Madaldal na isip

I can't think of a reason to post. Perhaps its been ages since I last posted, or maybe because i'm getting lazy again to go to gym or do my homework or what.. or it could be that it's a Feb 29, the only day which comes every after 4 years.. I dunno.. I think it just piled up.

Our last advertising practice campaign is near.. it'll only be 8 days until the day I'd juggle my mind from the campaign towards my mom's wedding day.

Anyway, I think i've found some clarity from these past events. I really do believe every challenge He gave me has a purpose. It takes one problem that pushes the other event to react. It may be negative, but it could also be positive. Like dominos. For instance, Paris got lost, my friend and I saved up really hard for it. We were able to raise money and in the end, our relationship got stronger.. which I never thought would happen since we've never been groupmates into any activity. Next was the Fashion Show which I thought I chose the wrong committee because I thought I knew nothing about it.. But thanks to Him, he gave me enough reasons to forget a forbidden emotion and at the same time, proved that Fortune telling is fake. I didn't have a "feb 14 sad" because I've met the person i've been wanting to meet. But the misfortune doesnt end there. I lost my wallet right after which I thought that probably I was really jinxed.. And I even forgot my toothbrush which made me feel really bad about that day. Unfortunately, my newfound friends helped me buy a toothbrush from the "nearest" convenience store. We even got closer. :)

Fashion show was a success but however, an important object was missing. Production was the only one blamed by our VERRRRYYY RESPONSIBLE chairman. I was even accused as the last suspect. Cmon men, what the hell am i gonna do with a poncho?! I was just helping out but nooo I just wished I didn't. Oh well, what's done is done. Moral lesson of the story? I'll mind my own business next time. Bahala kayo sa buhay nyo. haha

I am currently jittering from all these ideas flowing in my head. I dont even know where to start. People think i'm panicky but actually, i'm following my New Year's Resolution.. which is to prevent cramming. Hindi na nga stop e. And I think nothing's wrong with doing stuffs as soon as they are given to you right? I'm actually happy because in the end, its me who gets more time to rest. I guess they're not used to it. Oh well.. :)

Thesis and Adviser.. Adviser could probably my top 2 - Estrella or Velez. Estrella is particular on Creatives while Velez is more on Marketing. I think i'm headed towards the total ad campaign path.. I'm starting to believe Package Design is not for me. I may like it, but I don't excel from it. I don't even know where I excel. I'm just trying to take a guess on what and where.

So i'm gonna stop. I have to.. I must go back to work. We've been given a homework to do a media plan on our chosen brand with a limited but realistic budget. Mine is Krispy Kreme. I dont know why the hell I wanted that brand in the first place. The moment he told us to think of a brand I just didn't stop wishing for it not to be taken by someone else.

I miss writing.. nonsense things. Semester's about to end and all I can say was that this sem is a hell of a rollercoaster ride. For the record, it was fun.. I had fun. :) I just hope we won't fail in our campaign. :s that would make me a bad leader for the group.. :(

Signing off.. til next time,

xoxo (nyaha I so love Gossip Girl.. Dan is just SO HOT :D )

Successfully Successful

Fashion Season just ended and I am proud to say that WE DID IT! :)

Once again, our batch was able to pull it off.. to think that we only had one batch practice and one general rehearsal. NO DRY RUN. oh yeah.. And I definitely love our committee. After the show our energy was totally drained.. like cellphone batteries.

It was actually fun. And being exhausted from 2 days of shouting, standing, walking and preparing.. hell it was worth it. As soon as our show was done, our professor in Animation called me and congratulated us for he called our show "like a professional's work". Actually, most of the credits should really go to our head, Aina. The whole production wouldn't be super united without a good leader. Kudos ains!

I also had a great time meeting other people. Now I have new faces to greet on! I just hope it doesn't end after the show.

ALTHOUGH.. this was the season I lost two most precious things. Oh well.. what can I say.. I really learned a lot. I'm just happy the whole season ended well.

Now i'm gonna have to save up for my lost love. Next stop, Ad Campaign! :s

Whoo.. now we're back to the real world. I'm off.

trim at fix

I just had my hair trimmed this evening at Bench Fix. I really want to try there and see what the fuss is all about. :) Anyway, i'm happy with it. Unlike my last haircut. :p



pics to follow. :)



Whoo its been a while since I last updated you again. As far as I could remember, I didnt write any entries, not even once, February last year. Busy perhaps? Anyway, I was doing my Life Painting plate from 8 until today. Now that I've put down that paintbrush and wiped my hands full of raw umber and white, i'm clean to express whatever is on my head. :)



I guess this must be infatuation.. You bet! and i'm glad it is/was.. I've learned to subside and fight. haha



Our upcoming Fashion Show is so near.. So near I could feel the tension of our batch divided into its committees. I can sense that the Ways and Means and Promotions are doing what they can to get sponsors. I just hope they're able to pull their fingers on any of it. But the committees who are definitely stressed out are the Designers and the Production. Designers are going to this place to that place, make kulit to their models to come to UST and practice and at the same time, cope up with tons of plate. While the production are just waiting for the green sign to go and produce the whole place. I am praying for the success of our "unity". haha Anyway, in other news!



I got a bunch of 1.0 last week and 1.25 this week. Whatta weeks! :D im happy and inspired. :)

I just found out that one of my crushes is a member of the production committee. And the other could also be possible. Oh Lord, please.. make it happen! hahaha



That's all for now.. i'ma sleep so I can wake up early tom.
