Q and A for Media Awareness

1. What happened and is happening?
- I just watched Juno

2. What are my journalistic goals?
- Well, number one, spread this to who knows where so that everyone may partake in the lovely artform of film rolled into one dvd called Juno. Number two, encourage intellectual discussion with my peers and colleagues. And number three, get to know other films that are worthwhile.

3. Ethical Concerns?
- Due to some of the content in the beginning, i'm worried that people may take my advertisement of the film the wrong way. I'm also concerned that they wouldn't get the dark humor and instead of intellectual conversation, bashing the film would be the order of social talk.

4. Do I need more point of views? and what are they?
- Yes I do. Perhaps I need to realize that everything is not like the way I see it. Discussion that would not go the way I planned can actually be instructive and I'd actually learn from other people. Also, by listening to others' views whether positive or not, I can scratch farther than the surface.

5. Stakeholders?
- The people around me because infecting them with my enthusiasm for the film may actually defer their attention from something important. They would also probably take the issue of the movie too seriously or personally.

6. Consequences
- The consequences can either be bad or good. The good means facilitating conversation and art appreciation. The bad meaning taking things too personally or just diverting true priorities and the like.

7. In the shoes of the others (a.k.a. people who do not appreciate this type of art and genre)
- I'd probably shrug it off. We all have our own preferences. It just so happens that i did not like this particular film. That doesn't mean that I start to bash others' preferences.

8. What is right?
- Encouraging diversity and respecting others' opinions will always bring the best in something.

9. Alternatives
- Suggest other movies, help others do their work first, avoid touchy subjects...

10. Justify your decision
- This would help peace spread. And I don't mean it in a hippy sorta way. Respecting the opinions and ideas of others certainly brought out the best in many aspects such as government and the like. Plus, fun always has to come after work. Its best to get it all done before jumping to something not worthwhile. Also, taboo topics might not be best. If stimulating intellectual conversations is the primary reason, its best not to cross the personal line to avoid offending someone.

Whirlwind Weeks

Okay, dude, it feels as if I'm on tour or something... It's craaaazyyy... First, planning for prom was waaaay tough, talk about dark circles around the eyes tough. Thank God it pulled off... Then, last week was HELL WEEK... DUDE!!!! I had COL meetings, Prom meetings and a whole lotta meetings... Crud... anyway... OMIGOD!!!!!

Prom was fun. Thanks to the people who made it very memorable... Don't wanna enumerate, too many, anyway... You guys and gals know who you are so whatever... :D (Kimchee is cool... hahaha)

I PASSED THE TEST MAAAAAANNNN!!!!!! (for those who know what ajss is... or those who knew i took the acet...) GAWD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Sooooo happy, relieved and ecstatic!!!!
It was sooo unexpected...
I don't care anymore, or maybe a little, that I don't finish first on graduation...
I think the ACET proved my point..
Thank GOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I love the Lord... :))

It all started when I just released my tension and forgave myself... Working too hard and too concerned what others might think... All the while it was me who forced myself to carry the weight of the world... Dude... Phew... Then I talked to Ms. O.... one of the best talks ever... A little shopping to make myself more comfortable with my mom then spilled everything... Don't you just love how discounts make everyone feel a tad lighter??? :D

Mapaul... thanks for the note... It really made my day...

So... tomorrow's my oratorical contest... And I am psyched... Plus I still have a Geoid competition on Saturday... Crud... BUSY BUSY BUSY...

AJSS!!!!! I don't even care if I don't become valedictorian... AJSS affirmed my opinions and stuff... Does this mean I'm already an Atenean??? I hope it does...

Damn, come to think of it, if I don't pass ME in Ateneo, I don't know what'll happen... I'd go ballistic, that's for sure...

Song that struck me the most (To the person I thought was my friend but wanted to go beyond, I really don't know what to do. Crud. And To the person who was supposed to be There.): Vertical Horizon's Best I Ever Had...

Dude. That song is majorly ancient... So are all the other songs I listen to nowadays.

Piece of rotten tupperware laced with pork butts and taters...

I met Mar Roxas... He waved AND smiled at me... (Am I making it too big of a deal here??? HAHAHA) I AM SOOOO GONNA VOTE FOR HIM.... HAHAHAH.....

J.Lo. (Jun Lozada) is soooo cool... He shook my hand... WAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!

What am I struck with? Divine Providence. Or maybe just a dash of insanity... I don't think its just pure dumb luck...

I feel like the luckiest person in the world right now!!!!!

YM: still permanently offline to him... Too big of a shocker... Just can't handle the added drama right now... :(

La Salle's all green and stuff... haha...

I was supposed to go to my brother's confirmation in Ateneo (Gesu, the coolest church in the whole area of Metro Manila... :)) ) But I didn't... Wasn't able to see... *Cough... sorry, bug in my throat... Hahaha... totally kidding... eww... gross...

My mom has something new to talk about with her officemates... Gosh darn it... hahaha

Soooooooo sleeeeeeeeepy... I don't know how I m gonna be able to pull of the speech tomorrow...

So... still waiting for my hot Italian/Greek/French fiancee to come and get me... I think he's still doing some field work to create the ultimate Mediterranean dish... or perhaps practicing with Real Madrid... I don't really know...

It's cool, though, I love working as a personal shopper cum ambassador cum rockstar
Also waiting for Josh Hartnett, he's awfully late... talk about 2 months...hahaha
