Class 4-41 or BULAG 41,
(Adviser, Mr. Norberto Caberoy). Fourth year is the highlight of
one's secondary education. Life is experienced first hand
through the heart-aches and frustrations, as well as the elations
and victories from post-puberty to adolescent years within the
confines of the SBC campus. Looking back, San Beda's policy of
"dismantling" homeroom classes every year was beneficial to everyone
because it widened our circle of friends.
About 80% of 4-41 were classmates in lower years- be it home room,
subject specific classes (Science, Math and English), electives
(Spanish, Auto Mechanics, Statistics) and remedial classes, hence
the camaraderie was evident. More so with our adviser, Mr. Norberto
"Bing" Caberoy, who was also our theology teacher in our
freshman/sophomore and even junior years. It was during this year
when senti songs experienced a resurgence. Thanks to the songs of
Lam Hall and Sharon Cuneta's first movie "Dear Heart" (how baduy
could you get!!!). We had our taste of reality or victims of
society's unequal distribution of wealth during our Bivouac in
Tanay? We shared the campsite with Maryknoll and Ateneo. Their food
may have tasted sumptuous compared to our almost non-palatable
rations; their attire may have been extravagant by our middle income
standards, but we sure had a grand time at Erap's camp site.
Bulag 4-41 had its share of brainy guys in the persons of Patrick
Pena and Tony Fernando. The class also placed well in the Timpawitan
and Christmas Chorale festivals. We also had our share of model
platoons and MP's and NC athletes such as Ronnie Cunanan & Megui
Geronimo. A high note of our final year was winning the NCAA Juniors
Basketball crown. Thanks to the winning jump shot of Fitz Canilao of
4-42. We had more than our share of R&R. Who could ever forget the
soiree with Saint Paul's QC at Richard Almeida's New Manila pad? Or
the last class overnight outing at Al Yu's Batangas resort? The
camaraderie of 4-41 is still there. Hopefully, the fire would be
fanned further as the big day draws near. And I am certain with
this! (By Anthony Felix de Castro)
This
site is only as good as the info we have. We need updates of
our former classmates DEAD or ALIVE. This site will probably
expire by the year 2050. The last surviving person on this
list (shall we say the winner) should maintain this site at
all cost.
