SAHC: the Others

Nandy is the brainiest among us, top of the class. There was some unspoken competition between the two of us but it translated more into boys than grades. LOL. we have been classmates since 3rd grade but we grew closer only during high school. Nandy is a few shades darker than the others, hence the nickname 'Peaches', of the Peaches and Herb 70's african-american singing duo. He wasnt flamboyant at all, nor particularly geeky. but somehow, he didnt have the 'landi' or he expressed it differently.

Gerry, on the other hand, is our melanie marquez. tall, thin.. exuding grace and breeding. he spent grade school elsewhere and became a classmate only in high school. his vivid recollection: he was new in the section and sat beside us. as we were chatting, geometry teacher comes in and introduces himself as our class adviser. adviser asks 'do we have any girls here' (referring to badings). the whole class turns to look at us, and gerry is shocked he naturally gravitated to the birds of the same feather.

cc. nathan. nandy. gerry. we eventually became a core group. but that happened in college. yet i will consider these four to be the closest gay friends i have. (yeah we predate sex and the city AND golden girls. LOL)

but we were a huge group in high school. our last count, easily 10% of the class is gay! next up, you'll meet bet, serg, tanny, jon, vinny, and all the others. then the stories...
