untitled

I don’t know why I feel so disappointed and depressed when I fail someone’s expectation. I feel like I’m so ignorant of so many things. The simple things I can’t simply do and lots of things I can’t easily explain and elaborate makes me feel like i'm so stupid. yup..Oftentimes, it makes me feel like I’m a dumb. I know and I admit to myself that i have some flaws that others recognize. But those are my imperfections i may not be able to change it otherwise i will be gone to the reality that i am not myself anymore.. i don't intend to embarrassed and fail others because of my mistakes. I feel ashamed of myself that I come to a point of blaming myself, god and my imperfections. It seems like I always owe others an apology because of my mistakes.

colloquia

education:
Like what the speaker said education is a learning process. I agree, because if everyone has the eagerness to learn they will achieve their goal. If everyone will strive hard otherwise we might not achieve success. In education it takes a lot of patience in everything that we do.

literature:
I do believe that most of us have passion when it comes to wrting poems. Unfortunately, i'm not one of them. However, i love reading poems. Apparently, I already joined the poetry interpretation contest but sadly i didn't win.

entertainment:
I've learn that in Theater you must learn the word pakikisama because it is very important that you have good relationship with your co-actors. I learned to love theater when i took the subject last semester, i really had so much fun.

Fashion:
Fashion fades but style won't that's what i've learned from the speaker. It doesn't matter if your clothes are not expensive as long as you know how to carry it.

Sports:
I had fun listening to the speaker because she taught us some of the basic exercise of taechi. I had fun doing it because it would really help me to lessen my fats on my tummy.

Medical Technology:
I really thought that i would get bored on the topic. Fortunately it was fun to learn new things from the colloquia. I was amazed on how can they discover a person's illness. Actually most of us have a lot of queries because we want learn more about the topic.

Health and Beauty:
I believe all people have differences when it comes to beauty. I learned from the topic that it doesn't matter whether you don't posses the physical beauty what's important is you posses an inner beauty.

Music:
I was inspired by the speaker who has deep passion about music. I am also passionate about music because i love to sing and listen to songs that strucks me.

The Hype of Koreanovelas


Why do Filipinos a big fan of koreanovelas?? Actually, it is a never-ending question that is always been easy for me to answer. Besides, Koreanovelas is not the first to conquer the attention of the Filipinos. Chinovelas first became hype when Meteor garden was first aired in Channel 2, which gained ratings in which so many viewers were watching. Otherwise, chinovelas started invading the Philippine television first until Koreanovelas started appearing on national television. In accordance to the article I read at http://showbizandstyle.inquirer.net/ by Melissa Telan “Pinoy audiences are fed up with soap operas that last for years. They want something they can invest in and at the same time would have a beginning and an ending. Korean dramas fit the bill since they are short enough for viewers to watch the entire run. And since they feature only a few main characters, the audience is able to become involved with them despite their shorter length.” It’s true that teleseryes here in the Philippines is not enticing to watch anymore that I could almost switch the channel and find an interesting one. One more thing is that the teleseryes would take a long time before the story ends and sometimes the scenes were too exaggerated to watch. I think Filipinos were looking for something different in a way they could be more interested that catches their taste in watching teleseryes. It made a big impact to the Filipinos for it had influenced them in terms of food, fashion, values and music.

Apparently, the good thing about Korean dramas is that every scene in the story is exciting and the viewers could easily relate themselves from the story. For instance, the Koreanovela full house that became a hit, which made a mark because of its funny and kilig scenes of Jesi and Justin. I think Filipinos are fond of watching dramas that caters entertainment that amuses them from watching. It is very important that they understand and relate very well to make them feel the realism of the story. In fact, Filipinos were engrossed of the setting in most Korean dramas because of the attractive sights they see. In that way may be they get to travel as well while taking a glimpse of the view by watching koreanovelas. Accordingly, it was also said in the article “Another reason we Pinoys have taken a liking to Korean dramas is the values found in the shows reflect our own.” I strongly agree that the fact that Filipinos could relate on the story of most Korean dramas they get the benefit of learning values. Filipinos get values from koreanovelas for it showcase love and respect of family and value of culture and tradition. These things or values give mark to the Filipinos, that is being kept in mind.
On the other hand, that’s why most of the teleseryes that do appear on primetime are fantasies in which the format is change to catch more attention from the audience. Of course, Philippine drama also caters values although Korean drama has a larger audience. Absolutely, teleserye and fantaserye here in the Philippines are still being appreciated because before Korean dramas invaded us it was the Philippine drama that first catches the mind of the Filipinos.

