A Visit Down Memory Lane - Bong Miaco

Visit Down Memory Lane (Bits and Pieces from Bong Miaco's Memory Bank!!!)

Bong with his wife Pauline

* Gene "Hitler" Totanes teaching us about Nazism! - Would anyone ever mistake us for Germans? I think "German Cut" is the closest we can get to being Aryan, wouldn't you agree? Hehehehe.

*Putting peanuts (Growers) inside a bottle of Sprite or Mountain Dew before gulping the bubbly clear liquid while eating the peanuts! - My mates here find this a strange habit of mine 'til now but I still keep on doing it 'coz I enjoy it so much. Who started this anyway? Binoy, please explain! You were in-charge of the canteen.

*Ransacking the kitchen in search of "bahaw", cholesterol-laden-used cooking oil and soy sauce after the basketball games! - Meo thanks for the extra canned sausages and pork 'n' beans!

*Pyriander and Raul Jer's funny antics! - This is one endless list.

*Swimming in the supposed-to-be a water tank used for showers, washing etc. in the college dorm. - Watch out for the spy. He could be around. Hehehehe.

*Asking Tata to buy for us liquor and finding out in the end that the price outside increased! - We are left with a dry mouth and a lost chance.

*Cleaning the grounds while others were enjoying the games after being caught escaping and loitering in the village for a bit of a perv, Hahahaha! - A little pride was still intact but having a bruised ego.

*Colegialas!!! - Who will forget them? Nah, I'm just joking here!!! Hehehehe.

*Faking that we were sick but we're not in it just to have a lazy day in bed! - We're doing it to have longer sleep and meals in bed...How do you call it again? Something that relates with "Garlic"... nagbabawang?

Writing 100? 1000? sentences " I will always speak in English from now on! " or words to that effect, if caught speaking in our local dialect! - Solution: 3-4 pens taped together!

* Raul Jer. reading the "PAUSE" word in the prayer book during the early morning and night prayers in the chapel! - Mind you he was serious about it too which added so much to the fun!

* Tryin' hard to smoke a cigarette in the dead of the night by unsuccessfully lighting the cigars with the light bulb up in the ceiling (imagine that, call it "matchsticks drought") in the "rejuvenated" toilet of the study hall! - Hey Larry...the two of us were guilty of this? Hehehehe.

* Where: Refectory
What : A community discussion on the topic " How To Protect and Save the Environment! "
Who : I can't remember who it was but his answer went like this... " When you catch fish in the ocean, don't use dynamite and ATOMIC BOMB!" ... that started a roar of laughter!!!

*Who Said What???:
- I entered the seminary because I want to be a PC ( Philippine Constabulary ).

- It is raining, aren't they?
ANONYMOUS ( sino nga ba ulit 'yun? )
- What's pany der?
PANY DER ( of course, no doubt about that!!! )

* Lying on Israel Gamis' extremely thick and cozy foam mattress when he was not around 'coz mine was only a plastic (straw) "banig" ! - Hey Israel, thankx! Anyway, I fixed it afterwards...
