Silliman University High School Class 1975

Thanks to Rochelle for teaching me how to log on to her computer and for leaving me alone in the apartment today. Yesterday I was off but I was very tired from ICU abuse... 3 isolation patients meaning gowning/gloving all the time, making me a hot, hot mama; not to mention my pre-menopausal hot flashes. I was so dead tired when I reached home. In the evening, after my long slumber, I woke up in the mood for telebabad. Monchilou was far out of contact so I tried Blossom. Yes, she had all the time chattering with me until her in-law came. So we stopped. Watched TV and later there went the phone ringing again. Oh, it was Blossom so we continued our chitchat, laughter and giggles....just like when we were in our high school days...lots of recollection...past, present and future tenses...until almost midnight and time to say, "Bye! Good night!" ha...ha...ha...

Today I am still off and in my solitude. No, I don't mean to spend my solitude in our apartment. I went out to be part of the city chaos but still maintaining my solitude deep inside me for I walked alone in my deep thoughts, playing my mind and enjoyed watching the people at the same time. Ate in my favorite restaurant and went walking until I reached the Colony Music Store. Picked up few pieces I thought of practicing in the piano and went home...Hmm, Rochelle's computer is free... So here goes my self-deprived from computer. Let me take this chance before the owner comes home....

My 6 week summer is almost over. But I cannot complain. Not bad at all. Last week of June was trip to Florida and had Rochelle's graduation party with Lennie/Mauro Ausejo and other friends. On July 4 we were visited by Lynnie Carloto-Borinaga's eldest daughter whom we used to babysit before, Ellyn Rose 19 years old. Also on July 4, I brought Tim at Benchie Diago-Bacalan's place so he had fun on his day off. I had a great time, too, even if I had to work that evening and later was so sad I had to stop my chitchat with Marlyn for we had to leave early so I won't be late. Thanks for the invitation, Benchie, for we had the chance to socialize with Ana Trueno, Grace Tubo-Riso, Jojo Sabolboro, and Marlyn Sienes-De Gui and many other old familiar faces and made new friends.

Then July 17th was a get together with my high school dorm mates and their families - with Glynda Pil-Calpo, Josette Escarda, Beng Ansaldo-Sola (Macoy's older sister); hosted by Joy Hamoy-Livara. And still looking forward to few more fun time before school commences. Hope you are all available for the Aug. 23 annual picnic in Duckpond, New Jersey and Aug 24 church service... Let's end the summer with mini reunion with our friends, classmates, dorm mates and their families and celebrate the Silliman founder's day with joy and Christian spirit,... See you all then!
