the fact that everyone was ONE with the giving back to our school. Super surreal that we all are willing to share what we have to give back and to create relief to the next and future students of MNHS. Nandiyan kang magtatalo kayo sa dami ng ihahandang pagkain, sa lay out ng damit, sa kung T-Shirt ba o POLO shirt… sa kung magkano ang babayaran, but we all end up dwelling with same and better response. We also had the time when we all, would like to give up and wag na lang ituloy because no one is very much available to do the chores, for the invites, and for the collection of shares, pero natuloy parin. Little by little in our smallest way, we managed to keep whats needed for the said Ganap. What I am very proud of was the creative side of us (me and my twin) for putting up the best stuffs for our class photo booth.
The Welcome Message
Hi! narinig ko kanina may mga gusto tayong makita pero wala sila dito, siguro naman ginusto nilang pumunta pero di talaga kinaya. Thank you kasi sobrang ganda ng response niyo sa aming magkapatid para buoin natin to kahit iilang had slang tayo. Gusto ko lang ipaalala sa inyo 10 year ago hirap na hirap tayo sa araling panlipunan, sa mathematics, sa physics, keri keri lang yung English… pero narealize niyo ba na after High School hindi pala yun yung mahalaga, hindi pala yun ang mag ma-matter after 10 years kasi out of the school kailangan mong pag aralan ang mga bagay na di naituro ng school which is diskarte sa buhay, papano papahalagaan pa yung wala sa school. Gusto ko sana e-reiterate na since meron tayong teachers and principal, hopefully maituro sa mga future students kung papaano yung mag give back, parang kagaya samin na hindi lang after 10 years, sana nga after 5 years nung marami rami pa kami dito sa pilipinas, dito sa mallig nagawa na namin, pero hopefully after how many years pa mas malaki yung maibigay namin sa school. 10 year ago ang pinag uusapan ng studyante ay sinong boyfriend mo, sinong first heartbreak mo pero ngayon ang pinag uusapan na… sino ang legal wife, sino na ang Yvonne at Janine sa buhay ng lalakeng ka klase namin at tsaka, narealize ko lang na sa 10 years na yun, di pala mahalaga kung sino yung unang boyfriend mo, ang mahala ay yung huli.
Thank you so much sa magandang response at expect natin na may mga late kasi di naman niexpect na may pagpapakasal ngayong araw, Jomar Cayaban is getting married, si Divina nagpapabinyag, meron naman namatay pala yung father sana nakapunta man lang tayo. Sana di lang after 10 years ulit tayo makapag give back sa school, sana after a year o after 3 years pag meron ng mga mas successful makapag bigay tayo ng di na tayo hihingi ng tulong sa iba kundi tayo na yung magbibigay ng mas malaki. Welcome and enjoy the party.
Please be with us, as we muse over and go back to the day when fate and faith took and gave us the chance to be more than school mates… more than the words we all call FRIENDS…
