Hello fellas!
School was holiday because of national language month or called Buwan ng wika in filipino.
The month of August marks the National Language Month or Buwan ng Wika in the Philippines. It’s a month-long celebration that aims to increase awareness of the different languages found in the country. It is not just celebrating the Filipino language but rather, appreciating the country’s culture as a whole.
Schools around the country usually celebrate “Buwan ng Wika” by having activities centered around the Filipino Language like performing a Sabayang Pagbigkas (Group Oration); wearing of ethnic tribe costumes,Filipiniana, and Barong Tagalog; preparing and performing various dance numbers featuring the country’s native dances; singing Filipino folk songs and; allotting days to play palarong pambansa (traditional games of the Philippines.)
I also met Ms. Leslie today but all of the teachers had something to do. They had to go to certain place for meeting. So I went back to the hostel but on the way to the hostel, my friends and I went to the canteen to buy food for lunch. I bought “yellow rice” and fried chicken. It just costed 40 pesos. Yellow rice is like fried rice in philippines but actually it tasted like “nasi jagung”.
