OUR LITTLE CORNERS: Star Lantern

Here comes the high light of the Parade. Bangenge are like giant mascots. They are purely made out of used papers. The Bangenge parade is open for all who is interested to participate. Here are the Bangenge entries for this year's Lantern Parade.

A dragon?

Tinkerbell is the best Bangenge for me... It was neatly done and it's very cute too..

An alien i guess.... Just don't know where anime this character came from..

It's Pong Pagong (Pong the Turtle), the main character from the Philippine adaptation of Sesame's Street

We first thought that this is Pikachu from Pokemon but according to these kids.. it was actually a Koala bear..

Four Arms from Ben 10

Cute Little Spongebob..

Cloud Strife from Final Fantasy

Doraemon

Spider Man

I love this one too... it's Monkey D Luppy from anime One Piece

Cactus From Plants Versus Zombies

Alien from Ben 10

Cockroach from the cartoon Ogie and the Cockroaches..

This is the part two of my Lantern Parade post. We're done with the Rabbit, now let's head to the Star Lanterns. High school presentation wasn't that nice compare to what elementary students did. It seems that they didn't put some efforts for the parade. Unlike when i was in high school, my batch did some cool presentation. There's also a Giant Lantern Parade where in all high school students from different school should present a giant lantern made out of recycled material. As far as i remember, we make use of the empty sea shells to make a giant lantern. Anyway, i took some photos of this year's Star Lantern parade.

Representatives from Cavite National High school. Simple transparent lantern with some glossy metallic papers hanging on them.

Students from Saint Joseph had a creative presentation of their lantern. They make use of Poinsettia and place it on the center of their lantern and then they put some garlands around it.
