Why do we need a website?

Welcome to your blog, your very own website... where you can post messages to your former schoolmates, organize group activities, or just keep in touch.

This site is still under construction... so don't expect the bells and whistles yet... just a rush job, so to speak, inspired by seeing and bonding once again with classmates via a two-day reunion held May 29-30, 2010.

With collective inputs from everybody, we mean everybody from Class 70, its pages and entries will grow and grow... and then some. Later, its appearance will not only improve but its contents will be more organized. To achieve that, these pages need inputs by way of contents and substance from all of us.

Why Class 70 needs a website is just like asking - Why do our school need and use a Bulletin Board, then and now?

This online site serves that purpose. And much more.  Updates, events planning, online collaboration, info that you as part of this amazing oftentimes 'nutty' batch want the rest of us to know about - from serious, more formal matters to... otherwise, du'h.

In high school, some of the more daring love to write grafitti on the school walls [rest rooms were a favorite].  Now, fourty short years later, we can scrawl them here to our hearts content.  Remember that long-time crush you had during 3rd Year that you never had the chance to say 'luv u.' Gather your guts, now's your chance, say it here!

Facebook, Friendster, and other social networking sites are good but it's too public for semi-private topics that only your uber classmates will comprehend.. Try mo saying 'Mxxx, crush ko u during hi-skol, Signed Txx' and you'll draw frowns from your facebook friends. Post them here and you'll surely draw collective chuckles... and applause!

Moreover, kung me racket ka [read business, professional service, etc} that the rest of us need to know, post mo dito.

Also, an email address has been created for the members for sending private messages to each other, sort of an email exchange link where we can trade mobile phone numbers, landlines, addresses, etc. Here we go - mhsbatch70@gmail.com

The comments section are open for Class 70 members. Ke tagalog, bisaya, taglish, kahit jejemon pwidÊĘh... este pwede...  hrmm.. Small Talk, Big Talk.  Just click on comments [below] and fire away. 

Feel free to leave your messages...
