Welcome Address Don2x

I haven’t been last reunion. This time I had the perfect opportunity to meet my classmates and friends after such a long time. It was perfect; I was given an opportunity to give a welcome address. Welcome everyone to the INOPACAN NATIONAL HIGH SCHOOL alumni homecoming. It’s been almost 15 years since we left the gates of our alma mater in order to pursue our lifelong dreams. Time flies. So much have changed. Our looks, our receding hairlines, our waist- lines, our addresses.Tonight is definitely “Smells Like Teen Spirit” as we fill our cups with more “Ice, Ice Baby”. “Pare Ko” let us be together even if the time is past “214” and even if you are hit by “Lakas Tama”. I really “Don’t Speak” much about sentimental things but its “More than Words” can say, and I hope I’m not “Selling the Drama”. Everyone here tonight will surely remember this for the rest of their lives. We are all lucky to be able to arrange our schedules for this occasion. Your presence makes this reunion a success. For everyone else who are not here, may this night be a reason for them to find time for our next reunion. Some may have been hindered by time and distance from attending and some for other important reasons. But I’m sure they would be here if not for those reasons. We have with us tonight, some very special guests. They are our teachers. You might not remember what lectures they taught us, but I think these are not the things we remember. We remember the people we met, the interesting things they did, and things we did together. If memory is a child, high school is a mother. This is where our models, our frameworks, our philosophies in life have taken its roots. For all this time, all the branches have sprung from it. It’s the hub of all connections. It has always been a fact that high school is the venue for almost all our firsts towards adulthood. All the people that we have been in high school are the undeletable files of our hard drives. I especially want to thank everyone who made this affair a reality. The sponsors, alumni working abroad, and everyone who shared their time, money, effort, and talents in making this gathering a possibility.

I havent been last reunion. This time I had the perfect opportunity to meet my classmates and friends after such a long time. It was perfect; I was given an opportunity to give a welcome address.

Welcome everyone to the INOPACAN NATIONAL HIGH SCHOOL alumni homecoming. Its been almost 15 years since we left the gates of our alma mater in order to pursue our lifelong dreams. Time flies. So much have changed. Our looks, our receding hairlines, our waist-lines, our addresses.Tonight is definitely Smells Like Teen Spirit as we fill our cups with more Ice, Ice Baby. Pare Ko let us be together even if the time is past 214 and even if you are hit by Lakas Tama. I really Dont Speak much about sentimental things but its More than Words can say, and I hope Im not Selling the Drama.

Everyone here tonight will surely remember this for the rest of their lives. We are all lucky to be able to arrange our schedules for this occasion. Your presence makes this reunion a success. For everyone else who are not here, may this night be a reason for them to find time for our next reunion. Some may have been hindered by time and distance from attending and some for other important reasons. But Im sure they would be here if not for those reasons.

We have with us tonight, some very special guests. They are our teachers. You might not remember what lectures they taught us, but I think these are not the things we remember. We remember the people we met, the interesting things they did, and things we did together.

If memory is a child, high school is a mother. This is where our models, our frameworks, our philosophies in life have taken its roots. For all this time, all the branches have sprung from it. Its the hub of all connections. It has always been a fact that high school is the venue for almost all our firsts towards adulthood. All the people that we have been in high school are the undeletable files of our hard drives.

I especially want to thank everyone who made this affair a reality. The sponsors, alumni working abroad, and everyone who shared their time, money, effort, and talents in making this gathering a possibility.

Once again welcome. Have a wonderful time meeting old friends and classmates.Im indeed proud to be a product of INOPACAN NATIONAL HIGH SCHOOL.
