This year, Batch 1998 was the sponsor last night at the homecoming (my mom said homecomings are held after 10 years of a particular batch). Anyway, the homecoming is open to all batches so it was also a way to meet up old friends.
I met up with my BFF Mikki at VBH while waiting for her buds LokoPo. From VBH, we met up her buds at the Engineering Bldg (sorry, I don't know what's its name. ^^;;).
Once at the venue, we registered. We got an alumni mag, La Salle-printed necklace and our stubs for raffle and FOOD! I was a bit surprised and so does Alain and the others, as there was only one box for resume dropping.
Moving on, we went inside ULS and found there were blinking lights already, a dance floor, a stage and other guests at their seats. My BFF was a hot item that night as there were people coming up to her and commended her suggestion last year that professors should be around too at the homecoming. Because of that, I found one of my favorite professors there last night.
They gave an Outstanding Award to Marian Rivera, my sempai. But she was not around at that time. Other awardees include the current mayor of Dasma, Cavite and the congressman of Batangas, 4th district. All of them made DLSU-D proud. The Outstanding Award is the highest award an alumni can receive. gee, I want to receive that too soon.
Anyway, it was a breathe of new air as batches from 2004 and up were more visible this year. Mikki commented that this year's homecoming has a lot of attendees compared to the previous ones.
Food was great. ^_^ And thank goodness, there's COKE ZERO. I have to admit I'm addicted to it.
We stayed for an hour or so since there was a raffle. Well, most of us were in vain as our group didn't win any prize.
Once outside at ULS, my BFF and I parted ways. Alain, Levy and I stayed at ULS for a photoshoot love. Can you blame us?! The night and the dim lights were perfect.
From ULS, we walked towards gate 1. Yeah, it was so dark aside from the lighted pathway. Three of us were walking and got to talk about life, death, occult and the supernatural. Alain played some Bleach songs too which got us more in the mood. hehe...
Once we reached the east campus, we saw the fountain at the church as active. Again, another photoshoot. There's a kerropi / frog i mean, at the fountain. Good thing it didn't jumped on us or else it would definitely cause ruckus. XD
After the photoshoot, we chilled at the church side and got to talk a lot of topics. I got to know more about Alain and Levy than the usual things they post on their blogs.
It was a breather, those two made me feel that I'm still young. I found myself being talkative again. yipee~ Most of the time, I wanted to grow up so fast and do a lot of things. I'm in my early 20s but the burn-out feeling can make one feel as if it's 70 already!
We learned that the people we meet in school will eventually have a counterpart once we started working or in whatever field that we are in.
We savor the chilly air when we heard the bell rang. Then got up and started walking to our destination- home.
