It’s May 26, 2034, and the class of 2024 is all back at Loretto for their high school reunion.
The former leadership girls have been busy all morning setting up for the reunion when the senior chat is sparked up again by a message from Kiara Fuentes asking when the reunion will be.
Even 10 years later, she is still confused about all of the events going on with the class of 2024 but she only got there half an hour late, which for anyone who had her first period knows for her, that is early.
The first people to arrive are Mia Montelongo and Bella Herrera, they have been setting up the event all morning and reminiscing on their high school time.
During the reunion, Mia kept asking people if they were having fun and if there was anything she could help them with.
Most of the reunion Bella spent talking with Anya Fuentes, as they both work with kids, in Speech Pathology and Special Education, they had a lot of catching up to do.
When she wasn’t talking about her career, Anya’s laugh was heard all throughout the gym.
The tables are beautifully decorated with flower centerpieces that Pamela Gomez provided from her flower shop.
There is a whole menu to choose from Ana Orozco’s luxury restaurant.
She works at her restaurant during the day, and as a surgeon at night, she still does it all.
The playlist for the reunion was made by Christiane Tapia, who is now working her dream job in the United Nations.
Martina Cantu works along with Chris in the UN, representing women in sports, they are always seen on TV.
Everyone turned their heads to the door when Rebeca Legarreta walked in with roaring happiness.
She was delighted to see everyone again, but she wasn’t the only one excited.
Angelica Castorena was so excited to be at the reunion and didn’t sit down for its entirety.
She was always at people’s tables, talking with everyone as she never lost touch with anyone in the class of 2024.
She spent her fair share of time as a student helping her classmates understand the lessons but now, she is getting paid for it.
Angelica returned to Loretto to be the high school English teacher and is now Natalia Batista’s coworker.
Natalia started teaching ballet at Loretto and opened a new club.
As people were trickling in, it was so exciting to see where everyone had been all these years and all the things we have in common now that so much time has passed.
Dariela Abbud and Bella Candia were once on the volleyball team together but now, their love of reading has bonded them and has prompted them to start their own books club!
Dariela still cries at the end of every book and Bella will still share a not-so-brief recap of the books with anyone who is willing to listen.
When we were seniors, she would share the recaps with Mr. Sanchez but 10 years later, she tells someone who she briefly believed to be Mr. Sanchez
Madison Aguirre is known for her realistic and clever Halloween costumes from our days at Loretto but her costume at the reunion takes the cake.
She dressed up as Mr. Sanchez so realistically that everyone mistook her for him.
Barbara Urias, who was Mr. Sanchez’s #1 fan, ran towards him to be the first to say hello but, in Barbara’s fashion, ended up fully falling while on her way.
The fall was slow and painful, ending with her knocking her head on the ground.
Sophia Merjil, Clarissa Ruiz, and Faith Spade all ran to her as they are now fully certified neurologists and assessed her condition.
Clarissa ran especially fast because she developed the best running shoes for track athletes.
She developed this technology with Monse Medina, who continued being as active as she was in high school, used her psychology degree to invest in the psychology of sports, and made a brand that helped boost athletes’ performance.
While still on the floor from her fall, Barbara assured them that their tests weren’t necessary but the longer she stayed on the floor, the more people came to check on her.
Even Mia Urias and Monica Annabi came to check on her and lend their dentistry expertise and make sure she didn’t chip a tooth.
Although, they didn’t give much advice and ended up just laughing and joking around instead.
Monica and Barbara remain friends and even live in San Diego together, with her business degree, Barbara is helping Monica open and run her own dental practice.
Victoria Ramirez enters the venue wearing her designer sunglasses, and she shows up with confidence as a rich mom and nurse.
Mia Urias isn’t just a dentist though, she is also a viral tiktoker who is known for her funny videos and dance trends.
Julianna Gonzalez didn’t just help organize the reunion, she helped people get organized online.
Her viral “Get ready with me” and lifestyle videos are a huge inspiration to so many people to get their lives organized and aesthetic.
Even Juliana Peraza became TikTok famous for keeping it chill, still griddying even though the trend is 10 years old, and sharing her super secret salad recipes that she has made as a nutritionist.
Even Alix Prieto has gone viral for her product reviews and even started a makeup brand with Alix Earle called “Alix²’
Emma Issac is seen wearing her ski suit (which she never takes off), she must be confusing Aspen and El Paso because it is hot outside!
Flying in from Austin together, Mia Bolivar, Itzel Rios, and Marina Cepeda all show us how Loretto women can take over the business world.
Mimi is now doing international business and taking the world by storm.
Itzel is the top business administrator on top of being a mom of 3 and she looks great doing it.
Marina Cepeda graduated UT in marketing and is now the head of the marketing department for her alma mater.
Emily Aguilar talks to her friends about the 12 Lana Del Rey concerts she’s attended throughout the past decade and she shares her strong opinions about the shift in pop culture present in the 2030s.
Paulina Garcia showcases her poise at the reunion, and shares about the way her Florida man hubby, a crocodile wrangler, compliments her psychologist self and her calm nature.
She is expected to move to Florida three months after the reunion takes place.
Speaking of Florida, Leila Morales, a graduate of Jacksonville University, attends the reunion and fills in for Freddy because of her shooting skills, as he is newly retired.
Accompanying Leila are Iriany Hermosillo, Isela Iglesias, and Maria Nava.
Maria as expected is working hard behind the scenes at the reunion, managing lights, music, and overall making the event extra special for her sisters.
.
Isela and Iriany are unfortunately still recovering from their high school injuries as they each show up with a boot, however, their successes in their career path bring more light than their injuries.
Because they were still in boots, however, they were the first of many people Valeria Lopez gave a hug to.
Valeria made sure to hug everyone, at least twice, and brought a sense of love and a nurturing spirit to the reunion.
