SHA Batch '75: Our Journey Through Snapshots - Memoirs
HIUSADYA 5-DEKADA
Stepping out of our cherished Alma Mater fifty years ago, this year, we were unaware that it was the beginning of our journey into history. From the humble beginnings of the delicate charm and gentle innocence of our youth to the tumultuous external world, our lives have endured many challenges. The institution that shaped and molded us instilled in us the resilience to withstand any adversities that nature and mankind alike could bestow. Like bamboo, we are pliant yet firm, enduring hardships and struggles without minding the rough roads along the way to our golden anniversary.
This year, we proudly celebrate our 50th anniversary by sharing snapshots that freeze those precious moments in time when Batch '75 made a significant impact with the lessons we learned from our Alma Mater. These glimpses may be brief, but they tell countless stories of the years we spent together. As our President, Ma. Velma Prosianos-Borja, emphasized, let us be a beacon of influence for the youth to see. We have much to offer for them to emulate, and as they watch over time, we hope to provide the guidance they need to excel in their fields of endeavor.
Our journey has been one of resilience and growth, marked by the unwavering support of our Alma Mater. As we look back on the past five decades, we are filled with gratitude for the experiences that have shaped us and the bonds that have strengthened us. Let us continue to inspire future generations, showing them that with determination and perseverance, they, too, can overcome any obstacles and achieve greatness. Here's to the next chapter of our journey, filled with hope, pride, and the enduring spirit of Batch '75.
We would like to express our profound gratitude to our Superior, the late Mo. Consuelo Peñeda, RVM, and our Class Adviser, the late Francisca C. Prosianos. Their unwavering support and guidance have been instrumental in our journey. We also extend our heartfelt thanks to all our dedicated teachers: Lino Marcojos, Vevenciola Estrada, Rufa Taylaran, Anita Plateros, Fatima Tanupan, Jeremias Mejorada, Zosima Ruano, Teresita Palban, Evangeline Pagaduan, Vicente Veloso, and Martiniana Lobregas, among others, who were always there to guide us. To our parents, guardians, friends, and all who have extended a helping hand in one way or another, each of them has played a significant role in shaping us into the individuals we are today. The happiness we experienced and the tears we shed during our failures are all part of our joyous journey.
As we sailed through time, we discovered that preserving memories was the best way to cherish these moments. The stills captured across the years are a testament to our days, offering glimpses into our past.

We are deeply appreciative of their efforts, patience, and the countless hours they have dedicated to our development. We are forever grateful for their mentorship and the positive impact they have had on our lives. By sharing our stories, we hope to inspire those aspiring for excellence. Each narrative highlights our resilience and the bonds we’ve formed, honoring our past while inspiring one another to continue striving for success.
