I've already got my blog on the first month, and it was already october, and I'm feeling more excited to post some of my daily experience here, on my electronic journal. Anyway, yesterday, the last day of the month September, my camera's got some snapshots of the outside world, I mean, the realities of our life. Here are some of my photographs taken when I was strolling outside the school and all are in black and white tone:

SATURDAY: the most boring day of the week (for me), I'm a couch-potato type of person, I usually stay in my dark and cold room, the things I usually do, is to hang-out with the computer (a bigger percentage in my daily activities), even eat different foods, play my guitar, write something which has no sense at all, message my friends, or watch movies.

Speaking of movies I decided to take part of finding famous movie lines, in my all-time favorite movies. I dig some titles, and look for some of my movies.

I am bored this time, I'll always be. Anyway, I've been from school earlier, and I want to relax myself by posting another entry. Later, I realize it good having a camera, which is used for everyday purposes, but I tought of silly things cameras might bring.

THE PROS:

at the end of the pictorial, I realize that it wasn't my car at all. :-\
(Food, Food, and Food)
craving for food? take and capture a moment of it. who knows, it might be your last taste on that food, (food crisis, remember?), so don't hesitate, take a click, and let your imaginations work by staring at those photos.

CON/S:

(IT WAS PEEKING, INDEED!)

CONCLUSION:

So, we arrive in the conclusion. At the end of the day, a tiring day, I still love my camera, and it serves as my sixth sense (no sense at all, ayt?).

While I'm checking my bag, and looking for some papers for tommorow's activities, I gathered the objects found inside my bag, maybe because of boredom or the need to make the time flow faster, every object inside the bag makes my day complete, but for school days I usually bring my digital camera instead of the SLR, the difference there is that the digicam is super handy than the monster one (my SLR), I usually bring and use the big one whenever on a trip-mode, or in a one-of-a-kind adventure.

THESE ARE THE THINGS FOUND IN MY BAG :]

1.) My Coin and Cellphone Pouch - its a two-in-one function, whenever I leave the house for school, i'll make sure that I have some extra coins in my pouch for my fare together with my cp.

2.) Hair Care - Tricks and Gatsby Wax are found on the other pouch of my bag, these two are compatible, Wax makes my hair to be in the proper place the whole day, without retouching it. While, Tricks is just a hair grooming creme' use in a 1-minute workout for hair and if you have no time to re-style your hair. (I'm not endorsing, ayt?)

3.) My Customized Binder - Of course, when you go to school, you'll make sure you have proper notepads and school supplies, I started using binder in first year college, its more on the side of organizer, you can organize clippings to it instantly without going crazy for that thousand papers.
I change the cover of it, and cut pictures from different mags to create it as one.

4.) My Identification Card - I can't enter the school without it, all universities do. I change the sling because I really don't like using the default sling of the school, instead I used "Team McLaren" (cool).

5.) Daily Dose of BAON - I need money, really. Even all of us do, I usually spend the half of my daily allowance and save the other half of it (its good to save earlier).

6.) House Keys - Each of us in the house have different schedules, so each one has a house key, if you arrive earlier than the other, it wouldn't be difficult for us to enter the house.

7.) Accounting Book - Its a need-to-bring object, its the most important thing in the bag, why? because i'm afraid of my professo in Accounting 10, you'll instantly get ZERO when you forgot it, and besides, this one is needed also in seatworks, also serves as a medium of studying, all books do.

When we were strolling lately at the busy streets of Gensan, they realize that since I brought the camera we should start finding signage that should be pass the following day for our English 1 requirement.

After long hours of waiting for the school bell, we were finally free from boredom and from that 2 and a half hour of the major subject, IT113. Minutes pass, we started strolling into the city's busy streets, starting from the school hall up to the public market (far from the school) down to the mall (even malls have no exemption). We started noticing the wrong grammars posted on the walls and vicinities, some have freaked us out, making us laugh out loud.

Here are few of the coolest bloopers:

FIRST STOP: Along the City's Oval Plaza

(we were laughing when we saw the sign "watch-repeir", and people started staring weirdly at us.)

(this time, we decided to develop the pictures we've taken a moment ago, along the way, we saw this sign, it was nicely done, but sadly, you know it already. tsk.tsk!)

at the end of the day, a day with strolling and criticism, we realize maybe it was technically an error, but who knows, people today are not like people of yesterday anymore. I hope that our country's not degrading. :|

maybe this was really my life, i'm getting used to it now, but sometimes, the body clock just don't follow me...or maybe i'm too wasted to wake up.

Last night, when I was scanning my folder to view the latest uploads for flicker, I simultaneously logged my account. Recieved new comments, I suspected. As I review the comment, I was surprised when the moderator of the Mindanao Business Community (MBC:the largest circle of great photographers of Mindanao) invited me in joing to conribute photos which is very unusual for the them) and help endorse the nice place in Mindanao, I was flattered when they request permission for my photo (The Lake Sebu) to be added in their photostream (MBC pool).

