Overhauled! Welcome to the new face of my webface--my blog!

“FROM ZERO TO HERO”

I got this title from Jason Mraz's Geek In The Pink. Anyway, it's his concert pala ngayon in Manila. Well, ingat ka na lang. Wala ako sa concert mo ngayon. Wag ka nang magtampo, okay? Hahaha!

ANYWAY,

Of all the words in that song, I like this the most,

Ups, downs, lefts, rights, and YES!

I got the chance to study again after one long year, na samahan mo pa ng few, idle months! I'm gonna be studying AB Digital Filmmaking at De La Salle-College Of Saint Benilde. 

Now, you might be thinking,

“From BS Medtech to AB Digifilm?”-- Yes. I took up BS MedTech for a year. Dahil... Well, I don’t know too. Hehehe. Nagustuhan ko naman ang course nung mga bandang gitna na ng first sem. I said to myself, maybe hindi talaga ako destined maging writer. What I really want is to become a scriptwriter or a journalist. Pero since kahit papano nagustuhan ko na ang MT, I started planning and considering this track I was on. I dreamt of being a doctor, a pathologist, in particular. Because our cool and awesome dean, Dean Ramirez said na kaunti na lang ang ganon. So, I put it in my mind while studying. It’s been good and fine because I got good grades naman, higher than I expected. All I wish is makapasa lang naman. Pero hindi lang iyon ang binigay sakin ni Lord. I’m happy that some of my professors recognize my performance in class, kahit lagi akong tulog at di nakikinig sa FCL. HAHAHA. I had no hard feelings when I took this course, even though I don’t think I would like what I’m doing with this.

“AB Digifilm? Practical ba?” – I’ve seen a forum on Myx, about college life. It’s like they are talking to incoming college freshmen about factors that they should consider in choosing their college course. Some say that when you are financially-unstable, you should consider practicality. Like, you have to choose a course wherein after you graduate you would surely get a high-paying job or just simply a job, that everyone’s been struggling for. A job that will provide you a living. For rich people, some say that they consider their passion. They meant that rich people can afford anything: going to prestigious schools and do what they want. So, I thought to myself, I’m one of those people who are not rich, neither poor. What am I going to choose? When I took up BS MedTech, everybody knows that medical technologists are in demand, kahit saang bansa pa ang pinag-uusapan. Let’s say that there are BIGGER chances that they will have jobs once they pass the licensure exam. Pero naisip ko din, paano naman ang gusto ko? As I’ve said earlier, I want to be a scriptwriter. When I was working as a fastfood service crew, there was a time I got the chance to talk to my parents. I opened up that I like Medtech but it was not the one that I truly love. So we talked about many things, and we ended up understanding each other. They now let me pursue what I truly want. And I’m really happy about that. I don’t know what’s in store for me in the coming years. But what I am sure of is this passion that I have in my heart will enrich the artist in me and I don’t really care about the money I am about to make someday. We all need money, but we need not be living just for it, right? What’s important to me is living without having major, life-changing regrets.

“Benilde? Mahal dun diba?” – YES! Super! Hahaha. Kahit ako ay nalulula sa tuition fee namin. Pero I SUPER THANK GOD for helping me get through this because I became a scholarship grantee of DLS-CSB Office of Culture and Arts, as I join Coro San Benildo. Ito na ata ang isa sa pinakamagagandang regalong natanggap ko, because it’s so overwhelming to know that kahit saan ako mapalingon, gusto ko ang ginagawa ko. And it’s really really nice to know that, etong katawan ko lang ang mapapagod, pero hindi magsasawa ang puso ko sa mga ginagawa ko dahil gusto ko to. I love music, I love writing, and I LOVE WORLD! Grabe ang saya lang! ;)

So, I answered all the questions that, I think, are now in your minds. Feel free to ask some more! I’d be glad to give an answer. Di man ako on time sasagot, basta sasagot ako. J Don’t be shyyyy. And to those who wants to ask but prefers to be quiet about it, it’s okay. I am not a mind reader anyway, but I hope that your reason behind staying quiet is you guys are happy for me. ;)
