Me, Myself and I

My first attempt on making my own multiplicity image.  It’s just this morning that i learn this trick and then try it on my own.  I can’t help it, so try it myself. XD

Violent reactions are very welcome. ^_^

Candle Light

It was around three in the morning when I woke up because of this erratice noise I hear from a party blocks away from my place.  Got nothing to do at all, and then I saw this crabby-old-cheap candle holder.  I hurriedly get my camera, lit the candles and start shooting in different angles

“EDUCATION IS NOT IMPORTANT TO SUCCEED IN LIFE”

Host:

Good morning everyone and welcome to the show “NAKED EYE”.  We are here with our guests composed of different individuals in the society.  They are here to give their own stand - about our topic, “EDUCATION IS NOT IMPORTANT TO SUCCEED IN LIFE”. 

We have Ms. Tesa Rose Misa, a professor of the College of Education of Cebu Normal University.  We also have Ms. Zenaida Mozo, a student from the College of Commerce of Cebu Institute Technology.  A famous actress and gained some awards of the recently concluded Cinema One Originals, Ms. Alpha Mae Lagura.  We are also joined by our resident Psychologist Ms. Michelle Llagoso.

Host:  Ms. Tesa, as a professor of a well known university in Cebu, is education not   important to succeed in life?

Professor:  You know what, I myself also thought of that idea.  But based on my observation, when I was in my grade school years, no person will ever progress without education.  Education is a key of every person’s success in life.   

Host:   Thank you Professor Tesa.

Host:    Now let’s hear the side of our guest student, Ms. Zenaida.

             What can you say about this Ms. Mozo?

Student:  My mom once told me that “Ang mga kabataan ang pag-asa ng bayan” as what also our national hero Dr. Jose Rizal told us in our history.  For me is how can this be possible if we, the supposed to be the “hope” of our country, don’t have education at hand.  The knowledge we acquire from the lessons in school is irreplaceable.  Thus, education can be the weapon of the future.

Host:   Very well said.

Host:   The award winning actress Ms. Alpha Mae Lagura. 

            I know as an artist you’re so busy with tapings, auditions and stuffs like that.    Have you ever thought of going to school and finish your studies?

Actress:  Thanks for the compliment.

                 About education, it’s so hard for me to fit it on my busy schedule.  Though, I’ve always thought of finishing my studies.  But because of my work, my busy schedule, it’s really hard for me.  However, if given a chance to go back to this four walled classroom, why not.

Host:  Well, good luck on your studies Ms. Alpha.

Host:  Now let us hear the side of our resident Psychologist.

           Ms. Michelle, what can you say about this?

Psychologist:  You know these days, a lot of our kids happen to be not in school.  They have their own reasons for not able to go to school.  Most of the kids that are not in school are the sons’/daughters’ of less fortunate families.  Poverty is really a big factor for those students who are not attending class in school.  How can their parents send them to school that even securing food for the day is kind of hard to achieve.  Imagine a person without education; it’s like a body without a soul.    

(Just get the gist of your answers, if possible don’t memorize)

Good Luck!

Any suggestions will be very much appreciated

Kant’s Categorical Imperative

Kant’s Categorical Imperative 

The 18^th century philosopher Immanuel Kant considered it absolutely necessary for a person to treat other equally and with respect.  He suggested two principles for examining whether a person has the right to act a certain way in a given situation.  He referred to these principles as consistency and respect.  The principles of consistency and respect are aspects of what Kant called categorical imperative.

 Consistency

Be fair in all our actions.  Asks the question “Would everyone benefit (or would no one be harmed) if everyone were to take the action being considered”.  If not, do not take it.

 Respect

This suggests that we treat people with dignity.  People are ends in themselves, not means.  If we use people as slaves, we deny their humanness and do not show them respect.  Thus, slavery violates the categorical imperatives.

I got these one from the lesson that we tackle on our Professional Ethics and Values Education class.  And I really hope that GMA can read this entry.

Burn

Burning as if it’s the pathetic running of politics in the Philippines.  They should be the epitome of honesty to the citizens of the country, however, they are doing things that is against the constitution.

Gloria Macapagal - Arroyo, you better go down from your position now before anyone do it for ya!

Four administrations before you, Philippines was once considered as the "Tiger of Asia".  But now we became the tick of asia. 

Shame on you!

How I wish that Cebu is separated from Philippines and became and independent country.  We could be the richest country.  Cebu now is like a "Little Singapore" and I’m proud of that. 

For those who appreciate GMAs’ effort for the country, think twice!

The quest of a junior photographer (wannabee)

    I really don’t love photography until there’s  photo contest during our Science Week when I’m still in high school.  As far as I can remember, I was still on the junior years at that time.  It was organized, of course, the science department.  Then there was a sudden urge at my side to join the contest, hmmm, actually you really don’t have to join the contest for it was compulsory. ;p 

    The theme of the contest was about the different phases of the environment.  To find the cleanest and ewww areas of the city.  So I then borrowed my aunts camera, it was then a NIKON camera and it uses film.  I then go to the streets of the city with a friend to consult if it’s the best or worst shot ever made.  Hoping to find a nice place inside the city, I hurriedly go to Plaza Independencia, one of the preserved spot in the city for it was one of the oldest spot downtown.  Snap a few shots then journeying again to find the yucky, smelly and oh so disgusting part of downtown.  It was then that I remember walking with my mom from a small mall and passing by a sewer with all those waste from the mall beside it.  Again I walk to that place which is around 500 meters from Plaza Independencia.  It was tiring but when I arrive at the place I feel anxious taking photos of that site.  And my journey for that day was not yet done because the submission of entries will be done on that same day, and it was around 1pm I finish taking photos and I still have to develop the film and that will take around 1 hour or so.  After few hours of waiting, I took a cab on the way to my school.  When I arrive it was now around quarter to four, the deadline of all the entries. 

    It was a tiring yet enjoying day, but still kept thinking of what will happen to my photos.  Will it end up on the facultys’ boxes or be exhibited on the schools main lobby.  It was a saturday so I have to wait until monday. 

    And monday came,  when I woke up I don’t think of getting a shower but still thinking about where my photos will end up.  I arrive at school thirty minutes before the time, there’s no exhibit yet.  After three hours of classroom activities, break came.  I hurriedly ran to the ramps and go directly to the main lobby hoping to find my photos.  I searched through the wooden frames for 5 minutes and there, i said to myself, that’s my photos.  Smiling as if it was reaching my ear.  Though there is no cash price for the winners, but fame is at hand.  The price is the experience and the fun of doing things you dont actually do. 

    Now, I’m induling myself into digital photography, not using those crabby old film cameras.  I still need to practice shooting using my gear because I’m still not familiar with all the functions of it.  For those who want to check out my gear, visit it here.  It’s the review of my gear, though it’s not yet the best cam in my hand but the shots were okay compared to those cheap old film cameras.
