"LIGHTS, CAMERA & ACTION!"

| Director shouts |

Likas Teatro, a socio-cultural club or might as well a theatre club in my school, Notre Dame of Dadiangas University here in General Santos City started doing theatrical plays since before our moderator/director resigned. Before we started acting, we were doing mash-ups and operatic performances w/ the help of our violinists and cellists in our school celebrations. Then came to this point were we have to shift from pure musicality to the core of theatre acting. I was a member of this club for 4 years but unlucky my last year was our first performance in acting. Our first performance was entitled "The Dancers" in which I was the master propsman (I can't find the poster I made). Then we took our big break with our next play "Behind the Sin" which I played as a very irritated Director.

After I graduated, new batch of actors/actresses came and another play was done entitled "Halo-Halo", which was adapted from a dessert Halo-halo. A play about 4 different stories yet connected to each other. Each story is a different flavor for the audience to taste to.

Months went by and institutional celebrations came, The Intramurals. Every Intramurals and University Week of the school, Likas Teatro always prepares a play for the students and might as well the students are waiting for this. This years play is entitled "Patalim" ("Knife"). This was a remake of our latest play Halo-halo. In this play we changed the last story to something for intriguing, to something more striking and mysterious. This was really a good play for which it has been always the Star Performer of our club, Tessa Mae Alejado, who breaks the monotony of the play.

I will surely miss doing this stuff while studying. Theatre played a big part in my life and as well as in my career. Long Live Theatre! ^_^

On the 11th day before Christmas was such a very busy day.

1st

We had our Pastoral Day at the Maria Gorettie, home for female orphans, I think. It was fun being with those kids, rather with those girls. When we went there the children rather the girls were kind a busy. When we reached their gate, someone shouted "Naa na sila! (They're here)!". When someone said, that everyone went out of the house and had this very weird stare. Luckily someone smiled and greeted us welcome then followed by the other girls. To start the mini program we had the prayer then the telling of the our names and their names also. The rule for us, Likas Teatro Members, was to tell our name and our talent. Then for them, the girls, their name, age, place and talent also. Their ages really differ to each other. The oldest was I think 19 years old the youngest was 6 years of age. The whole mini program was fun. We had games, intermission numbers and some kind of eating session. When it was already 5:00 pm we went home because the girls are going to have their Christmas party and they need to dress up and go. It ended up saying goodbyes to them and having this autograph signing. (LOL)!


2nd

I watch the Twilight movie on Cinema 1. It was great, I really liked the movie. I've been craving for this movie since it was released in Cinemas all over the world and since it was being popularized. After watching the movie, we ate at the Cafe Spazio for our dinner.

11 days before Christmas!

"Merry Christmas and have a Happy Christmas vacation"

│ the lines of greetings │

18th day of December was the last day of class for year 2008. Tomorow December 19 will the start of our Christmas Vacation. Want to know what happened on the last day of class?

Here's how it goes. Early in the morning I had my Misa de Gallo at the St. Michael Archangel Parish then after that I prepared myself to go to school for my 9:00am class at the MO building,4th floor. On my 9:00am class, IT123, our professor had a suprise quiz but open notes (he always do this when he conducts quizzes). It was fun because we really don't know what to do because the lesson he discussed that Tuesday was a complicated one, yet because of the notes we had the last time. Well, because of the notes and the sharing of answers( secretly) we did finish the quiz. After that very fascinating quiz we had, me and Anna went to Angels to eat some lunch. Take note, Anna called me because she doesn't have any companion to eat with.

After taking lunch, I had to prepare because here comes my Fil 2 at 12:00om at the HR building ( the building in front of the MO building ). Before going there I saw my, c**** ( you know it already ). Well, I ignored it and went straight to the room. There in the room was our professor waiting for his students, including me. On that subject, there was also a quiz, about editorial writing. GOSH! I haven't prepared myself from this activity or quiz or whatever. Then he said, its up to us if we open notes or ask our seatmates. Well, thats the best attitude I am glad with my favorite Fil teacher, Mr. Gamiao. I finished the editorial, about global warming, 30 minutes before the time and so after doing it, I had to chit and chat with my seatmates. The bell rang and I immediately went to 4th floor MO building again for my Math 112. Well, you whats the best about this day? I had a quiz in each of my subject that made me rattle. Well, that's life. Going back to the quiz on Math 112, the quiz was all about trigonometric ratios or the sin, cos and tan. The quiz was not that hard and not that easy, an average one. I answered it, and I even helped my seatmate and a friend of mine to her problem. It was solved and were done. After passing the papers, our professor immediately checked the papers and gave it to us. I've got perfect! While my seatmate got 15 only out of 20 because she had the wrong number on the solution. Its, ok, thats what I told her. After all the classes I had, do you know what I did next? I posted what happened this last day of class, December 18, 2008 on my blog.

Hahaha!!! That was fun, even though I had quizzes...

