Small world

I haven’t been called Bart (first four letters of my last name) since my UP days. So I was a bit taken aback when someone called me by that nick today. It’s not exactly girly but I’m used to it. Or at least, WAS used to it. As it turns out, it was one of my old friends from college who’s currently visiting Houston. Such a wonderful surprise.

Who would’ve thought that I’ll be seeing him in a bookstores that I don’t frequent? Anyhow, he’ll be here till Memorial day weekend so I know we have time to hang out later on.

Hmmmm. I can’t believe he had a brief stint as an instructor at Ateneo, and now, at UP MLA. He was such a clown in class before. I wonder how he teaches his students.

Such weird timing since I’ve been having nostalgia attacks recently.
