I will remember 2006 as the year for reunions and getting re-acquainted with old friends.
January- Jaja and I grew older by one year!
February- We had a successful convention for Managers (at the Philippine Plaza) & Franchisees (at Boracay Regency) in spite of the difficulties in preparations. The highlight of the month though was the much awaited R&R which we held on Feb 17-19 at the Redemptorist Novitiate in Lipa. We had 53 reunionists attending this once in a blue moon affair.Frs. Ahearn,Murray and Mr. Bautista joined the event.
I also had a reunion with "old friends" from Fatima parish in June.
Tasha and James graduated this year. Tash graduated from St.Paul,elementary and James from Lourdes High school. James passed entrance exams at College of St. Benilde (HRM) and seems to be enjoying his College life.
Auntie Bebeng finally passed away after a long bout with cancer. Angie Padilla's dad, Al, died of a heart attack several weeks after he joined our Fatima reunion. Mike Meily, a classmate from San Beda, lost his eldest son. Jerome broke up with Iris.
TJ was able to experience working with a company during his practicum with Accenture.
Evie, Lyra and Isah migrated to Canada and are starting new lives over at the land of the Canucks.
Jaja had trips to India and Australia. We were able to go to Dos Palmas, Palawan although not under ideal conditions because it was raining hard. We enjoyed the trip nevertheless. I was able to go to Pearl Farm and experience a helicopter ride courtesy of Mayor Duterte's private chopper.
I was able to visit Tacloban and Ormoc during the Grand Opening of our store there.
Auntie Luming and Uncle Tony vacationed once again here when they came over to check on how Auntie Bebeng was doing.
Typhoons Milenyo and Reming devastated the country. TJV went under water when Milenyo hit.
I got hooked on Friendster and YouTube. I also developed my skills in video editing, in a way I fulfilled a dream when I was akid of doing my own video productions.
