My first interview at Summit was way back in ‘03 when they were still in Pioneer. Though the office resembled an old warehouse back then, it still felt like home to the talented minds who were there from the very beginning. Think no Internet and people sharing computers. From a lone magazine to twenty-five in a decade — the accomplishment is nothing short of amazing.
If there’s one thing sadder than leaving your former office, it’s realizing you need just one more look at it before they start tearing everything down. It was almost 5PM when a former officemate told me they were almost done packing.
Here’s how the office looked last Friday. *sniff*

This other version, though sung by a mainstream local artist, is a pretty good effort IMO.

I’ve said it time and time again and without bias — if and and when I have a kid, I don’t care where he goes to grade school or college, as long as his high school years are spent in the Ateneo.
