The Net Benefits of HUMANITIES FEST '07

Congratulations sa BBrC 2-5 sa pagiging Overall Champion ng Humanities fest ngayong taon, oy oy oy, walang halong malisya 'to dahil may mga kaibigan din naman ako sa kanila (Regards nga pala kina Guillan, Say, Jackie, at Valerie!). Masaya ako dahil deserving din sila. Tingnan mo ha, hetong mga awards nila: 1st place, Literature; 1st place, Music; 2nd place, Dance; Overall Champion--Grand Slam din gaya ng nangyari sa debate natin di ba?

Anyway, ating tingnan ang mga maganda at di magandang nakuha natin sa hindi natin pagsali sa Humanities:


(-) Matagal na nating inaasam na mag-Humanities (especially Humanities Fest). Isa pa, nami-miss na rin natin si Sir Don. Akalain mong ang iba sa atin eh may mga balak nang gamiting mga dance steps at songs para dito. At pagkatapos, ano? Anong ang nangyari?! Sino itong Agpaoang ito?!! (Wishung!!) Naguho ang mga pangarap! Dagdag sana yan sa MOGC ha!

(+) Kahit paano, hindi naidagdag si Maam Agpaoa sa ating DELINKWENTE list, di gaya ng iniisip natin. Ipinasa niya tayong lahat, with matching 1 step higher pa. (Thank u Maam!) At isa pa, mas napagtuunan natin ng pansin ang ating Comm Campaigns. Tignan mo, tapos na tayo sa implementation; samantalang yung mga nag-Humanities, mag-iimplement pa lang...

Pero in fairness, medyo na-flatter ako sa narinig ko na may sinabi daw ang mga taga-RC2-5 na sana sumali daw tayo para may kalaban sila. O diba, which means to say, tinuturing nila tayong matinding competitor! Adding to that, nakaka-touch din si Sir Don dahil special mention tayo (at ang 2-3 na siyang umasikaso sa event) sa Humanities Fest.

Bilang pagtatapos, masasabi nating kahit ano pa ang costs at benefits ng hindi natin pagsali (which is pwede naman kahit di natin prof si Sir Don), nangyari na ang nangyari. At kahit paano, magaganda naman yung advantages na nakuha natin. Ibaling na lang siguro natin sa mga susunod na competitions yung naipong talent outburst naten... Kaya dapat, sa susunod na campus activity, walang excuses! Sisiguraduhin nating may maiuuwi tayong panalo kahit maliit lang, ok? Go 2-1, este 3-1 na pala! Welcome ourselves! Welcome the new RC 3-1!! Kita-kits next year!

Marge in Philippine's Next Top Model


Tonight, RPN 9 premiered the Philippine version of Tyra Banks' America's Next Top Model, the Philippine's Next Top Model. By 8:30 PM, the show opened with a fast-paced look at the past search auditions in the country, and immediately revealing the Top 27. From the Top 27, they further eliminated them down to the Final Top 14.


Our focus is on Marjorie "Marge" Cornillez of Antipolo City, one of the semi-finalists. For everyone's information, she is an irregular Mass Communication student here in PUP College of Communication. Fortunately, she is presently our classmate in the subject Intro to Humanities, and last sem, she was also our classmate in Philippine Literature. According to her, she was actually a student from the College of Engineering, but she was encouraged to transfer here in COC because it was more fit for her beauty. And now, she has proven her worth by being selected as finalist in PNTM.

For the pilot episode, the finalists were isolated to an apartment-type building as their temporary house for the series' run. There were limited beds, so two of them were left sleeping on the living room.

The first challenge/activity was a photo shoot in the busy Avenida with photographer and judge Xander Angeles. It wasn't just any ordinary shoot, because in front of the people, they were to wear bikini. Following that was the deliberation of the panel of judges (Rufa Gutierrez, Robbie Carmona, Pauline Sauco-Juan, and Xander Angeles), and their verdict on every 'best shot' of the finalists. Honestly, Marge had very little exposure in the episode, as there were very few and quick shots on her.

The denouement was an elimination of one of the finalists, done by giving the photo of the finalist who survives and continues to the next round. The last two who were not called were Kaye and Marge. To Marge, Rufa said, "Marge, you're beautiful, but people seem to forget you or recall your name." To Kaye, Rufa said, "Kaye, you look like a model, but you don't have a personality."

