The Coolest of All


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.
