. . . BECAUSE A PHOTO IS WORTH A THOUSAND WORDS

We urge friends who still keep class, group and individual photos to share them with us so that when we meet in December we will ‘be able to match all the names to the owners' faces’ as Chin Choo puts it. Use a scanner to capture these images in jpeg format. Do keep the size small, possibly 400kb or less, and then email them to me. These images can be viewed from an online PHOTO website listed under links on this page. Remember to click on a photo to view a larger image.

Those who already have photos on the web and wish to share them with us can submit the url so that it can be linked to this site.

If you wish to create an online photo website where you can store your photo album, here are a few I would recommend:

Fotopages, Flickr and Photobucket .

Cheers and take care.

WARM WELCOME TO SGGS CLASS OF 1965

Although I’m the host of this blog site, I would like everyone to please regard as your very own. I’ve chosen the gemmed roses to symbolize precious friends; friends with whom we shared a lot in common during our years as students of SGGS.

Although we continue to share our lives with some of these friends after leaving school, there are others we haven’t seen or heard from for forty years. Hopefully we can meet up with these friends at the Reunion Dinner in December. However forty years absence is very long indeed. We may recall a name but cannot put a face to it or we may remember a face but cannot recall the name.

To make this reunion more meaningful, I hope every person who visits this site will use the comment section to write a little bit about yourself. To help others who wish to contact you, please use your maiden name and provide your e-mail address and homepage URL if you have one. If you don’t have a web page yet, then this is the time to create one. If you have news you’d like to share or suggestions on improving this blogsite, please feel free to do so. I also urge the organizing committee members of the coming event to introduce themselves and to announce updates which I will post on this blogsite.

So ladies, if you’ve read this far, hit the keys right away as we’d love to hear from you.