It had been a busy day for everybody, me, my friends and my family. My sister cleans the house (she's bored staying in the house), my friends preparing for their practical exams on their P.E and their preparations for tomorrows Computer Age Society Night or CAS Night just held at the Covered Area of the school while me... Busy preparing for my posts for my blog, photos for my accounts and leveling up my character. Well, of course I'm also part of the CAS Night, as a member, and so after the busy blogs and etc. I looked for dresses in my cabinet. There was nothing to be worn except that very thick long sleeves that was hung in it and a very "old" black slocks. Well, i have nothing to do but to have the semi-formal attire. I got the my "recreated" vans shoes on the shoe rack, blue long sleeve and a white pants. But I was worrying about my white pants because it will be easily get dirt so now I've been thinking of what good combination will I do. And so, I looked for my other pants but there were in the laundry. While thinking of more solutions, I was alarmed because we will have our rehearsals right now and so, I quickly dressed up and went to school. But there was no rehearsal at all, that was just a false alarm, well because I haven't took my lunch yet I went to the CMRE Office where my Aunt stays and ate some lunch there. After that, Sister Cynthia requested me to make a powerpoint presentation for the Alumni Homecoming's Mass that will be held at the field so, I made one and ended on 5:30 in the afternoon. Because its already late and my Aunt is already done with her classes we went back home together.

Going down the market my Aunt was suppose to buy vegetables and meats for her fridge yet she saw somekind of "ukay ukay" near the market. And so, she decided to go there and have some ukay ukay trip. She bought a "tube-like" whatever it is, and she bought it, while me? I chose nothing but to watch her. She asked me if I liked something there and I saw this one of a kind pants on the corner of the store. She asked me if I really like it and I said Yes. Then she bought it without any second thoughts. I was happy about that (LOL), hahaha!!!

Thanks to my Aunt she was my saviour in disguise. Well, it had been a great combination with my long sleeves and my shoes...She bought a gift!


Well, 14 days to go before Christmas!

It was 1:30 pm at HR 209 when I had my RE112 and our professor wasn't present. It happened that he wasn't present but there was a substitute for him. The called professor told us that our professor went out of school because of some reasons regarding the catechetical services at school. He told us that we should be in pair for this times activity, and so I have no choice but to be with Glennville. He used to be alone, not at all, but he also used to be so talkative and very loud. He was kind a lazy and "tamad". Duh! I have no choice but to do the task alone and so I did yet it was hard for me to search for parables in the bible. The professor told us to look for each 1 of us to look for a parable in the new testament. And so, my partner tried to search on the internet while me, busy looking and asking to my classmate where and what and finally I found it. I saw a parable about the two sons.

It was about a father who asked his sons to go to the vineyard to do some work. On the first son, he asked him and said Yes but didn't go. After that, he asked the other son and asked the same question he asked to the first. It said No, but went to the vineyard. Now who's the good son? The one who said yes but didn't go or the one who said no but went to the vineyard. Jesus said these to the prostitutes and workers, and they answered the one who said no and went to the vineyard. The Jesus your right. Now I cant really remember the other details but thats the story.

The story was great and inspiring. If I were to choose which of the two, I would like to be the one who said no and went because even though he said no he tried to go. I want to be like that. ^_^...
I want to help not in words but in actions.


15 days before Christmas!

"Is it alright for people to commit mistakes?"
serious question asked by a nobody

Just this morning I woke up very badly, with a different mood and unusual aura and trying to put myself into the real me but I can't do it for no reason I guess. It was already 7:20 in the morning when I went to school and only have 10 minutes before the first bell ( I had my 1st class at 7:30 am). While walking through the what we call Alumni Walk, I saw a friend who was staying on a bench and I asked her,"Did the 2nd bell rang?". She said yes and I have no way to go into the subject. That was a crap! And then something went inside my mind, this was my first absent in a subject and I am not used to it, I feel like a lazy nobody who doesn't care about his life. Then I decided to go on an internet cafe just in front of the school. After some few minutes, a friend of mine who was my classmate on that subject too was late also. I received a message from my phone and I was him asking me if what were we doing inside the room and is our professor present this time? I told him that I was in the internet cafe just in front of the school then he went there.

After taking the lunch I had my 12:30pm class, my English 2. There was a discussion of the new lesson and there was a recitation. I recited but I had a wrong answer, I feel so stupid that time. Just a simple question I can't answer. What a s***! I feel like a failure person. Well, I just ignored it and continued the subject. Then I had my 1:30pm class which was RE112 (Religious Education) on the next building then I had no class. After the class I saw a friend who was just on the stairs, going down to go to the canteen. I came with them and had some chit chat with them. We talked about things and it came to the point that she told me something I really wanted to know. Just when I knew it, I really felt that I was the most stupid person who was called the "trying hard". And then, the first bell of 3:30pm rang they already had their classes and me, I went to an internet cafe to update my accounts and relax on playing some games.

Just after the relaxation, I went home with those foolish thoughts on my mind. I was confused and trying to empty my mind but I can't ignore it, it keeps getting worse and many ideas and thoughts were going inside my stupid mind. I hate my mind when it does like that.

