X - FAVORITE SCHOOL STORY:
Our 4th grade class under our Music teacher, Miss Omeng Alcasid taught us the "Blue Danube Waltz." We sang in many street corners in Canlubang; in the marketplace stair; in front of Jose Rizal monument; and crossroad between the hospital, cooperative store, Barrio Hospital street in front of the Reyes' residence. Whenever I hear the Blue Danube, I get goosebumps and my eyes well with tears.
