I’m a wuss. After only four performances, I chickened out and left the Aliw Theatre, where the Aliwan Fiesta 2008 contingents were performing for the judges and the public. In my defense, I barely had an hour of sleep, I was at the Quirino Grandstand by 1:30pm, took photos under the midday sun for an hour or two. Then, when it started raining, we quickly hopped into a cab to take us to Aliw Theater. It was pouring when we got there and neither one of us had an umbrella so we had to dash from the cab and through a huge puddle of water. <\/p>\n

After passing the rain and the time inside Star City, Eric<\/a> and I headed out to the press box, eagerly waiting for the first contingent’s arrival. Because of the sudden downpour, the first performers didn’t arrive until almost three hours later. I was sleep deprived, my clothes are wet and I’m exhausted.<\/p>\n

But I managed to take this short video clip of the Pamulinawen festival’s performance. \ud83d\ude00<\/p>\n
