Summer Internship Plan

I remember I stated on one of my blog entries that I wanted to work with Mr. Jason Magbanua. And here's some details :)

Well for my introduction, I always wanted to be a somebody. Somebody is equals to any unique job for me. hehe! Yung trabahong hindi madalas ginugusto ng mga ordinaryong tao. A job that you work for passion, not for the money. Yung tipong pag tinignan ka lang on your corporate dress, makikita kagad na may kakaiba sayo. Tapos pag nalaman pa nila yung mga tinrabaho mo, Boom! Astig pala tong taong to! And I believe, that's the job of an artists. I'm not saying that i'm so perfect artist, nakapag-aral lang :) If you knew me, you know what I'm saying. I wanted to be have that ideal job to be an ideal person for my ideal man (at naisingit pa ang lovelife.haha!) Since I took plenty of courses in some plenty of schools.  Well not so plenty, pina-oa ko lang para cool!haha. (WTH this is becoming so redundant). 

When I was younger, I wanted to be an Flight Attendant, a Pilot, a Aircraft Mechanic, (a singing sensation. Chos!) a Tattoo Artist, a Photographer and a part-time Blogger-slash-Dj on a cool bars in the Metro. Idol ko kasi si Saab Magalona. lol! Parang ang sarap ng trabaho niya. Earning money with a job that you love. And she's famous in everything she does - except for dramas she's into now.

Anyways, in relation to my course, neto ko lang narealize that I want to be in a production industry. Yung tipong gumagawa ng mga cool movies, commercials, etc. I wanted to be that somebody behind those awesome things that people adore. Ang cool nun diba!? Then nakilala ko ang isang Jason Magbanua. Well not personally, pero through his works on tv. He made some videos for some celebrities for their weddings. Like Judy-Ryan, Kristine-Oyo, Rica-and her husband to name a few. So I think maybe I can learn a lot from this awesome man behind those lovely wedding videos. I searched for Jason Magbanua last month and found his website where his wedding portfolio posted. Luckily, I found his email and sent him a letter asking if he's offering an internship program for a student like me. Tsaka malapit lang din kasi yung office nila compared sa ABS-CBN na friend ng professor namin. Somewhere in Makati lang. Sakto!haha. 


After 2 or 3 days, he sent me a reply asking for my resume. How cool is that!?


Well as of now, hindi ko parin napapasa yung resume ko. Nagiintay pa kasi ako ng workshops and seminars from school. Pang-dagdag narin sa resume ko.  Plus, di pa pala ako nakakapagpa-picture.  teehee! Eto palang kasi yung nakalagay sa resume ko. Di ko pa naeedit yung references ko.


Oh diba! Takaw page yung educational background ko!haha. Haay nako bahala na! Internship palang naman daw to sabi ni Ate Maeh kaya hindi ko daw kaylangang magworry sa seminars. Sa Manila Bulletin kaya? Layout artist or Photographer? Para Angel Locsin lang ang peg?haha. Bahala na si Lord. Sana makapasok ako sa company ni Jason Magbanua at nang  makagraduate na ko. In Jesus name, magagawa ko lahat ng pinapangarap ko :)

An Officially Awesome Movie!


Watched Unofficially Yours yesterday, February 19, 2012, with my friends Dawn, Benjie and the no.1 fan of John Lloyd Cruz, Joseph.haha! And I must say, this movie really hit me! First time to. First time ko ding gustuhing manuod ulit after ng isang pelikula. Ang gaganda pa ng mga lines nila. Yung tipong ang sarap sabihin sa taong karapatdapat! lmao.

Unofficially Yours (2012)

 Ang ganda ng movie sobra! I love how the director, Cathy Carcia-Molina, shows on her every movie yung mga moves na sobrang corny for ordinary people. Gets niyo? And she also showcased John Lloyd's sexyness in his very effortless way. While Angel Locsin, well given na yun na sexy siya, pero iba yung performance niya compared sa iba niyang palabas that I believe siya lang makakagawa para sa role - naging idol ko tuloy siya for 2hours.haha! Ang fresh ng itsura niya ngayon. Parang yung sa Click days - her as the boyish,Charlie. Ang ganda niya sa buong pelikula. Nakaka-asar bakit siya lang may ganung ganda.hahaha!

