Days in Minutes #1

The previous week, the fifth Tilad online literary folio, entitled Kamoot, of the Ateneo Literary Association (ALA) was launched. Since the organization's usual layout artist, Kuya Pen, was busy working on his pieces for the SOLARA Art Exhibit in school, I took the job, with the help of my brother, Kuya Ken. The folio is posted here, and all photographs in it were taken by me. Tilad launchings were usually held in the school's Thesis Room, but the new officers of ALA decided to use the Leonardo's Lounge, for this venue suits the theme more. It was very windy there though that the projector screen kept on turning away from us, and the candles were not lit.
     I also became a part of the Gawad SSG this year. It's a recognition night wherein the student government of the university would present awards to students who excelled in their respective fields. I was a nominee in the Student Leader category. I didn't win, as expected, but the dessert (a buko pandan cake with a white chocolate piece on top) worth more than the trophy, so maybe, I did.
      What's more interesting than the two events mentioned, is the 3-hour trip Leir and I took yesterday to Legazpi, the 1-hour stay, and the 3-hour trip back here. We went there to witness this:

I bought Katcher nin Buray (don't ask for a translation, the book's hilarious!) by Mon Suanoy and Mga Tulang Tulala by Kristian Cordero.

     Leir asked me to cover it for ALA's publication, Flyleaf, which will be released on March. And I took the opportunity to take more photos:

     I spent more time sleeping during the whole trip. It's a good thing my pillow's with me. He almost always is, by the way.

I've been busy illustrating Leir's story for the storybook competition in school. This day's a slow day, however, for I've been stuck drawing Daddy. I don't know how to draw men, evidently.
