A Strange Dialogue

i spent the past weekend at my friend k's house in van nuys. she's one of my oldest friends--we go way back in elementary, and we attended the same schools up until college. we were also neighbors until she moved here to the US three years ago.

by the time she picked me up at the metrolink van nuys station last friday, our conversation was peppered with lots of do-you-remembers as well as newsbits about our other high school classmates. this was how it went (not verbatim, though):

k: alam mo ba na si j me asawa na't anak?
me: hindi. talaga? ilang taon na?
k: one month old pa lang. sila a, jo at m me mga anak narin. nagkikita kami palagi nga nung mga wala pa silang anak.
me: hah? grabe naman!
k: eh mga tpg boys? naalala mo me mga bansag sila sa isa't isa?
me: oo naman noh. eh kamusta nman sila?
k: kasama sila sa liga ng basketball. nagkikita-kita parin silang lahat, pero si jo wala na.
me: eh nasan na sya?
k: nasa canada na, me asawa narin. ang taba!
me: talaga? ok ah! hindi ko alam yun. dami narin pala me mga pamilya sa batch natin no?
k: oo nga! eh ikaw, me alam ka pa ba sa mga ibang classmates natin?
me: wala eh. kaw na lang magkwento.
k: wala kang alam?! eh kaw yung nasa pinas! ano na lang alam mo?
me: sorry wala talaga eh.

yeah, i really didn't know what was happening with a lot of my batchmates in high school. strange? i think not. but maybe.

=p

  1. for all you know your other high school classmates are already blogging, it's just a matter to finding them. then you could all catch up with each other
