been watching lotsa of local tv. love love love the maggi tamarind soup base commercial. it's so different.

love other local commercials that's been done creatively.... globe commercials, fita commercials... wish more commercials were done that way... wish i was behind those things, too :)

I guess it's about time I updated this thing... with none of the test and stuff...

Life has been treating me well... been through a lot, but God allowed me to get through them with passing colors. Had a chance to work with blocktimers for IBC 13... got to produce a show... learned a lot.... learned that I can write, produce, voice over, video edit, do musical scoring, and host.

I was a host for 2 episodes... well, 2 and a half... they mangled my second episode to do reruns and stuff. I quit because these people were not paying me enough for the work they required of me. Imagine doing all those things for only 12000 a month!! Apparently, they thought the other show was a freebie. I received a total of 14,000 of the 22,000 they promised me. I decided never to work with them ever again.

On a positive note, I got over my stagefright because of that. Now i'm willing to be in the limelight. Heck, I even went to an audition held by Lito Casaje for a modelling stint.

Oh, yeah, got a text from them yesterday, they were asking me if i wanted to produce for them again. I just told them that I could not commit the time for editing because i'm so busy. It's not quite true, but I am getting busier this month. Meeting more clients, getting more projects. Hopefully I can work with a major network and get paid per segment.

I have learned my lessons:
1. Never present any concept if you have not agreed on the price yet
2. Never EVER work without a contract.

I'm getting a move on in life... others may say it is coincidental, but I believe it's because I am giving more time to God now.

I just hope I can earn my millions this year so that I can help my parents out.

Short blog for now.. still getting used to writing again.