John Lloyd Cruz played the character of Mackie Galvez, a guy who've been hurt many times but still ready to fall for someone. In contrast to John Lloyd's role, Angel Locsin played the character of Princess Brincencio. At dun mabubuo ang storya. Panuorin niyo nalang!haha. Nung una, akala ko may pagka Friends with benifits and No String Attached yung peg ng movie. Pero hindi, ang layo! Maybe same concept, pero sobrang ka-level ng two Hollywood movies yung Unofficially Yours. Ang oa ko pero nagagandahan talaga ako sa movie. Pinanuod ko lang siya dahil kay John Lloyd and I've seen his movie in cinemas (except sa mga Sarah-Lloydie films.haha!) pero eto yung pinaka tumatak sakin second was My Amnesia Girl. Nadala lahat ng cast yung mga role nila specially Panying. Personal Assistant yata siya ni John Llodyd na naging instant celebrity. Here's its official railer


I may say na nakarelate ako sa movie (YUCKS!haha.) specially sa character ni Ces (YUCKS again!). Pero hindi ako takot masaktan ah!haha (YUCKS for the 3rd time). At hindi din ako nagpaasa. Oh YES!! You read it right! HINDI TALAGA! You people just never heard my side kaya hindi niyo talaga maiintinihan na hindi ako nagpaasa! And I dont even have any plans to share it or explain myself!hahaha. (YUCKS to me forever)

Anyways, this isn't my lovestory. I'll share to you some of my favorite scenes.

First was after Cess and Mackie made love tapos gumising si Cess habang nagigitara si Mackie singing Binibini. Ang sweet!! Parang ang sarap gumising nang ganun.



 Second, yung pinagluto ni Mackie ng breakfast si Cess, ang sexy ni Angel dun grabe!! Tapos ginagaya ni Angel yung favorite expression ng barkada ni Mackie "HMM???" *liyad*.

Third, yung scene na ineexplain ni Cess kung bakit hindi niya kayang mahalin si Mackie. This scene shows how a strong woman breaks down to the so-called love.haaay...

Fourth, yung sinapak ni Mackie yung ex-boyfriend ni Cess nung nalaman niya kung bakit niya iniwan si Cess. Mejo naiiyak ako sa scene na yun pero pinipigilan ko lang!haha.

And lastly, yung ending, nagsulat si Mackie tungkol sa kung pano binago ni Cess yung buhay niya "Mata sa mata, Puso sa Puso". Then pinuntahan ni Cess si Mackie sa apartment niya at hinarana ng Ikaw ang aking mahal - peyborit ko pamandin yun!haha. Tapos nagsorry siya. Kyot!




Here's some of my favorite line from the movie:

"Pano mo malalaman kung sino ang taong nakalaan sayo kung magsusurender ka sa bawat sakit na mararamdaman mo"
                                                                                                               - Techie Agbayani

"Mamahalin kita ng buo. Aalagaan kita. Payagan mo lang ako. Pwede bang tayo nalang?"
                                                                                                               - Mackie Galvez

"Hindi mo lang alam, gustong-gusto kitang mahalin, kaso natatakot ako. Natatakot akong masaktan. Kasi habang lumalaki ang pakiramdam ko na minamahal na kita, lumalaki din and takot sa puso ko. Takot na masaktan muli."
                                                                                                               - Cess Bricencio


"Kahit gaano pa kalaki ang pagmamahal na ibigay mo, hindi 'yun hadlang para sa isang tao  na saktan ka." 
                                                                                                                - Cess Bricencio

"Gusto kong sabihin sayo na higit ka pa sa isang libong bagay na kayang tanggihan ng isang taong katulad ko"
                                                                                                                 - Mackie Galvez

And the 3 of the most remarkable line for me was...

"Oo nga naman, kahit basagin ko pa yung mukha ng gagong yun hindi ko naman mababago yun eh. Hindi ko matatanggal yung takot jan sa puso mo. Kasi Cess, ikaw lang ang makakagawa nun eh. Ako, ang kaya ko lang gawin ay ang mahalin ka. Ang maghintay sayo at umasang isang araw kakayanin mo nang magmahal ulit. Pero 'wag kang magalala, hindi kita pipilitin kasi naiintindihan kita."

