As most of my friends here, have read my posts, my HS batchmates and I , are practicing weekly for our batch’s dance as we are the ruby jubilarian on our alma mater’s homecoming on May. The practice was halted for more than a week , because of the observance of Holy Week. Yesterday, was our practice again. I was so excited to do it. Actually, I have lots of reasons to be excited and motivated to practice our dance. I miss my batchmates, our laughter, our stories and most of all, the foods prepared by the maids of our president, for dinner. Dinner after the more than two hours practice, is always a very happy one, because we were tired from practicing repeatedly our dance, we cannot all help ourselves from eating much. And yesterday, was a very happy day for me. Finally, I danced without mistakes. I now, memorized the dance sequences. Besides, the dinner was again so delicious. What made you happy yesterday? Note: Picture was taken when we had our last practice and also the pictorial before the Holy week.

Actually , you all can. If there will be a coordinator or a president who is as patient and industrious as our btach's president. All those from abroad would simply coordinate with her if ever they come home from abroad , so we can gather. It's her who has all our contact numbers other than being on FB batch's account.

@SIMPLYD I hope it is possible. Our president in class is still no news from him. I hope it will happen soon.

The rehearsal of dance for your alma mater’s homecoming has taken you a lot of of time.I guess you wouldn't be tired out dancing with your batchmates.

Indeed. My vacation leaves of 2400 minutes or 400 hours is now only at 1425 minutes since i started using it for undertime of 1 1/2 hours each time we have a practice. But that's okay, because at least I have contributed by participating in our dance. No, it isn't actually tiring . I enjoy dancing that's why.

Oh what a missed opportunity to have fun with your batchmates. Although, why lunch? At least it its dinner, everyone will not hurry because office time is over.

Wel , it's inevitable. Anyway, it's just twice or once a day. Besides, we lost calories before eating because we practiced for more than 2 hours before dinner. So, we have the reason to eat, because we were tired.

So you can be sure now that you will not commit wrong steps on the final presentation. And so great that you have a happy bonding with your friends. I know that feeling! My family had a two day vacation in a resort on top of the mountain. It was a wonderful place and so we were very happy.

Indeed. After how many practices since March , i finally memorized them all. Thank you. That was taken after our dance practice. It's actually also a birthday treat of one of those batchmates. Though every after practice, we always have a hearty dinner- the most fun. ha ha ha

That is true. Actually my 5 days paid vacation leaves is nearly depleted because of the 1 1/2 hours undertime for twice a week, I allot for the practice. But that's okay. All for the sake of making our dance beautiful. The choreographer was so happy because finally we all now dances in sync and without mistakes.

It's always good when you get the practice without mistakes. I love watching the dances of people who have spent a lot of time getting the choreography down perfect. It is so beautiful and I know yours will be as well. Dinner after practice is the icing on the cake. You all look so happy.
