Remembering Rizal

It's been a month since we watched "Batang Rizal" at the Assumpta Theater. That day was memorable for me because it's also the Election for SAC in which I won. After the announcement of the winners of the election that happened, the students had lunch. When we're finished having lunch somebody announced that all students will line up outside and proceed to their respective jeepnies. The jeepney of III-St. Matthew was provided by Camille and Michael. Our jeepney was pretty awesome because we had great music while we were on our way to the theater.
Then finally we arrived at our destination, the school of Assumption. When we got there, we waited for some hours. There was even a mild accident that happened to Kuya Rolcene and Kuya Uel of IV-St. Joseph but they were given immediate medical assistance.
It was around 2:30 pm when we entered the theater. The whole theater was amazing especially the arrangement of seats. The temperature was cool too so I the whole play we're all comfortable. The lights went of and one of the characters made introduction and gave the reminders. The first part was about an elementary student Pepito. Hes' a naughty kid with a sense of humor. His wicked classmates tricked him. They broke the statue of Jose Rizal and blame it on Pepito. He was scolded by her teacher and he promised to fix it right away. He was wandering on their library when he saw the magical book which brought him to past. That scene was so funny because instead of being confused of what's happening, he worried about his slippers that fell during the time travel. He even shouted "Waaaaah! Tsinelas ko!". That made the whole crowd laughing.
He met Jose Rizal in the past. He was called 'Pepe' by his family and friends. While they were talking Pepito mentioned "weh". Pepe was confused about that. His sisters sang a song which I entitled "The Weh Song". It was really ridiculous.

The whole play made me laugh most but still I learned some things. Pepe portrayed the life of a typical Filipino kid. One message of Pepe was while we are still young we should continue to aim high and reach for our dreams. That day was truly memorable and a happy day for me.
