"Hear thee thy Sons who Pledge Once More to Thee"

A warm welcome to Judge 68a and Iking 63!!

A big, big, great thanks to Ed and Zeny Rivera for hosting the get together to welcome Judge and Iking.

Guy walks into the house as we were seated on the sofa, chatting. Guy looks at us and asks: "kilala nyo pa ba ako?" OMG!! Everyone looks quizzically at each other and trying to probe deeper into our memories. And suddenly, I blurt out "Manny, Manny, barkadang Cubao, Manny del Rosario!!!" Everyone burst into laughter and applause. And the words "Forever true Sons of Thine we will be" drift into my mind. I am surprised, yet I am not surprised!

I heard oft repeated phrases: "tagal natin hindi nagkita!"; "naalala mo nung...."; "dun ka pa rin?" And of course: "Salamat" It was a great reaffirmation that "forever true sons of thine we will be."

BALIK SA DATI

====================

Dan, brod. Thanks for giving me a special mention in last Sat.'s get-together @ Brod Ed Rivera's place.
Your in toto account of my "dramatic" arrival if you will said it all.
And yes, this incident will repeat as brods reconnect at this point in time..which in turn adds more to the suspense and excitement.
This is the beauty of rebonding esp. at these our twilight years. We'll never know what we've missed 'til we're into the "sorpresahan, tawanan, tsikahan, asaran, kantyawan," like the good 'ol days.
So brods, given the chance, come and let's all relive the Betan spirit! The post-heyday version of camaraderie awaits. IBA AND DATING!
Take it from me, having attended a few of the frat's functions, there were never dull moments w/ the brods be it formal or casual.
By the way, I join all in welcoming Brods Iking Agana and "Judge" which was last Sat.'s highlight.
And an added bonus, lo & behold! Brod Gilbert Dulay was there, too among others.
MABUHAY ang Beta Sigma!
