Why hello there.
Just had a very nice long talk with my AUTHOR1 prof.
Apparently, there's like8 Photography profs who were kicked out of our school because of some reports.
WOW.

Anyway, to other news....
November 23-24 consisted of us(Gella, Khat, Nana Sef & I) working on our practical test for VIDPRD2.
The practical test: Watch Harry Potter 7, pick a scene from the film, then recreate it.
Imagine our grief when we found out that we were to have another shoot, when we didn't borrow any sort of video equipment that time since our prof didn't tell us that we're gonna have a practical test.
However, we were lucky enough to have borrowed 4 red heads, 2 video cams, a few stands and what not. The stands were quite useful cause we used it as a bar to our lovely tent. Oh la la ~

On with the story...
We left the school at 10 p.m. and arrived at Las Pinas at about quarter to 11, if I reckon correctly.
We were supposed to shoot at Gella's house there, but since she forgot and/or doesn't know where exactly it is... We were lucky that Nana's aunt was very welcoming and invited us to shoot there instead. Thank you, Nana's aunt, for taking care of us all the time. You are loved. ♥

The shoot was very tiring, although Gella and Khat were mostly the ones who were working on the set. I was, instead of helping out, chatting and webcam-ing with people.
I did help out after awhile.
We drank a cup of coffee, then Red Bull to stay awake.
The set took like 4 hours of set-up to finish.
We started shooting at about 2 a.m., I think?
Anyway, we finished the shoot at about 7 a.m.
Basically, we didn't sleep. Well, I didn't really sleep.
Went back to Manila and arrived at school at about 9:20 a.m.
Was a sit-in at August's PHOTOJOURNAL class, then went to watch
The Prestige at the SDA theater on the 12th floor.
The movie was awesome. I was confused at first, but as the film went by, I suddenly understood the few stuff that I was confused about.
LOL.
Lovely, there were like 5 people who tripped going up the theater stairs.
I wish they'd open the stair-lights, or whatever it's called.
There was even this gay who tripped like 3 times and he/she was super noisy that this girl got angry and told him to keep his mouth shut. :))
Anyway, still had fun yesterday even though my bed was practically calling me at home.
2DANIM2 class was fine... We watched this nice animated film and a documentary.
CADVIS2 class was... well, I slept at like 7:58 p.m. in class.
I didn't know that I was really sleeping cause I thought I was half awake.
Imagine my shock when I saw that most of my classmates were gone.
No one even bothered to wake me up. :((

Here's the link to the Harry Potter video:

And.... here's a song that I've recently discovered awhile ago, even though I've played this game before... I wonder why I've never noticed it until just recently. :|

11-10-10: Wednesday

Finally got to have a cup of one of my favorite drinks ever, after months and months of horrible waiting. Meh. I just love this drink so much! ♥ Too bad it's a seasonal drink though, but I guess that's what's really makes it special. Apparently, when it's not of the season, there's a very close alternative drink for it. Forgot what particular drink though, must ask Carla again. :|

That day, I was with Carla and Juls at Baliwag. Carla was forcing me to eat chicharon, but she did not succeed on her efforts on making me eat cholesterol.

Went to Starbucks Torre with them for awhile. Got our drinks then proceeded back to SDA.

Well now, the walk back to SDA wasn't exactly that nice... as always.
Mistah Juls had the brightest idea of deciding to use the very narrow way on the left, which made it very hard for me because I was wearing heels of 4-inches.

CONVENIENTLY, in the middle of said walkway, there was a metal engine of some sort, then a very very small walkway, then a puddle. Very nice. Basically, the very narrow walkway was then divided into 3 small parts in which only 1 part was available for passing. I'll leave that up to your imagination because I'm not very good at explaining stuff.

It was before I saw the said obstacle that Mistah Juls said from behind me, "Monica, I'm so scared for you right now." Then, I saw the mini pathway and muttered a... "Oh shit."

Btw, I got through that alive... Yeah well, I'm not a typing ghost here, am I?
I would say I didn't trip, but then I would be lying. I did trip. But, only a bit.
I swear.

Got to hang out with Anna, Carla & Juls inside the student lounge.
Hoorah!
I'd most likely go to school earlier on Wednesdays just to hang out with them.
Had a lotta fun. 8D .... even though the tripping part wasn't that nice.

2DANIM2

Can you say freezing? That room needs some major adjustments ASAP! I mean, how are you supposed to draw when it's freakin' freezing inside??? :| Meh. Oh right, I remembered then that I forgot to give my walk cycle to my prof... for midterms. But but, Carla and the others didn't give theirs. :| It's so weird. :| Same prof, just different schedule. This shall continue to bother me till I see my midterm grade. The agony of waiting.

Gella & I reported about Straight ahead actions & Pose-to-Pose actions. We reported quite fast. I bet we finished in about 5 minutes or so.
Then, after all the reports were done, we proceeded on watching Disney's Frog Princess. Didn't exactly want to watch it again, so I went out of the room a couple of times.

CADVIS2

We didn't do anything other than animating our midterm plate. Yes, that's about it.
But first, a boring lesson ensued then that. Yes, that. K.

11-12-10: Friday

VIDPRD2
Watched our Horror films then... dismissal. O_O

Waited for 2 hours with Khat, Gella, Nana, Hiro & Carlos in the caf.

3DANIM2

Just passed our midterm plate and we were free to go. :|

Meh.

Well, I don't know what I'm supposed to do now. I'm pretty darn bored. I don't want to sleep yet. :|

Oh yeah! Started watching this series called, Pretty Little Liars.


Quite nice so far. :) I like it. :)
