MIAG-AO REDUX (The Graduate Part III)

Miag-ao's grand church is as it was except for the repainted statue in front of its ornate facade.

The yellow flowers too were in bloom as before although we have grown bigger and Balong is now taller than Nanay. 

We were here 4 years ago to enroll Bulan and we're back now for his graduation.

The Oblation still stands proudly nude while we wore our semi-best for the Baccalaureate Services and Commencement Exercises. 

In the covered court where we gathered, the College Deans announced the number of candidates, the Executive Vice President proclaimed them graduates, and the sablays shifted from right to left shoulders.

That was it, four years done and Bulan is now a a college grad!

We will miss our time by the beach, Bulan will have no more oily breakfasts that cost him a gallbladder, and Nanay is happy she's going to Bora!
