MADAYAW, DAVAO!
It was a very unusual experience to see those colorful buntings, costumes and alot of people enjoying themselves, live. Thanks to Girl Scouting, I was able to experience Kadayawan on the streets rather than on TV.
The Cadet Girl Scouts of the Philippines planned 'Libreng tubig galing sa GSP'. We installed a table along the roads which the Parade would take place. It was a very tiring experience because not only would we be soaked under the hot sun, but we were walking and walking and walking... Whew! We were like the contestants and the dancers. But, it was a fun experience.
Naki-indak rin ang 6 cyclemind! They were really walking along the streets. One band member was even holding his camera.

TWO Excruciating Experiences
It came, and it passed. I could not believe that I was giving off my best in two of the most excruciating experiences of my week. As the title suggests, this post is probably one of the tradegies that happend in my life, but it won't be such a long dump of complaints. For when I look back at this, probably on my college days, I will laugh and reminisce those moments.
UPCAT - I could not believe that I had lost at least a million of my brain cells, or neurons... Whatever- in a mere five hours. My only hope is the Languange Proficiency Part in the test, which was about 50 items. The rest of the test, was history. I could not grasp the fact that I lacked in whatever information- nonetheless, I just wish I would pass.
MO. CANDIDA SONG COMPOSITION - In a school called Stella Maris Academy of Davao, probably, the biggest event, next to our graduation, is the Mo. Candida Song Composition. I never knew the reason why winning was such a big deal for a song. Of my four years in singing a Mo. Candida Song, I've never won a single year. It is my last year, and still, I am a last placer. Chrysolite section, my section, a fourth placer. I was dismayed by the result, but I assured myself that I did my best- singing my heart out for my last Mo. Candida Song.
