School Yearbook and the Graduate

Bakit nga ba wala man lang tayong school yearbook in grade school and even in high school? It would have been nice kung meron tayo... kaya lang I don't recall any of the graduates during our time having one. Hindi yata part of the school program ang magkaroon nang yearbook. Is it because hindi uso noon, or the school just don't have the resources to make one?

My daughter's school just asked me if I wanted to be a sponsor once again on their yearbook which I happily obliged. Angela has always been in the straight "A" honor roll since pre-k, kaya naman kahit medyo mahal ang bayad, I don't mind making the extra payment to become one, every year. It's actually very smart way for the school to offer parents a space in the yearbook for business ads and customized personal greetings for their kids. They make a lot of money doing that to support the yearbook program and every other program the school might have for their students. The pic below is what I've come up for this year to fill half the page. It did cost me an arm and a leg but who cares, we're talking about my one & only here! :-)

I wonder kung ang alma mater natin ay mayroon nang program to include yearbook para sa lahat. Sayang naman kung ang mga graduates na katulad nang anak ni Eva ay walang yearbook na matitignan pagdating nag araw. Ysabelle just graduated from grade school this year.

Congrats to all the new graduates!

Oo nga bat nga ba wala tayong yearbook. Mahal kasi kaya ganun siguro eh poor lang ang peyrents ko, hehe. But it's not too late pa naman, we can still create one di ba? Kaya magpadala na kayo ng mga pics nyo kay Edgar kung gusto nyong magkaroon tayo ng yearbook, nga lang ang title ng yearbook natin ay - Class of 1974/1978 Fast Forward to 2007 (hehe). Wat do you think, oks ba to? Extra budget nga lang but it's all worth it.
Ang daughter ko din mag graduate na sa June from her middle school kaya I need to do something din sa yearbook nila. Tumatanda na talaga tayo, hehe, parang kelan lang nasa Kindergarten pa sya, now mag high school na sa September ang beybi ko. On the positive side, sandali na lang ang puede na kong magretire sa Pulilan, haha!

expensive nga kasi ang yearbook! yang sa anak ko something like $50. e nung araw wala pa tayong ganun. baon nga nga namin pambili lang ng caramel o texas bublegum. tapos 4 times nilalagad ang school-- morning-2x sa tanghali- at uwian. ngayon dito lang school nya sa pwet ng paltao kailangan pa ang service. mainit daw kasi. anyway, we sure want to give the best of everything to our little angels! kahit di na sila little at growing bigger and taller pa sa atin!

Congrats to Angela and Ysabelle!
Ogie, sabi na nanay apo ka raw ba ng Leon? Excited siya when she hears about relatives from Pulilan. What are the name of your parents and grandparents?

Egay, I heard that Grand Canyon is breathtaking. We are planning to drive there in July. Is it close to Las Vegas? Classmates in the U.S. baka gusto ninyong magmeet sa Vegas sa summer we are thinking of staying @ Circus circus for a few days then Arizona and San Diego. We have relatives in San Diego to visit. Sana magkita tayo kasi I am not sure if I can make it sa reunion.

grand canyon is really breathtaking! i would love to visit again someday. iba talaga pag andun ka, maupo ka lang sa isang tabi at titigan sya, it's so unbelievable feeling.

sige digna, kita tayo sa las vegas. reunion tayo dun! sabihin mo lang kung kailan.

suggestion for your trip: take the helicopter tour from vegas to grand canyon. grand canyon is i think 4 hrs drive from vegas.
