10. What better place to get stranded in should another typhoon hit. "Honey, I'm stranded at this party with all my high school friends."

9. To find out just how many Xaverians DID end up with ICAns for wives.

8. See all your successful brethren, network and make it a point to let them know that even if you weren't the founder of some multi-national call-center business and drive a Land Rover at your summer home in Monterey, California, you're still happy.

7. For every alumnus who shows up, P600 will be donated to the school so that poor but otherwise talented kids can study at Xavier. And no, you won't be the one donating it. In fact, admission is not Php 2000 but a measly 300 bucks – for dinner, show and a Toyota Vios raffle. That's worth, like what? Two Grande Fraps?

6. Because no matter how much of a big shot you are, the rest of your batchmates will still talk about you and the time you had too much beer at the Acquaintance Party if you don't show up.

5. To verify if it was your classmate who appeared in that scandal VCD.

4. Because let's face it, most of you were just going to stay home, open a bag of chips, and watch TV all night anyway. Attend the homecoming, get the first bite of Krispy Kreme in Manila (yes, we’re giving them away!), and watch the likes of Barbie Almalbis, Itchyworms, Orange and Lemons, Parokya ni Edgar, and the APO Hiking Society instead.

3. Nobody is going to believe you weren't there because you had a date with Angelica Panganiban. (In case you really do have a date with Angelica Panganiban, we suggest you bring her.)

2. Stronger odds of finally meeting the famous Edgar Allan Pe.

1. San Miguel Beer.
