A TERRIBLE EXPERIENCE????

Before, we were given a choice whether we will take movie maker or making lay out as our lesson. Well, the majority of our class chose movie maker because they said it is easier than the other.

At first, I was only taking movie maker for granted but as we started making one, I found it really hard. The truth is, I don’t have any experience in making a movie before so I was really hard up. I don’t even know what a timeline or a storyboard is at that time so I’m really acting like an ignorant. But thanks to my friend Aira, I learned how to put pictures and music to my movie but then there’s still a problem. Well, it’s not just placing pictures as many as you want to make a movie but you must also regard the timing of every picture to the music. It takes me a lot of time and it really is hard. I even thought that I wouldn’t be able to finish a movie in just a week because there are lots of timings to do and the pictures must also be connected to the music and I’m just a first timer on this. But even it’s hard, I still enjoyed making one because it’s getting more and more interesting for me as I discover how to add transitions, effects and credits in the movie. The only terrible thing I’ve experienced in making my movie is when the computer I’m working with hanged and I wasn’t able to save the movie I’ve done. I was really upset that time even though it wasn’t almost finish yet but I still exerted some efforts for that movie. Well, to cheer myself up, I just said to me, “that’s life.” (harhar)

As I moved on, I will improve in making a movie and I’ll be faster in making one I’ll make sure that the computer I’m working with won’t hang so that my effort won’t be wasted. (haha)

UNEXPECTED ENJOYMENT


Back when I was still a junior, I was so excited about our JS prom. I was looking forward to it and I prepared for it big time. But now that I’m a senior, prom is nothing but a simple occasion for me.

Before the promenade, we practice so hard for the cotillion and honestly, it’s only the reason why I have to prepare myself for the prom. I’ve planned before that I’ll just wear a simple dress for the prom but since I’m in the cotillion, I have to rent a gown and thanks to Mrs. Parel, we were discounted. Then, February 13 had finally come and well you can see a lot of gorgeous girls wearing their beautiful gowns around the campus. Actually, the promenade walk was finished when I arrived. I walk straight in our classroom because I feel embarrassed when people look at me especially when my guy saw me. I stayed with him for a moment and it is the happiest moment of the day for me before I went inside the dance hall. The program started and I started to feel uneasy because the gym was so crowded. We didn’t expect that the cotillion would start that early and it was quite unorganized because the music was different from the one we were practicing before but it still went well I guess. After that, the dancing started. Before the prom, I asked my best friend to be my first dance but unexpectedly a junior asked me to dance while Oliver was dancing with Jezreel. It would be rude for me if I reject the guy so I accepted the offer; anyway the guy is cute (harhar). At that time, I started to enjoy myself. In the middle of the occasion, brown out occurred twice because of the overload. At the first brown out, instead of panicking, we laugh and shout and we even take our picture using a camera with flash. The second one, I was in the dance floor and thank God, my partner is a gentleman and he escorted me back to my seat. Then the party continues. I was really having fun at the prom but I have some comments on it. First, it was a little bit unorganized. The gym was so crowded and it’s really hot and it caused our make up to be removed. We can’t move freely because the chairs were tied together. I also have a comment about our snacks. We were not given a drink and we were really thirsty after we ate our hamburgers. Well these are the comments I have for the prom this year. Then we watched the pageant for Mr. and Ms. JS Prom and we cheer for our senior candidates. I enjoyed it especially at the question and answer portion. After choosing who the Mr. and Ms. JS prom, the dancing continues until it came to the last five songs which end the promenade.

After that, we took a lot of pictures together with my classmates, friends and best friends. Well, I’ve never thought I would enjoy the prom this much.

SECOND TO THE LAST

Another heart-pounding test which even make our nose bleed and our head aches. Tests that make us roll our eyes around because of how difficult it is. A test, whether we like it or not, we need to take this third periodical.

I didn’t have any preparation for our third periodical test. Even though I know from the start that our test would be harder than the ones we have taken before, I still didn’t review my notes. And since our schedule of taking the test is on the afternoon, I find time to scan my notes during my free time.

During the test………………..
Well as expected, the questions were very difficult but thanks to my kind-hearted classmates, I was able to answer them all. (harhar!!! you know what I mean). I’m also glad I’ve got to scan my notes before the exam because if I didn’t, I don’t know if I could answer a single question. Well, on the other subjects, I just did my best in answering the questions and wait for the results.

After the test……………
I was able to breathe because another cavalry of my high school life was over and I’m glad it was already second to the last challenge of a student like me. Well I guess my only problems for now are the projects I need to pass.

As I moved on, I’ll be more responsible and I will gain more knowledge. I’ll see to it that on the next periodical test, I will review my notes so that I won’t just be depending on my classmates. (harhar)
