IT WAS A FAIL.

Actually, that was all that I could tell. Sir SJ told us to interview people within and at the edges of the college building. To be honest, I am not good at talking to strangers. Well, what I could master was asking directions, like, "Manong, sa'n po yung building na ito?" But I went, anyway. I had to give it a shot. I went with my friend Harlene in McDo to search for some people (or kids) to talk with. It was she who found a couple of kids. She interviewed the less shy boy. My luck was probably rotten that day because his friend was an uber-shy girl. All that I had extracted from her was her name. LJ. And the fact that she and the little boy are first graders. Her mom accompanied them and they were playing games in their school so they wore their PE uniforms. MASSIVE FAIL. When her mom came back I could really tell what she was thinking. What the hell are you doing with these kids? Are you going to kidnap them? Come on. Try, girl.

I should've just talked to a vendor. That would've made my life easier.

All Nighter

What is the best thing that could happen to a DevC 11 student cramming and panicking on his News Article?

For just 3 hrs, you're able to gather information, conduct and interview and write a news article which is due the next morning (or TODAY). CRAMMING AT ITS BEST. I super duper thank Kuya Ha, for the news topic, for being my expert interviewee and for being my primary and secondary source of information essential for my news topic.

On the other hand, what is the worst thing that could happen to a DevC 11 student who spent his entire night writing a news article?

Was not able to review/study for my DevC 11 1st Long Exam (midterm exam) tomorrow (or TODAY) and now I'm spending my time blogging instead of reviewing. PLUS, I almost forgot I had a deal with my friend that whoever gets a better score on both Math 11 (College Algebra) exams and DevC 11 (Introduction to Mass Media Writing) exams, will have a chance to eat @ Bonito's Restaurant. And of course, losers treat. So I have to study no matter what.

So I think I've had enough of the news writing and badly need to review for the friggin' exam. May God bless us all and good luck to me. :D

Exer 2B

And I'm done with my DevC 11 Exercise 2B, Expert Interview. That was one tiring exer. Srsly. I pity my groupmate who transcribed the whole 29 mins and 52 seconds conversation with the Human Resource Officer of International Rice Research Institute (IRRI). And this resulted to a 17-page output, which means more money to spend for printing. And a thick output to pass.

My groupmate and I just wish it will result into a good mark. Because our professor is famous for giving surprising grades to his students. When I say surprising, I mean Bass Down Low.

The Perks of being in DevCom

HAhAHa. whatta title. weeeeelll, I should be doing my schoolworks now, but I will just blog first.. :)) I really want to blog in Tagalog but then I remember that I have to practice my writing skills in English. So here it goes. I wanted to blog last night but I was so sleepy so. okaaay, first, I am really having a hell week for two weeks now, so its like hellweek- the extended version, and that would extend til Monday because I still have DevCom exam on Monday. SO YEAH. Hell week sucks but they say that it's God's week because you are drawn more closer to God because He is your strength to do the things that you have to and I reaaly believe that this is God's week. :) I just can't wait for this week to end and finish all my requirements and I just can't wait for summer.

Next, I always see photos of him and her on FB and it's freaking irritating. SRSLY. I hate seeing photos of him and it's like all shouting at me like"hey, I have a girlfriend and blah blah." It's just freaking irritating and I just sometimes think that wait for me to post pictures like that but I realized that's wrong and I really should wait for God's timing. <3 and I really believe and pledge that I am more beautiful than the girlfriend. HAHAHA

I just love being a daddy's girl. I've been coming home lately for days now, and my dad just makes sundo me because I'm kinda scared. And this is so conyo. And I come home late because of speech comm practice. 

Speaking of speechchoir, at first I thought that why should we bother on practicing if we don't have plans to win?(because if we win, we would have to compete next week, thus another week of rehearsals) But now, I thought, yes, the experience would be great whether we win or not. :) and it's a way for our recit class to bond. HIHIHI.

and our Devc11 lab instructor gave us a bonus exercise which is to cover a sports story since this week, the university is holding its PALARONG UPLB(intrams/sportsfest) and of course, to cover a story, you need to gather data so basically we have to watch this games. And yeah, we were assigned to the softball games. And when I was watching, I was just so starstrucked with what I am doing, and I just enjoy it. HAHA. That's one of the things I like when it comes to being a "journalist", you get  to go some places and do some things, and with my experience, it was awesome. :))) so yeah, I really do enjoy it. And my professors also mentioned that you are not alone in a team because you have your cameraman, researchers, producers, then us, journalists. SO I just figured out that I wanted to be like that all. HAHAH.

Okay this is scary, I'm so head over heels with my course, there's a possibility that I may fall out of love with it in the future. But I would do my best not to let that happen. HAHA

This post is supposed to be much longer but I forgot all the things that I wanted to blog about. And I really should go because I still have a lot of things to do and I have to wake up early tomorrow. :))

I miss blogging and partying and sleeping and a lot of things. bzzz.

A cup of coffee..

Awkward title thank you.. So, I was supposed to blog about this last night(err,yesterday) but I was(am) tired. HAHA.

So my day went well. That's all, thank you. Kidding!  So my DEVC11 Lab professor told us that if we blog about our experience yesterday, we would receive a bonus point. HEHEHE I am just being honest here so you won't think that I am doing this for the sake of Bonus. But I badly need it, and I really do like to share my experience.

Our class starts at 10 am and I got there on time(I think). Our professor asked us to bring some cups because we will have coffee during our class. I honestly thought that he would just let us have our coffee and just like that. But no, he prepared an activity with our "free coffee". Well, we, I really need some extra points and I also wanted some coffee and some hot pandesal. Hehe.. And so he told us to make the best-tasting coffee on our own(at first I thought he wanted us to make the "best cup of coffee" so I thought he wanted us to decorate our cups *I was sleepy*) and right about our experience and the process of making our coffee. So I did that. I really liked my coffee by the way. I am not fond of drinking or making coffee so when I tasted mine, I concluded that it was the best. And to add some spice to my judgment, I didn't think that I was just hungry because I didn't eat breakfast at home(I rarely do). And the experience was fun and I also hope that I did well writing my article. *crossfingers*

I think I still have a lot of things to share to you about yesterday but I forgot it all. :(

OKayyy, last Devc11 laboratory meeting was just another experience that I would never forget and would add up to my list of REASONS WHY I LOVE DEVCOM AND STUDYING HERE IN UPLB. I really think that it was a way to doze off from a lot of Devc11 paper works+other subjects+personal matter. I hope that this is not the last time we would have an activity like that(I do know that).. SIR SHERWIN FTW! HAHAHAHAHAHA
