Happy 2009!

Happy New Year to Everyone!

The clock & calendar has now registered 26 years and counting...
That's how long it's been since we last said goodbye to TCQC HS, now known as TUA.

Hail Beloved Trinity
Behold thy colors wave high
You're the pride we hold so dear
To thee we pledge our loyalty
Beloved Alma Mater
Come behold its glory clear
May our lives enlarge thy fame...
Trinity's noble name

Wow Tatak'83 TCQC HS Grand Alumni Homecoming 2/02/08

We've just concluded our 25th year High School Reunion at the TCQC HS Quadrangle last Feb. 02, 2008 (coincidentally also Royce's 41st bday).

Verdict: A Huge Success! The gauge was not on how fancy the set up was, but rather on whether the program was one where attendees from all batches could feel the camaraderie and inclusiveness of being a tricolian, no matter how old you were. Sabi nga ng mga esposos y esposas na dumalo, kakaiba ang samahang batch'83. Like what Mr. Magculang said towards the end of the night, Trinity College HS & TUA is not so much about buildings & structures, but rather on the spirit within her alumni, that which speaks of determination, the pursuit of ideals towards the common good of our fellow mankind. Sa tingin niya, dala natin ang spirit na ito.

Maski na hindi sosyal ang dating ng eskwela natin, hindi pa rin natin ipagpapalit ang pinagdaanan natin sa TCQC HS. Diyan tayo maraming natutunan at pinagsamahan na hindi mapapantayan ng ganoon lamang. Proud to be a Tricolian, through & through.

Anyway, for those who weren't able to attend, here's the link to see the pictures .">http://pearl83.smugmug.com/gallery/4289920_Rsw5G#252053149>.

Thanks to the batch'83 planning committee:

Raul Dimaculangan, Antonio Tanedo, Eric De Leon, Ricky Velasco, and others, to name a few.Thanks to all the other groups outside the Philippines, who made it a point to reach as many alumni as possible and encourage them to go home for this momentuous event. It wouldn't have been as successul without the cooperation of those both near & far.
