and super saya pa ng UPCLAS semender...wee! new mems! swimming!
by summer, the usual family outing sa Laguna...
YCLP (Youth Christian Life Program) where i earned new friends and new perspectives :D
and of course, ang OJT sa Polygon together with Faith i would always remember...ang babait ng Polygon Family...and the numerous site visits was super fun! plus, ang helpful lectures ni sir arce ay di malilimutan, hehehe...
and together with the work experience comes the Friday night outs with dear classmates...Metrowalk, Gateway, Glorietta, Trinoma...

O-Seven was the year when trinoma opened...kaya ang dami kong experience jan. Faith and I were at the opening day kasi Polygon's one of the contractors...

anyway...4th year college is both fun and super hard. FUN kasi naging closer kami ng batchmates/classmates ko. HARD dahil ng pressure ng thesis! huhu...

moving on, starting AY 07-08, ang UPCLAS ay nagpauso ng jumpy vid shoot at photoshoot for the college assembly video presentation...

oh i almost forgot...di nako nagdorm...so i miss my dormmates very much, huhu.oh the dorm life. pero i got to spend fun times with my cousins naman...since dun nako sakinla sa tandang sora nakikitira hehe...
AH! jogging...hehehe...napasubo kami sa pagyaya ni ina na magjogging...it was a tuesday-friday thing...WAS kasi di na natuloy after sem break, hehehe...nabusy na masyado...

and speaking of enok...im super proud nung nanalo sila sa first ICPC...seventh place wasn't all bad...top ten means a lot noh.
on the other hand, 2007 is also a special year for my family and i. ang FAMILY ENCOUNTER no.3 ay never naming makakalimutan...it made my family stronger than ever :D
but of course, di lahat ay masaya...we lost a well-loved family member, so very close to our hearts, lola Ebo...but she's in heaven now and that's a good thing...nakakamiss lang talaga...
hay...pero dahil bawal ang malungkot...grad pictorial! mga kalokohan sa studio, international drama, wig frenzy, super late lunch...etc!
and thou shall not forget the papaya dance! too bad we didn't win the 20k.blah.it was fun anyway ;p

dumaan na ang pasko...at malapit na New Year! ilang oras nalang...so
from my family to yours,

HAPPY NEW YEAR! God Bless!

no turning back

i am now a nocturnal animal.
i drink coffee at night (or eat apples, because sabi ng sister ko may caffeine din daw yun).
i work pag tulog na ang mga tao...kasi pag gising ang pamilya ko, nagyaya sila mag dvd (which is really hard to resist...ahw).
tulog ako sa umaga. i eat 2 meals a day heavy brunch and dinner, optional ang merienda at midnight snack.
my bedtime falls around 4:30 to 5:30-ish.
madalas ko tuloy naiisip kung bakit nga ba ako nag-arki?
huwah! totoo nga ata na when you're nearly done with whatever, it's also when you begin to be bored with it, your mind's easily distracted...ngayon ko palang naiisip na parang gusto ko magshift to fine arts talaga.ahuhu.
well anyway, pag hindi naman ako successful sa pagiging LA eh nahasa nako sa graveyard shift, pwedeng pwede sa call center! hahaha..

kidding (and pessimistic thoughts) aside, i keep telling myself this will all end soon, basta ba i'm right on track. i try not to be pressured with social and environmental conditions (hmph)...ang hirap pero kailangan kayanin. THERE IS NO TURNING BACK. ayoko maging loser and disappoint my loved ones just because i THINK i can't do "it" and i pity myself too much. ergo (line ni conrad..hehe), i should KEEP MOVING FORWARD (inspired by the disney pixar cartoon Meet the Robinsons, ahehehe)...huhu, ang dami kong iniisip simultaneously (PI100, Lighting, LA146 project), when i should be focused.hay...STAY FOCUSED! but of course, i give myself a break nce in a while, like eating dessert and junk, text twist for a while, and ocassional naps, hihi...

madam cathe has invited me to their dear home for this coming cram month of January. i'd really like that...pero lalambingin ko muna ang nanay ko, hahaha...

i know i can do this.
thank you dear blog dahil nailabas ko ang rants and emotional whatevers ko.
thank you enok and JL and itay dahil pumayag silang maging lil helpers ko sa thesis, hahaha, humanda kayo...
thank you Lord for the health and strength para magawa ko tong thesis ko.
well, break's over...CADding shall resume.
bai!

