STORY TELLING TIME
Hello Classmates!
Inspired by the search for missing friends, I thought it would be nice to have a spot in cyberspace where we can reweave all our stories.
Some of us go way back to Herran or San Lorenzo. Some of us made the pilgrimage to Antipolo while some of us went elsewhere for a few years. Then we all met again in San Lorenzo, joined by many other new friends. Here we are now many years later, reunited by the internet!
I invite one and all to send in their stories: funny ones, happy ones, remember-when ones. As the kuwentos get posted, I am sure you will remember more and more and all our stories will come out again. There is a Native American belief, that if you keep telling the stories, the stories will never die.
But hey, if you promised your friend, way back when, "Peksman, cross my heart", "this goes to the grave", that you would NEVER tell, then please, NEVER tell! Karma, karma! And we don't want to know that you were actually seeing so and so's boyfriend while she was busy inventing the names of the childen she would bear for him!
Oh, and this is a BLOG which means the ENTIRE UNIVERSE might see it, including your crush in 2nd year high school who is now as gay as a bouquet! This is not private like our yahoo groups, where only we girls can see it. So be careful what you write, don't use full or real names in your stories, if necessary, in order to protect the GUILTY as well as the INNOCENT!
The way this is set up is ANYONE can comment, but if you want to post a story, I need to add you in. So email me, if you have lots to share. Go take that ginko biloba pill, or whatever memory booster you take, and start remembering!
If you find that someone's memory of something is hazy or not quite right, or seems like this chick actually "inhaled" something at some point, then by all means, send in a COMMENT and correct it, but please BE KIND! I am sure that many of us by now have undergone at least some anaesthesia, among other hallucinogenic substances, that some of the memories are... well, GONE! So before we lose any more brain cells...
It is time to remember, it is time to share the "good" stories with our familes and each other, and not to forget.
So send in your memories, here is a nice place to preserve them.
Your classmate,
Monica Francisco

Great idea, Monica! But you'll have to rely on others to provide juicy kuwentos, as my grade and high school life was pretty mundane. Besides which, my memory is very bad. I'll have to see what I can come up with.
You know, girls, this might be a good time to post whatever we can remember and preserve the memories before we all go senile!
For those who want to post or comment - it might be a good idea to identify yourselves by more than your first name (unless of course you want to be anonymous). I don't know half of you all outside of Section 1.
Maybe I remember because I never "inhaled"? Hahahaha. But don't feel so bad, my daughters will tell you I always forget to buy their favorite baon also. And the number of gym padlocks in my house for which I cannot remember the combination to attest to my failing short term memory. Bonca, you will figure in my Grade 7 memory when you broke your leg (ankle?) from biking in China.
I would like to suggest also that people who sign it fill in their profile - it would be rather fun to find out each other's tastes and interests.
Thanks for the sharing. Sister Araceli Suzara finished her PhD and is now a directress at the Filipino Center at Old Dominion University in VA.
