GALAXY AND DIAMONDS

It's been a month since I last posted here. I was probably too busy catching up with my real life that I almost forgot my virtual one. Kidding! September and October were not very friendly to me, especially the latter, with loads of work piled up on my desk. But yeah, no more negativity and just focus on positive things.

One of the things I love about my job is that I get to attend (and cover) events for free. I'll be blogging about my work misadventures really soon here. One of them, and probably the grandest to date, was the Diamonds World Tour Concert here in Manila by no less than bad gal RiRi herself, the woman who defined the R&B of today, Rihanna.

FLASHBACK FRIDAY: A different kind of emptiness by the stairs

Throwback Thursday has bred many offspring: Flashback Friday, Senti Sabado, Swingback Sunday, Wayback Wednesday and even Memory Monday. Kidding on the last one! Haha! But let me make this as an excuse to walk down to memory lane again and reminisce something back in college.  It was a moment when my friend and I realized that something so ordinary can look extraordinary when given enough attention. And when we can still enjoy the freedom of dressing casually when going to class. Lol!

On the first day of theater class, our professor didn't show up, giving us the time to do whatever we want. My friend and I had this idea of shooting some photos in one of the oldest buildings in our university. We complement each other, I guess. She is one who is enamored by the beauty of the photographs while I'm the one whose vanity could not be controlled. In short, she loves to take (amazing) photos and I just like to pose move in front of her lens which seem to beautify everything it captures.

REAL WORLD NEWBIE

Five years ago, I was a high school senior taking and hoping to pass the UPCAT (college entrance exam). Now, I’m already a graduate. 

Four  years ago, I was trying to find my place in a new environment known as the university. Now, I’m trying to find my niche in what most people would call the “real world.” 

Three years ago, I was learning the tenets of my course, dreaming to see the products of my playful mind get published. Now, luckily, I see them in dailies and glossies. 

Two years ago, I went to places and looked for news. Now, I go to events and try to create executions that would make the news. 

One year ago, I was battling the dreaded deadlines of writing my thesis and finishing the last hurdle of the chapter we fondly call college. Now, I’m beating material deadlines for what I would now call work.

What I'm wearing: polo-shirt and belt from SM Department Store, chino pants from Bench,
and shoes from an ukay-ukay in Makati Cinema Square.
