Freshies Sophies Juniors Seniors


Reminisce
by Tatiana Villaflor-O'Quinn
 

Note: Hi all, it's been nine years since we found each other on the Internet, and alot of reunions and updates on each other have been done. From reunions in California, Las Vegas, and Manila.
 
As we update our web site, we'd like you to know that our fellow batchmates are welcome to add articles here. For more information, send e-mail to moquinn8@yahoo.com. In the meantime, read on below and enjoy, or select from any of the best years of high school from the buttons at the right side of your page!!!
Smilebar Hold on to your seats as we back down memory lane as the late Minnie Riperton would sing...I was asked by Lilybell Mendoza to write an article for this web site of ours, I couldn't say no...done in a shallow way but with deep memories...

Probably because I may have never forgotten the best days of my life which was high school... all you have to do is close your eyes...oops...nah..then you can't read this...just the power of your imaginations and memories are needed...this is just a start...and everyone is welcome to share their food...oops...write articles...give pictures... and share your good times in a life we had called high school..sige..let's go...
