The Mini High School Reunion


After the wedding I attended (see previous post), I went straight to our mini-high school reunion back in Iloilo. It was a yearly gathering every December and this was our (Kaye and I) to attend. It was held in Red Paprika, Boardwalk in Smallville, Diversion Road, Iloilo City.

This was a funny experience because we still haven't been to the place and the driver of the taxi we took also didn't know the place, we even passed over the place. The driver had to stop and move to a reverse to get the entrance road. Finally, we got to the venue and there they were, our High School Classmates! About ten or more classmates arrived ahead of us but it was okay as the fun hasn't started yet.

During reunions, if you don't want to get teased a lot when you arrive, you need to arrive early. If you want the spotlight, come in late, very late and the latest would be when everyone is saying their goodbyes. Why the heck would you even dare to come that late?

The reunion was a happy and what our male classmates can't help but do - full of teasing and jokes. The reactions from the one being teased about and joked about is far different from when we were back in High School. Back in the days, my classmates would be chasing the one teasing them or punching them in the arm for making fun of them in front of others. But that day, it was all full of laughter and humility as everybody just road along with the jokes.

Dinner was quick as most of the guys were already drinking. The highlight of the the reunion was the game called Pinoy Henyo. A very fun and exciting game unfortunately not everybody knew how to play it so a lot of bloopers there. Anyway, it was still fun at the end as the comments and questions asked to correctly guess the chosen word were hilarious and with other meaning.

The reunion ended with picture taking of course and a lot of hugs and goodbyes. No tears were shed but a lot of laughter erupted from missing each other. I will always remember all my classmates one by one as my high school life was the main sculptor the molded me in the way that I am today. God bless West Visayas State Univeristy Integrated Laboratory School - Secondary Batch 2004!
