We're at an Airborne Access hotspot. We called Felisa at California, USA.

We got the email address of Felisa's daughter. We'll send other Imeldist info so Felisa can help widen the network. Hope mom and Felisa can start exchanging e-mails.

Ah, The Lola Friendster experiment is working! :D

Google searching

keyword search:

dagupan alumni
dagupan alumni 1957
dagupan alumni 1950's
dagupan high school 1957
dominican dagupan

http://ds88.awardspace.com/ - alumni from a different generation
Alumni.Net registry - I'm sure I've visited this before. Registered on mom's behalf. Maybe I'll get some leads from there.
http://ds82.net/
Names Database for Dominican School in Dagupan City -- will pursue this lead next time

Milagros Capio, Class of 1961
Jovelyn U Hamada (Uriarte), Class of 1968
Edilberto Sanchez (Mogan), Class of 1972
Will look for surnames that match the 1957 Imeldist's surnames, they might be relatives.

That's it for now. Sent emails to some of the contacts I found.

Renewing my search

2006-03-29T00:27:00.000-08:00

I'm renewing my attempt to find my mom's classmates.

Today, I sent emails to contacts I found on the web. I also posted messages on some forums. Hope they can lead me to Pangasinan organizations who might have contact with the Imeldists.

Can you refer me to groups (federations/organizations) that may have contacts with Alumni of Blessed Imelda's Academy Class of 1957 (Dagupan, Philippines)?

I am helping my mother find these classmates. See here: http://imeldist1957.blogspot.com/ .

By the way, I found my way to the blog of Vice Mayor Alvin Fernandez. http://vmalvinfernandez.blogspot.com/ There's one person who we expect to have many contacts.

Let's see if there's any response to my emails and forum posts.

The Plan

2005-06-23T06:32:00.000-07:00

Because my mother's class was all girls, most of the names I have are maiden names. This will be a challenge when I search for classmates.

1.) Google search each name
2.) Search for Netizens in Dagupan with same last surnames - they might be relatives of the Imeldists of 1957
3.) Contact Domincan School
4.) Make a list on Alumni.Net

That's it so far. What other strategies can I use to find the Imeldists?

Edwin

The Crusade

2005-06-22T21:37:00.000-07:00

Over the past couple of years, I have been trying to teach my mother to use e-mail. Since she's in Baguio while I'm in Manila, I don't get the chance to coach her for long periods. She easily gets tired staring at the monitor so I get to coach her just around half an hour when I'm in Baguio. And that's not very often.

Long story short: I've been trying to find ways to motivate her to e-mail more often so she gets used to it.

And finally, she found one good motivation: To write her long lost elementary classmates.

Thus, this blog which aims to find her classmates and get in touch with them through e-mail. And then later, maybe even through skype or yahoo messenger! (?)

Let's see how it will go.

Goodluck to us, Mom!
