ON THE JOB TRAING

Seriously. I'm scared at first. This is one of the most mature thing I have ever done. Haha! I did not even imagine myself going to Ortigas everyday and actually do the real thing - the work. Well, here's a wrap-up of what we have done for the first week! By the way, I am with my forever co-clingy friend so this OJT is 70% fun and 30% tiring. Lol.

Say, hello to Ortigas!

  This is the place where I should get used to for 200 hours! Tall buildings, lots of food, and good people. (not to mention the GOOD LOOKING ones, oops!) Not bad, ey?

The office

 THIS. IS. OUR. OFFICE. Yeah, check their website out for more details! (http://incitegov.org/) :) So basically, our office's focus is on peace, good governance and transparency. One thing that we are working on right now (as I am writing this post) is the Peace Summit. The whole office is busy enough that we - interns were like a blessing in disguise for them because finally more person power! Haha! (because human power is too mainstream and manly, lol) So, yes. First day, first task?

 Attend a lecture. Document it. So, for our first task, we need to attend and listen to a very meaningful lecture on the history of Mindanao and the Bangsamoro Basic Law and then document it.(did not take a lot of pictures though because I was busy listening, weh?) It was a very meaningful lecture! Some of the attendees were representative from House of Representatives and representatives from different organizations/advocacies like WE ACT 1325; Center for Peace Education, OPAPP; and University of Mindanao. Our next task was to complete the invitation list for the Peace Summit. We get to use our Excel skills!! It was tiiiiiiiiring. We stayed in the office until 8 PM only to finish the quarter of the list. Too many names and contact numbers of so prominent people! That was cool. Our boss even gave us coffee as an appreciation of the typing, clicking, ranting, and crying that we have done. Thank you, Ms. Ace! I really like you!! Hehe.

 You still there? Good! Here's day two! We were to continue the quarter-finished list and then our other boss told my friend that she had to do a digest of every news article that we will find about the Bangsamoro Basic Law. Of course, I had to help her. I did! (promise) :) Browse here and there, here and there.

The next day, our boss encouraged us to read this very awesome book of essays about the Bangsamoro Basic Law. She told us that we also need to know what is happening in the BBL so that we could easily communicate with other people who may not be so knowledgeable about it. And so we did. Read this too, people! :)

As of now, the office is still busy organizing the upcoming Peace Summit and we are doing our very best to reach the media and the nation about the said event. :) Next week again, yes? Yes.

PS: I'm barely hanging on. Lol

Sin-kun

So guys, do you know the guitarist of the J-rock band 'Liquidz Edge'? Sin-kun. Ah, he followed me!! KYAAAA! Okay, I just want to share this. Hahaha. I was surprised!! First, he favorited my tweet about the band stating that Liquidz Edge is my new fave J-rock band. Then he started following me on Twitter!! I am just so happy!! 

Then he tweeted me~!! I don't know the exact translation for this, but I think his tweet is about their band being known internationally. Am I right? Haha. Correct me if I'm wrong =)) So, there. HAPPY FANGIRL OVER HERE!! :)

Review: Bloody Monday

(c) dramafansfansub.blogspot.com

First impressions anyone? Well, at first I thought this series was some kind of horror because of the word "bloody" in it. Lol. A friend recommended me this series. Since it is summer, I say "let's give it a shot!" Haha. So I did. To be honest, I did not like it the very first time I watched it. I mean the first part of the first episode. I thought "what is this?!" Haha. I still watched it though. After the first episode I was kinda hooked. Well, not kinda. I AM HOOKED! I was surprised by my own self because I am not the kind of person that gets hooked with a series like this one. 

Okay, let me give you a brief summary. Just brief. Haha. The series revolves around a hacker with a pen name 'Falcon' who was being portrayed by Miura Haruma. He is a high-school student with one younger sister and a dad. His dad works at some kind of agency that is responsible for the security of the whole Japan. His dad left them without stating the reason why. Then, 'Falcon' was hired by an agency named 'Third i' to hack. From there, the story will revolve. Bloody Monday is an event which will be explained in the series. (I guess I have to end here. Haha!)

So there. Is that a brief summary? Haha. I really love this drama and so, with no further ado my dear readers, I recommend this series to you. It's thrilling, mind-bugging and very very interesting. If you are a hacker like 'Falcon' for sure you will love this! Or you're involve with some kind of 'spying', this one's for you too! Haha! It is a great drama, I promise! After you finish Season 1, you should finish Season 2 because they are both great!

Hope you enjoy! Send me feedback or if you have questions or you want to suggest a topic or you just want to talk. Haha. Comment below! :) Thank you! <3 :)

Review: Priceless

(c) shindou2006.blogspot.com 

I have finished this drama a month ago. I must admit that I have decided to see this drama because my 2 ichibans are here. Taisuke Fujigaya and Takuya Kimura :) I have read some of the reviews before starting to watch this drama and I must say that all the reviews were positive and good. The first episode is nice. Easy and smooth, but it will leave you questioning "what will happen next?"

The story is about a guy who got fired from work and lived a poor life with other less-fortunate people in a community and from there, he gained friends and have experienced things that soon helped him become a better man. (enough already, I might be a spoiler if I go on. Haha!)

It exposed the lifestyle of the less-fortunate people in Japan. Here in this drama, you will see how hard it is to live and how simple life is. You will realize the meaning of hard work and passion. You will appreciate every value of money you have and will learn that not all things in the world can be easily achieved. 

I have observed that the characters evolved as the story gets better. Through the experiences of the characters, they have gained knowledge and have realized a lot of things. 

I guess the title of the drama says a lot. Since 'Priceless' is the title, I think they meant the experiences and the lessons that every character here in the drama have gained. The priceless moments they shared together and the value of life and love that no money can buy. I think, those were the "priceless" things that the writer wants to tell us. 

This drama has a good twist and a plot in it. It is worth watching because you will learn stuff and will realize some things. So there, I hope you can get a chance to see this drama and share what you think :)

THANKS FOR READING!! :)
