Immaculate Conception Seminary Academy is the only
Catholic coed High School the island of Catanduanes
ever had, & was located in the capital town of Virac.
Organized and managed by the Diocese of Virac, the
school was uniquely designed to educate seminarians
& non-seminarians including girls from all 11 towns of
Catanduanes.

Our Batch of 1983 is the second to the last batch, after
the school closed in 1985. Omar Zantua had consistently
lead this group of 42 academically, and Evelyn Rodulfo
& Marcelo Alberto shared salutatorian spots. Members
of this batch has really come a long way by achieving ex-
traordinary professional accomplishments individually.
With some staying in Catanduanes, many have left over-
seas including the States, Europe and Middle East. Like
any other batch, some of us came up surprisingly big in
our careers. To- date, we have produced four priests,
a doctor, several engineers, two lawyers, professors,
epidemiologist, & a pilot.

Glad to have you with us. Mabalos.

All:

In talking to Lerds Gapaz this morning, he discussed our Batch's donation in re-constructing our old ICSA school in Virac, Catanduanes. The goal he said is P70,000 per batch and the construction is scheduled this April 2005. Lerds has been very active in meetings and is assigned to a key-role of design/modify/improvise the facility layout. He also mentioned Peding Que is here in Daly City, California for the same exact reason.

This will be a follow-up letter we sent out from sometime two months ago and may be the last solicitation request. Should we NOT hear anything, we take it as no interest on your part.

Thanks and God Bless!

ICSA HS BATCH OF 83

WHEN WILL I BE HAPPY?

We convince ourselves that life will be better after we get married, have a baby, then another. Then we are frustrated that the kids aren't old enough and we'll be more content when they are. After that, we're frustrated that we have teenagers to deal with. We will certainly be happy when they are out of that stage.

We tell ourselves that our life will be complete when our spouse gets his/her act together, when we get a nicer car, when we are able to go on a nice vacation or when we retire. The truth is there's no better time to be happy than right now. If not now, when? Your life will always be filled with challenges. It's best to admit this to yourself and decide to be happy anyway. Happiness is the way. So, treasure every moment that you have and treasure it more because you shared it with someone special, special enough to spend your time with ... and remember that time waits for no one.

So, stop waiting
... until your car or home is paid off.
... until you get a new car or home.
... until your kids leave the house.
... until you go back to school.
... until you finish school.
... until you lose 10 lbs or until you gain 10 lbs.
... until you get married.
... until you get a divorce.
... until you have kids.
... until you retire.
... until summer, until spring, until winter, or until fall.
... until you die.

There is no better time than right now to be happy. Happiness is a journey, not a destination. So work like you don't need money, love like you've never been hurt, and, dance like no one's watching.
