"five hundred twenty five thousand six hundred minutes. five hundred twenty five thousand moments so dear...how do you measure a year in the life?.....what about love? measure in love! "

my college bestfriend, dormmate, roommate, seatmate Ging got married last nov.12. it was a beautiful wedding for this perfect couple. the church: Calaruega, the reception: Ville Sommet.

the occassion also became (sort of) a reunion of our barkada...because our friend amor, who we haven't seen for more than a year, came with her husband & 2 kids. no cat fights occured, no cold shoulders! everyone was cool & calm! hehe! FFL talaga!





1) with ging before the wedding 2&3) the very sweet husband & wife 4) with benjie,tina,jb & steph 5) mark,bong,benjie,shalom, arvin & amor (halleluia!) 6) class picture => 7) the chocolate fondue! 8) agawan sa chocolate! hehe!

...i returned to canossa sta.rosa! not just once, but twice!

1st went there last july 20 to have my diploma certified. the school changed a lot! a total make over! what was then the spacious,maalikabok,lubak-lubak parking lot, was now the elementary primary building. and there was this garden which they call the "Peace Garden" in front of the bulding. parang tourist spot.=)

i went straight to the registrar hoping to finish quickly coz i need to go to ust after. but my plan of staying there for just a couple of minutes turned out to be an 1hr & a half tour of canossa! the registrar, ms.lijauco, recognized me at once to my surprise, exclaimed my full name as in ms.charulyn zambrano! people beside her office heard her & came over...mrs. adato, ms.alinea (mrs.autor na pla) & ms myrna perez (ms.perez liit). next thing i know, ngkwekwentuhan na kami! then ms.lijauco called ms.cardino (still the guidance counselor) to tell her i was there...so i went up to ms.cardino's office. kwentuhan kmi, mga updates sa batchmates...meaning mga tsismis!=) then afterwards, we started the tour...i couldn't find an excuse to escape! hehe!

here's a rundown: mrs.barroso (now highschool principal) = 20mins (with hugs & besobeso,hehe!), computer rm = 10mins (ms.cardino introduced me to the computer teacher who happens to know my parents as they were members of BCBP), library = 10mins (talked to ms.dayo!), mrs.buenafe (clinic) = 10mins (kulit pa rn!). mrs.maniago (asst.principal) = 15mins...& to other teachers inside the faculty = just a quickie =)...end of tour!

2nd visit, july 27: i took my certified true copy of my diploma from ms.lijauco. and there inside her office was mr. del valle...mr.backslash himself!=D and this time, i brought our digicam with me! hehe!

enjoy!
