RMCHS Batch '70

Vic is from Butuan City. Married. He loves sports, watching action movies and a Beatles fan. That's just about all I can cull from his fb profile. Oh and yes, he celebrates his birthdays on June 28. Welcome Vic. Remains youngish With a loved one

Emma was a classmate in intermediate grade school. Along with other rmchs batchmates like Ada Tolentino Bernal , Sam Movido , and Cresencia 'Cris' Cachero . An fb friend and another grade school classmate Marilyn led me to her. Emma will always remind me of genteel ways;  soft spoken,  sweet smile, with only kind words about others. Like it was just yesterday With family Welcome to the batch Emma! Are you in the Philippines? Los Banos, if I recollect right? Or are you abroad?

Tall, svelte and lovely. That is my classmate Ada. Today,  I call her Ads. I didn't realize  up until a few days ago that  Ada did not have her own post in this blog.. whew! How could I have missed that?  Terribly sorry for that Ads. But.. In the beginning when we were in grade 4,  I was a student transferee. That was 1964. Ada  became a classmate and became a friend. How could I forget her? She lives near our school and we used to drop by her place for quick snacks. By we, I mean Cresencia 'Cris' Cachero and Emma Gironella ,  I believe.  Ada and Cris  lived a step away from our  school; (9th Avenue);  so during breaks and after school ,  we were either at  Cresencia's house, or Ada's place doing our youthful chit chats. Sometimes our feet also took us to a not so far away  house (8th Avenue), at Emma's. Those were the days - -  girlhood wonders.   And so we all went through the same transitions, ...

Abe Espiritu asked me yesterday if Ines Magdalita is already my fb friend and I said not yet. Automatically,  I searched for her name and requested an add. Presto, she graciously added me to her list. Ines is based in Belgium as far as I can glean from her fb profile. I also saw pictures of her travels and I grabbed one for this post. Welcome Ines. Please tell us more about yourself; anything 'publicly' shareable on the internet. Ines in London

Susan is based in the Philippines. She enjoys her life with regular fellowships with Ada, Lorie , Ver , Cristy and the rest of this merry group. Remains pretty In loving pose with Hubby

Batchmate Liza is based in the Philippines and currently handles a managerial position in one of the "Big 3" universities in Metro Manila. With batchmates Linda and Aida Taken during the Grand Alumni Homecoming last December 4, 2010. And BTW Liza, would it be too much to ask your presence in our future batch meetings?

Rosefe is a nurse and has been based in the United States for quite awhile.

Alice is now a widow. She worked with a Makati based management consulting company.  Her fb profile further indicates interest  in supporting the  candidacy of celebrity figures like  Kata Inocencio formerly of ABS-CBN Public Affairs.

Our batchmate Tess (I hope that is her nickname, ) is currently a teacher in California, where she has been based for a long time now with her family. She obtained her graduate studies degree also from California university. Tess and husband? :-)

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.
