Congratulations Jessica Sanchez for not only making it to the Top 2 but also for those awesome performances you give us every time you step on stage and thank you for allowing us to hear your angelic voice. This is only the start of your wonderful journey, you are born to become one of the greatest singers in your generation. Go Jessica Sanchez! looking forward to your first album! :D

oh and, congratulations to Phillip Phillips. bakit kasi ang poge mo pag kumakanta hahahaha :)

oh well,  kahit hindi siya nanalo sobrang proud parin kame sa kanya. Parang Charice Pempengco and Sam Concepcion lang yan. Hindi si Charice ang grand winner pero, sino ba ang nakilala sa buong mundo? kaya same with Jessica, with that kind of voice panigurado tumatak na siya sa lahat ng nakarinig at nakakita sa kanyang kumanta. ü

Pero kahit hindi siya ang naging American Idol, ang galing niya kasi unang una siya ang sinave ng mga juudges ngayong season and hello sobrang memorable ng pagka-save sa kanya hahaha. 2nd, umabot sya sa TOP 2! at pangatlo kayang kaya nyang kantahin ang ilan sa mga pinaka mahirap na kanta sa buong mundo pangapat 16 lang siya, panlima 16 lang siya, pan-anim 16 LANG SIYAAA! hahaha.  kaya wow talaga.

yun lang I’m done. :))

Kaya Atoys kame mamaya! hahaha. nagpustahan kasi parents ko kung sino ang mananalo sa AI, pag si Jessica nanalo papakainin kame ni mama sa KFC pag si Phillip naman ang nanalo papakainin kame ni papa sa Atoys hahaha

Last April 21 I joined Canon Photoskwela Plus. I was overjoyed when I received their email regarding my registration. It was held in Canon Imagenation Center, Manila Zoo, I got even more excited because yeah, it was my first visit in Manila Zoo *fail*

We arrived there at around 6 am, the registration starts at 8 am. Super early Bird, so we first had our breakfast at Mcdo. When we went to Manila Zoo, I saw a girl that was also in the Photoskwela so I made friends with her since I don’t know anyone in the workshop might as well find someone I could talk to for the next 5 hours *laughs* We got along pretty well even though she’s older than me, I think almost half of the people in the Photoskwela is twice my age >.< 

So it started around 8:30 AM, our facilitator is Sir. Jiggie Alejandrino. Here are some of the guidelines he mentioned that will help us to take good photographs. 

1.   Simplicity

2.   Balance 

3.    Rule of Thirds 

4.    Light and Shadow 

5.   Recognizing Lines, Shapes and Forms 

6.    Using Geometrical Shapes and Forms 

7.    Vanishing Points

8.    Textures

9.    Subject Placement 

10.    Positive and Negative 

11.    Depth of Field 

12.    Perspective 

13.    Shoot to Print

I will never forget everything he shared with us specially his photos that he shared with our group. amazing! After his talk he told us to take photographs around the zoo applying everything we learned, we have one hour to shoot and the best photographs will win some goodies. Here are some of the photos I took.

the forgotten area of Manila Zoo. 

From the stories I’ve heard way back, Manila Zoo was one of the most famous attractions in Manila but those who saw the Old Manila Zoo are now saying how they wish that the zookeepers have maintain the beauty of the place.They’re very disappointed on how it turned out. As they say, the beauty and the magic of the place have faded away through the years. *sad reality.

and this was my entry.

Sir Jiggie’s comment: ” it’s a good photograph I like the contrast between the light and the dark part of the photo. The only problem is the framing, does the post with the light switch does any good to the photograph?”

I wasn’t able to win but I’m glad my photo was chosen and it was included in the top 6 photos :’>

our pasalubong kay mama; sushi!:)

thanks to Sir Jiggie and Canon Team (:

Canon, Delighting you always.

Sunday Morning, rain is falling! no its not raining, I just got this habit of singing Sunday Morning of Maroon Five every Sunday Morning. *laughs*

I don’t know what I want for breakfast, I remembered I took some hotcake mix and oreo last time we did our grocery. Maya: The Original Hotcake Mix, the only brand I love. XD I’ve tried others but I keep on coming back to Maya *laughs* 

 I got this idea from Ann Ward (ANTM cycle 15). At first I was like, “woah, I didn’t know we can fry oreos” hahaha. So yeah. Fried Oreos for breakfast. what an unhealthy way to start my day but what the heck it tastes great *ü*
