Last American Virgin From eBay

I’m very happy that I finally received my DVD copy of The Last American Virgin. this afternoon. To others, this movie maybe just an ordinary movie but for me, it brings back some of the teenage memories. Sometimes, its healthy reminiscin’ the old days. Did you know that I searched for this movie to almost all the VCD/DVD outlets in almost all the mall I know? And now that I have my paypal money, this is the first thing I’ve purchased from eBay. Take note that I received my DVD a week earlier than expected.

It was the first rated R, 80′s movie (betamax copy… LOL) that my father recommended me and my teenage friends to watch. I was 13 years old then, in high school. Actually, I am hitting two birds with one stone on purchasing this DVD. First, I promised this movie to my teenagers four years ago. Although, it was overdue, I don’t want to broke my promise. Second, its a memorabilia for me. I’m planning to make a couple of copies to give to my friends as Christmas gift. Barat ba? LOL! Well, its the thought that counts and we have a deal that whoever gets the copy first will give copies to others. Also that there’s no available copy in the Philippines. I’m sure, my bestfriend will truly love it, I already imagined her face when she’ll receive her copy.

This weekend, I’m inviting a couple of my son’s friends at home… prepare some food for them for a little film showing. I’m really excited. The movie have some naughty and sexy scenes but the most important things are the lessons they will learn on the responsibility of being a teenager. I recommended this movie before to some parents (of teenagers) asking for movie I know suited for teenage life.

The movie run time is 1 hour, 33 minutes, released in 1982. The music background includes Just Once, Open Arms, Oh No, The Cars, U2, The Police and many more. Few months ago, I’ve compiled the soundtrack music of this movie and gave it to my bestfriend. She said, when she feels down she just play the CD to lighten up her mood.

CEU High School Paranaque Mini Reunion

The picture speaks a thousand faces, bring out the memories of high school life… my teenage life. Meeting some of my schoolmates and classmates is almost impossible since our school was “erased” in Paranaque City two years after I graduated from high school.

What school? Centro Escolar University (Paranaque), it didn’t exist now, the place where it was located before is now townhouses. I believe CEU had a lease contract to that location and it expired. Its too sad at that time that even teachers were wearing black shirts as protest. There was nothing we can do, we are only students. And we are really sad… imagine, we didn’t have school to visit now and perhaps see what happened to our teachers. Our batch is planning for a Christmas party after Christmas, if I get lucky enough with my schedule I’ll try to attend the gathering… see the old faces that I used to know during high school days. See you soon to our grand reunion next year!