When I viewed the photostream, there are so many cool masterpiece posted, and it was really a pleasure to be included in the pool. It was an amazing feeling to be a part of an organization which helps you mold our talent better, while helping endorse your homeland.

Mindanao Business Community help me enhance and develop my interest in photography, thats why I didn't hesitate to be a part of them.Thanks to them, it was nice having the feeling of a contributor in my age.

It's long before I've uploaded this pic. This pic was edited long, long time ago (kidding), actually i've planned to upload this pic on time, but due to "life career". Anyway, this version is entitled "My Mind Was A Paradise", explains all about my style and passion on art (specifically digital art), different world entities are featured in this piece, the car (a vectored chrysler), wild flower, different foliage, filmstrips, and even zombies are not exempted.
It was the time my mind started producing simple, yet unique things, my mind started to wander in the technological world, different styles and creativity. Believe me, I can even explain to you the significance of that crumpled paper background, it means, you cannot steal one's creativity, you can criticize them harshly but yet it can still be retreived. Not the best but also its not worth fot the worst.

Nescafe: one of the thousand brands of coffee in the world (primarily in the Philippines)












I'm not really a deliquent coffee drinker, but sometimes I drink some, even some people do, but for those who make their world round through drinking coffee, doctors said,lessen at least the amount of coffee drank in a day.

Some say that the energy boosting effect of the morning coffee is only in your mind and you should sleep more.The caffeine eases withdrawal symptoms accumulating overnight, but does not make people more alert. Only people who do not regularly drink coffee will get a 'push-up' from caffeine, while the British Coffee Association insists that regular drinkers do feel more alert.

Regular coffee drinkers swear that their morning caffeine wakes them up, and in case they don't take it, they feel they have no energy and will surely be less efficient in their activities.

Here are 5 out of many toxic effects of coffee:

1.) Caffeine, the main active chemical of coffee, blocks adenosine, a chemical that makes you naturally drowsy, increasing concentration and reaction speed. But the long term effects can be really tricky. Once the temporary stimulation stops, the brain cells start needing caffeine for stimulation and a sudden neural sluggishness installs.

2.) Caffeine has been found to prevent cognitive decline in the elderly women. Women aged 65 and older who consumed over three cups of coffee (or the same caffeine levels in tea) daily scored better over time on memory tests than women who drank one cup or less of coffee/tea daily did.

3.) High coffee consumption (more than three cups per day for years) increases loss of bone mineral density. Caffeine is a mild diuretic, speeding up the urination cycle, but "steals" calcium which is lost through urine. Long term, heavy caffeine use leads to a rapid development of osteoporosis.

4.) Caffeine causes sleep disturbances. Don't even think about drinking coffee or other caffeine containing beverages before sleep. And remember that the alkaloid needs 12 hours to be completely eliminated from your body.

5.) High coffee consumption (more than three cups per day for years) increases loss of bone mineral density. Caffeine is a mild diuretic, speeding up the urination cycle, but "steals" calcium which is lost through urine. Long term, heavy caffeine use leads to a rapid development of osteoporosis.

but who knows, coffee might make you stronger. It just depends on your feeling and instinct. So, to thos coffee lovers, be more aware on what's happening, remember, everything has its benefit in partner with its disadvantages.

This trip happened last last last week...i just didn't post it.

The 2nd fall out of the seven fallsthe bridge where you should cross in order to see the falls

a nice view on the lake

The tutorial will help you discover the essence of the animation palette in adobe photoshop cs,cs2, and cs3. We will make a popping head of Manilyn Monroe (to those who wonder why Manilyn Monroe,its because it is so nice to see her head popping especialy when you play a music *lol*)

requirements:

1.) of course, ADOBE PHOTOSHOP
2.) patience
3.) a picture of manilyn monroe, or other picture (even you)
4.) trust me, its sooo easy.

WE'LL START HERE:

1.) create a new document with a size of 360x363 pixels.
2.) fill the layer with black.
3.) open the image of manilyn monroe,cut and copy her image to the newly created document

now, we will animate her. (we'll make her alive!)

4.) open the animation palette in the menu bar: WINDOW>ANIMATION

5.) we will now cut Manilyn Monroe's head (how sick) but be sure not to incude her neck, just the face including the head.

6.) then copy the head and paste it we should now have her head separated from another full copy. the order of layers should look like this one:
7.) then, proceed to the animation palette and duplicate the frame.you should now have two frames
8.) select again frame 1 and duplicate the head and rename it into "pophead"
9.) ctrl + t to transform and rotate the the first copy of the head, and slightly rotate it sideways. be sure to hide the "pophead: layer in frame 1.

10.) next, in frame 2 select the layer "pophead" and rotate it opposite to the one you rotated back in frame 1. this time hide the original copy of the head while showing the "pophead" layer.
11.) play the sequence in the animation palette, if finished go toe FILE>SAVE FOR WEB

its finished as of now, if you want to make the head more interesting, duplicate the frames many times, while simultaneously duplicating the layers.
