All Hail To Our Beloved Assumption!On October 16, 2005, I went back to my alma mater wearing my old high school uniform and proudly sang the school song along.
Old Girls' Day is always such a fun and nostalgic event. Nostalgic because of all the remiscing of the years that have passed, watching a series of short videos on what has been in the lives of the silver, ruby and golden jubilarians, and paying tribute to all those who have gone before us - nuns, teachers and classmates. It's fun because of the numerous song and dance numbers prepared by the jubilarians of the year, hording cans of Assumption tart, seeing all these successful women and mothers wearing their uniforms, pretending they're 17 again.
It's been close to 7 years since the last time I wore the AC uniform, close to 3 for Bam, and almost 50 years since Tita Azon graduated from high school. Then there was Tita Baby, the Golden jubilarian, who performed with her class in a song, dance, and Tai-chi sequence. So yesterday, Bam, Regina, Tita Azon, and I had our picture taken in the newly renovated Mother Rose Auditorium - that's 3 generations of Assumption girls in uniform.
All hail to our beloved Assumption!
