GUESSING GAME 9: Who are We??



Note: any responses regarding the Guessing Games, from BCHS-related persons will be entertained, regardless of class, school, age, sex, dialect ... And who are we? Take a wild, wild guess. I think I saved the original photo, which will be published when guessing entries come in. This photo was taken at a Girl Scout picnic in Wright Park. FYI, those pants were called "pedal pushers" at that time, which pedals were being pushed, I just don't know. BTW, I think the pockets are stuffed with small change, tissues, etc. and not Fighter and Posporong Guitara (that was for the boys then).

Here are some clues!

Both these shy young ladies have older brothers who finished their law degrees from the same university: one is associated with John Hay plus the Baguio flower festival; the other, in the Philippine foreign service. These ladies were seatmates/ classmates in
saling-pusa Grade 1, under Mrs. Alcantara, as the school did not have a formal kindergarten class at that time. Each one married non-Filipinos: one comes from the city where Big Ben is located, while the other, the Pyramids. The real, real pyramids, not the Las Vegas faux one. One has two sons and the other, one daughter. One worked in New York, the other in Washington, D.C.

Other clues: This acronym means something to them (hackers, note this: they probably use it as their passwords) LESBCHSUP. One loves Math with a passion, the other does not! Both are West Coast residents. They lived within 174 meters of the then-Mayor of Baguio. Both bought their daily breakfast pan de sal from Sunshine Bakery on Magsaysay Avenue. Their mothers raised prized roses and dahlias. Each had a set of one Ilocano and one Tagalog parent. Any guesses who we are?

The winner will be awarded Summa Cum Laude honors for a day.

And, I thought, I could nail this guessing game #9 with all the clues included.. however, big brother beat me to the punch, he must have been awakened by his loud snoring @4:00AM.
