9TH BANTAYAN FESTIVAL (opening)

Last week, here in our municipality of Guimbal, which is located at Iloilo province, it is 29 km away from Iloilo City. The 9th Bantayan festival started last April 12, 2011 and it started with a bang! I mean bang is, in the sense of Street Dance Competition. 

Yes! A street dance competition, wherein different tribes from different barangyas participate. Well, as a member of the SK in our barangay it was an obligation to help the dancers in their parade, and us too! has to parade. Then after the parade, the drumbeat competition had happened in that day too. I was sooo impress by the drumbeat, it was soo GOOD! I've always supported the drumbeat, not only the drummers (well, only some of them are cuties) but the fact is that they're really freaking* talented. And when they had staretd my heart just went with the music, it was like it was carrying me through it. Bottom line, I enjoyed it. The Opening ended with the drumbeat competition and I am confident that our tribe will once again be in the top 3! 

After that day, men! I was super tired, but it didn't stop me in watching  the Ms. Bantayan Festvial Queen 2011 later that night. Well, our tribe had a contestant, but in my opinion, gosh! She was a little a bit of a disappointment. 

But you know what it was fine, well at least she did her best, I guess? Anyways, I went home with my mom, 2 cousins and my aunt very depress of the contestant but happy because it was a nice experience. It was like 12 in the morning, the day was tiring but I enjoyed it :) 

And this was juts only the BEGINNING of a long week :)
