This is my first in-person FilNight here at UW and it's something that I've been anticipating since the beginning of the school year. I wanted this night to be super special for the Filipino Community here in Seattle where we could gather and enjoy the evening by being entertained. My passion for showcasing our kultura and our barkada that has been working so hard for this night are the reasons why I am super immersed in this night. A special shoutout to Sayaw sa UW: you guys are the biggest reason why I love performing because not only do I get to showcase our kultura with you guys, I get to see how far we become as a barkada. You guys make me proud of being Filipino.
