My, uhm, new header image(?). What do you think?

Haha. Pretending to have finally published my comic book with the original concept of “universal orbital microcosmic existence.” Explanation? Wait until I find interestin publishing such. ^_^
When I find something not really interesting, no matter how important it is, I don’t bother. Unless there’s a Lucky Me! Pancit Canton or two to be offered as just compensation.
Keeping the day intact and focused is no big deal for me. I need a reason to everything. Reason to continue what I have started. Reason to interest me to continue what I have started, that is.
I don’t know why I came up to take journalism as a career in the future. For someone who have been submerged to visual arts for my entire life, writing and speaking is a mile more estranging.
My former classmates would always be surprised everytime they ask me about the course I am taking in college. They know me as an uber classroom boy who didn’t bother socializing with the outside world (that is, batchmates of other sections). They know me as the art class professor who does all the room decorating, drawing, painting, and props making in play productions and major school events. They know me as someone who didn’t extrovertly showcase himself in front of many people like some celebrity wannabe in Starstruck. They know me as someone who doesn’t want to be known to many people, but the congratulatory banners in our school screaming my whole name would oppose my solitary prerogative.
They know me as an artist who writes incoherently and grammatically incorrect. So I preferred drawing than essay writing.
“Tapos Mass Comm ka?“, they asked. Then I remember they were claiming for flash nose bleeds. They found me a bit different when they heard me answering their subsequent questions in an unusual diction and language.
Now, major subjects suddenly pop out of our curriculum. Subjects like I am required to create a short interpretative/investigative news report vid about the Sangguniang Kabataan abolishment in the Philippines. Or the present state of mass media influence to society phenomena. Or the application of Law of Mass Media in the short documented life and profession of Ellen Tordesillas. All which requires proper time management and money and, of course, interest. Then the reason to continue will be the last on the checklist.
Our school can’t gratify my expectations, and it greatly affected me. I lost my interest to exert extra effort in our class.
But after the interviews with some media practitioners, I think I have to change my mind.

We’ve interviewed Cong. Gilbert Remulla last Friday. And I was starstruck. He’s Gilbert, and he’s a Remulla. I finally had my hands on him for the first time.
Sorry. No pics. Wish Cong. Remulla would read this and send us our pic ^_^. Earth calling Cong. Gilbert Remulla… yohoo!!
Then Ellen Tordesillas on the next. God, I thought we would spend a lot for her interview. But we’re so surprised. We’ve munched on free supreme cheezy crust pizzas she ordered, and for merienda a plate of seafood fettucini and ravioli courtesy of her friend Sol Vanzi, a former journalist. We’ve learned so much from her, you might be interested in what we have talked about.
Say “Mouse”! I thought that was serious.I really said mouse.
I really looked tired. Yet in fact, my stomach is fullof 8 pounds of Italian recipes. Haha. I need a workout