                                                                                                                 - Mackie Galvez

"Sorry kung natagalan ah. Alam kong napagod kita. Pero Mackie, hayaan mo akong pawiin lahat ng pagod mo sakin." 
                                                                                                                  - Cess Bricencio



"TANGINA! ANG SAKIT EH. TAGOS. WASAK!"
                                                                                                                - Cess Bricencio

Basta panuorin niyo nalang! Promise ang ganda! Kayang ipanlaban sa mga korean romantic-comedy. Lahat makakarelate. Baka maging idol niyo rin si Angel Locsin for 2 hours. Plus, her tops.. so gorgeous! Oh and her red stilettos !.. haha! Those peole na nagmamahal, nasaktan, umaasa, nagpapaasa at mga walang pagasa!  After you see this movie, feeling mo ang sarap-sarap mainlove.haha! Iisipin mo na sana may Mackie Galvez na nageexist sa paligid mo.haha! So what the heck are you waiting for!? Go see the movie na!!! :D

Successful week


Spent my 2weeks working with our professors deadline for our plates on our majors. I don't want to call that a hellweek because I believe I was blessed for that whole week. 3D Modeling, Web Design, Video and Sound Production and Design and Photography. And then luckily, I made it through! Thanks to my Savior, Lord Jesus Christ. Hindi biro yung tapusin lahat ng midterms requirements - meaning from 1st day up to midterm exam- in 2 weeks. Those 3D Modeling activities, Sounds Production activities, Chinese Website, Radio Ad, Trailer for Video Production. Natapos ko naman siya except for Kinatay na sobrang matagal magrender. And here some of my works except for the photography, sa wed pa kasi yung pasahan so petiks muna :D

Web Design 


Mejo wala akong natulong dito.haha! wala din kasi akong balak maging Web Designer :)






I am so proud of my self. That's the first time I've worked for a project for 2 consecutive week without a lakwatsa and any complain. Full effort! Siguro kasi nageenjoy ako :) Specially sa Video production which I think I will pursue. One of our professors offer to help us find our internship. Sa mga magvivideo production daw, she has a friend from ABS-CBN but I don't like to work there. Not that i'm choosy. Pero ang layo. Papasok pa ko for my summer.  And now I sent an e-mail to one of the most prestige, awesome, greatest wedding videographer in the metro, Sir Jason Magbanua, my IDOL! He sent back a message telling me to pass my resume. AWYEAH!! I really pray that the genius Jason Magbanua can help me with my internship this summer.

In Jesus name, magiging successful to. Boom!

GCF


I just discovered that Dianilo and I have common factors. Way back then, We used to talk about our beloved province, Aklan. And as I remember, his family is from Kalibo - my family we're from Numancia.

He chatted me few minutes ago. Wala lang. Mangaasar nanaman. At nakakatawa...



Hahaha!! Ayun na nga, nagtanong ng tungkol sa valentines. Then suddenly, sumilip si Daddy. lol! nacurius siguro sa valtines na nabasa niya comming from a guy. Tapos tinanong niya, Sino yang Dianilo Ibabao na yan, Bem-Bem? and I was like Wth Daddy, wag mo kong paghinalaan sa taong yan. Chos!haha. Tapos sabi niya, taga Aklan ba yan? Tapos sabi ko Opo- kidding! I don't use po and opo with my parents.

 Tapos pinagtatanong niya na na kung ano-ano tungkol kay Dianilo. I asked him kamag-anak ba natin sila?. Tapos sabi niya hindi, mga kabarkada ko kasi yan sa Aklan dati. Sabi ko Taga Kalibo daw sila eh. Tapos sabi ni Daddy Hindi yan, mga taga Numancia yang mga Ibabao na yan. Si Dianilo naman tinadtad ko ng tanong, di naman nagreply. Tapos pinasearch sakin ni Daddy yung Numancia Hymn. Makikita ko daw dun yung Ibabao Public Library, sa Lolo't Lola daw nila yun. Taray! So I searched for it, and here it is..

Numancia Hymn
By: Dr. Jesse Macavinta Gomez                                                           

The composer was our Lolo, which happened to be our Granny's cousin. And please take time to skip to 1:24. There you will see the Ibabao Public Library, which my Daddy told me that it was owned by the Ibabao's. Bigtime! haha.



Wala lang. Natuwa lang ako! Wala akong mablog eh. Akala ko magiging magkamag-anak pa kami ni Dianoli eh.haha! Baka si Jason maging kamag-anak pa namin niyan??haha.
