Ninong Eric and Junie. Ninong Kit also made it to the baptism (he actually looked more "priestly" than the priest). Ninong Jet took this pic. Ninong Jason got caught in some traffic and didnt make it to the baptism. humabol na lang siya sa reception















medyo malamig yata tubig, nagreklamo si Gerald :-)
















Ate and Kuya

OLPS GULP San Miguel Beer Plaza at the Rompeolas (Pier) in Sorsogon City on June 24, 2005. Bumaha ng Beer, humakot ng pagkadami-daming pera ang OLPS Alumni Foundation, Incorporated [OLPSAFI]. Kudos to the Beer Plaza Committee chaired by SORECO General Manager Joey Cubias (Batch 80). Hey, Mr. OLPSAFI President, Atty. Alwyn Talde (Batch 83), wara na contribution sa homecoming ha!

The Sacraments Band, one of two bands featured in the Beer Plaza. Their covers of popular rock songs are as good as the original versions, if not better. 

The Lagamayo kids, from left: Gillian (6), Gerald (will be baptized on the 3rd), and Gio (3).

Happy Birthday, pards. Even if you're a year younger than most of us, a lot of people now address you with "Tio" before your name. [This is Eric's best shot from my collection. But this is so "UN-ERIC". It's tough to bring oneself to believe that Eric after all these years still takes communion. Eric in the State of Grace? What is the world coming to? Bwahahahahahaha!]

Happy Bday Eric!

diin an karaon ta?

btw, natuloy ka ba sa nursing school? anyways good luck and have fun!

fiesta sa gubat

collins and i arrived at junie's place around 8 pm. msgr. pax, fr. gerry, dante, dave and henri greeted us with their eyes and mouths ready to jump the gun as they studied the bountiful table. nakaparilibut na sa lamesa. fiestahununon!! i didn't remember us praying before eating!! hehehe. and would you believe it! henri cooked one of the viands ( pangfiesta an culinary talent ni baka ). ang walang kamatayang adobadong kulambutan. masiramununon. the trouble was, he cooked it so hot unaware that junie's father hate spicy foods. hehehe. naalo si henri when he learned about it.

after the delectable dinner, we all huddled around junie's computer and feasted on our blog home, making fun of the old pictures. we also marvelled over linuz' pictures. someone suggested to msgr. mons and fr. gerry that they put up a blog site for each of their batch too. they dismissed the idea with all of us laughing. imagine a site raining with black and white pictures!! hehehe!! may colored pix naman kuno san panahon ninda according to fr. gerry. i doubt it. hahahaha. later in the night mgsr. mons and fr. gerry had to go. the rest of us stayed and zealously attacked the table again to our tummies content( thanks a lot junie and to your family).

after a short chat with jet on line, we drove to rizal beach and parked ourselves on the shore. There again we shared undying seminary anecdotes and also horror stories over some shots of brandy and champagne. we left the place around 3am heavy once more with rekindled brotherhood and memories. and i can't help but look forward to july 3, gabby's son's baptism.

June 12, 2005. Eve of the Feast of our Patron Saint, Anthony of Padua. Around 8 pm, we gathered around the table. Nagpatuklingan si Mons (partly hidden from view by my mother's head) and Fr. Gerry on who'd say the "Grace before Meals." Guess who won out. By the way, Fr. Gerry just got back from a five-day vacation in Cebu where he stayed at Tyrone's mansion. According to him, Tyrone regularly visits the blogspot site.

After eating, we milled around the computer for the obligatory tour of our blogspot home. With Fr. Gerry around to make the comments, the tour proved to be a riot.
 

Around 11 pm, two hours after Mons and Fr. Gerry had left, we proceeded to Rizal Beach for the marathon 'bonding' session. We started with the usual reunion fare-seminary recollections. But as the night deepened, the stories took a different turn-towards the supernatural beings-with each one sharing his personal brush with a white lady, an 'asuwang', or a 'patianak.' We headed home around 2:30 am.

Fr. Roy Eco 

Jason was way ahead of our time. Even in the 80's, aram na nya an "ocho-ocho."

Dogbag

Fr. Vicboy Dollentas, a witness to the felony of requesting dogbags, threatened, "Iba-blog ko kamo. Iba-blog ko kamo"

Dogbag gihapon?

A member of the Caterer's staff recognized us as the same group that requested for dogbags at Fr. Gerry's silver ordination anniversary two months earlier. Sabi ni Fr. Gerry, " Next time, magdara na kamo Tupperware."

Nono expounding on "how to make marriage work"

At the churchyard before leaving for San Benon. Nono Dorotan [married to Dr. Aurora Luzuriaga, a sister of Deedee] giving a lecture on Marriage and How To Make It Work. Wonder what's on the mind of Dante

at a cottage in San Benon. The theology teacher at the University of St. Augustine in Iloilo City upstaged Eric and Henri all night long.