PS. if you're a thesismate o' mine, kaya mo yan.kaya natin toh, hahaha.! GOODLUCK!

Quotable quote (Jack)

I recently watched Robin Williams' 1996 movie, Jack.(downloaded the torrent for sis' sake..for her psych major)

The movie is about a boy with a unique aging disorder: one that makes him age 4 times faster than normal. Movie picks up when Jack (Robin Williams) is 10 years old, but looks 40. He tries to go to public school for the first time, and tries to become friends with kids his own age.(imdb.com)

napanood ko na siya before...I just watched it again with my sister till around 3am-ish, right after matapos ang download...haha, martyr na kapatid?nyeh?weh?di naman ui. hehe.

anyways,  i wanna share this quote from the movie (when Jack was giving out his valedictorian speech):

"We find ourselves remembering the good times, and trying to forget the bad times. And as we start to look ahead, we start to worry.

We think "What am I going to do? Where am I going to be in ten years?" But I say to you, "Hey, look at me!" Please, don't worry so much. Because when you get right down to it, none of us have very long on this earth.

Life is fleeting, like a shooting star in the sky. Whenever you see a shooting star light up the sky with its brilliance, think of me, and try to make each and every moment of our lives as spectacular as possible. I know I did. I made it, Mom. I'm a grown-up. "

ahw. inspiring. nuff said.

chocoholic.

love'em.
number 2 fave ko na 'tong 100 grand (salamat ser layu sa treat nung wed...antakaw ko pasenxa naman)

...

other chocos to drool for: milkyway, crispy M&Ms, hershey's dark chocolate, maltesers, galaxy, caramel kisses...rar...huhu.

film viewing+umuulang bala+ilaw ilaw ilaw

kahapon parehong film viewing lang ang GEs ko.
sa SEA30, we watched BARAKA, a film by Ron Fricke...

"is an incredible nonverbal film containing images of 24 countries from 6 continents...The film has no plot, contains no actors and has no script.  Instead, high quality 70mm images show some of the best, and worse, parts of nature and human life.  Timelapse is used heavily to show everyday life from a different perspective.  Baraka is often considered a spiritual film.

Baraka is evidence of a huge global project fueled by a personal passion for the world and visual art. Working on a reported US$4 million budget, Ron Fricke and Mark Magidson, with a three-person crew, swept through 24 countries in 14 months to make this stunning film.
One of the very last films shot in the expensive TODD-AO 70mm format, Ron Fricke developed a computer-controlled camera for the incredible time-lapse shots, including New York's Park Avenue rush hour traffic and the crowded Tokyo subway platforms." (http://www.spiritofbaraka.com/baraka.aspx)

ang ganda ng shots. ang galing ng director.1992 film pa pala toh.pero timeless.sayang di kasama ang Philippines sa film (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baraka_(film))

sa PI100 naman, we watched Jose Rizal:Ang buhay ng isang bayani. Well, obviously dapat talaga namin panoorin yan hehe. haha, ang bata pa ni Pen Medina...

ayun.la lang. napurga lang ako sa films.tapos dadada si mam G about lighting after. hehehe...grabe ang daming klase ng lighting eh yung iba naman pareho lang din ang sense/meaning. what's the point? silhouetting's the same with backlighting...moonlighting's similar to downlighting...blah...oh well...hay ganun talaga...

rewind to lunch time...kasama ko si talia, hehe. bago na pala ang latasia.under new management. hmm. i like the purple environment better, pero mas masarap naman daw ang food ngayon.at nagkwento si talia sa kanyang LAE at nakakatakot na encounter with a stray bullet na binutas ang bubong ng boarding house nila at ang walang kwentang mga pulis.huhuhu. scary. damn person with the gun. baka daw lasing yung tao. kako baka tanga, di marunong gumamit ng baril. anyways, if the pulis responded asap baka nahuli pa nila yung gago. oh well, thankfully no one was harmed. katakot talaga.

hay, stop here.
THESIS muna.
