THIS IS WHAT THE FEELS LOOK LIKE.

Off to a glittering start, the 24th Accountancy Week was indeed the event of the year for Accountancy students in Polytechnic University of the Philippines (PUP).

The event started with the traditional Grand Parade where competing teams vying to be the best team show off the best qualities that represent each of their teams. BRAVE: Scaling New Heights, each team represent birds as a symbol of their group.

BSA 4-11 was part of Team Eagle, dubbed as The King, the mightiest of all and the best.

The Grand Parade ended in the Freedom Park where all Accountancy students huddled around while the balloon flying and lighting of the torch signified the start of the week-long celebration of the Accountancy Week.

I hope we can say much about how surreal and how nostalgic the event was, but on the contrary, it didn't feel much of a celebration to us, we don't know if it's because of the lesser population, or because we didn't participate in the preparation  that much compared to last year, or because we have a lot going on right now that having fun is the least of our priorities or it's just really not fun at all but nevertheless, we still tried to find time to be happy. #Hugot

It's fun to be part of the Grand Parade with your friends for the last time...

It's fun to be out under the scorching sun during the parade for the last time...

It's fun to witness the balloons flying in the sky for the last time...

It's fun to see the furnace of the torch burning for the last time...

It's fun to smile and crack jokes with your friends during the parade for the last time...

and it's fun to be an Accountancy students celebrating Accountancy Week for the last time...

because the next time we celebrate Accountancy Week...

We will be reviewing for the board exam. let's be realistic, we can't be accountants by July 2017 just yet, or if we already are, aba! ang jirbax naman!
