We attended our first class for the 2nd semester today and it was as always, short, dreadful and exciting :) I once again arrived late in school and was actually clueless of what the room number is of our first subject (talk about being responsible, HAHA). I was looking forward to attend my first subject because it's all about advertising. And I really really love advertising though I'm really not that creative :) I just love the thought of making people buy your product by mere words, phrases and images. I was able to get lots of new ideas from our professor. He taught us that
reality does not usually sell. If for example, you wanna be famous, say on friendster, you'd build an image that would make people like you. If you do otherwise, you probably want social suicide. I've met a handful of people who lie so that people would like them; those who'd say that they want this or that or they're like this or that when in fact their personality's entirely opposite. Also, those who join the bandwagon because they wanna be "in". Pathetic, really. I've also known people who look entirely different from their friendster and myspace profiles. And I'm like "
hindi ko siya maalala...". I have nothing against these people though, their motives are totally understandable in the first place. There was once in my life when I wanted so bad to fit in, then I eventually got tired of it. So maybe these people would too :). Maybe they'll eventually realize that it's waaaaaay better to meet friends who'll like you and love you for who you really are and look like :)
Our speech communication class is scary. I thought days writing speeches were over. Imagine having to deliver memorized speeches. I can't even deliver a speech properly with a copy of my speech plan on my face and then now I have to memorize it? Gaah. But I believe that despite the course's dreadful requirements, it'll come in handy when I grow older. HAHA :) I'm trying really hard to think positive by the way *winks*
I'm gonna share pictures I took yesterday with Chelly and Frances while killing time in UP :)
Just to make things clear, I'm not anti-social, I'm just pro-reality :) These pictures are unedited by the way.