Proclamation rally

It was on February 20, 2007 when ABMC3 and some participants went to a proclamation rally of the team unity senatorial candidates at the convention center in San Fernando. Actually our professor in RTV asked us to do a stand up reporting in which we’ll be acting as reporters interviewing people or if possible politicians. Basically, we ride a bus service from the school to go to the venue of the proclamation rally. Supposedly after getting into the venue there had been a problem where in we can’t go inside the convention because the place is too crowded. So the school decided that we must go back to the school for the convention can no longer accommodate us anymore. Apparently, Ma’am Virgie herself went to the venue and checked if our class can still go inside. Afterwards our professor went back and told us that we can still go there to interview some people and politicians. However, we went inside the convention and we were shocked by what we’ve seen because it was so unexpected that there were a lot of people attended the rally. On the other hand we were very excited to watch the proclamation rally for we will see most of the prominent people in the country. Perhaps that was our chance to meet and talk with the politicians and of course with Cesar Montano. The only thing that we have observed in the campaign of the candidates is that every time they speak about their plans for the country people react. Maybe because we no longer believe in what the senatorial candidates say. One more thing is that most of the attention and applause of the people is with the senatorial candidate Cesar Montano. Besides I can’t blame the people because even us clapped and shouted the name of Cesar because he is very popular as an actor. Fortunately, that is one of the advantage of most of the actors running in politics they get the attention and votes of the people throughout there popularity. Unfortunately, after the proclamation rally we didn’t get the chance to interview the senatorial candidates because the school commands us to go home.

Boredom

I hate being bored it’s because it does not give me energy to do the things that I want to do. It’s like I’m losing my adrenalin in my body and my mind is not working. Sometimes I do weirdo things just to release myself from boredom. I could not help biting my nails sometimes because that’s one of the solutions I know. It seems funny and disgusting though but it is my way of escaping from losing interest into something. In fact I often daydreamed in a way that I’m just thinking that I’m like Alice travelling in wonderland. I feel happy when I walk away from reality and go to a world where there’s full of fantasy. Daydreaming for me is very effective for human minds could travel in other dimension. At least throughout daydreaming I lose the tension of being bored.

Best friend in heaven


All my life there's no one in this world who knows me better than I am. All my life I have no one to run whenever I feel down and depressed for there’s no one there to give me some piece of advice. It’s so sad because there’s no one on my side who would care to listen and correct my imperfections. I always feel I’m alone that no one is there to keep me from hurting. I know I have lots of friends but I could not find one. Until I realize that there’s someone beside me trying to protect me and would sacrifice anything for me. In fact that only someone I know that who knows everything about me and even the tip of my nails is my best friend in heaven. I know he is the best friend of everyone but though he is only true friend that I have. I was nine when I lost a friend whom I treated as my best friend but that’s what I thought for I was never the best friend of whom I thought I could lean on. Then, someone held his hand to me that made me realized that it was him that would treat me more than anyone could. I was little when I was taught how to pray where in I always ignore him though I know he was the only one I could hold on to whenever trials pass me by. Absolutely, God conquered my life in which everything that I do is being recorded by him for he knows how many times I’ve been so happy and lonely. Besides, he even knows how many tears have fall and dried in my eyes that my empty heart he fills. If there’s no one there for me and leaving me behind he’s there. If I’m being left out he would focused his attention to me. God is good even though I’m always hurting him for so many times from the pain that I’ve caused and mistakes that I’ve done. I thank him for everything for he never gets tired listening to me. I’m lucky to have God even I don’t have some to call my best friend here in this world at least I have someone to call my best friend up there in heaven.

