Alumni Stories

"There you go again. Letting your head get the better of you." Becca's eyes shot to his. "You can't hold back like that, not if you want it to feel real." Her cheeks felt like they were on fire. Yes, she'd stopped. She knew. But he spoke like it was so simple, like she was just some amateur afraid of the stage. He had no clue what this felt like, that it wasn't the scene that made her chest tight. It was looking at him. She put a full foot of distance between them. "I know how to act, Boris!" He stood there, unmoved. "Then show me." Her nails dug into her palms. No. She wasn't going to let him break her. She pulled her shoulders back, took a breath, and planted her feet. "Fine," she bit out. "This time...I'll finish it." ⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒ When Becca Morgan walked through the doors of her old high school, she never expected to get pulled back into the world of theater. She also didn't expect Boris an intense and incredibly talented 18-year-old senior who gets under her skin. A single rehearsal is all it takes for things to get complicated, blurring the lines between the roles they're playing and the people they're becoming. 🎭 𝕀𝕤 𝕚𝕥 𝕙𝕚𝕞 𝕀'𝕞 𝕕𝕣𝕒𝕨𝕟 𝕥𝕠...𝕠𝕣 𝕥𝕙𝕖 𝕘𝕚𝕣𝕝 𝕀 𝕦𝕤𝕖𝕕 𝕥𝕠 𝕓𝕖, 𝕞𝕚𝕣𝕣𝕠𝕣𝕖𝕕 𝕚𝕟 𝕙𝕚𝕞?

Our journey to develop Alumnly, an alumni networking platform solution for education providers, started in 2014 when due to the rise in social media platforms in Australia our clients started to enquire about developing alumni sites to cater for their alumni community. During 2016 these enquiries grew and we started adding functionalities and features to their site pages and managing their social media accounts, however, these came with many other challenges and did not provide a proper solution to them. Visit Us : https://alumnly.com/ In 2019, we started discussing with education providers about developing an all-in-one alumni networking solution. After many months of consulting, we finalize the project scope for Alumnly. In 2022, we proudly launched Alumnly as a software-as-a-service platform with an aim to deliver an all-in-one alumni networking and management solution to the education providers at an affordable cost. This is why we have simple pricing options to suit every school, college, university and organization needs.

A story about friendship and love.

Siempre me creí diferente. Quizá por eso acepté ser delegada de curso, la voz oficial del 7mo ciclo de Derecho, la que debía mantener la calma, mostrar compostura. Pero nada de eso me salvó de él. El Dr. Adrián Fuentes, dueño de la asignatura más temida - Obligaciones - entró al aula para romper todas las reglas que yo creía conocer. Con su presencia desbordante, mirada firme y una voz capaz de derribar cualquier defensa, se volvió imposible de ignorar. Yo no sabía lo que esperaba de ese nuevo semestre. Él tampoco sabía lo que estaba a punto de desencadenar. Éramos solo profesor y alumna. Eso decía la lógica. Eso decía la ley. Pero el deseo, la curiosidad y el silencio hablan más fuerte que cualquier norma escrita. Entre responsabilidades, expectativas y la necesidad de sentirme vista, fui abriendo puertas que jamás imaginé. Y aunque mis amigas advirtieron señales que yo elegí ignorar... cada paso hacia él parecía inevitable. Porque hay relaciones que comienzan con una mirada. Pero hay historias que terminan con ella. Porque cuando la validación se confunde con amor... el abismo se abre sin que uno lo note. Y yo caí. HISTORIA INSPIRADA EN HECHOS REALES

Una historia de amor,locura y decepción de una pareja llena de sueños y locuras por recorrer el mundo y que ninguno de los dos falle en su mayor logro que es estar siempre juntos y no fallarse ni uno al otro

I have galaxies in my heart and I will love you until the stars burn out. Samson Mikael Del Rosario broke up with the love of his life when they were in the last year of their course - education. He broke up with her for some reason, 'yun lamang ang tanging naisip niya upang matupad nila ang kanilang mga pangarap nila na hindi pwedeng tupatin ng magkasama. Pupunta ang babaeng mahal niya sa ibang bansa upang doon ipagpatuloy ang buhay and he had no other choice but to let her go dahil alam niyang hindi niya kakayanin ang long distance relationship. When Delilah came back with the feelings for Samson still buried deep down in her heart - magagawa niya bang bumalik pa kay Samson o tuluyan na lamang kalimutan ang binata kahit sariwa pa ang sugat ng nakaraan? Lalo na ngayon at hindi niya alam kung tatanggapin pa ba siya nito dahil hindi na lang rin ang sarili niya ang kanyang dala. Kung hindi pati na rin ang bunga ng kanyang mga desisyon noong dalaga pa siya. | cover by: @wishtobefairy
