My Family Day Experiences

The Family Day celebration of the University of the Philippines High School in Cebu was on the twenty-fifth day of February in the year two-thousand seven. This celebration is celebrated in order to unite every family of every student in the university. During that day, the teachers, the parents and the family and the students were very busy. They were busy in preparing the chairs, preparing the food and decorating the table. As what I have observed, the teachers or the faculty members and the students were very busy in entertaining their guests, family members, friends and other relatives.
During that day, I was so happy and I have lots of experiences. I did have a great and a good time together with my family.
When I arrived at the campus, I have seen that the first year students were already preparing for the dance. When I arrived at the campus, the mass was already done. I was afraid and I was thinking that the dance was already done. When I went inside our classroom, the girls and boys were wearing their costumes already. I got my costume and wore it. After all, the first year students were called by the emcee, Mr. Elmer Montejo to perform their presentation, the “Lapay Bantigue”. The “Lapay Bantigue” is a folk dance that came from Masbate. The next to perform is the “Japanese Dance” that obviously came from Japan. It was followed by the “Rock and Roll” which came from the Asian Countries. The last to present was the “Tarantella” which comes from Italy. The “Lapay Bantigue” was presented by the first year students and the second year boys, the “Japanese Dance” was performed by the girls from the second year students. The next to present was the “Rock and Roll” by the third year students and the “Tarantella” by the fourth year students.
After the presentations, there was a game for the soccer tournament by the Team A of first year and second year students. Well, as usual, the first year students won over the second year students. After the game, all students were called for the lunch. I enjoyed a lot in eating different kinds of food. After the lunch, there were games for the parents. We were so happy because somehow, some of our parents enjoyed. After the game, the raffle draw began. I was so excited. I was shivering. I was always wishing to win. I waited for an hour but unluckily, i did not won. I thought that I am already going to win because my name was called but unfortunately we have different family name. Well, I might be unlucky this time but we do not know someday.
After the raffle draw, we went back to our respective tents. We were very happy and very glad because somehow, we made our family members and other relatives happy. After the raffle draw, the principal told everybody to clean their tents. In cleaning our tent, everybody cooperated. After we clean, I went home.
When I went home, I am very happy because I have different experiences.
