Lorena Maraan Bello

I was really ecstatic when I got this  msg from Lorena. I can't help calling her that. Because today she is more popularly known I guess as Lorr. We were together in  our freshman year. And yes we formed a group called consonants. That she reminded me in this msg. I just now  can't recall  kung sino sino kami. 

 "Hi, Malou! How are you? This is Lorena M., we were classmates in 1st year HS. Remember the CONSONANTS? Been trying to find classmates/friends. Wonder how they are doing. Thanks to FB! Hope to hear from you. Regards".


I recall Lorena to be super neat. Always prepared, uniforms well pressed, parang di nagugusot hehehe
What I also remember vividly are our visits to her home. Madalas.  She lives near the school, you see. And yes she was so very hospitable :-)

 Another  FB msg coming from her:

"Oh... so you still remember me!! Nakita ko rin sina Susan, Jane, Divin & Vicky in FB. Also your pix !! Para akong bata... talking to myself when I saw my long lost friends/classmates & batchmates. Dito ako sa California. Every 1-2 yrs. umuuwi ako dyan to visit my brothers and sisters. It's really nice of you to get back to me. See what FB can do??? Nagbababad lagi looking for former classmates/schoolmates! Chat tayo when you get a chance".

Yes, Lorr, I would love to chat with you and sana as I mentioned in my messages, makarating ka  sa Jan or Feb 2012 batch'70 reunion. YESSS.. dumadami na tayo.

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 .

Vangie, as I knew her became a nurse and served in the AFP Nurse Corps for awhile. Today, she heads her own manpower service company and travels from time to time between the Philippines and the Middle East. We had the chance to talk in November, last year. I was trying to invite her to attend one of our batch meetings. I also extended the invitation to our grand alumni homecoming in Dec 4, 2010. I am sure she wanted to but unfortunately, previous commitments prevented her from going. As there will be many more batch meet-up opportunities, we shall be looking forward to meeting you again, batchmate, Mona.
