Nineteen Forgotten

Post created on July 27, 2009 by Reesie under Family, Personal 

My sister and I were browsing her old photo albums over the weekend. To our delight, we found the most precious photo of all photos in the world, our one and only family picture taken way back when.  We were very excited. It was like we found a bar of gold in our closet. We thought we’ve lost all copies of this photo when a typhoon destroyed our little house  back then.  I remember we had a wood-laminated copy of this. Ginawa atang panggatong kaya din nawala. Hehe. Just by looking, memories of childhood and poverty are coming back to me. This brought me pride and humility at the same time.

We don’t have a family heirloom but I consider this as one.  This is an invaluable piece of property of the family. It would be very hard to gather the whole family again for a picture. Yes, it is possible but not as of this moment.

Anyhoot, can you find me in this photo?

I hope you had a great weekend, folks! :D

    yung mga old family pictures namin sa bahay kailangang palitan na ng album. inaamag na at nasisira na yung pictures sa loob. hehehe. pero nakakatuwang balikan nga yung mga ganon. hindi na maibabalik pero pwede mo lang imaginin ulit.

    hulaan ko, ikaw yung matangkad na naka-stripes na polo shirt sa kanan? hahaha joke lang. ikaw ba yung kalong ni tatay?

    very nice family picture! very nostalgic indeed. i bet these are the times when things were still plain and simple. ung tipong complete lang ang members ng family over a simple dinner eh uber na sa saya. oh those good old mem’ries.

    come to think of it, tatlo lang kami sa pamilya: tatay (+), mommy and moi, pero wala akong makitang picture just the 3 of us. lucky you, prized possession talaga itong picture nyo.

    hula ko… ikaw ung nakablue! :)

    mam, uso gyud ang bangs sa una sa?;-)

  12. Reesie says:

    Mga folks, ako po yung nakablue! :D

    • a.r.d.y.e.y. says:

      salamat reesie. hinintay ko talaga sagot mo kasi sabi mo bukas mo sasagutin. hehehe. although ang unang hula ko eh yung babaeng nasa pinaka-kaliwa. kaso magka-age lang tayo at yung ganito kalumang picture eh mga bata pa tayo nun kaya hindi pwedeng ikaw yun. hehehe.

  13. an2nette says:

    Hi anak, that’s my first guess yung nakablue nga, dinagdag ko lang yung sa lap kasi sinundan ko yung mga nanghula, malakas talaga instinct ko, mag ina talaga tayo sa web

  14. TSI says:

    reesie alam ko ikaw yung ka akap ng ate mo tama!!! very obvious lol, marami rin akong old pics buti na-preserve ang mga yun

    • Reesie says:

      magkakamukha lang kasi kaming magkakapatid kayo medyo mahihirapan ang hindi talaga ko kilala. so kilala mo talaga ako tsi, imperness. hihihi.

      kailangan ngang i preserve ang mga ganitong kayamanan.
