Finally!

At long last!

For almost two months of remaining idle and not have been able to start working, I finally found a company were I would be able to finally start my On-the-Job Training (OJT). I’m so happy today as I started my OJT in a printing press! Legacy Sales and Printing Press is where we in our student publication publish our magazines, newsletter and folio for almost 5 years now, and I never thought that I would end up having my OJT there. Though I have thought about applying there earlier, but because I preferred to work in a company which is related to my course Information Technology, I didn’t apply there at first. Unfortunately, I went to several companies, hoping to be accepted immediately, but then I failed. I even went to Concentrix, a call center company here in Cagayan de Oro City but still they never called me whether I would be accepted o not. ( It’s such a shame I wasn’t accepted thee, I would have been so much interested working there as a call center agent…sigh) then I came to a point where I was so anxious about not having been able to start my OJT yet, and it was already in the middle of December. (Goodness!) I told my close friend about my problem because I was already very sad about my situation, and then she helped me without a doubt. She called Legacy and asked the manager if they accept OJTs at this time. It was already December 23, 2010, and majority of my classmates are almost done with our 180-hour OJT period, while me? I haven’t started yet. So, the following week my friend and I went to Legacy and looked for their manager, and without a doubt, she accepted me immediately!

I was surprised with here immediate decision, but then, I was very very happy to hear that she accepted me immediately. Then she asked when I would want to stat, then I told here, “anytime ma’am!” Then my friend butt in and said “Tomorrow!” immediately. So the manage said hat would be better, and that was fine with me, because the sooner I would start the better!

So today, December 29, 2010, I began my fist day of wok at Legacy, and it was fine… so far. I wasn’t given many tasks today...yet…maybe because I’m new to the company and still have to adjust with the environment as well as with the people around. The first thing that was in my mind when I started working this morning was if ever I would be able to wok with the kind of job elated to my field or not. Then later on, I realized that I would work as one of the layout artists, which I never really expected. (gosh!) Am I going to deal with Adobe Indesigns, Photoshop and Coreldraw?! I’m not that good in Photoshop, and I don’t know much about using InDesigns, and worse…Coreldraw! God please help me!

Well then, whatever job they will be assigning to me in the upcoming days, I am ready to experience and learn all of it as well. I just hope I can do all of it!

Photo sessions: Press work

Chris Rice

When did you fall

Amusing

I took the following photos in an overnight press work at the residence of Mrs. Maristela Binongo-Sy, the moderator of The Trailblazer, the official student publication of Mindanao University of Science and Technology. After several hours spent editing and encoding articles, we managed to take a break and capture some of the moments we had:

This is John Chris, popularly known in the publication as well as with his friends as "Nohj". He is one of our contributors.=)

This is Ma'am Maristela, our moderator. She was editing at this moment.

My closest friend on the org.....Roselyn...you can simply call her "Roro". She was our Managing Editor - Finance.

This is Angelly Delfino, our publication secretary.

Meet Mikey, everyone's favorite dog!:)

What's all the emotion Nohj?

Smile naman dyan gelai..hehehe..:)

Are you studying Roselyn? or editing? or making an article?...hmmm...

This is Carina, our ultimate photojournalist in the publication...(not me!)...hehehe.

Do you know who took this photo?...

None other than...

MYSELF!:D

I took this shot inside my room without needing help from anybody else, I just set the timer of the camera I used then I just pose in front of it, then voila! I never expected it would look good ( isn't it?) and that I would perfectly fit inside the frames of the picture. I feel like a model myself in this picture, and to think I myself took it and not a professorial photographer. 

Then, I made some editing with the help of Adobe Photoshop and presto! It's perfect!...hehehe...well, of course, lots of my friends complemented me on this picture in my Profile Pictures in Facebook...(conceited?)...lolz.:)

When Did You Fall in Love With Me?

This song reminds me of someone special and very important to me. Though i haven't found the official video of this music (or maybe there really isn't), I chose to post this one because it's kinda cute since the video displays a slideshow of animated Harry Potter main characters namely Harry, Hermoine and Ron. I love listening to this song over and over again. I love its lyrics, so meaningful. I first listened to this song when I visited the place of that "special someone", and I really think this song perfectly fits how my "special someone" fell for me.:)

Acrostic by Drazen Evilla

Angels and Demons

A holy being with white robes – a friend, a guardian, and a messenger

Never has he failed to help you and save you in all your misfortunate events

God has sent them to protect every living soul in the world

Every action you do, he brings you to what is good and what is right

Looking over every mortal – this haloed, white-winged creature

Singing melodic songs and blowing their trumpets above the skies

Dark he is indeed - very horrifying, extremely wicked, and totally cruel

Every time he brings you into wrong and bad deeds, he laughs so hard

Many people have been deceived by him – this two horned, tailed creature

On every failure, misfortune and tragedy, they are always victorious

No matter how you want do things right, he always devastate them

Summoned by their master, lurking within their fiery lair

The Art of Loneliness

  

Demi lovato

Don't forget

Don't forget

         The Art of Loneliness

Here I am again, dissolved in this false impression.

Sitting all alone and feeling empty, beneath this one-tree hill,

While my heart sank so low, my mind starts to wander,

Into the sweetest memories of you and I.

I let out a sigh to flush out all this emptiness,

And I glance at the expanse of this breathtaking horizon I see,

Where the clouds seemed innocent and the tree branches wave farewell,

While the wind blows softly and the blood-red sun dies.

All this things only reminded me of the two of us,

Those times when I’ve been your knight-in-shining-armor,

But I know, that no promises we’ve made have been fulfilled,

And now, my soul has been imprisoned in this nothingness.

It seems like I could hear and feel nothing from inside,

Except for the weakening beat of my shattered heart,

And yet again, I see myself at this very place and moment,

Feeling so hopeless, faded, and ashamed.

The pain you’ve left bleeds into my vessel,

As my pride continue to tear me apart,

How long will I be stuck in this silly enchantment?

Like I am bound in such an unknown curse.

But the reality is right in front of me—you were gone,

And I know even time can’t change what has been said and done…

Someday, somehow I will realize you’re not the one,

That my fate has planned for me to share my whole life with.
