Today's visit in the market is kinda different, it's fun and seeing the kids on that parade made me remember my time as one of the "student" that attends different kinds of event in school. That's the time that i'm most excited because it's "fun time" and no "study time." Like i'm just a kid who enjoyed playing in that moment of my teens so of course i'm happy when there's no classes. Lol.
Anyways, it's supposed to be just a normal day, that one typical day without any "ganap." We're going to the market but had to stop by in the pharmacy first. Mama noticed the sandwich the pharmacy's selling so she asked for the price of it. One cost 30 pesos or $0.52. The bread they used in there I think is that whole wheat bread. It has ham and cheese I think with that white sauce, I think its mayo. It's half of the bread and It's 30. Looks masarap but our poor selves just can't buy it. Lol. Saduuuu
After stopping by in the pharmacy, we then took this route to get to the market. And that's when I saw an ongoing parade. I'm not sure yet what kind of event this school is celebrating but my guess is it is their Foundation Day. And I was right.
It is already their 74th Founding Anniversary, I think Bansud Institute is a private school. I didn't attend my high school in that school even though it's just a minute walk from home. I went to public school which is 10 minutes walk from home, or maybe more. It's a long walk but I enjoy those walk because I get to walk with my other classmates. There are times that if I have some money, we'll ride in a tricycle together with my classmates and those are really unforgettable moments for me.
And so, they are planning to parade in the market, this is also what we did back then. The only problem you'll face here is the heat. But actually, they are luckier because they don't have to walk longer. While our school was on the other barangay, we have to walk from there to the town center and parade in circle until we go back to the school. Its maybe exhausting but still fun. Ehe
We arrived in the market and look how every people there are watching, yes, the fish and meat sellers are also watching. As for us we only watched a few minutes then proceed buying all the things we need.

And that's not the end because there's another parade in the afternoon. It's a parade from different school in the whole province of Mindoro. I couldn't see the banner of what kind of event it is though. This is the perk of living near highway coz they will always take this way to parade.
This one is a long parade, some had drum and lyres and it's a mixed of elementary and high school I think. Some are in costume as well. ♪┌|∵|┘♪
And so yeah, this quick visit to the market is really fun. I also reminisce a bit because of it. It's just so good to look back on those moments with a happy heart. And I kinda miss it, my friends and ganapan at the back of our school after the tiring events, the fun games, the joke time and the love talk moments. I have a lot of those during that time. I'm not the storyteller though but my friends (._.)ﾉ.
