This will be Raine’s 3rd year and hopefully the last year in pre-school. The first year was he didn’t even make it to the first semester. The next year (2007), he made it through the whole school year.

This year he is supposedly in prep — preparatory for the first grade.

In the last two years we have been recycling his katipunero outfit for the program. This time we might have to get a more formal Filipino traditional costume like the barong. Well what is pinoy traditional costume anyway? He he. It isn’t as if I’m looking for a tactical gear. I may have to opt for something that looks like a barong but a tone-down version, nothing too formal.

This time Raine would be singing part of the bicol song ’sarong banggi’ (or is that sarong bangui?!). My written bicol is just horrible.

The teacher said to memorize. Raine didn’t want to memorize the stanza because he doesn’t understand what that means. I translated. Now the thing was memorized. 9 days to go…i hope stage fright wouldn’t get the best of him. ;-)
