Family Day 2019
Last January 27, 2019, a celebration took place in our school and that was our Family Day. So this how it went with me and my family.

The event started off with a mass but before that, just when my mom and my younger sibling arrived, we took a picture together. Me and two of my other siblings arrived earlier than our mom which is why we had to wait for her. That day, my dad wasn't around because he wasn't feeling so well so he had to stay at home to rest. He's absence on that day was very understood because he really needed some rest since he just arrived in Cebu the day before. I can tell that nothing's better than starting the day with a mass and also taking a picture for remembrance.
This was probably an hour after my arrival. These are my friends, my second family and the people I also spent the day with. On a regular day at school, they are my family or my sisters (chareng) which is like celebrating family day everyday. I was with them the whole day since we were also all in the same grade level which places each one of us under the same tent. I would say, the day is not complete without them.
Dinner time! For us, it's never a day without food. With this, I think a lot of people can relate. I can still remember how most of us were very excited for dinner. In this picture, I'm with my sister, Kylie. I was supposed to take a picture not only with her but also with my mom and my other siblings. I wasn't able to do that since at that time, I couldn't find my mom. I thought that maybe she went home early. Turns out, she was just in my brother's section's tent. Kylie is family so I thought I might just take a picture with her. We didn't really eat together at the same time since she and her batch also have their own food. I was having dinner with my 2nd family, my friends. She just came to sit with me while I was eating. So, even when we had separate dinners, we were still able to bond.
This was a few moments after dinner. It's quite obvious that I still wasn't able to find my mom and my other siblings since they're aren't in the picture. Now that I think about it, they must've stayed in the tent because of all the performances. They really must have enjoyed watching as much as I and others did. Parents and children or students from different levels performed and showed their family talent. Some of them sang with their moms while some were dancing with their siblings. Performances were great. Performers were just excellent. It was definitely a fun and enjoyable way to end the event. What made that night even better was finding out that my mom together with my younger siblings, were still around and found us themselves.
