These are the happenings on our first celebration of the fiesta. I've already shared 1/4 of the memories we had on this day.
Before the day of our fiesta, I verified my tuition fees due to getting an 85% discount because I became a Dean's Lister. I believe the entire first semester costs approximately 16,000 pesos, and with the discount, I only need to pay 4,773 pesos. While it's almost 5,000, it's a big help to me. I told my father that my discount was only 50% due to the expenses we had for our fiesta, so he would think that I only had to pay half. Before our class started in the 2nd year, my father told me that we could split paying my tuition fee, since he knew that I had money to pay for it. I just nodded to him as my answer.
This was the day of our fiesta, and I wore simple makeup with my newly bought fake eyelashes. I look too good, with these, plus the color of blush and lips.
We had an event in our school, and the thing was I couldn't be absent because I'm a representative in our department, and this was the day when the officers from each department were introduced to the new students. It was just appointed by our head, so most of the old students wouldn't know us. It's a great event to show each officer to the students so they will know which officer they would approach if they have inquiries. But I always feel like out of place when I'm with them. I gave my bag to my friend, and she's also the one who took this picture.
Our preparation for our fiesta is in the afternoon; they were just preparing all the things needed in the morning, so it would be easy in the afternoon to cook. While I'm on our campus, I get too excited for our fiesta celebration, and the event will be happening the whole day, but thankfully, the introduction of the officers was in the morning.
But, before this, we had eaten a pancit canton in the school box. I shared with her that its our fiesta and I was inviting her, but it's too far from bogo, plus she lives in Medellín. None of my friends came to our fiesta, but I understand since it was too far.
I was feeling so pretty with this makeup of mine. So I took a selfie with my friend.
After the event ended in the morning, I directly headed to the bus stop and went home, since there were a lot of things to do. My sister was absent in the morning, so for now we switched parts. My father, already seasoned the ground pork, and it's ready to put it in the lumpia wrapper. All of my family members were busy; they had things to do. So I initiate to wrap the lumpia, and it's a lot to wrap plus there are a lot more things to do. But I love having busy days, especially this kind of celebration.
As I arrived at our house, I was greeted by the tarpaulin placed outside our house, it's a sign that we were going to celebrate. Deep inside, I was really happy for how many years.
