The Pabidas Meet

It's been a long time since my college friends and I meet up. The Pabidas of of the UST AB CommArts 1996.

When I received an SMS from Carlo Reyes (aka Carlo Baba) about the meet on December 12, I didn't hesitate to confirm my attendance.

Wednesday night at Krokodile Grill in Shangri-La Plaza, I arrived one hour later than the agreed time. And yet, I was still the first to get to the meeting place.
Barbi and Carlo was just around the mall. Then came Pape and sooner Jann came with her boyfriend Andrei.

Only 5 Pabidas (as we call our group -- Puro kasi pabida when we were in college) came. But our voices was like all 16 members were there ! Yeah, we're a big group. Half of the class I guess.

Here are the members in cheating er... alphabetical order:

As usual we were reminiscing our college days with all the "kalokohans" we did. That was a fun evening. And I hope we get to have another chance to meet again with complete attendance. I can see a hilarious event on that.

For Pape, a soon to be Mrs. Jannifer Canovas .... our best wishes for you and Dave. Aba, mag baby na kagad after the wedding ! Gamitin mo ang iyong skills sa Cardio Striptease!

For Barbi -- thanks for Anja's gifts. Make up kit na ba yun? Sa uulitin "Ninang" ! I hope you will enjoy your South African trip!
