Exciting Second Semester!
written on Saturday, December 15, 2012 @ 2:03 AM ✈

I didn't expect that this sem is going to be this great. I have an awesome set of professors. And perhaps, that alone contributes to the awesomeness of this semester. The excitement that I am feeling is a good release from the past sem which was really traumatic.Oh, well. I need to move on. We all need to continue with our lives because there are more to come. 'Cause if you stuck yourself in that sad part of your life, then you'll never grow and you'll never know what's ahead of you. :)

Prof. Ricky Rosales (the guy wearing eye glasses)
Let me introduce to you my new and good professors. I have Prof. Clarisse for Debate and Argumentation, Prof. Bucks for General Psychology, Prof. Benitez for Basic Economics. Then I also have two favorite professors for this semester -- Prof. Ricky and Prof. Davidson. Why do I like them? Because they are very much likeable. They are two cool professors, who both excel in their respective fields. Sir Ricky is my prof for Radio Production and Performance. He is a news anchor of DZMM. He teaches us a lot of things about radio newscasting. He gives us the preview of what happens in the field. He makes us laugh too! Whenever he speaks, it's as if we are transported to the radio booth. Just recently, there are three 'big events' that we did in his class. First, we had to do news gathering. We were grouped into five and we were assigned in different major and minor beats. Our group was tasked to gather news from the Senate. Second, we had our first quiz. He asked us to make ten stories out of what we have gathered from the field and the news that can be found on the broadsheet that day. I got to finish only three stories since it took time before I fully understood and capsulized what's written on the newspaper. In addition to that, I rewrote my work three times, I think. The time limit that was given to us was just an hour. Upon passing my paper, I felt bad since I wasn't able to finish ten stories. Though my worries vanished when Prof. Ricky handed to us our works last Monday and I saw a whopping 94 on my paper. As what he always tells us, "I am after quality, not quantity." Yay! That was pretty high but still, I must do better next time. Maybe I'll practice writing news for radio this break. We'll see. Third, he made us do live reporting. He made us assume that we are radio reporters who are in the field, doing a report without any written material being read. He also asked us several questions about our report as we speak, just like how it goes in real life. I hope I got a good grade. :) Next to be discussed is our Humaities professor.. Prof. David. He's 23 years old and he's currently taking his MA in Theatre Arts in UP Diliman. As I was stalking his Facebook account, I found out that one of his profs there is Tony Mabesa. Wow! He's a very talkative professor. He discusses lessons well. And almost all of us in his class like him.. or should I remove the 'almost'? :) Most of the girls in our class has a crush on him as well.. including me. Hihi. Well that's because he made us all feel comfortable. He tells a lot of stories, mostly, about his life, his experiences and even his crush. He plays and jokes with us too. We like him very much. We love him very much. :> We meet both of them once a week, during Mondays. That's why I look forward to Mondays. Best day of the week! =)))

By the way, if you happen to have time, you can watch these videos. Here's the funny side of Prof. Davidson:

And his serious side..


My Christmas break started last Tuesday (earlier than expected). Well, thank you to my professors who gave us the privilege to have an early break. It has been productive so far. I'm done reading Tuesdays with Morrie (which made me cry!) and I also got to see The Lucky One already. Maybe I'll read The Last Song next then I'll watch The Road and the new episodes of Detective Conan (I am in love with Shinichi once again.) That'll be it for the meantime. :D

PS. Look at my hair! It's now straight. Yeeeeeeaaay~
