Together

I've been feeling down these past few weeks. Nope, nothing to do with my dear ex. Man, I think I'm moving on :) Anyway, being with my old college buddies (few of my sets of friends from my batchmates from my "first-time-around" college) somehow made me feel enlighted, even for a while.

Our Alma Mater is now celebrating its 80th Foundation Day this month. And, last Friday, the prestigious Miss Campus coronation night was held. Actually, the pageant is called, Miss NTC (National Teachers College-My Alma Mater). Everybody looked forward to that special night, since the said pageant only held every five years. Everybody was so excited, especially those beauty pageant fans, including me :)

In the said night, some of my coolest old college batchmates came to see the show, and so, I had a great day. Or great night :)

NTC-Hotel and Restaurant Management batch 2001-2005. Except me, who just graduated this March :p
Rhea, Miss NTC 2003, Nelda, Denise, Gladys, Marianette.

Miss NTC 2003-Rose Ann P. Cortez, from my department, Hotel and Restaurant Management, who now works as a bartendress somewhere in Singapore. Yup, she just went home to attend and pass the crown to the new Miss Campus.

Miss NTC 2003 Rose Ann, and the 2nd runner-up Miss NTC 2003 Gladys. Both are graduated from Hotel and Restaurant Management, three years ago. Gladys now works as a bank secretary.

Jerome, the one at the center, now works as a linen and laundry supervisor in a four-star hotel. The girl at the left side, Nelda, is extending her school terms due to some reason, and will be graduating next year in March.

It's nice that most of my college buddies are now with stable jobs, and most are applying what they aquired from college, while me, just sitting at home. Actually, I've been trying, but I've been always rejecting.

Anyway, I then realized how good it is to sometimes go out and spend your time with your old friends. It would mean a lot, I thought.

It doesn't matter how far apart we are now

You can add up all the miles in between

If you take a good look all around now

All you see is you and me

When I look at myself in the mirror

I see you standing there smiling at me

And I'm right back at the beginning

Lost inside this memory I won't ever let go, all that I want to hold onto

That we belong together

Like the moon and stars and midnight

We'll be strong forever

Cuz we belong together

Doesn't matter how long that it takes you

Cuz I'll always be right by your side

And even when darkness awaits you

I'll be there to be your light

It's a hard lonely road, when you're standing outside in the cold

Sometimes it's hard to learn to let go

Life always knows the right moments to show you what you needed
