Kalokohan 101

Ang mga nasa baba ay mga kasabihang walang kakwenta kwenta pero nakapagbibigay saya.ha ha

"di baleng tamad, hindi naman pagod!"

"ang lumalakad ng matuling...hinahabol ng bombay"

"ang pinoy na hindi marunong magmahal sa sariling wika.....lumaki sa ibang bansa"

"ang taong nagigipit...sa bading kumakapit"

"larawan lang ang kumukupas!....pwera na lang kung digital ang gamit!

"Kung kaya ng iba, IPAGAWA MO SA KANILA!"

"Aanhin mo ang gwapo kung mas malandi pa sayo?"

"Kapag may sinuksuk at walang madudukot, MAY NANDUKOT."

"Matalino man ang matsing,matsing pa rin."

"Aanhin mo ang MALAKING BAHAY, kung KATULONG KA NAMAN."

Confused





Last March 23, I was able to attend a short talk regarding PHOTOGRAPHY 101. At first, it was a no no to me, all I want is to escape the calls that day even just for an hour. I wouldn't thought that it would inspire me after all.

I know that it was Atty. Raymond Fortun who will conduct the talk but it doesn't have any matter to me, no excitement at all, in short walang dating.

As i entered the mezzanine floor, I saw him seating in front of his Apple Laptop with a luggage downside. I was amazed because way back in high school, I only see him in TV debating regarding plunder case for former President ERAP. That time I am not a fan and I definitely dislike him. Time goes on that I entered college, I haven't heard anything from him leading to forgot all story about him. Then I suddenly realized that maybe he shifted or should I say follow his heart. The life in Photography.

As the seminar began, our training manager introduces him to us by giving some personal information about him. To my surprise, I learned that he is now the no. 1 wedding photographer in the Philippines. I like him now. Immediately I became a fan. While he is telling stories of his experiences as a wedding photographer, I just realized that even a person who is a lawyer in profession can make a difference out of what his heart says. Like Mr. Fortun, I can't imagine if he will be my professor in college, most likely he is very strict and very disciplined, maybe I'll drop all my units with him :)) But to know that he has this other side of him, wow I can't help but to raise my hands off. Astig talaga. All his stories are inspiring mostly to those who are beginner and to those who wants to be a photographer even just for a hobby.

Why confused? Because after the talk, I want to pursue atleast a short course for photograpy, atleast basic, just to learn advance from what I currently have in my knowledge. I dont know where to start but I believed one thing to do is to buy first an SLR.

Anyway, thanks to CS Training and Quality for conducting a one of a kind stress buster activity.
