An eye for an eye…



Who would forget that tragic event last August 23 of last year? When an ex-policeman hijacked or rather say, kept a bus hostage for 12hours at the Quirino Grandstand where many of the passengers didn’t make it alive? Wherein, the tourist bus passengers were all international, and some were Chinese.
Right now, Philippines were grieving for the lost of 3 Filipinos who were sentenced to death by China. Many actions were taken especially by Vice-President Jejomar Binay to prevent this from happening but China had closed their eyes to negotiation. They really were eager to do this even if many Christian groups and associations plead them not to…
Mosaic Law tells of a rule, “an eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth”. Is this what happened in our current situation? A country taking avenge of other country because some of their people had bad experience with them. Would we really end this way? Who would have known this will happen… Who would have thought that this could happen…

A Tragic Happening...



It is a big problem if a country wages war against another country. But, it would be a greater problem if a country, a nation will face such conflict inside its own boundary.
Libya... A Muslim country who is currently facing a tremendous problem today, a war within its territory. Its leader, a long time dictator, Moammar Gaddafi, stands out to his idealism even if the whole nation oppose.
UN have decided to help, US did also stood out for the people of Libya who wishes to be freed upon the dictatorship of the so-called leader. Many innocent people were affected and been victimized by the situation.
How long will this lasts? Who knows? As the Muslims say, "Inshallah!", or as we say it, "God's will be done"...

The Worst Has Yet To Come...







Earth is now deteriorating because of men... Technologies everywhere, advancement of men to make life easier. Yes, surely this helps a lot to mankind but the thing is, nature is being destroyed. And nature won't keep silent about it.
Right now, calamities are now happening all over the world, one after another... The most recent was the tragic happening in one of the most advance country in the world, Japan, who experienced an 8.9magnitude earthquake and a very huge tsunami at the same time. With the advance technology they have, who would have thought that they will end up like the lowest of all? Technology did helped them in the past, but not at the moment that they really need to be warned for future happenings. Men, children, old people, doctors, scientists and everyone is included to the tragedy, no one is exempted...
When are we going to learn our lesson? Let us try to act accordingly, to somehow lessen whatever future circumstances might bring... And lastly, let us pray to God, for help, guidance and wisdom.
"In Him, everything is possible..."

What I wanted to be...

We had our mass communication field trip last March4-5, 2011. Students who were currently taking up Video and Television Productions and Internship were required to go. Though we took off a little late because of some transportation problems (I don’t want to blame the travel agency because I felt that they want to give their best), basically this changes the whole itinerary.
Instead of going to Makati Palace Hotel after eating breakfast at Jollibee Harbour Square in Manila, we have gone to our first itinerary which is Greater Media Arts or what is well known to be GMA. Everyone is excited in going there but to our great disappointment, the network seemed to be not well accommodating, sending us to two not well knowledgeable facilitator, who either tell us that they don’t know the answer because it’s not their job (how come they’re doing that?) or tell us things that make their network stands out from the rival network. All in all, it’s a big mistake that we have gone to that network. It just made us compare how good their competitor is in terms of PR compared to them…
After which we had our lunch at Traumway in Timog where we ate at our heart’s extent before we went to our second location, Full Circle Communications Inc. A Public Relations outfit who told us how PR is essential to a public figure/company. The people there were all friendly, and accommodate us in all possible way. Surely they know their craft and you can see that they love their job because all of our questions were answered.
The next morning, we visit Unitel Productions. They told us about what they are doing, from the beginning to end. They are one of the biggest production company who makes great commercials not only here in the Philippines but also in other countries. This made my day!
From that moment on, I know what I want… I know in myself I’m not that talented as a person in terms of dancing, singing and whatsoever, but now I know what I can do. I want to be with Unitel Productions, who can edit videos and produce a very competitive output. I want to learn everything about video and audio editing.
What my goal right now is, to be a great editor that will be known in the near future…
So help me God…
