Nightmare

It was a night of manananggals (even jolibee was made to be one), tikbalang, serena, and of course our very own lantern the bakunawa. The Bakunawa was very much appealing to kids because of its "fishiness". Kids would sometimes shout and call it Nemo, others Stitch because of it being a fish (and nemo is a fish), and it has this blue face with red glowing eyes (like stitch). Two kids actually fought over the resemblance to those characters.
A year ago I would jog (but i mostly do brisk walking) around the academic oval for an hour doing about 3 to 4 rounds but the walk while holding the banner of our lantern and the stop overs for a show-off of the lantern was quite exhausting(aside from the exhaustion from the past days of making that somewhat flying fish).
First time i did go to the lantern parade and actually be included in it. It proved to be a rewarding experience. The cheers and jeers of the crowd will make your heart beat faster and make your adrenaline rise up to your head. The joy of being in the parade can never be compared to a trip to the restroom. It's somewhat more relieving than that. :-)


Here is Nemo... Stitch... whatever.. and the ID Crew
