I really miss my long hair. But I can’t sport it anymore. It took me a year to grow my hair like this and it would be hard to try achieving it again. That’s because I constantly need to have my hair cut for modeling purposes and for school regulations. I really hate that the rules and regulation in CFAD is so strict when it comes to haircut and proper uniform. I don’t see why is this even implemented in schools? Does the hair and uniform even affect our studies? hell no!

I’ve recorded some random clips during my travel time from Manila to Laguna. Most of the clips were taken while I’m taking the LRT (Blumentritt Station - Gil Puyat Station). It was very risky. Everything was recorded with only an iPhone4s. I captured the videos with extra precaution because I’m a bit paranoid that my phone might got stolen by a snatcher. My mom will seriously be mad at me if she finds out that I did this. I used my iPhone4s because I also wanted to try the camera’s capability to take videos. The 4S ships with an 8 megapixel backlit CMOS sensor that records 1080p video at 30 FPS. With an f/2.4 aperture and a gyro for video stabilization. Gyro for video stabilization is one my favorite features of the new iPhone4s. But as you can see the shots are still a bit shaky. Plus, I also stabilized the videos in iMovie. But still shaky though. I really hoped that the gyro worked better than this, but it’s fine. It’s just that, it’s really hard to have a still video being recorded inside a vehicle with a handheld device.

*Day 9: A favorite picture of your best friend Here’s a picture of me with my friend in the modeling industry, Mycke Arcano. I don’t really like labeling stuff like “best” friend, because that makes you attached to a person, but I can totally trust this person with anything at all. He always motivates me when I’m down, though usually words don’t make me feel better. There are also times that I even told him that I wanted to quit modeling. Yes, I’ve been thinking about it. But maybe not for now.And here’s Tina… …my great friend at MCL. This person knows me well than how my mom knows me. But since I started studying at UST, we haven’t talked to each other that much. Maybe we’re just to busy. She’s now working and I went to Manila to study Advertising Arts. (*supposed to be a May 9 post)

May 07/Day 07: Favorite movies

Here are some of my favorites movies. I know I have a lot of favorite movies even though I have such high standards to consider a movie a ‘good one’. Harry Potter and Hunger Games are not included because as a reader of the books I have so much expectations in the movie.

Nick and Norah’s Infinite Playlist - I never get tired of watching this movie. I watch this sometimes when I need to cheer my self up. And also this movie helped me moved on. It made me realize a lot of better things could happen in just one day if you’re willing to let things go.

Inception - the mind blowing movie I’ve ever watched. This is my all time favorite movie. Will never get tired of watching this too. Like, I’ve already watched this movie for over 20 time in less than a year. 

The Dark Knight - favorite super hero movie. Because a real HERO doesn’t need super powers to be one. And a super hero movie is not all about the Computer generated images to make the action scenes such a bad ass; It’s about the story. Story over Action. And Nolan did a great job in this one. looking forward to The Dark Knight Rises.

The Avengers - Best movie so far that I have watched this year. But I think The Dark Knight Rises can top that. Hopefully

May 05/Day 05: A song to match your mood Vanished by Crystal Castles. Currently making a video for this song. It’s still in the making and I hope to finish it by tomorrow. It doesn’t really match my mood right now. But this song is stuck in my head because of what I’m working on right now. It’s also one of my favorite songs.
