Advertising Management
In every job interview I've had, the interviewer will always ask me why I chose Advertising Management as my course in college. Honestly, up to now I can’t give even myself an answer as to why I chose that. It's definitely a far cry from my hopes of being a surgeon or psychologist. And so, why did I choose that course?
I don't really know why I chose my major. It's an unexplainable selection. Maybe it was fate that brought me to choose AMG over the other courses in the list. Or perhaps it was the fact that AMG is listed on the first line under the heading of College Of Business and Economics…and is also the first on the list among all the other programs offered by all colleges put together.
When teachers ask me why I chose my major during the first day of class of every term, I often say that Advertising Management is a middle-ground for Fine Arts and Business Management, wherein my mom wanted Fine Arts and I wanted Business Management. Maybe it's that, but I can’t really say that I am sure about the actual reason. Let's just say that it is just one of the things that we can’t really use words to explain.
All I remember is that I chose advertising because I thought it would be cool (and glamorous) working in an advertising agency and doing all the commercials on TV or the print ads. I felt that advertising would be pretty exciting and is an ever-changing field. It would allow me to work with a lot of different things which would definitely assure me that I would never tire of what I’m doing.
So…why did I choose Advertising Management to be my major? I still don't know…but I am glad that I did choose it.

so hot!
It was super hot today! The car was transformed into an oven with the 3 of us in it. haha
I went out car-shopping with Dad and Koko. I love the Mitusubishi Outlander! I used to like the Ford Escape. I've never been real close to one, so I thought that the Escape was real nice...but seeing it up close made me think otherwise. haha I just didn't feel "safe" in it.
I like the look of the Outlander...It's like a bigger version of a mix between CRV and RAV4, but with a rugged touch to it. THe material seems more durable and since it's from Japan, I think it would have a better resale value as well.

HSK
am going to be taking the HSK(HanyuShuipingKaoshi) this coming October...Started reviewing this morning. I was browsing through the review book I bought when I registered. I understood like 50-60% of the stuff written there, but I was mostly switching between the book and the di tian. haha
I'd really like to study and be able to speak a number of different languages, like French, Korean, SPanish, etc. But it would be awkward...not to mention ironic...since I can't even speak my mother tongue that fluently.
I also feel that it would be so cool if everybody could understand each other even if we speak in different languages and dialects. hehe But then we won't be able to say something secret in a foreign place since other people will be able to understand what we are saying as well.

arggghhhh....asar nanaman ako sa isang tao.
Got my Globe bill today....High-blood...It totalled over Php2,000. Can you believe it? SMS messages cost me about Php10 for just one message. Then calls amounted about Php750 or more. Then there were also charges for calls that I received. I shouldn't be paying for that. What annoys me even more is that these calls were totally unnecessary. Want to know whats worse? These calls were made by a certain someone that I am getting really annoyed at. Not just because of the bill, but because of the trauma he caused during the conference. No, wait, I cooled off na. I just remembered what happened in Taiwan again when I saw my Globe bill.
I know, I know, I went to Taiwan to learn to become a better person. But there are just some people that get on other peoples' nerves. And THAT person is just one of them.

Gosh! Time really flies...Atsi She is going back to Iloilo on Sunday! Sigh!
Hey Atsi! KTV uli tayo next time punta mo dito...or lakad-lakad sa 168. haha