She shows up with Clarissa Ruiz and Diana Maldonado, and the trio arrives only 30 minutes late.
Diana is wearing a pantsuit in her signature color black, and her perfect eyeliner is still very much intact, almost as if it were tattooed on by Triniti Griffin.
Triniti Griffin is an elementary school art teacher by day, and a tattoo artist by night.
One thing remains constant though; she is still the coolest person in the room.
All of a sudden, there is a loud noise and everyone looks outside to see that Fernanda Escobedo has lived out her dream of becoming a pilot.
And naturally, she was ecstatic that she could finally come to school in leggings and not get in trouble.
But Fer wasn’t the only person who flew into the reunion. Sofia Chiu’s love of cars hasn’t faded as she flew in on a flying car.
She is the first to have one in El Paso but her flight wouldn’t be complete without her favorite passenger princess, Dani Nava.
Another duet that has been stuck at the hip since high school is Paulina Cavazos and Alondra Gutierez.
They have been roommates for 10 years and they go nowhere without each other.
The two of them are still the unexpected comedic duo, and cause a lot of laughter throughout the reunion.
Sophie Ryan came to the reunion but it isn’t the first time we have seen her since graduation, along with being a pediatrician, she is a hair model for Pantene.
Her senior superlative of having the best hair really did come true.
Our New York crowd stuck together at the reunion as they became much closer friends while in the city together.
Camila Quevedo and MJ Fuentes are still best friends, they sit together and chat about their lives.
Mj is now a famous actress and the senior chant is on repeat thanks to Mj, who still has the most school spirit.
Camila works at Vogue as a Co Editor-in-chief, alongside Carolina Terrazas, and both of their fashion expertise make for a powerhouse duo.
Mj is now a famous actress starring in everything between blockbuster movies and Broadway.
The senior chant is on repeat thanks to MJ, who still has the most school spirit.
Camila Fernandez also joined the table as she is now a Victoria’s Secret model and is married to a pro soccer player.
Mariana Medrano, who is the CFO of American Express, sits next to Camila to discuss her new contract.
Dani Dillon had more fun on her abroad trip freshman year of college than most of us have these last 10 years.
She even managed to find herself a super cute Italian boyfriend who she convinced to come back to Baylor with her.
They are now living happily ever after.
Even with her busy schedule as a pathologist Maria Jose Garcia managed to come to the reunion and catch up with everyone.
Juliana Espinosa is now selling the most expensive mansions in the US as she is the top real estate agent in the nation.
She is great at the business side of the job but her humor and people skills are really what help her seal the deal.
Even 10 years later, Valeria Portillo is still the life of the party but she is the head of a mechanical engineering company so Vale is still the perfect example of living a balanced life.
Valeria Felix shows up to the reunion with her classic Dutch bros cup, when everyone thinks back, everyone realizes we’ve never seen her without it!
Sofia Valverde always gave out a helping hand while we were at school but now she does that for a living.
She studied biological engineering at UTEP and now makes prosthetics, she is literally giving a helping hand!
Daniela Rodriguez, Jocelyn Rodriguez, and Jimena Huizar have worked alongside many of their peers as they are both social and run a business enterprise together, while still having the best nails in town.
They’ve helped promote both Alessandra Villar’s and Vanessa Olivas’ cosmetic lines throughout the years.
As part of the reunion gift, everyone in the class of 2024 received PR packages from Vanessa and Alessandra.
The reunion wouldn’t be a reunion without the live entertainment provided by Abigail Silvas’ singing, and Ivanna Hernandez’ Young Miko impersonation services.
Daphnney Gomez takes pictures of not only their performances but the entire reunion as well.
After the live entertainment, she takes a picture of Alejandra Ramirez, Jimena Huizar, Roberta Iñarritu, and Jocelyn Rodriguez, a group that remained as united and close as they were in high school.
The four have traveled together and worked for organizations that have helped shape their communities through agriculture, and business.
As far as friends that have stayed together go, Madison Hernandez and Kaitlyn Navarro are still the dynamic rule breakers we know and love, and they made the reunion even more special by bringing local bands(GOOF3D 24) and animals they found on the street.
The “show” wouldn’t be complete without vendors, so Kait and Madi contact Alexandra Moncada (also put in charge of writing the invitations with her founding father’s handwriting) and Maria Aldana who both own bakeries on the side of their primary jobs.
As everyone gets up to get treats, Maria takes the opportunity to talk about how much sports has impacted her life as the CEO of ESPN.
Paula Andrea Hernandez, world-renowned cartoonist brings her tablets and draws everyone while she converses with Ruthanne Brown.
Ruthanne is still fascinated by chartreuse sweaters and wears one for the event that she pulls off like no one else.
The Secret Service enters the reunion as Andrea Avila, president of the United States, has arrived.
President Avila slays.
By her side is her political advisor Amelie Juarez, and lawyer Helen De La Rosa.
Similarly to Amelie, Carolina Herrera and Amelia Wardy become published authors and the three distribute signed copies of their books.
Catherine Torres and Hannah Aveitia arrived really late but this time it is because they were attending to their patients all day.
Caroline Machado also arrived late as she was swimming in the Bahamas the day before and couldn’t catch an earlier flight.
Valeria Sanchez and Mariana Orozco deliver the best Instagram stories and posts about the reunion as it comes to an end, and their pictures are aesthetic representations of our unity.
As the night comes to an end the room becomes blurry and with no explanation.
As Mara Escobar adjusts her eyes she realizes that the entire reunion was a dream she had a week before the actual reunion.
As a screenwriter, she uses this for inspiration to write 24+10, a movie about 82 women having their tenth reunion, and critics deem it the funniest and most heart-warming movie of the year.
24+10, till we meet again.
