High School Life .. Oh my High School

High school life, ba’t ang high school life ay walang kasing saya
bakit kung graduation na’y luluha kang talaga?

Full Lyrics here:

My attempt to translate the lyrics to english:

( High School Life, why is it so fun/exciting/happy.

Why does tears always comes out on every graduation day. )

I like this meme from Grace, so let me reminisced a little bit about my high school life.

Who was your best friend?
I have a handful of friends, but a bosom friend? I don’t think I have. But we do have a “barkada” a group of friends, whom I still keep in touch till now, and who I always have dinner, hang out with every time I go back home. That would be Cheryl, Bernadette, Erna, Ivy,  and if they are around, Charmae, Cherry Bliss , Jurelie and Lady.  They are not just best friend, they are family.

What kind of car did you drive?
Bandolino :D .. The school is just 15-20 minutes walk from home.

It’s Friday night. Where were you?
At home watching my favorite show. I have a curfew. And beside my friends are also not allowed to roam the streets at night..

Were you considered a flirt?
Nope.

Were you in the band, orchestra, or choir?
Nope. No talent in that department. But I did like our PMT ( Preparatory Military Training) though. Nothing serious,  we were the last batch to have a PMT. The school stop it, cause it looks like promoting war or something in that area. We only do some drills and marching in the shaded area of the school cause the PTA won’t allow staying too much under the sun. I was the Brigade S2 ( Intelligent Officer ) :D

Were you a nerd?
Nope.

Who was your favorite teacher?
The Ma sisters I think. The elder Ma is my Science teacher, and the younger is my English teacher. I learned a lot from them.  The english teacher was very particular specially in pronunciation.

What was your school mascot?
None I think.

Did you go to the Prom?
No prom. They stop having prom, because they taught it was the reason why students get pregnant..

Did you have a job your senior year?
Nope.

Did you go to school with anyone who is now famous?
I don’t know.. ME?? :D

 Did you go to a senior trip?
I did went on a trip, but it was for a certain competition. There was not much of a trip those days. Parents are paranoid.

Have you gone to a class reunion?
Not yet.. I so badly want to go .. I hope there would be one soon…

  1. Getting pregnant on proms?? Why, was it held in motels? lol!

  2. lol.. mao gyud grace.. as in weird kaau ang reason. Basta I have never experienced prom in HS. KJ kaau ang mga teachers.. hmmp.

    I think they just made that up. I went to a National High School, so the population is quite large. It’s to hard to handle hundreds of kids, so i guess the teachers don’t want to have extra responsibilites.. :D
