Velada :)

My tita got me a ticket to watch the Velada.
I was ecstatic to receive a pass to the hall because first, my mom will
be dancing. And second, I’m going to watch the show as if I was in New York,
watching Broadway. I really love seeing musical shows and to think that my mom’s
part of it, made me even more excited.

I was there, sitting with my dad and my two little sisters.
I actually loved my seat; everything in sight was close to being perfect. I’m
not so near the stage and not so far away from it too. The best part, though,
is that I was excused from our last subject! Just so you know, I didn’t plan it
to go this way. But to be honest, I’m happy to be seeing my mom perform and not
be in class for once.

I think I went a little too early inside St.Anne’s Hall.
Why? Because they went for the Filipino time! The Velada started at 3:30 in the
afternoon when it’s supposed to start at 3. Oh well, it was worth the wait
anyway.

The show, all in all, was amazing. I can see how hard they’ve
work for it. Besides my mom, I was really happy to see the old Alumnae (they
were probably the oldest who performed) smiling their faces off as they danced
to the music they’ve picked. I found it somewhat funny, too, but a little
scared for them. They forgot the steps but I saw how they’ve tried remembering
them. Wow, it’s the only thing I could say after the show. It was beautifully
enclosed with a song my classmate, Rose, sung.

The ending was really momentous. If you ask me to rate the
show from 1-10, I’m giving it an 11. Not because I think it was very, very
amusing. But because the sky’s the limit, and so was the fun the show has
Now I am proud to say that I belong to the Assumption
Community. All hail, Assumption!
