A Day that differs from another day in the month. (March 5, 2009)

Winnie Cordero, a person in the Umagang Kay Ganda barkada in ABS-CBN is a very different personality in person but jubilant with her "Hello Philippines, Sa Luzon, Visayas, Mindanao! I am Live and alive dito sa ____(Place)" signature introduction on camera. What I really like about her is her style of communicating to the state. She has manifested eager flamboyance wherever she may be on camera.

I saw her this morning featuring CIA (Culinary Institute of Aristocrat) at TV first. Then, as I was on my way to school, I saw her in person with a different personality in reality. I witnessed her enjoying smoking a cigarette during the break with a crewmember or so. Of course, there are some people who have habits of smoking during breaks, but I believed that she was not very happy for some reason. Or am I really mistaken of reading her facial expression?

Ms. Cordero was an actress in the educational program of Knowledge Channel called Sineskwela together with the former Artistic Director of Tanghalang Pilipino whose name is Herbert Go.

Several days ago, I knew her crew would go there or at the bakeshop one of these days. It was something like a prediction or so. Generally, we can have 2 different personalities: Camera Personality and Behind-the-scenes personality. This applies to most extraverts.

Camera Personality- is the intentions of the personality to go with the vibes and expectations of the audience. Whether Cinematic or Journalistic.

1. Journalistic Camera Personality- This applies to broadcasters and radio people
2. Cinematic Camera Personality- This applies to actors in movies and theaters.

Behind-the-scenes Personality- Is the unique true-self of personality hidden from public vision via camera.


This is the video in the morning show Umagang kay Ganda, which is "Magandang Umaga Pilipinas".

Later, at around 3:00 to 5:00, I have witnessed something worth reminiscing. A group of Taekwondo People from the Philippine Taekwondo Association (PTA) who were trained in CSB (Colegio de San Beda). All of them are students of different schools. I was about to regret the gracefulness of martial arts earlier, but I certainly decided that it will do me no good. BTW, They are all black belters. This happened at school. The students was WOW-ed by the self-defense techniques. It was a demonstration to motivate students for the promotion of sportmanship.

If Taekwondo is comparable to Bruce Lee's Martial Arts, Taekwondo would be the amateur and Bruce Lee's Martial Arts would be the professional, regardless of cultural considerations.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
My teachers of CAS (College of Arts and Sciences) are great models of education and I stand for my friendship with some of them. It is like Alexander the Great having friends with his mentor Aristotle. Aristotle with Plato. Plato with Socrates. It gives me an advantage because, I would choose to understand them than to immerse myself in bad company.

Never conform to bad companies of friendship, because you will never know what would they do to you. They could be rude enough not to understand, accept and not to know themselves. As a student, conformity is a need of belongingness. This need to belong to a social group is essential together with unconditional love.

"True Social groups are not tied together like cactuses to pierce each other with thorns of mischief, but tied together like sunflowers with embracing petals to fill the company with trust and loyalty."

Remember this: "If a person does not make new acquaintances, as he advances through life, he will soon find himself left alone. A person should keep his friendship in constant repair."

The first sentence totally explains my situation on socialization. Nothing more and nothing less, that is the truth, the whole substantiated truth.

LASTLY, I am officially considered as an irregular student. Next week is already the Final exam Week and Clearance.

I am sure, I will do good in Sociology-Anthropology and Physics. If any of you has been wondering why I have only 2 exams, let me tell you this. I actually have 4 subjects (PE and Languages). In MDC, PE exam is usually practical exam. In Languages, my final examination was a group debate on the topic: "The BSN 5-year course should not be implemented."

I originally had 7 subjects. The 3 dropped-out subjects are "Drugs and solutions (Introductory overview to Pharmocology)", NCM 100 (Nursing Care Management 100) and the most merciless RLE (Related Learning Experience).

Pls. Wish me Buenas Suerte for those exams. It is the last test for the semester and for the course. YEHEY!!!!
