Seen it all, done it all, can't remember most of it.

Once a Bosconian, always a Bosconian

January 31st marks the 119th death anniversary of Saint John Bosco, the “Father and Teacher of Youth” and the founder of the Salesian Society otherwise known as the Salesians of Don Bosco.

This day is special to me primarily because of my being a Bosconian, and proud of it. I’ve been one for the greater part of my life. I’ve spent most of my formative and schooling years studying at Don Bosco schools, with a few other schools mixed in between levels. I finished my grade school and high school years at Don Bosco Academy, in Pampanga. And I took up computer engineering at Don Bosco Technical College in Mandaluyong City.

Come to think of it, most of my relatives are Bosconians (you never say one “was” a Bosconian, since once you get to be one, you always will be). The brothers four, (as me and my brothers are called), my uncles, cousins, and even Conne’s cousins, bear the same ‘mark’.

Having said that, you can bet all your marbles that my son CJ will probably end up being one too. Amen.

    Hi Sharkey! If you want to do the meme, I’ll tag you now :) Just copy and fill in your own answers and then post them onto your blog. I was going to tag you, but wasn’t sure you’d want to participate in a meme.

    PS. Did you see the photos on the internet of that shark I mentioned from Japan?? Creepy looking!

    Yes, I was finally able to see the shark you mentioned. It does look creepy. Although it looked more like an eel to me. :)

    And for my first meme venture, tag away! :)

    Done!

    PS. I also think that shark looked more like an eel. Pretty freaky looking, eh?
