Mang Eddie my high school service driver

oo rey. iisa lang ang mang-eddie na may jeep at
coaster. at oo iyung 8 track tapes na iyon eh malabo
mong maalala dahil itinigil na niya iyon nung bandang
HS kami nung 1989. at hindi bastos ang mga iyon. he
played hagibis, hotdogs and juan delacruz band. mga
rockers tayo noon ano. oh he also played a lot of tito
vic and joey. iyon iyung mga natatandaan ninyo na
bastos.

eight tracks rule pare!

ganoon naman dati eh, magkakapatid at magpipinsan
iyung mga nasa service, the agapay brothers, the
olivers, cobarrubias, kaming mga de guzman, etc. etc.
remember kada last day of school, tumitigil si mang
eddie kina josephine bakery sa may concepcion (near
7-11) at nagpapaicecream siya? at nung nagkaroon ng
jolibee ay ganoon din?

actually, i know a lot about him kasi, first kamaganak
ko si tito eddie and second, i rode with him all my
life in marist. marist would not be marist without the
experience i had going and coming from school. how
many times did we laugh and cry coming and going to
school. the heartbreaks, the small fights from
gradeschool about baon and cartoons to girls and
facial hair in high school.

what we must all realize as alumni is that everything
we are now, is because of what we experienced during
those formative years. college doesn't really count,
alam mo na and you wouldn't really get scarred that
way anymore. but how many of us still remember those
embarassing moments in grade school (ones we hopefully
want to forget) and those fantastic times of innocent
bliss and maybe getting those first twinges of a
crush. how many of us fell in love in those jeeps and
coasters.

i can proudly say that i am an alumnus of mang eddie's
service, because i learned a lot in that school also.
many things that i still use up to now. can't say the
same for the things i learned in marist.

huwag nating kalimutan iyung mga iba diyan na
sinervice ni bangus, ni mang tony, etc. etc.
