This is the where we, the FCO Officers are requested to join to Military Civic Parade, though I don't have money as my pamasahi, I still urge myself to join the parade because our teacher requires as to take some raw footages in relation with the fiesta, and I think that joining the parade wil give me the opportunity to do it. After the Parade, umuwi agad ako, I decided not to watch the annual Band Competition, because I feel so dizzy maybe because of too much heat.

This the most awaited day for everyone, to witness the annual fiesta parade where Padul-ong Festival is celebrated, showcasing different dances, musics and executions offered to us by students, faculty and staff from different schools of the City. During my time we also got the chance to perform at the same spot for the Padul-ong Festival last 2019 before the pandemic, but this year, unfortunately I wasn't able to watch it in person, because of financial problem, (waray iparasahi) but still got the chance to watched it on their Facebook Live from my friends phone.
