Batchmates, re-introducing Virgie Guevara Acelar

Hi Everyone,

Here's another lovely addition to Batch 1970. I recently re-connected with Virgie Guevara-Acelar through Vicky Morelos. Vicky found her on facebook. What I can remember about Virgie is that she was gorgeously attractive, slim with  swaying sexy hips and I think was the envy of the shy girls like me.. True, she wore her uniform short. And I was thinking at that time, e maganda naman kasi legs.. Right Gie? hehehe

After requesting her to provide a snippet about life lived, something shareable online, she sweetly accommodated with the following and I am reposting it here:

Hi Malou,

Attached are pictures taken during high school year.

About me – I migrated to San Francisco , CA in 1974.  I have 2 boys.

Steve is 30 years old. He went to University of California , Los Angeles (UCLA) and majored in Computer Science. He decided to stay in LA after graduation.He works for Galorath, a software company as Lead System Engineer.

Chris is 26 years old. He went to UCLA also and majored in Business Economics. He decided to come back to the Bay area after graduation.  He works for Pricewaterhousecoopers (PWC), an accounting firm as Sr. Tax Accountant. He lives in San Jose about 30-45 minutes away from our place. Even he is so close to us we hardly see him due to his busy schedule.

Both of my boys are not married yet, enjoying their careers.

I worked  for Pacific Gas & Electric Company as a Logistical Planner.  I decided to retire this year after 30 years with the company. Just like what you said, life is too short. My husband Fred and I do medical mission in the Philippines every other year. We started doing this in 2005.

Philippine Medical Society of Northern California has been doing this mission every year for about 30 years now. It’s a complete service which includes medical, surgical, dental, optometry, etc.

The mission is for 1 week only and it helped around 10,000 indigents.  We handle the statistics.

The family also loves to travel. With our  busy schedules,  this is the best way to bond and catch up with each other.


Regards,

Gie

Back then, we all knew that Reuel will play a significant role in this contemporary times. Not only because he is intelligent and articulate but a friend to the masses as well. Mulat ika nga. It is not surprising therefore to find out that he not only has one Palanca Award but has been a consistent winner. In fact, Reuel is a Carlos Palanca Memorial Awards Hall of Famer. Sobrang husay! Ipinagmamalaki kong sabihin na classmate ko sya. Magaling sumulat kahit noon pa, at mahusay sa lahat yata ng subjects all through out our high school years. Dati pa namin sya IDOL at di na marahil mababago ang paghanga namin sa kanya. Ang galing-galing mo, kamag-aral :-) Thanks to the Palanca website for this snippet. Please visit their site here .

Rolando Mendoza

Rollie and Family I think, Rolando 'Rollie' Mendoza was introduced to me by Veron de Guzman. I had quite a chat with him recently. That is quite a name, I mentioned. To be a namesake to an "infamous" man. And he says, yes, he's been teased about that for awhile. Rollie and family resides in the United States. I could guess that life's been good to him as well there; practically like all the rest of our Filipino compatriots who chose to try their luck, worked hard and succeeded. By the way, I spoke to him about our Jan or Dec 2012 Batch Reunion and Rollie  is pretty hopeful that he and wife might just join us.