Broadcasting vs. Journalism


Which of these fields do I fit in??? If I would choose from the three fields I would want to be a broadcaster in the near future. I did say so, because ever since I was in elementary I already dreamed of becoming a news anchor in front of the television. I really want to appear on television for I was enticed by the well-known broadcasters here in our country. I guess broadcasting is where I fit in for unlike journalism I don’t see myself writing articles in a newspaper. It seems that I don’t have the passion when it comes to writing for you have to consider a lot of rules. Somehow, I can write when I’m in the mood the only problem is the readers have to check my grammar for I have so many errors in writing. Probably, in writing I get low scores for sometimes I have problems in grammar and even in the content of a certain article. I used to laugh at it when my work is not that good. Although I admit that in the field of broadcasting writing is also part of it and especially I have to be fluent in English to be more flexible in terms of language proficiency. Otherwise, I may not be a credible reporter but it would help if I would practice myself talking in English and ready myself for every consequence I might encounter. On the other hand when I took mass communication my mother was not in favor for she wants me to take up nursing. Unfortunately, never did I see myself working in a hospital for I know I was born to be a news anchor. In fact my mother said that that’s why I took mass communication it’s because I idolize my cousin for she was finished in the same course in which I strongly defended. Indeed, I know in myself that ever since all I want for myself is to be seen on television reporting and serving to bring news to the public. Eventually, I would prove to them that I would achieve my goal as a successful newscaster in our country.

Desperate for love


Sometimes I'm wondering if there is really someone destined for every individual in this world. Actually, for a long time I’ve been searching for someone that could make me experience how to love n to be loved. Unfortunately, I couldn’t find that person destined for me. I don’t really believe from the old cliche "wait until the time comes" although I’m tired and getting bored of waiting for nothing. It seems like I’m running out of time that I’m the only person left in this world that haven’t experience being loved unconditionally. I could not help but be desperate from searching a guy that I could share my happy and dull moments with.

I used to believe in fairy tales but I guess like in the story of Cinderella there’s no such thing as fairy god mother that would help me find my prince. It may seem funny but like in the television series of desperate housewives I’m desperate of seeking for the one I could entrust my happiness. There are so many people in this world that have found their match and I envy them for they are lucky to have experienced loving and to be loved. However, I know that I’m still young and I still have a lot of time but I think it’s not fair that others were happy being in love while I’m sad being loveless. Sometimes I just cry for I feel hopeless of something that is nonsense. It may not be sensible for others but for me it is very important for I’m just a simple human desperate for love.

VJ HUNT 2007

Febuary 05,2007 was the happiest day of my life. It’s because VJ HUNT 2007 was one of the achievements of ABMC3 had ever produced. I did say so for as one of the organizers I felt glad for all the things that I contributed in this event. It was rewarded by many compliments. In fact I was the voice over of the event in which I practiced so many times just to present it well. I am so proud that every one of us in our class helped each other just to make the event a better and successful one. In every shout and clap of the audience watching I feel overwhelmed for it was another achievement for me and for my classmates. Actually, one of the participants in the event texted one of my classmates and quoted “Congrats 2 u ol.!, uv rili done a great job..tnx guys 4 invitin us & b a part of ur program., dis has bin a memorable event 4 us, we rili had fun! Thank u so mch! Godbles u guys,.tke cre olweiz..c; ABMC3”. Throughout this compliment the class received I got inspired more to work hard in every thing I do. I also got enticed by one of our teachers who always give her support all the way when she said, “It’s the best VJ HUNT ever produced in AUF!” I think coming from the words of a professor it was a big accomplishment that the third year masscom would receive such a flattering comment.

No one can hold ABMC3 down!

