Great 10 days in Manila. MGM888 was absolutely fabulous!
Back to work yesterday after a much needed time off with my family in the UK.

post 888 announcements

1. copy of all the digital photos to be posted in an FTP site where you can download them – this site will be announced soon

2. copy of the 888 reunion in dvd – production of the dvd will take a couple of weeks; similarly, we will find the fastest, easiest and cheapest way for this dvd to reach you.

3. shirt reorder (100 pcs) – the commitee has decided that we will still reorder 100 pcs shirt. Aside from those who were not able to get the shirt (during the 888)and paid their contributions, we are still open to those who might want to have one for PhP 1000. Yes, you read it right. Remember, we are not selling the 888 shirt per se. Whatever contribution you give will greatly help increase and generate our funds for our next reunion. How about in time for the London Olympics in 2012? It will be called MIT MGM 2012!

MIT MGM 888 . . . a resounding success!

Unknown to all, this “picture-taking moment” was just a prelude to add a little drama to what was to surprise them later . . . . a colorful FIREWORKS display from the top of the admin bldg courtesy of Louie Sarmineto (Orica Explosives). A magical moment indeed!

WE’RE READY! . . .are you?

The 888 prime movers made a courtesy call to MGB Dir. Ramos today while yours truly is showing and claiming victory as early as now! yahoo!
