Sisters and Students

Since we're on the subject of students, there's always an amazing feeling when you get to meet and teach siblings from different years. And in my career as a teacher, I've had several instances when I had this honor and privilege.

Yesterday, I had the honor and privilege of running into 2 of my students - sisters - who I taught 13 years apart.

Nell was my student and thesis advisee in 2001. I remember traveling all the way to Vigan with them to supervise their thesis on "Tahanang Walang Hagdan." Since she graduated 17 years ago, I haven't seen her. Until today.

And I saw her with Marla, her sister, who was under the Advertising program which I coordinated.

Being with both of them in one photo is inexplicably cool!
