back to my uniform


Today, I was back into my old uniform. Funny thing was, a lot of people were..well kinda surprise to see me back in my immaculate white uniform. I looked a lot like high school. Hehe

I miss this uniform. I was used to the comfort it brought until we started wearing our Prac uniform.

Doodles with Bridget

Econ time was doodle time with Bridget. We were writing at the back of the photocopied notes while semi-listening to the reports of our classmates.

I wrote something that goes like this...

"All good things come to an end..
But even not-so-good things come to an end either...

Not that's comforting!"

Everything is fleeting. Everything is changing. Everything will never be ever the same again.
Just like the weather now...the sun will come out tomorrow..maybe not...You'll never know.

feeling summer na

Uhmm...bored kasi ako kaya napilitan akong sumulat..

Narealize ko na ang Awit entry ko eh ang first entry ko for 2009. Ganon ba ako kabusy? Hahaha. 

Kahapon Sunday, isang napakaboring na araw... i went to SM alone...watched a movie...boring...I went home...ate by myself...

hanggang sa...naiiyak na ako..kasi wala akong ginagawa!

Ganun ba yun? Binigyan ako ng chance ni Lord to rest..pero...bakit hindi ako masaya?

Ngayon...walang pasok...panetnet na lang ako...

Buti at binayaran na ako sa ginawa naming commercial...at buti anjan ang mga Bio kids to keep me company...Hanggang sa nakuwento ko na tuloy yung mga nangyari sa akin nung grade 2 ako...Wala rin namang nagiinvite sa aking lumabas...Finals na rin kasi at busy ang lahat...Marami pa ring nagcocongratulate sa akin about Awit...thank you po! 

Actually, dapat may ginagawa ako...pero pa rang wala pa akong gana...ano bang problema ko?

Natatakot nga ako...after grad...baka tumunganga lang ako sa bahay..

pero sabi ni DK ienjoy ko lang muna ang buhay estudyante ko ngayon...kasi sa totoo lang..ibang-iba daw ang buhay after school...

Hmmm...feel ko na ang summer...kita naman siguro sa header ko...

wala ng coherence ang mga pinagsasabi ko...halata bang bored ako?

ito ata yung mga panahon na dapat ay basahin ko ulit ang mga libro ni Bob Ong...

humanda na lang ako sa mga darating na araw...

baka next month pa ako makakapagsulat ulit.

The Awitenista Experience

I had the chance to direct the biggest show of my life by far. Last night, was a nerve-wracking moment, yet it was a very special night for me. It was a dream come true for me.

I've been with Awitenista for four years. When i was in first year, I was just one of the audience. I got my first experience in a big live production when I was part of Awitenista 2007 and was the program committee head last year. This year, was a bit different...

I wasn't supposed to be the head of Awit productions this year. When we were having our planning, i was firmed to transfer in the Promotions. But due to a lot of circumstances...I stepped up and well...took the responsibility. That was October...

We were late...So we had our pre-production meeting, recruited the production staff, did our promos, posted ads and got through the Preliminaries.

The committee decided to get 16 deserving entries. 

So it was time to produce the Grand Finals night...

Kalasag, having a pool of creative and talented minds, took a big risk in the production. For us, the 22nd Awitenista Grand Finals Night is the most ambitious Awitenista ever.

The pre-production was a grueling process. It was hard for us because there were six of us in the group who are graduating students and we still need to squeeze in our academics while trying to keep us with our responsibilities. Being a MassCom student and the Literary Editor for the yearbook, I had to juggle my proofreading and acads and Awit all at the same time...I tried to squeeze in some personal time...but i failed in most times...

I lost 7 pounds in three days. Not to mention the pain of having two wisdom teeth growing inside my mouth at the same time...Stress and vertigo are two of my best friends. 

And did we did it. We got through the show. Although it wasn't perfect, but i believe that we had a great show last night.

With this, I would like to thank some people who made my last Awitenista experience a memorable one...

1. Of course, my Kalasag family with Sir Bong--another achievement for us guys. I'm proud of us.
2. To all Awitenista Production Staff
3. To all composers, interpreters, accompanists who joined us from the Preliminaries and the Finals--Thank you for your cooperation and sharing your time with us. We did all the best we could to bring out the best of everybody.
4. My MassCom friends--you never fail to boost me up
5. My family--I really wish you could see me with all the things I'm up to...
6. To Sir Rikki...thank you for the support and for believing that I can do it even though you were not around (I really wish you were there though...)
7. To my faithful God, you never fail to surprise me...I can do all things through Christ who gives me strength...

I want to dream bigger dreams...and make them all come true.
