All I can say is that. "The whole day is full of Artistry, love of the language and full of Lies." Well I can't always state only the positive parts. Sometimes I need to say the PAINFUL negative. I did not say that quotation to discriminate. I just want to state my opinion. Because every single thing most of the contestants of the Extemporaneous speaking have said are just so freakin' idealistic. Well there is one that really appealed to me (the representative of the CITHM if I'm not mistaken) because she knows how to manipulate her words and she didn't choose any side between Filipino and English. But the others, I really find it hard to believe. Why in the love of all that is human did one of the contestants discriminate the usage of English in transactions with others(local or international). Well If I can go up there I'll tell her "Because girl, some of them don't really know how to speak our language. They rely on the universal one. And the fact that it is impolite to talk to others in a language they do not understand(and they might think we are bad mouthing them, it may lead to a unsuccessful deal)." And why the hell did one of them asked why do the Filipino workers have to work abroad? Well, use commonsense it's not the persons fault, It also brings pain and shame to the man or woman cause he or she is not doing his or her thing for his or her country for the sake of his or her starving family. For a while while listening to speeches with the same flow I actually thought "Hey if I saw you guys in abroad someday, get ready for an awesome trash talk."(but I won't do that. I respect their opinions. and I won't even remember their faces anyway.) I also can't understand some speech of other contestants, but I think there are some good or rather well said speeches.
Now lets move on to the real topic shall we. What did I and my classmates did for the celebration. Well we made a booth about classic filipino movies. By the way almost all of our decors are hand made. even the c.d holders the only decoration not made by us are the curtains, but we are the ones who shaped it by using thumb tacks and pins.
I really like the singer who performed two classic opm songs, she have a great vocal power and control. I also like the dance performances. but for me the highlight of the day is The pageant. I like the outfits the candidates worn. The filipiniana outfits of the girls really are remarkable. some are over the top some are a little bit ordinary but still good. My favorite outfit was the outfit of the CCS representative(if I'm not mistaken) the violet backless crisscross strap gown. It is not too much not too less. my second favorite is the white one with pink details. Very simple design but a little too large skirt, while in the boys side, there is one who dared to wear an ethnic costume(shocking really, and it's such a cold day I tought "Isn't he feeling cold in that outfit?")
All and all it's been a good day. And please, I do not want to discriminate or be bias to anyone. I'm just stating my opnion. I don't want to offend others and I do not want to hurt others.
