EBB'S E-TALK: Parang kahapon lamang ano? Now we are the "Golden Jubilarians!" Ang bilis nang panahon! We are no longer young in look but our hearts are still young.
I lost my copy of this class photo.Gusto ko nang umiyak noon nakita ko ulit.Thanks to Sari for this class picture. She kept it like a treasure. She also told me where I was? Thanks! I was standing at the 2nd row (8th fr. the right)- at the back of Mrs. Conception. Believe na ako talaga dito kay Sari. Ang galing nang memory!
I am also happy to tell you that our blog team have grown. We are now a "Quintuplet." Cherrie, welcome to our blog team! We look forward to becoming an "Octuplet" later on. If you like to be one one the contributors, please e-mail me and I will send you an invitation to join us.
When we launched our PWU 1960 blog last week there were many interesting & thought provoking discussions among us about being a homemaker and a career woman. So, I am posting those opinions and "kuro-kuro" for all of you to read. I agree w/Cora that we should agree on the tone and mood of our blog. I read that Sari already e-mailed that this blog is not a contest on who has the most accomplishments.I am an example of one who stayed home for a decade to run my family of four.I choose my family before career and I didn't feel intimidated about it. When our kids were all in school, I resumed my graphic art career but had to start from the bottom. I caught up during my golden years and had been very busy doing oil paintings ever since.
I think the accomplishments of past classmates should be an inspiration to all of us. Our golden years should be time for looking back and enjoying each other while we could still connect. The old competitive days were over. If you like to add your opinion, please e-mail it to me and I will publish it here.
PURI'S PERSPECTIVE: With regards to the tone, what PWU taught us is USEFUL WOMANHOOD, A WELL ROUNDED PERSONALITY( not body), and COMMUNITY SERVICE. We can dwell on any of those or all of them. We can also talk about family, hobbies,travels and other interests. Like a neighborly chat across the fence. Not too much on accomplishments and stations in life. Lets bring ourselves back to 50 years ago when we were all equals, innocent and carefree.We just took a long nap of 50 years like Rip Van Winkle and here we are again.

CORA'S CHIT-CHAT: YES!!! AND - a home and family career is the most challenging of all - and I should salute all those who gave priority to their family. In my case- I had to work - so it was a tough juggling act. If only I could afford to stay at home and not work- I would have done what you did.In my kind of work - these things were expected and a matter of survival on top of passion - especially if we want to stay in U.P. it was tough as it was UP or OUT. But I realize the hours away from my family that I had to spend - and I envy you. Everything has a cost. To me- it is just a matter of doing one's best in any given situation.
SARI SPEAKS: I am imploring you to please look at the Blog that Evelyn Dirige Resella created. You will not be disappointed. At saka, join in and let us know about you. This has nothing to do with anything na pataasan nang accomplishment. Update lang natin sa isa't isa. - I can actually write about many of you (in this e-grp) because I'm nosey enough to have made it my business to keep up with you. However, it's more fun if you put in the info yourselves. Baka may mailagay pa akong "secret" about you. If you are a homemaker, please know that it is the biggest accomplishment of all. A Homemaker manages the life of husband and kids, loving & guiding them so that they may have fulfilling lives. I am not making this up; there are much research papers written on this. - This is a feat that I cannot claim.
CHERRIE'S CORNER: "I am truly overwhelmed by the blog. What a wonderful idea, a beautiful piece of art, and a great way of having us all bond, hopefully forever."
"Maraming Salamat" For All The Comments From Classmates:
"We owe this Blog to Evelyne, a labor of true love and dedication. So we'll now all be bloggers.I'm glad you like it.Stay connected with us as thru blogging. Puri"Yes- I agree. And come homecoming day, we will all be BLOGGY MARYS." -Cora
"Wow, galing-galing naman. I did not get a chance to look at the BLOG you created until now. If more classmates sign-in, lalabas ang creativity nila. Lalong magiging enticing ang ating pag-reunite sa isa't isa." -Sari
"Hi Evelyne,Thank you for sharing your talent with us. it is hard for technically challenged people like me , I enjoy reading all the other trivia. I am trying to see if I can do it.(blog) - Eloi

"Evelyne, your paintings are great. What could I say WOW...WOW....WOW....ang galing galing mo naman........" Esther
"Wow na Wow Talaga! Am truly impressed by your creativity and talent Ebb. When Ening and I talked a couple of nights ago, she mentioned the idea of having a website or a blog. I suggested to her to give Geri and Sari a call and bring up her plan. Late na pala siya sa kanyang idea. All the while, something was already cooking with the four of you guys, and SURPRIIIIIISE, the launching of the BLOG. " Really, great! Saludo ako! -Rose Lani
COMMENT FROM CLASSMATES:
From: Roselani - "Gotcha! I went back to the pictures and was able to zoom them large enough for me to recognize majority of our classHS60. I kept looking at them last night, enjoying the moment. It was so nice of Sari to share our class pictures with the group. I did not have any recuerdo cause our house burned in 1964. Everything lost except the clothes that we were wearing."
