:: CANOSSA SYNDROME ::

Remembering higschool, remembering Canossa...
Got this from my Friendster Bulletin Board (or was it from our batch's YahooGroups?) and its quite entertaining.

So, Canossian Bloggers (Aileen, Mitz, Charu, Tin, Chepot, Idz, Jing, Kends, et. al.), copy and fill-up, okay? : ) Puh-leeze?

1. Bakit ka nahuhuli sa pila bago mag-flag ceremony?
Can't remember. I am ALWAYS early during assembly because it's always a good time to see your crush/es. Haha. Or if I was ever late it was probably because I detest the mandatory CAT assembly each Friday morning when we were Seniors.

2. Anong favorite mong bilhin sa canteen?
Arroz Caldo, Canossa's version of Kare-kare and Coke

3. Na-guidance/principal's office ka na ba?
Haha! Yup! It was in Sophomore year when I was summoned by Sr. Vicky (together with a girl classmate) because of an almost catfight. Then there was also a time in Senior year when me, Cherry and Ivy were asked by the Guidance Office to wear the prescribed PE uniform instead of wearing our colorful shirts.

4. Sinong favorite teacher/s mo doon?
Ms. Naval, Mrs. Del Valle, Mrs. Barroso and Sr. Lorna (?!)

Oh! Guess why is there a term called "Canossa Syndrome". As far as I know there are only THREE of us who uses that term despite the fact that there are so many out there who are "inflicted". The term was actually coined after several experiences of "going back to the past..." (or rather going back to past lurvvveeess).
