We will be having a highschool reunion on Dec 10. For a self-confessed workaholic who was tied to his work for years and haven't seen some classmates for a long time, I'm kinda excited.
Last Monday, Than-than told me that some of our classmates thought that reunion is a venue for payabangan. I beg to disagree! I am quite disappointed with this comment. After a couple of years not seeing people that they spend years of their life, aren't they curious where are they now or what are they doing? Who among our classmates got married and have kids and who are still single?
I believe that it should be more of kamustahan and rekindling old friendship. Rather than bragging of accomplishments, why not reminisce good old highschool memories. We can talk about things such as:
- how we sucessfully staged Florante at Laura, Noli Me Tangere and El Filibusterismo
- how some got suspended giving support to Josephine and Arnel in an interschool oratorical contest (this has lots of juicy stuffs in it)
- how funny stuffs happened in the during classes.
As they say, it's all in the mindset.
