Hello everyone! Herewith are my black and White Original Photos way back mid 1970's. Well, I am now 67, praise God, and you can imagine how old I am during those years! Am pretty sure your mom's were so young way back then. Actually, my batch are now retired (most of them) and are now enjoying the fruits of their labor after long years of service from their respective jobs.

We have our group chat so we often share any important events that's connected to our Alma Mater, Dansalan College which was burned down by the rebels during the siege in Marawi City in Mindanao. All we can do is reminisce the good old days when we were still young at heart and yes, full of energy! On the above picture was during 1969-70 when we were in our first year. We would share whatever photos we've saved after all those years! We were named the Victor's Team wherein I was one of the cheerleaders.

I was one of the Glee-Club members in our school. I did the second voice since I'm an alto.

This was taken during Juniors and Seniors Promenade. Many wore long skirts since most of us were Muslims though we still followed the pink and blue colors.

Our 3rd year was somewhat irregular due to the first uprising in Mindanao a year after the proclamation of Martial Law in the Philippines where we were forced to leave Marawi to save our lives since it was declared to be a "No man's Land" by the military government when things got worst. Thankfully, we were able to return and able to graduate! Most of us were classmates since first year high school in same section A class. I am proud to say that most of us did graduate in college with important positions in Mindanao State university and some in MSU-IIT in Iligan City. Would you believe guys that two our most talkative boys was our class valedictorian since his elementary years until we graduated in highschool and the other became a lawyer then retired as provincial prosecutor? So funny!
