Thanks for dropping by

Its alright, real life comes 1st before net life and its great to hear that you still drop by then never at all

So far Im doing well and am enjoying photography, Im still re-learning a lot of stuff everyday and have noticed that I simply love the craft as an art; for business Im still trying to tap into it because money is a different issue.

Hehe must just be us as artists, we love to be free with our craft

So how are you doing now? Im very delighted that you dropped by, Im rarely on DA now a days because of FB with friends and some photo activities

Yeah, as slack as I may be sometimes, I do like to visit my DA friends from time to time. Thanks for adding me on face book Sorry if you get spammed with all my game updates etc, I wish I could filter who gets those and who does not (some of the people I am friends with can get freebies for clicking on those if they play the games).

There is never an end to learning, it's just that sometimes we learn alot more in less time - and it's a great thing, especially if it makes you even better at what you do. I can understand the money issues with doeing art for a living though; it's very very dificult to get a decent pay. It's a shame, really, that artisans get paid less simply because it's "art" and not science or politics. I hope that you will be able to find a happy inbetween though

I'm well thanks, waiting for a response from the defence force about my application. I'm getting more nervous the longer it takes. I'm trying to get fit too; but it's difficult, with no one else to really help me or even encourage me. It's literally a painful process, but I know that if I can get fit it will be a massive benefit.

I hope you've photo activities are going well, and that you're having fun

Wala naman yang AH1N1 eh, over rated na flu at mga namatay lang ay ung todo todo complications eh

Alright! Have fun sa HK!! Super sulit lalo na kapag nag shopping kau

Yup, panuod na namin HP6 at para sakin tama lang ung story at nagustuhan ko sya pero d sya masyadong ma action tulad ng inasahan ko. Natuwa lang din aq dahil nakita ko ung story ni Prof. Snape kahit papano.

D aq super HP fan at d ko rin nabasa ung book, pero na a appreciate ko movie

Sa opinion ko, ung HP na lumabas ung my "Diary of Tom Riddle" ay ang pinaka my action at astig kwento!

I just go back from the interview, grabeh nakakatuwa ung pinuntahan ko at akalain mo naman na aq lang ata ung photographer na nag apply this afternoon (well pinaka bata I think )

Gulat lang aq nung sabi sakin, your 21. So young! Hahaha, kasi 22 and up ung hanap para sa photographer Pero hanap nila all around type of photographer at sabi sakin, tatawagan aq if ever hehe (naka + points aq sa interview nung sabi ko na balak ko mag grow kasama ng company at gagawin ko best ko para ma angat pa ung name ng company too )

Pero mabait ung Mega Mazine and Publishing, sila pa nag applologize samin dahil ang sa system nila at akalain mo meron palang nag antay ng 2 hours para sa interview!

1st time lang aq maka encounter ng company na ganun ka humble eh, good first impression to boot

As for the people, masaya aq na naka kilala aq ng iba at ung isa taga Ateneo (similar sa AB course nya) at nakakatuwa sya kausap dahil artsy artsy din pala ugali 2lad satin haha

Washooo

Sa stress napapa desserts ka, haha spell stress backwards at desserts nga tulad ng sabi ng friend naming c Briks

Aun, nag decide naq mag move on dahil d naq umaasa sa na applyan ko (lack of real world working experience). Hindi ko naman sinisisi ung company dahil alam ko naman na mas kukunin nila ung better equiped at more experience vs. willing to learn more fresh grad; nakuha ko ung hints sa form na sinagutan ko: "List the last 3 employers you worked with" at sa interview nung sabi sakin: "Your so young! 21 years old applying!" Hehehe nakakatuwa pero 22 and up hanap nila eh

Nag enjoy aq sa experience ng interview at over all experience pero ngayun iniisip ko din ung work shop na sinabi ng papa namin; well na enrol na din kasi aq hehe

Photography work shop for outdoor wedding photographers at susubukan ko sya for more experience ng sa ganun ay mas umayos pa folio ko

Naks! Interview para sa marketing assistant Alam naman namin na hilig mo ung research at marketing part sa adver

Hindi naman fishy dahil hilig mo gagawin and thats what counts

Noeh in the call center and does this:

Noeh: Good day mam/sir, how may I help you?

Client: Hello, we need assistance regarding your companies terms of agreements per project proposal but we can not seem to locate it with the handbook you gave us.

Client: Can you give us the reference source for the fine print in your companies handbook?

Noeh: Yes I understand, if you kindly turn to page 10 of subcolumn C under section D; there you shall find the terms of agreement per prject proposal our company values.

Noeh: Is there any else I can assist you with?

Client: No that will be all, thank you.

Noeh: Your welcome sir/madam and thank you for calling ______ (marketing company) and if you have more inquries please do not hesitate to ask and we will be more than happy to assist you.

*Phone is put down

Na imagine ko tuloy kung un ang gawa mo sa account executive as a call center agent eh

Anyways God Bless sa interview bukas!

wow san ka magwworkshop? and how much?

grabe medyo nakakapraning at nakakalungkot~

feeling ko habang tumatagal na wala ako sa isang agency eh nawawala yung mga natutunan natin sa school

i guess iba kasi yung training sa school sa nature of work ko ngayon or maybe praning lang talaga ko

parang gusto ko ngang magmasteral eh

sobrang gusto kong mag-aral

ngayon ko lang narealize na sobrang sarap ng feeling ng studyante~

iba talaga yung rush
waaaah

i miss being a cfad student na so sad

si kambal kamusta na rin pala?

Nakaka lungkot kasi daming gastos at ang hirap maka ipon eh

Hmmmm, parang mind-set lang yun no kaya d ka praning; kasi naman panay traditional ang gawa natin sa school at aun alam mo namang mejo old school ang CFAD sa lessons.

Bale wala naman nawawala satin, sakto lang na nag e explore tau sa new marketing trends; not to mention a different kind of business which is really different from school training

Naq masteral, grabeh ayaw ko na masyado isipin un kasi kung ano ano pa kailangan eh

Tama ka, nakaka miss buhay estudante na madaming allowance para sa plates hahaha

Yup, kaka miss talaga mag uniform at tumambay sa pav ng CFAD Ano kaya kung sa reunion uniform taung lahat para nostalgia resolved?

Aun doing well naman kami ni sweet , so far surviving kahit wala pang major $$$$$$$

I managed to get new ones while at bohol, a few artistic while the rest were all family documented photos yet with advance exposure control
