Well, I have been literally spending hours in making these gifs. Making gifs is not hard actually, a little bit of Photoshop and you're done. The hardest part is uploading it to the social network and trying to maintain the quality.
Unfortunately, Tumblr has this rule that all gifs uploaded must be less than 1MB. Sigh. And the gif I made was over 2MB. Now, what? I've been trying for another couple of hours trying to make do with the...

Reflections: Interpersonal Communication
This article was originally a reflection paper submitted to Sir Wini Dagli, my instructor on DEVC70 (Interpersonal Communication) CDC, UPLB.
DEVC70 taught me things I’ll never know otherwise. It taught me to appreciate things I have always taken for granted. It made me know more about myself.
I believe that knowing oneself first is very essential to the work as a development communicator. This is because, we need to be better...

I believe
This is an activity for DEVC70. Getting a pen and a paper, and with an open-ended statement, "I believe..." write the first 20 things that would come into mind that would finish the sentence. You would be surprised to know the things you believed in, and the priority in which order you remembered them. Here's mine!
I believe...
...in the Lord God our savior.
...that people can do whatever they want as long as they
don’t...

A fail attempt at Visual Design
As part of my major (Educational Communication), we are required to take DEVC141 (Visual Design and Techniques). And apparently, I'm not that gifted with the arts. My drawing skills are on par with an elementary student, and my photoshop design skills are somehow near average.
For a bonus exercise, we are tasked to do a logo challenge. I am to create a logo for Tito Ding (a staff in Devcom), and his business of selling kropek.
And...

Confession of a Shopaholic 1
This is not a book review.
This is a confession. A confession of a shopaholic.
Well, I really don't know if i should be called a
"shopaholic". But then, I digress, if I cannot be called as a
shopaholic, then what am I? Nevertheless, let me tell you my tale.
Ever since my boyfriend and I broke up, I have some extra
money left. Though it's not that much. (Back then, that money was used for our
every weekend dates. lol) So now, every time I go to a mall, I always, always
bring out my ATM card (I always deposit my savings...

In an Attempt to Make Him Happy
Poem written on Sunday, January 23, 2011 at 8:41pm
If I remember it correctly, my ex-boyfriend needs to pass 5
poems about certain topics. And on our conversation, he happened to have asked
for my help. Being the willing victim girlfriend that wants to make her
boyfriend happy, I obliged and wrote a poem about the topic "nature".
But to make the long story short, in the end, he did not use
this. And thus, the irony is not lost on me: what a befitting title.
Forgotten and Forsaken
I have been walking endlessly

LSS Song: Payphone
And I'll always love this song cover.
Payphone by Tiffany Alvord. ♥
Her voice is soooo angelic, and this cover (for me, anyways) is the best!
Even better than the original.
Don't get me wrong. It's not that I don't likeMaroon5. Hell,
I love them! But this song has just been too mainstream for them. I mean, hey,
what happened to that classic vibes Maroon5 gives me whenever I hear
"Won't Go Home Without You" and "She Will...

Self-representation: Personal Logo
My very own personal logo.
This output is for my DEVC141 class - a personal logo. I really hoped I have portrayed myself well via this illustration.
I used a lipstick, a kissmark, and a heart at the end of my name. I wonder what people thinks about it? Haha. I wanted to show I'm a bit girly, kikay and quirky at times. Haha.

Reflections: Development Communication as a field of study
This article is originally a reflection paper submitted to one of my courses, DEVC70. I posted it here because I think it roughly provides an overview of what my course is and especially and what I think about it.
When I first entered
the college, I have no idea what course I am taking. I thought it was something
similar to Communication Arts, Mass Communication and BS English to some
extent. Indeed, I wrote this course in my choices because it has
‘communication’ in it. So...

TypARTgraphy
While the ever famous typography is artistic arrangement of different typefaces, font sizes, length and spacing, typARTgraphy is a play on the words typography and art. Basically it is the use of different typefaces, letters, colors etc., to create a visual art.
My DEVC141 teacher challenged us to do just this. So here's what I came up with:
This is a whale. Well, at least I intend it to be.
I used the lower case of the letter "L"...

Of Privacy and Misunderstandings
I should have been doing something more important than writing this blog entry. I should have been doing my 10-page narrative script due tomorrow.
But I couldn't help it. I know I wouldn't be able to concentrate if I forced myself to go acads mode.
This is mainly the reason why nowadays I prefer a personal diary. A personal diary would never, ever betray you. Plus, it isn't prone to misunderstandings. It's really sad that all the things...
An Open Letter to You. Yes You.
I rant.
Coz it's the only thing I can do.
I'm blue.
'Coz he left me for you.
Dear girl,
I think it's about time to address you. And I think it's about time that you know my side of the story.
Do you know what he said to me when he broke up with me? He said he's in love with somebody else. I was quite shocked, because I thought everything was fine between the two of us. In every way, I am clueless. Clueless that he fell out of...

A New Year’s Resolution
But... seriously? Haven’t all of us created a resolution but eventually failed in following so? Typical. Ningas Kugon.
So this year, I did not bother to create a long list of what I should do this year. But if what I’ve done is a “New Year’s Resolution” then so be it. I just committed myself to actually live by these.
This year, and hopefully, it will be carried on to the succeeding years (if the world will not end by Dec. 21...