When I went home, I felt like I wasn't home. I feel like I was still in the school , trying to close my mind to things that goes inside it. I feel like my head is bursting, then I went to sleep.

As I woke up, I had this bad dream. Well, the words were still on my mind but its not worst like a while ago. Speaking of it, the topic that my friend and I were talking about was about a comment or opinion about me. About how I act, speak and move, those were the stupid things they've been looking and talking about. The way I act, speak and move were all mistakes.

For me, that wasn't a mistake because this is me. Well, its the way they look at me and thats it. But then, hiding it or not sharing it to me was a mistake. I never realized that, that was me. Well, no one is perfect and I'm just human.

"Its not ok... I guess."

The 17th day of December was an unusual and weird one. It was a Monday morning where I woke up badly, very badly. Compared the past few days of December, that was the most and weirdest thing and day ever. First of all, I had a bad night last night. "Hindi ko man lang nasulit yung get together namin, that was a "CRAP". Grabe! Another thing, I had a busy day. From school, then to my sister, then to mall then to my friends. WOW! I was a multitasker, the boy who had many tasks in the same time.

Well, it wasn't just like that. I haven't updated my blog, friendster, plurk and haven't played my Cabal online. I hate that thing!

Well, maybe those were just "Challenges". Well, those were just tasks but I also had this creepy and weird signs and moments.

I saw the "Moon", it was very creepy. I was at Lagao when I saw it, it was covered with dark clouds and there were no stars at all. And another was, the scenario were like those in horror movies. AWOOOO!!! Waahhh, grabe...

At eto pa. I saw this sunset very weird also. It had orange clouds and the moon came very early, at maybe 4pm. The moon was so small, that all the clouds were like going into it. Creepy as what you thought but its cute also. And the most and very creepiest thing and weirdest thing I ever had that day, was that, while seeing those things there have been cold and weird winds and breezes. Gosh! I feel like I'm in a horror film.

Well, creepy yet I enjoyed!

!7 days to go!

( The person just beside the person in
front of me was just standing, ready to go out )

( Also a friend of my friend, fixing his things )

( The person just on front of me didn't noticed
that he was being captured too... ^_^ )

It was my Math time when I had these photos. I was having my lettering moment when a friend of mine gets my phone and grabs a picture of her. Then after she poses and catches her photo I thought of capturing my hand made lettering of sasisto.

I had many angles of this yet it were messy because my Professor was looking at the two of us, straightly. It was fun, because while our Professor was having his 5 minute sitting before the bell the two of my friends were laughing because of our friend also. Then our Professor went near to us and asked us what are we laughing about then we told him all about what we are laughing about. Then he smiled and said the two of you are already going crazy. We laughed and laughed until we came out of the room laughing.

Hey going back to the photos, those doesn't have good capture because I was a having some timing for my Professor not to look at us.

PASAWAY!!!

( A friend of mine while raising the "nakakahiya" sign
that I made )

( I made this because nakakahiya ang ginawa ko! )

While we were having out Math time at Tuesday 1:30 pm at the fourth floor I had the most "nakakahiyang" role. We had our assignment and then we had this 1km = 1.609 m. I thought that the 1.609 was 1,609 m. And so when we had the board work, I told our professor that the answer was wrong especially the convertion. My professor was in a shock and told me that it was right. But then I still insisted until I realized that I was wrong. I was very ashamed of what I had done. And then after that moment, I made this lettering of "nakakahiya" at a piece of coupon bond and made fun of it. Gosh! Shame on me... Its so nakakahiya!!!

Tawa talaga ng tawa ang kaklase ko, lalong lalo na ang teacher ko... Huwaattt???!!

At least no, alam ko na kung anong mali ko...

( A view from the tree house )

( The so-called Dome in our school... )

( The 1st half of the Covered Area: Sepak Takraw Court
and Taekwondo Gym )

( The other half of the Covered Area: Basketball Area )

As I went down the vehicle, I saw an high school teacher on front of the school. It was my Physics teacher in high school and at the same time she was our adviser ( LOL ). Before entering the school you must encounter first the "warriors" of the gate, the guards. As I enter the gate, the guard checks the ID and the bag with all their efforts in inspection of our things. At last I was already inside the dome when the bell rang. I quickly hurried to my classroom, and luckily our professor wasn't their yet, thank God. And after some few minutes there our teacher coming right to our room with an undefined mood. Duh! Their was never a discussion of the lesson but the discussion of the late comers ( I was nearly to that stage ^_^ ).

After the bell rang me and my friend Tabby went to the Alumni Walk to look for my another friends Frances. There I saw her with her sisters laptop, then after some several minutes we went to the tree house to have a relaxation. Then she studied their while me and Tabby keeps on laughing.

We took our lunch and went back to the school. I had no class anymore after that 2:30 class and so I went to my friend Frances who was in the Covered Area having their P.E. It was kind a boring their, I had nothing to do but to wait her. At last their P.E class was over.

I was really tired when I went home after having some celebration of my niece's birthday. Then I went to sleep.

Hey! I got this pictures while I was on our trip at the school. ^_^...
