Berchmans Christmas 2008 Reunion

I’ve got a few too many school years under my belt, but none mattered more than the four years coming-of-age high school.

First loves, first broken hearts, first passions. Those really were some of the best years of my life. I learned about life, I found myself, and thanked my lucky stars I wasn’t alone in the growing up.

I am no longer that close with my friends in high school. But it’s nice to see the whole class come together again, from time to time, even when really we no longer have anything in common but memories.

The reunion gets smaller and smaller every passing year. So many people are leaving town for a better future abroad. And really, who am I to judge? Someday I will probably leave as well.

Here’s the all of us who went to the reunion. From left to right: Husain, Jet (Janine’s boyfriend), Janine, Aeneas, Brian, Gim (my boyfriend), Shane (Brian’s boyfriend), Jotie and Raquel. Katrina took the picture.

Note: Pictures were taken (by everybody) with Jotie’s newest toy, a Nikon DSLR. I postprocessed them in Photoshop. Thanks, Jots!
