Congratulations Mela!

Sunday, January 10, 2010


Good morning! I am really excited on what will happen today. My good friend Mela is gonna be married with a guy I haven't met before. But I'm sure he's gonna be a good one since Mela is too. My twin sis is going to be a part of the entourage and she was conscious about her dress and I told her not too because she is too thin in my standards. It is going to be nice. My best friend will pick me up later at a coffee shop so we can go there together, he ain't into parties I guess.

Hmmm... well this is too early for me. I think I should get some more sleep. Imagine I woke up around 4am because of my writing itches. I really can't help telling stories huh?! LOL Well I am living my life on am edge and I hope I don't fall off. The one above there is helping me obviously and I am enjoying my ride. I hope this will be another wonderful day just like the other ones before this. =)

Maybe if I think of another thing to do I'll be making good girls go bad later this evening. Ha-ha!

With those parting words, I wish Mela and her husband a wonderful life together! Congratulations!

The Philippines Credit Card Debt


I have been taking a look at what the Filipinos have been doing in this day and age because of the fact that there has been a very alarming increase of credit card debt in this country. We need Consumer Credit Counseling and seek the help of economic experts. At the alarming rate of 20 percent just this 2009, there has been significant increase that would cause worry to financial institutions because PINOYS have not been able to pay back their credit card debt that much and it will probably continue to grow unless there are certain changes in the financial guidelines set by government agencies or the constitution.

This has been the dilemma that the banking sector is facing head on because there are probably no consecration camps times considered for people who end up in debt from private corporations. In the next year, there has to be some way the President to help this industry so he could set stricter guidelines on people who literally borrow money and destroy their credit rating. This could be very detrimental to the success of a worker who does 8 hours a day in the office. Without proper guidance and management, we would end up as a nation who depends on debt and never go back to the first world country status we were in like before. I bet MARCOS will laugh in his grave if that happens; so make sure you take matters in you hands and go for a non profit organization to help you fix your credit card woes today. It pays to be financially stable even if you are young.

I Shot Mr. and Ms. UE!

Saturday, January 09, 2010

This day was great. I was able to shoot people from my beloved Alma Mater and boy did I enjoy it! The University of the East was still almost the same as when I last saw it but a lot of things had been added to the facilities that we used to have. A whole 10 or 8 story building was on the center where the old shop was and it was complete with fully air conditioned rooms, major rooms for organizations, a huge library on the topmost floor. elevators and more helipads for you know who. I had a nice time reminiscing and recalling everything around that campus. I even got the others interested about what I knew of the place when I was there. It was a really special day again and it seems that I am getting so luckier every minute. Is this all because I tried to help people and everything is returning to me tenfold? I feel so lucky sometimes that I am quite afraid that these all would be taken back from me. I wonder how this story will end but I know there should never be a repercussion to what I am doing today, I should never even think about it.



Together with my co photographers from the D60krew, we shot people who were participants of the Mr. and Ms. UE pageant. They were all nice don't get me wrong but I think there were more good looking people in our time. I would not want to point fingers but if you really saw the batch of contestants that joined before there was really a huge difference. Call me biased but if you really saw them on the previous format, it could have been so much better. People then only had 1 set of contestants to send so the college they belong to fully support them. The format now had everybody else to join and got them to even pair up with other colleges so it is like a free for all thing. The drawback is only their friends would probably support them now. I hope they know what they are doing!

I went back to Mama Lengs which is a not so posh place to hang out but boy they had the best pork chops and tapsilog when I was in college. I really missed eating there so I went ahead and invited the guys to that place and check it out, only to find out that the other 2 branches already closed down. Mama Leng had to survive with only one and it was okay for their business to flourish throughout these years. At least they are still there no matter how much ketchup I had on my plate! Hahaha, I wish I had my friends over too when I got my porksisilog ravaged in less than 10 minutes. It was a nice thing to do when all I do now is review restaurants and the only thing that made me happy was cold rice and a slice of salted pork chop LOL! It was a great day for me and I hope you guys have one too!

Show My University Fashion Photography


Tomorrow marks another special event in my entire life; I will be going back again to my University. I was contacted for my expertise in portraiture because they were planning to have all the contestants of Mr. and Ms. UE be shot and chosen a winner for the Mr. and Ms. Photogenic Award. I know it was going to be a great shoot even on short notice and I will be getting my work posted on site. That is one good advice for the wise home owner for this month.

My photography has definitely taken me places that I have never been before but this has been another good twist to my story. I will be employing another new work flow for this set and sure enough I want to have a different form factor for this one since it is going to be surely memorable. I learned on an article that getting a work flow arranged before post processing is vital to the success of photography techniques employed on a subject. It can make or break you in most instances. This is where the last thing to enhance your photo happens and without a proper process you would not be able to get better output. I love photography and this is the time I will be showing my University how this is done. I am excited to let them know how I have been faring in this field. This is the time to show them my passion and the vast things I have learned about Zone Focusing. Here we go!
