My Brother is a SAGALA! ;)

Well, It's May month once again (actually, it's the third week of may), month of flowers, the last month to go swimming and outing and most of all, the time for little girls and tweeners or sometime the adults to be part of the "Flores de Mayo", "Santacruzan" or more commonly known as the "Sagala".

As a girl, i always dreamed of becoming one of the sagalas. But, as I've said, i'm not the type of girl who always catches the adults attention and  gets well praises of  "Wow, ang ganda naman ng batang yun." I often get the  "Ay yan ba ang panganay mo? a pause then, Ay ang laki na." comment more. awwww. It somehow changed when i grew up, but that's a different blog entry. 

Anyway, my younger sister and brother has a different story though. They became part of the Mr. and Ms. United Nations, parade around the city as the muse and escort of our church organization and so on and so forth. I, as the eldest sister, I play the role of the "Stage ATE".
Last night, my brother was asked to escort in a sagala. When he first broke the news to us, we immediately laughed and made fun of him. We even teased him if we should make ourselves taga-ilaw. haha. But nevertheless, we were very supported of him naman. When the darkness fall, and kwitis (a kind of firecracker used as a sign where the location of the sagala is) were heard and fired up in near places, we were definitely getting excited. We were waiting outside our house only to find out that our street wasn't in the list of  the parade's route. So we walked to the streets where it would be heading. And when we finally saw the sagala, I immediately look for an open spot where i could best see the parade.  As usual, as a stage ate, i took pictures and made them stop for a minute to pose for my camera. haha..

Here are some of the pics i took during the sagala.
