Nung writing workshop, ang pinagawa kong "getting to know each other" activity sa mga apprentice ay ang pagsasabi nila ng isang weird fact tungkol sa sarili nila na hindi pa alam ng marami. Eto ang pinaka-mabenta.
"ako, everytime kumakain ng gummi bears, dalawa."
"dalawa? Eh anong weird dun?"
"Wala. Feeling ko kasi, malungkot yung isang bear sa tiyan ko kaya sinusundan ko agad ng isa pa, para may kasama siya."
AWWWW!

Penmanship Personality test
Sa last day ng photography class, our professor decided to unwind with the students by reading their handwriting. Ayaw ko talaga sa mga ganun, hindi din ako naniniwala na kaya niyang basahin ang personality mo base sa penmanship mo. pero nung buong klase na ang kasali, sumali na din ako. Dinala ko ang planner kong puro doodle kay sir, and let him read my personality.
"Wow" Sabi niya agad. "you are an artist ah! Kaya naman people find it hard to understand you." And then he looks at Audrey na kakatapos lang niyang basahin. "Talo ka nito hija, mas malakas ang right brain niya kesa sa iyo. Look at his planner o, he draws para hindi mapagod."
Puzzled, tinanong ko kung ano ang purpose ng right brain.
"When your left brain gets tired from all the memorizing, the thinking, you can shut it down and use your right brain instead to channel your stress. Kaya hindi ka masyado napapagod kasi you know how to divert your attention. Pero yun nga, mahirap kang intindihin, ganyan tayong lahat na mga artist."
So that explains it. Sabi ko sa sarili ko.
Then I asked. "Sir, eh ang love life ko po, kamusta?"
"Okay naman."
"Paanong okay?"
"Like i said, mahihirapan kang humanap ng taong iintindi sa iyo. That person must really, really love you para maintindihan ka. Complicated ka kasing tao eh." Tumawa si Audrey.
"So yun ang challenge ko sa love, sir? Ang makahanap ng taong maiintindihan ako?"
"Oo. Loyal ka naman eh. You'll be a good husband, and a good father." Nagreact si Manjie. "Good father pala eh!"
"And when you find that person na nakakaintindi sa iyo, don't let her go. But I know in time, she will come."
"Sa career ba sir? Yayaman ba ako?"
"Stay sa media. Ano ba ang hilig mo?"
"Editing po. Ng videos."
"That's good! Stay on that field. Yayaman ka!"
Sa isip ko, "yayaman lalo."
And then, natapos ang test with these final words from Sir Rotor.
"Don't let go of your passion, this is what will make you successful. And find that girl who will understand you. Mahirap mahalin talaga ang artists."
Bumalik ako sa upuan ko ng nakangiti. Parang nainspire ako na ewan. All the more I understood myself, pati na din ang lahat ng nangyari sa akin nitong nagdaang mga buwan. Parang lahat tuloy bigla, destined talaga mangyari. Kasi, konti-konti ko nang nakikita ang purpose ko sa buhay.
After the test, hindi pa din ako naniniwala sa penmanship test. Pero naniniwala ako na mahirap akong intindihin. At kung meron mang makaintindi sa akin, must really, really love me, kaya nila ako naiintindihan.
At the end of the day, I couldn't be anymore thankful that I'm getting that kind of understanding from my friends. And tulad nga ng sabi ni Sir, sana makita ko na din yung tao na magmamahal beyond my imperfections, and the one who would really understand. Loyal naman daw ako eh, mahirap lang talagang intindihin. Aahahahah!

Things I need for this month
A card reader
---Ang hirap kasi mag uplaod ng pictures and import music from my phone to my laptop.
An iPod
---Well, hindi kaya ng phone ko ang kayang gawin ng isang iPod. At ayaw kong magpanggap ang phone ko bilang mp3 player, kasi hinid siya talaga ganun! ahaha! I miss listening to my music!
A plan for the sembreak
---I definitely would want to spend time with my friends this semester break. And I want it to be fun!
Good grades
---Delikado ako sa ethics ko dahil ang baba ng prelims ko, and I do not want to take the subject again, kasi puro memorization! May lit pa ako next sem, I do not need the extra subject! I want to graduate on time! Peste!
Okay, i'm uber sleepy now. These are just some of the things on top of my head right now.
PAHABOL
An inspiration
---hindi na! ahahah!
(ayan na naman ako!) Stop it Wado, it's not funny anymore. Sabi nga ni Ma'am Faye, ang landi daw ng Plurks ko. When I went back to read them, naisip ko, oo nga naman! AAARGH!!!

Updated: College Senior survives pre-finals week
I have been bombarded with tons and tons of schoolwork, I seriously do not know where to start. For my photography class, we are asked to make a 100-slide powerpoint presentation about our life story. I don't know if this has anything to do about photography, but I hope to enjoy doing this activity.
Ethics, we are to make a 10 page paper on a theory and seven of its support studies. This semester, I have to admit that I've been having serious trouble with my studies. None of my subjects seem to penetrate my brain, not even the thesis class I'm industriously working on. Words may be coming out of my hand for thesis, but none of them are appreciated by my comprehension. I may be sitting in class, all eyes on the professor, but my mind is someplace else, taking its long overdue break.
I have to blame my wrong welcome for the semester. I have been too focused on other things like my orgs, lovelife, that I haven't placed much thought on the importance of education. And now that the finals week is approaching, I'm scared as hell.
With the help from my good and trustee friends, I am able to get by. I am looking forward to finish my ethics paper along with my pares, my film paper along with my gangoffour, finish my photography slideshow by myself (since this is my forte and all), and the rest will come easy.
After the typhoons that hit the country, and after a series of class suspensions, the deadlines for the finals were moved as well. Therefore, I have more time to work on these things. And today, I'm beginning to collect photos from my online journals to use in my photography project. Here's a sample photo:
This was taken by a good friend of mine at a hot spring resort in Laguna.
This week, I'll try to condition myself for the finals week. I hope I make it through. I'll rid myself of distractions, gather all inspirations, strengthen my faith in God and in myself, and say "nothing in this world could stop us tonight." -Paris Hilton
AHAHAHH!
