TO MULTITASK
Nowadays it's just so hard to focus. Sabi nga ni Sir Ricky Lee, ang henerasyon ngayon ay sanay na sanay na pagsabay-sabayin ang napakaraming mga gawain. Kung kaya't para sa mga aspiring filmmaker o film enthusiasts, napakahirap ng sitwasyon na ang dami dami mong 'kailangang' panoorin subalit wala kang panahon para makita ang lahat ng mga ito. Ganoon marahil ang nararamdaman ko ngayon. I feel as if there's a lot of things I 'have' to do - I want to watch and make films, I want to write, I want to practice speaking (through kraMTV), and I want to read. And these are the things which are outside my academic life, so pano ko masisingit ang lahat ng mga ito?

Ngayong linggo ko narealize ang mga iba't ibang signs mula noong bata pa lang ako na naging dahilan kung bakit ito ang mga naging hilig ko. Through these simple ways, I realized that I did know what I wanted to do right when I was still a young kid. When I was in grade three, I together with some friends used to create these minibooks/magazines. We made use of a half sheet of paper folded and cut it then stapled and we would write things like "Book-a-book", "Pasion", "iNsEcTs", "Flants", "Puds" and "Purita and Constantina". (God I wish I know where I placed these.) When I was bored in class, I would usually do one and right after making, I would hurriedly show it to my seatmate and see his/her reaction. Aside from this, I also created my own MTV newsletter. Grade school was a time when I had this delight in watching MTV to the point when I always knew the top 10 songs every week. Because of this I even created my own top 10 list and even had articles about certain artists I like. In the field of photography, I would often become the person to watch out for in every family gathering we had as I would always take pictures of my relatives in their most awkward positions - whether they be asleep, eating or just look plain fugly. The same goes whenever I possess a video camera as I would even focus on their unflattering body parts.

Needless to say, there are a lot of things which I have done and would like to do. Sometimes I just wish that I have the time to focus in doing one thing before proceeding in doing the other. Pero sa panahon ngayon, alam nating imposible yan. Nakakamiss lang ang mga panahon na nakatuon ang buong pansin mo sa isang bagay - yung wala kang iniintinding ibang bagay (o ibang tao); yung masaya ka lang sa buhay mo habang ginagawa mo ang bagay na paborito mo.
