Philippines

19 May 2005  Metropolis Star, Las Piñas City  Nina Saldaña organized a get-together of fellow batch mates from UPIS living in Muntinlupa City and Las Piñas City. After four hours and four cups of tea, the four of us still could not figure out which kindergarten class we belonged to at the Child Development Center.

Highlights

• Realizing that, while looks have changed over twenty years, dispositions have not: Nina is still soft-spoken, Doy still carries the boyish, ever-ready smile, and Boni is as cool and nonchalant as ever
• Discovering a potential ambassador amongst our batch mates
• Learning that Boni is married to the same lady he dated while students in the College of Architecture, also at the University of the Philippines
• Being moved by Nina's tremendous optimism about the challenges of living and working in the Philippines
