High School Alumni Homecoming Speech
Each of us in our Public Speaking Class was assigned with different occasions for us to have a speech on that time. I was given the privilege to give a speech during a
High School Alumni Homecoming. And this was what I talked about…
Isn’t it great to be a Upian?
Yesterday. Tomorrow. And Now.
Yesterday. Tomorrow. Now.
Ladies and gentlemen, alumni of the University of the Philippines, colleagues, fellow time travelers- welcome to Homecoming. By sheer will power we’ve turn back the calendar to 2007 tonight.
The friends we make in high school will stay with us for the rest of our lives. we tend to judge ourselves by where they are in life and believe me, you can bet that they are doing the same. If you have been asked to give any speech for your alma mater’s reunion consider it a big deal! It is your chance to tell them how confident you are, how far you have come, and how much each of them means to you. Let me help you mark this major milestone with a speech that is witty, humorous, and utterly sincere.
You were all beautiful, all wonderful. But now you’re more beautiful and more wonderful than ever. I can still remember most of our memories in high school, how we stood together through all the storms, and how we shared all the glory and honor that we attained. Of course, let us not forget all the “kilig” moments that we had. Remember all those hidden admirations and relationships that we had? They all made us human.
On a serious note, maybe the memory book is really what this event is all about. For the better part of the 70 people in the University of the Philippines batch of 2007 who grew up together. We had the honor and great good fortune to live, love and learn in the University that is known as the Philippines’ center of academic excellence. In 2007, we were thrust out into, and upon the world. I think we knew at that time when we graduated, that we as a batch, had something special. We certainly weren’t the most athletic or the prettiest batch that ever graduated from The University of the Philippines, but we had love of life, a curiosity about life and a sense of humor that was unique.
And maybe that is what this weekend is all about, to rekindle friendship, to renew old acquaintances and to remember again who we are and where we come from. I for once am incredibly proud to be a member of the University of the Philippines, Batch of 2007.
So let us all raise our glass in toast to the Batch of 2007.
those who are here,
those who are not,
and those who have gone before us
Thank you.
I was really grateful for this activity. it made me conquer my fear. And I was also very thankful for the comment that my teacher made. She said that I was a very wholesome speaker and emphatic too. She also said that I just need a little more Projection. I’m hoping to have another activity like this. It surely gave me a new knowledge and a great experience.
