cool brods




beta epsilon with their families

husband gelio have this brilliant idea for the longest time and a few weeks ago, it has materialized. he organized a mini get together for his engineering college fraternity, the beta epsilon.  contemporaries, families, partners and even the fraternity sweethearts were invited. attendance reached 87. obviously, it was a success! clap! clap! clap! guests got to enjoy the games, raffle, swimming, badminton, lunch and of course the drinking afterwards. event was held at the al fresco side of the rockwell metro club.

venue is perfect for such private gathering. not too small and not too big. pool and courts are just near each other. shower area is clean too. no hassle, really. club membership really has its perks.

this fraternity, the beta epsilon, i am proud of them. i am happy that gelio is part of it. i have known my husband's fraternity brothers since i met him about ten years ago. before, i thought that being part of a fraternity will just make you look "cool" or be part of the "in" crowd. i don't really know the frat's objectives. but this much i can say. they, if not all then most of them, are a true gentlemen. they treat women especially their wife/daughter/sister/mother with respect and trully makes them feel like a queen. they give help in whichever way they can when somebody is in need whether monetary or materially, a referral for a job, when a brod's car broke down, when a brod had a car accident, when one needs to pass a resume, and even when somebody needs marital advice. they are always there. they live life by enjoying simple pleasures such as playing a sport, or playing bridge or poker, or watching a movie or basketball game, or  serenading a girl, or just playing the guitar or jamming. they can have a good time talking or discussing business over a few bottles of beer. i say of these admirable traits because i myself have witnessed it. i don't know if these are being taught in their fraternity. but they are who they are and we are blessed to have known them. and that's COOL enough for me
