WeSay

“I love everything about photography. I love how I capture the world the way I look at it and how I incorporate my creativity and passion in life. There’s a different world behind the lenses, and it’s amazing if you capture it perfectly.”

- My stance about photography. It’s always been my pleasure to capture the pictures of life, whether its landscape, radical societal concerns, conceptual, or even abstracts and distortions. This has become a part of me, my artsy mania being a right sided soul.

Taking pictures is a wonderful experience but the pleasure of photography is raised to ceiling when someone sees the picture as you’d really yearn for it to bear in that unique acuity. Because of that, pictures talk, they convey messages in a way you’d want them to speak. They serve as a clear medium of communication and sometimes they speak better than words. That’s the greatest thing I love about photography, the real spirit.

And today, fluky and funky for the camwhores on the blogosphere, here comes WeSay.com. WeSay.com is an online news site. But it’s different from other news sites because its focus is on news photography not only from mainstream media but also from amateur photographers.”

Because it‘s founded by internet professionals and journalists, the site emphasizes citizen participation in reporting today's news events. And the hit thing is they continually feature citizen news photos on their homepage. That’s what you call picture perfect that speaks.

Whatta fate…

While everyone’s getting ready for the long grand holy week vacation, here I am sulking in front of my pc because of the frigging fate that just happened to me. Yesterday, my cousins and I went to the airport to pick up their step mom. It was an awesome day after years of missing each other’s company. We were full of beans while riding on the car, singing pop music and laughing each other’s misfortune. And of course, we were wound up planning for the holy week’s activity. Here’s the plan. The first option was to go to our province and spend the Maundy Thursday and Good Friday in a calm homey place, hmmm very nice because we all missed our homeland. The second option was to have a good time at Sofitel by tomorrow and spend the next two free days at Cavite, hmm sounds good too. These are fantastic plans and we’re all excited for the trips, for kits and gadgets to bring at and for the over-all kalokohan. The day was filled with anticipation for the upcoming event. But in my case, I have some things to fix at first. I supposedly have a work today and tomorrow and my free days are Thursday and Friday. To extend my vacation and to be with them as planned, I intended to take a sick leave on Wednesday. Great mind, that’s it. All planned!

But the Universe didn’t conspire with my plan; with our plans…Here I am at home, regretting that I am doing nothing, I should be at my work. The heck…I’m tad angry; I woke up late because I came home very late yesterday…Sheesh! The plan was already ruined and I could no longer afford to take an absent by tomorrow because I came from off (last Monday) plus my absence for today. And the worse, I have a lot of things to work out by tomorrow because of the piled up things that I should be doing by now. See? The great plans turned out into a disaster….

What am I going to do now? Urghs! Whatever! My life sucks!

Goodbye! Haiz!


Anyhow, I think this is what the Universe wanted me to do, to have deep silence during holy week.

just my luck...

Ohhh…Crap!

Aside from the word busyness, crap would be the second most familiar word with my life at this point of frigging spin of time. The crappy fate started last Monday when I dropped by at the mall to unwind my frozen mind because of the monotony of work-house-house-work way of living. I stumbled at People Are People Store because I saw shirts wearing by the mannequins stunningly. I got taken aback. I impulsively took it and tried it in front of the life size mirror, which I think was modified for anyone to look like make-me-a-supermodel hippie. Because of that mystification, I bought two shirts though my wallet wasn’t consenting with my cerebrum. Mother of fate, the crap attested just today after wearing it…it, it looks like more of a basahan. No question about the one hundred percent cotton written on the tag but the crap it looks like it sagged, just like the sagging skin of your tabachoy titas on their sixties. Oh, I felt so regretful and my emotion was jiving with the pinoy nursery rhyme that goes like “kung pagkain sana nabusog pa ako”.

Wait, the crappy-ness isn’t over yet, just tonight before writing this post, I got envy, green with envy with the painting posts of Or and Dh. And my impulsive thought has operated once more. There was a sudden rush of arsty mania through my veins that went on jumping across my excited nerves. “I wanna paint too”…So I immediately went out and I took a cab for me to escape the hassle of jeepney’s loading and unloading routine. I was still gasping for a dose of oxygen when I arrived at the mall but again crap... “closed/cerrado”- posted on the door of national bookstore. I got sore, in full soreness but my hope didn’t fade away immediately. I run across the long stairs from 3rd to ground level at the supermarket on tenterhooks just to find brushes and watercolors. But the crap, all I found was groceries. And again my emotion’s concomitantly drooping with the pinoy saying “Aanhin pa ang kabayo kung serado na ang tindahan ng damo”.

Sheesh! By the way, today is my day off. Day off ng boy ngayon pero it went out awful, kawawa naman.

Missed you all guys!

P.S. Wala pa ko nahahanap na LBC. Lolz.
