Last school year was the best year in my life. I got to enjoy my last high school moments with my bestest friends. In my school we started the school year in a normal way, introducing yourself, discussing of topics for the first quarter, just ordinary. But when 2nd quarter is coming this is where the fun begins. Around the last week of September we are going to celebrate the Founding Anniversary of Bayanihan Institute (my old school) wherein the kiddos and high school students are given the time and chance for them to practice a presentation which is dancing but there was always a different theme every year. We celebrated for 3 days, the first and second day are for booths or it depends to the class adviser if the class will practice on those two day. Me and my friends handled the booths last year there was kiss stamp booth, ml tournaments, dedication booth, jail booth, love chain booth, and more! We enjoyed every moment we had in those past memories, and ofcourse the third day is for the competition of the students the high school students will be competing with each other while the elementary department will be competing with their other levels including the pre-elem. In the competition day our batch became the champions! we were so happy because we really worked hard to be at the very top. While around december, each class will have their christmas party/year-end parties. Each class can have different ways in celebrating, some can propose the idea to watch a movie or maybe the class adviser can organize games for the students. Also we would do exchanging of gifts but we used pen names and te student has to write their wishlist on the paper with their pen name as well. We started 2019 together and will be ending together but better and stronger. As the time goes by new year has passed and we are all getting ready for school again, we’ve missed each other so much that almost all of us went to school very early, and honestly that was really shocking since most of us are late hahaha. The month of January has also its events, which is called “Intramurals” this is the month and event that will make us tired everyday because of non-stop practicing for the cheerleading competition, sports games, board games, and etc. Our intramurals consists of 3 days as well, personally I got all gold medals for all of the sports I participated in and of course I wouldn’t forget that we also made it to the very top again, we were the champions again! Our hard work paid off, we were so nervous because the other teams’ dances were really good but we trusted ourselves that we would do it together, so we made it. Intramurals passes by and the month of February came as we all know it’s Prom, I was so lucky to have my boyfriend as my partner during the dance! I wore this pink ball gown, had makeup on and went to the venue, and when I entered I saw my classmates they were so pretty with there filipinianas! Another highlight on my prom night, my partner bought me a bouquet with my favorite colors with it I was very happy and “kilig kilig” ahihihi. The night passes by, we had the dance it was nice but it was so late so everyone needed to go home. That night my partner and I were planning to go to mcdonalds to eat but his mom was there ready to pick him up so they decided to just drop me off at my home, I was so thankful because we all had a great night! Then here it goes, the last month of being seniors at Bayanihan Institute. I was happy that we were all graduating and no one was left behind but having to think that after everything we would leave each other is very sad. We were all doing the tasks needed to be done, rushed everything and went to the faculty for our clearance to be signed. But everything just happened so fast, it was like a blink of an eye and the finish line is right in front of you. I realized that in the past 4 years of highschool even when we had fights, had misunderstandings, tough moments, tough decisions needed to be made, in the end of the day we were still a family. Families experience ups and downs all the time, but in the end we need to forgive each other. I am honored to be accompanied by my very dearest friends in my high school years, we may have maybe done daring and bad decision together but those decisions made the best memories that we will cherish together as a class. I am super thankful that I met my classmates because they are my family, they are the ones who helped me even if they knew there was nothing in return. My classmates whom I will always remember, the memories that I will cherish forever. Thank you batch 2019-2020, you will always have a part in my heart the memories shall be forever cherished! I miss my classmates so much. Happy trails to all of you, until we meet again! 🤍
