her dominant posture and fascinating aura no doubt it was my former classmate ariane faye or

airport to catch my flight. as I arrived atthe airport I remember the advertisement that I’ve
heard over the radio when I was on my wayhere which says thatthis airport is one of the
biggest and upgraded airline in the world and I’mglad to know thatthis airport is designed,

6. constructed andowned by my former classmates mary ann rapiz and niel Andrew tan whose
now a renowned engineer and owned by an accountant and the famous entrepreneurs merry
hope salcedo and monica sermona . This airline is also consist of solid And prime aircraft
produced by the best aircraft company owned by the multibillionaire business woman jhoevel
Labrador. I headed to the waiting area; I decided to kill my time by reading the most magazine
that is available in the airline. The headline of the issue is the recent miss universe as I read her
profile i discovered thatthe newest ms universe is my prior classmate andrea Victoria sucaldito
who would have thought that the lady who usuallyhide behind her cameras lenses and hasa
stage anxiety back then would worn the crown of the most prestigious contest for women. As I
scan the magI read this article about an admired photographer thatwill have anexhibit in the
country, the said photographer hadan enormous grant to the entertainment industry
especially on the field of photography, she’s the one behind the successful super bowl coverage,
top grossing print adsand her recent activity is the miss universe she’s the one responsible for
the beautiful photos of the candidates, she’s also the official photographer of Asia’s next top
model and other prominent magazine all over the world. I was surprise to find out that the said
photographer is ALSO MY FORMER CLASSMATE ELLYN NITURADA. I continue reading the
mag until I reach the last page which has anarticle that talks about the staffand the most
magazine itself, I read the profile of each staff I learned that the editor in chief and the
publisher of this emphatic magazine is my former classmate abby grace pillado, she and her
team had published a lot of magazine she’s also the bestselling author of several books and

7. novels and aside from being a writer she’s also a prominent surgeon in the world. I was about to
read more about the magazine when I saw this ladyseating one chair away from me I looked at
her intently its sheena lingaya my former h.s classmate so I called her attention she glanced at
me after a second she recognized me then she sat beside me, we talk about each other she’s
now the hottest pediatrician in town we also converse about our other classmates before, she
told me that john mar aromin, hubert jaybiÑas andMichael Vasquez are now the captains of
their own ships they’re now conquering the seas all over the world while carl ganesh Gonzaga is
a successful businessman who owned a lot of huge companies in china. We were gladly talking
about our h.s life when the airline announces that my flight is ready to take off so I bid goodbye
to sheena and walk towards the plane. As I arrive at n.a.s.a. airbase I hurriedly fix our
requirements as I was checking our permits and other transcripts I received an email from my
former school when I was in high school the st. rose of lima school which says thatwe will have
an alumnihomecoming next month, I guess I have to take a day off from exploring the

already find out a lot of new heavenly bodies which we name after our names. I step into the
ship; were about to take off in 32 1…………..mr mortales I suddenly open my eyes andI see my
classmates staring at me together with our math teacher mr jr jee so it was all just a dream a
beautiful one indeed I glance atmy classmates; we may be a burden and a troublesome today
but I know this class will achieve andwill become somebody someday.
