Of Homecomings

Last weekend, I attended my high school's annual homecoming event. This year we were supposed to be in costume based on a scifi character. There were to be prizes for best costume.

A lot of people joined the costume party (I did not, sorry). The top choice for source of inspiration was, not surprisingly the Star Wars series. The alumni association head came as Yoda. There were storm troopers and androids. I think there were a lot of queens and princesses too (meaning Amidala and Leia). Some of the girls in our batch were talking about going as Leia when he was in the camp of Jabba the Hutt.

Anyway, it's really a great time to get together with old friends and classmates. Over the years, I have attended several of these events. It's always a thrill to see old faces and catch up with everybody else.

These events are also used as a call to give back to our alma mater. We are informed of the state of the school, its concerns and maybe some wishes too. Several batches have put up projects so that these concerns and wishes will be known to more people.

Are we proud of our school? We would not be at homecomings, we would not give back if we were not.

Philippine Science High School, let's continue to search for the untarnished truth.