Since the day our class reached our freshman year at AUF. All eyes are laid upon our innocence in the field that we want to pursue.There was an instant discouragement from the people who are expecting us to fall. The people in our surroundings were trying to give us a doubt on ourselves that we don’t have something to bring out. Actually, some teachers and students focused there attention on us from the fact that we don’t usually expose ourselves in a lot of activities when we were in first year. It was like in the previous batches our class is the least active.
However, we also tthought it the same way as others that we really don’t have something to show to the people and even to ourselves. Although there are a lot of rumors circulating we are trying to cope with the things that would just lead us to getting dissapointed
t. Until one day throughout our detractor’s and the criticisms that we endure it made us stronger and had inspired us to prove to them that among the previous batches we made a difference. Besides we don’t know why people should think of the thought that we're not smart but stupid. On the other hand, we definitely have proven them WRONG! We the mass communication third year makes sure that our class in this year’s batch would make a mark in the minds of the people in our college and in the university. On the lighter note we are the reason why the population of mass communication students have increased. It was us the third year mass communication students who promoted our college especially our course in different schools in pampanga. We printed some posters, fliers and brochures just to market our college. We even organized a seminar where in we all worked hard for it.
It was an overwhelming feeling that because of our class we brought a lot of students with us to go to our college and take mass communication. Maybe throughout this achievement we have proven to our detractor’s that we have a lot of capabilities that we can be proud of. This time we can say NO ONE CAN HOLD ABMC3 DOWN!!!!

Newspaper and Online Newspaper

Newspaper
A publication, usually issued daily or weekly, containing current news, editorials, feature articles, and usually advertising.
Online Newspaper
is never "put to bed," is never completely finished so long as there is news to report (or readers to receive that news for the first time as they log on at various hours of the day and night), the individual stories are not the message of the online paper.
I may say that an online newspaper is similar to newspaper for the two offers information which may publish daily. Accordingly, online newspaper "they had content down pat; the difference online was the time scale, not the content itself. But they did not realize that the time scale imposed its own message, that going from a daily to an hourly publication made it different, not just faster". Otherwise it means online newspaper is different for an online newspaper is always being splash for the latest news every hour of the time. One more thing the newspaper online is accesible for I could read whenever I want. Anytime i want to surf the internet i could check the news through the use of an online newspaper. Unlike in newspapers, i will still wait for tommorow to know the latest news. On the other hand, online newspaper is more enticing to read for it uses different colors, pictures and backgrounds that that is pleasing to the eyes. I think as a reader it would be more comfortable to the reader while reading a headline in the computer. Apparently, one advantage of an online newspaper there is no need to look for the other page of the continuation of the headline but I could read the whole headline at all. Besides on the newspaper I'm having a hard time browsing the other page for the continuation of the headline.

Corruption a cancer to the Government



news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/asia-pacific/1593655.stm
If we would talk about corruption the first thought that would come to mind are the people involved in politics. Precisely, if we would mention them all it might occupy the whole page. However, there was this prominent man who was linked to the issue of corruption. Apparently, rumors are circulating that the first gentleman Mike Arroyo was allegedly questioned to be one of the most corrupt people in the country.


Basically when the issue came out like what the showbiz people do, Mr. Arroyo definitely denied that he’s a corrupt. In that case, the people would not easily reckon that kind of testimony. According to the articles the first gentleman was quoted to be the jueteng lord in the country. In an article I read, "The First Gentleman and Rep. Arroyo shouldn't be defended and protected by Malacanang and President Gloria without first allowing investigations to take place. None of the scandals involving the First gentleman have been allowed to come completely to light, and it's without a doubt because Malacanang has put its foot down against any close inquiries into his business affairs and involvements. Mike Arroyo may not be an elected public official, but he still nonetheless holds a position of power and influence that he has constantly been accused of abusing and exploiting to amass ill-gotten wealth." I believe so, it appears that the pieces of evidence were strong enough to prove the issue. Unfortunately, these important facts were being interfered because it could be the end of their secret lies. It would sound ironic but corrupt leaders were the cancer of the government. It’s just so sad that most of the people who does it and leaving there mess without giving any resolution are those who are in higher position.
