tyrone, rino and tivo putting on the banners in the car 

Da bee

sikat talaga ano? jollibee joined us during the parade 

Fr. Peewee

 

miss namon an one and only priest san batch 86 

Shaider?

si shaider? hehehe, si fr. peewee just arrived from a mass in one of the barrios. mahiguson si padre talaga. 

Misa sa simbahan ni Fr. Peewee

we attended sunday mass. we wanted sana fr. peewee to say mass for us pero hindi na raw pwede kasi nakatalo ng misa siya so attend na lang kami ng misa nung isang visiting priest.

the church is still under construction so if you know anybody who can support fr. peewee in constructing the church, do let us know. 

Big Dorm

the big dorm is configured differently nowadays with the cabinets in the middle of the room. before they were on the sides. and also gone were the creaky spring metal beds replaced with maybe the beds from the annex dorm. hmm, and they have ceiling fans too.

i dunno but to me big dorm looked a bit happier during our time (1983)

da cabinet

the cabinet seemed so big back then. now they looked puny. here dante measures up.

Memory lane

we walked around after lunch and looked up the rooms. remember big dorm? and look at the tiles man.... quintessentially OLPS. lotsa memories

On TV!

here's Rino being interviewed by the local cable tv news team.

apparently the news team was either so impressed or so surprised with what rino said that all they can ask each other after the interview ended was "pwede man baya idto padi?"

last we heard, the interview was aired and the whole of sorsogon tuned in, as in all :-) 

looking good talaga ano? during the alumni program sa basketball court 

Tio Nards, da cook

we visited tio nards and presented him with our shirt, in gratitude for the many weird, awe-inspiring culinary concoctions we had to hurdle through four long years hehehehe

pero sinong chef ang makakatalo kay tio nards? na kahit ang tutong na kanin at mantika na pinagprituhan ng isda ay pinag-aagawan ng hindi mabilang na seminaristas? 

Karaon

enjoying the snacks served after the parade. anybody missed "iskaramosa!!!!!!!"

hehehe after twenty years, the refectory still smells the same 

Happy people!

with fr. pax monje. easily the coolest bunch of guys during the homecoming. nice shirts too :-P 

Arrived from Manila around 10:30 pm for the dinner hosted by Monsignor Monje at Fatima Parish. Nabaraba pa lang sa auto ni Rino. 

Saying the Grace before Meals. Look closely at Rino's face. 

Henri wouldn't touch the sumptuous meal prepared by Tia Betty. Vegetarian baga.
