I HAD A GREAT TIME by Sir Ariel Pabon via email

To all batch '82,

I arrived safely yesterday still nostalgic about the experience I had. This has been one of the most memorable vacations I had in Pinas...thanks to all of you!

Thank you so much for the warmest welcome I had ever had in my life. You guys went out of your way to make me feel a part of you. After 25 years I have always longed of seeing you all again and I must admit I was teary eyed to see that most of you have been very successful in your chosen career. I AM SO PROUD OF YOU ALL!!!

You folks have outdone yourselves! The tremendous responses and positive feedbacks from other batches about your program and how smoothly everything went was something that you all should be proud of. The dance number was... WOW...need I say more? The way you gave honor to your old mentors made a statement of who you have become... great leaders who knew how to follow...true ladies and gentlemen....honorable in your own right. You have become what those mentors have always dreamt of, men and women of character. You have made us all proud.

Most of all, I want to thank all of those who took the time to hang out with me both at 18th st pala-pala and L'Sea. Man, that was what I call GREAT TIME! I totally enjoyed every moment of those nights and I could not help myself bragging to my brothers and sisters about you all. I will cherish every memory of those nights. Thank you all and I hope to see you again soon.

Well, if anybody sets foot in California without calling me will suffer my wrath. So, if anyone of you planning to visit the States, you are most welcome in my humble home. I love you all folks!!!

Ariel
