God gave me free time for a reason

And that is to do the loads of school & org work that Ateneo has been giving me. So much for a long weekend.

We didn’t have classes for 4 straight days but I wasn’t really able to enjoy this short vacation because I had so many things to do! Anyway, I’ve been working on some posters for AIESEC since I woke up this morning. I’m proud to say that I was able to finish 3 posters in 3 hours!! Wohooo ( I consider that as an improvement okay!) However, I only uploaded these two because I kinda don’t like how the other one looks. Sigh, I’m not really good at typography (which is why I don’t want to show the other poster) HAHA.

He left me and it hurt. But the fact that he didn’t even say goodbye or look back hurt me the most.

Something from “The Life of Pi”

We had our last area insertion for NSTP last Monday.

I’ve never been good with kids. I love to quarrel and talk back so that makes me the most incompetent person to handle frank and mischievous youngsters. So I was pretty nervous when I learned that I’m supposed to teach kids how to read and write for NSTP. I don’t hate kids but I think they don’t like me so yeah, the thought of dealing with kids for four whole hours every week troubled me! 

However, after being with these kids for several weeks, I realised that it’s fun being with these super kulit people after all! I learned to be patient, to be understanding and to be sensitive to their needs since I’m older (despite our small height difference). But surprisingly, there really was nothing to worry about because they were just fine and super fun to be with! My partners and I would teach them how to read and they would be really cooperative but honestly, most of the time was spent talking about their crushes and love lives (tsk, tsk, tsk, kids these days, haha!) 

Aaaah, I’ll miss these kids so much! :’(

Management X Fine Arts Student

Have I told you guys about this Advanced Graphic Design class I’m taking for my elective? If not, well, let me tell you that I’m finding it more and more difficult to comply with the requirements as time passes by.

Don’t get me wrong. I do enjoy my class and I really find our lessons interesting, fun and very helpful but having to juggle Accounting, Law and not to mention, THEO!!!! with having to think of a new design concept plus org work is seriously stressing the hell out of me! I’m thankful because God gave me so many things to do (and I think that’s a good thing) but I just can’t help but be jealous of those fine arts kids who have illustration, typography and painting classes instead of accounting, law or stat!!!

Anyway, here’s a homework I crammed last night because my hard disk died on me again (HUHUHUHU!!) so that means I lost all my files and precious applications! Thank God I was able to recover them! 

The Art of Wayfinding

Lance Wyman is an amazing artist (especially in creating consistent and super flawless icons!). Since our topic last last week is all about Environmental Graphic Design, we were asked to come up with a new way finding system for our country’s train stations. I chose MRT 3 since I’m more familiar with it’s routes. 

I’m not exactly proud of what I did but hey, at least I tried! In addition to that, I wasn’t able to make totems for each station since I really wanted to be able to pass this last night. Feeling kinda disappointed with myself for submitting something so incompetent.

I told you, we were meant to be.

Seriously craving for some authentic Japanese ramen right now.I hate being sick! :(

HOW I’LL BE SPENDING THE WEEKEND

I don’t ever regret studying in the Ateneo but still, why are we always loaded with so much school work every weekend?

THINGS TO PREPARE FOR THE UPCOMING WEEK:

  • Asian Histo Long Test on Monday
  • Angel Wars Shooting
  • Logo and LRT 2 Wayfinding System for my FA class
  • SA one-page paper patterned after Marthin Luther’s “I have a dream”
  • PE reporting
  • BABY THESIS TOPIC!!!!
Lucky me, the Ateneo has this thing of making their own holidays so I have no classes from Saturday to Tuesday next week! Wohoo, time to bum around again!