"Who will win--the girl with no presence (Marge), or the girl with no personality (Kaye)?"

When Rufa showed what she's holding, there was no picture. Meaning, both of the two were eliminated.

"Siguro hindi para sa 'kin 'to. May purpose kung bakit natanggal ako," Marge relates as she packs up her things."


Even though Marge was eliminated too early, we in RC 2-1 are proud of her for reaching to that far level in the competition. At least, she had her stint on TV and compared to others, she prioritizes her studies. As shown earlier in the show, one of the finalists even stopped studying for that contest. Well, I wish her good luck.

To Marge, congratulations and we're very proud of you!

Galing ng COC, Galing ng PUP!

Stay Away

I've previously posted the songs which were composed for a presentation under the subject Creative Writing, but this time, here is a composition that sprung because of being in love...

Composed by: Boots Sermeno

every single day,
i'm filled with thoughts of you
Boy, it's drivin me crazy..
i don't know what to do

You pass by me everyday
but you never looked my way
my head is burstin and my heart is bleedin
so let me sing for you

*stay away
coz i can't help but fall
and i hate this feeling coz i'm losin all control
so don't come close
coz heaven knows
just one smile, just a smile, just one smile
would make me fall

I guess it really shows
how much this feeling grows
and though i try to keep it inside
I just can't seem to hide

i hate the day you caught my eye
i even hate the way you smile
coz when you do, you melt my heart
and my whole world falls apart

(repeat *)

Complete

Composed and Performed by: Heleena Claire Pasumbal

It’s the first time

I’ve ever felt happy

You’re that someone

Who cured all the pain away from me

The times you’re with me

Once do appear something to surround me

And keep me from my fears

REFRAIN:

I don’t know what to feel tomorrow

But I’m sure with today

CHORUS:

I’m with you, I’m complete

You came around me

Choose to be with me

Though I’m so weak

I remember the times I’m afraid to be myself

You made me uncover and help me trust in me.

Never Thought

Composed by: Jerome Philip Ricamata

Performed by: Jerome Philip Ricamata, Patri Fe Delasas, Shaidel Murillo, with the special participation of Ann Lalaine Testor

I met you on a Tuesday morning. The clouds were fine.

Your eyes glistened like a star in a diamond line

We started conversations that led to another

We even had lunch over and over

But there’s a thing that I couldn’t say best

A feeling that was kept inside of my chest

Refrain 1:

Don’t know how to start it

Don’t know how to show it

Even don’t know how to say it

But here it goes, here it goes

Chorus 1:

Never thought I’d fall in love with you (ooh-ooh)

Never thought I’d met someone like you (dub i dub dub)

Deep within my heart I know you’re the one for me

But baby we can’t be, my courage won’t let me be

I finally heard what I wanted to hear long ago,

Now I know that there is no letting go

Now we have each other, together, forever

And never we’ll part ooh never

I never expected that you would be mine

I never expected it would be this fine

Refrain 2:

Don’t want it to end

Don’t want it to bend

But now I know what I wanna say

And here it goes, here it goes

Chorus 2:

Never thought I’d fall in love with you (Never… with you baby)

Never thought you felt the same way too

Deep within my heart I know you’re the one for me

Oh baby I’m so happy, we were meant to be

(Adlib)

Love… Precious love… Here it goes!

(Repeat Chorus 1)

… never thought

…never thought

Fall in love with you

Unchain This Heart

Composed and Performed by: Jhuna Bell G. Mogol

Cram Band Members: Vernon Carlo Parreño, Heidi Cabalo and Mearah Gonzales

I

You told me, you love me

That you can never live without me

All those words, fade as you go

And now you’ve gone so far away from me

Refrain:

I don’t wanna believe that we’re through

But I know I must face it all alone

Chorus:

I know, that you don’t love me anymore

And with another’s arms, you’re happier

So even if, my heart is breaking

I will unchain this heart, and let you go…

II

I don’t know, what to do

Now that you left me here crying

What can I do, to make you stay

I can’t imagine life without you

(Repeat Refrain and Chorus)

(Adlib)

(Repeat Chorus except last line)

I will unchain this heart…

I will unchain this heart…

I will unchain this heart… and let you go…

Ooohhhhh….

Let you go…
