There are only few hours left before
the deadline, but our group is still thinking for the perfect monologue speech
to be passed. The assignment was given a couple of days before, yet we still
decided to make it as early as the time bomb. My adrenaline glands roar.
Passionately, I managed to move the pen as quick as copying other's homework.
The miracle was there; our group has the most beautiful speech of all, says our
Filipino teacher.
Back in elementary, where journalism
club is very popular, I could only look at our school's writers. I didn't
commit myself to journalism back then for I have something to have focus on
rather, and I needed to sacrifice writing. When I reached High School, I
decided to enter the world of campus journalism. I passed the auditions for
Buklod Diwa, the publication of PUPLHS. It's so cool being a writer I thought,
so I started being active to the school paper in a 'cool' manner, until my
Filipino teacher discovered me as 'good' one.
I am here because this is what I
wanted to do. It is my passion to write. I started it being so cool that I do
not know the essence of having the right responsibility of a writer has. But
that's me years ago; I have grown up. Every day, I wake up in a squatter’s area
and see people living in the sickness of our society. I know that with my pen,
magic can turn everyday sickness into a everyday party, where everyone can
smile fully and truly. This is my responsibility. I'm very proud to say that
mine's the World's coolest. To make or to see group of people laugh makes my
heart happy.
Since I developed my skill from writing
a monologue speech, I see myself in movies or plays as its writer/director.
Back in High School, directing is also one of my favorite. If not in
Journalism, you can see me in the classrooms of Theater Arts courses or
Broadcast Communication. But still, BroadComm people are also considered
journalists, so I don't really see myself far from this art of mine.
5 years from now, I'll be the coolest
journalist/professor of all time. Yes, I would love it if I could teach college
students even in part time. I'll let them learn the secret of being the coolest
guy on Earth. Just kidding. Because I believe that to write responsively is
also to teach. Serving the mass is my main goal aside from being a frustrated
lead vocalist of a rock band.
The coolest writing of all, It's what
I'm here for.
