17 December, I went to my goddaughter Alia's school to take pictures of her performing for the school's field day. Her mom (my high school buddy Liza) asked me to attend because the only way they can capture images is through her cell phone's camera and she said her cell phone doesn't really take good pictures. I wasn't doing anything that time, I so went and watched.

The program started around 3PM, and because it's a public school, there were many students, and many parents wanting to watch and take pictures of their kids, too! The school didn't have a big field, so getting all the people organized was a tough thing for the teachers to do. The kids perform twice - on the first full song, nobody's allowed to take pictures yet so that the performance will run smooth. They will repeat the song again and the students would perform for the second time (just half of the song) for the parents to come near their kids and take pictures. What's difficult was that when they perform the second time, the field was already flocked with parents! Good thing I was still able to take some decent shots.

Alia performed twice - first with her kindergarten class, and she performed with the Grade three students, too, because Liza's the adviser of one of the grade three classes. I took quite a lot of pictures, but I will share just one for now, I still haven't edited some of the pictures.

Of course, after the field day I stayed for a while and chatted with my friend.
