faux action sampler.

hayyy. dreaming about lomo. wish i can afford the ever so expensive films and developing fee, so i can try photography on acid; where flaws are the most splendid thing and fun that equatesto "who the hell cares?!"

side note: how come expired films are more expensive than the new one?

here's my first 2 shots in lomography, my only shots in lomo, courtesy of bekah's holga-

 

sigh...

3 sleeps to go... WEEEEEE!

 

 

SA WAKAS!! Natapos ko na ring basahin ang Life Before Man ni Margaret Atwood.

Dog-eared na nga ang kopya ko ay lalo pang naging dog-eared dahil matagal din itong na-stocked up sa bag ko. Taong 1987 pa na-publish itong kopyang naiskor ko sa Booksale ng 30 pesos. Malapit na itong maagnas.

Point-of-view ng tatlong tauhan ang buod ng nobela: sina Elizabeth, Nate, at Lesje [binibigkas na "Lashia"]. Salit-salitang pagsasaad ng kanilang mga kuwento at internalisasyon. May mga dates ang bawat chapter, nagpapaka-epistolary writing. Hehe. Giya na rin iyon para malaman natin ang flow ng plot dahil salit-salitan din ang mga pangyayari batay sa mga dates.

Sinikap ikonek ni Atwood ang kontemporaryong buhay ng tatlong tauhan sa period ng mga dinosaurs. Si Lesje, na bata pa lang ay mahilig na sa mga rocks at fossils, ang nag-contemplate hinggil dito.

Sa kabuuan, ang nobela ay tungkol sa mga relasyon. Sa mga relasyong sekswal. Halimbawa, ikinumpara ang pagse-sex ng mga tao sa iba pang hayop. Ang pangangailangang mag-contemplate sa sex bilang instinct. Pagkatapos, paano na? Sino ang magliligpit ng higaan? Sino ang aako ng responsibilidad ng pagpapamilya?

Tungkol ito sa mga one night stands ni Elizabeth. "Elizabeth is old enough to know that one woman's demon lover is another's worn-out shoe." Sa diborsyo. Sa palitan ng mga partner. Asawa ni Elizabeth si Nate. Si Lesje ay may William. Nagbaril si Chris, ang kabit ni Elizabeth. Nang matapos si Nate kay Martha, si Lesje naman ang kinarir niya. Nakipag-sex naman si Elizabeth kay William--sa partner ng kabit ng asawa niya. Punyeta! Parang nanuod ka lang ng Gimik o TGIS. Nagpapalitan lang ng mga syota.

May hint ng tulang Morning in the Burned House ang pagkakasunog ng nanay ni Elizabeth.

Nagsimula ang nobela sa mga linyang, "I don't know how I should live. I don't know how anyone should live. All I know is how I do live. I live like a peeled snail."

..at nagtapos sa, "China does not exist. Nevertheless she longs to be there."

Mga linya ni Elizabeth. Sa huli, nakatingin lang siya sa mga larawan ng The Art of Ancient China. Life before "man".

takutin mo ako, Algernon Blackwood.. at ikaw Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn na nagsabing "Words run away like water", basahan mo ako ng iyong 'One Day in the Life of Ivan Denisovich'.. at lumabas ang tula ko sa Phil Graphic Nov16 issue..

 

 

who said i'm excited? the organizer just told me make a calling card for contacts and networking after the shoot .

 

5 sleeps to go!

wooo. excited na ako sa first ever fashion shoot ko. for P250, i can shoot 3 models in a wedding theme shoot in n.cemetery, complete with all the lighting stuff, plus wind blower and SMOKE MACHINE, ahhyyyy, can't wait for nov. 14 to come. the only problem is; i'm fantasizing about doing a glamour aka macabre aka romantic vibe or "GLAMACAROMATIC,"

mala:

and since i am an avid follower of ANTM, my fantasy includes gorgeous models at least 5'7 in height. however, my expectation fails me again. i asked the organizer and she said that the  bride was about 5'3, the bride's maid 5'6 who has a real sized body type- to be politically correct, and the male mod el as groom is only 19 years old- my newbie senses tells me that the main bride is too small, the bride's maid is, umh, ahhh, not ideal, and the groom is too young for this kind of shoot. but then again, sino ba ako para mag reklamo... and its P250, with all those equipments, the SMOKE MACHINE, perhaps i can do magic during the shoot.

luckily, the organizer allowed me to bring a model for the casual wear that i keep on insiting during the meeting (even now i'm wondering how  my passive and silent attitude can change to something being assertive and aggressive when it comes to photography), and Jona, my former classmate, assented to my request in just a single txt message.

luckily, lucky, luck, perhaps this is my day.and i want to push it... perhaps any willing professional models here? or do you want to be a model for a day? or  build your portfolio? or feeling model na lang :D, basta, gusto nyo?... msg nyo ako and there's more...

ria bolivar and agnes dean, if it might just happen that you read this article, pls pm me if your willing and available this nov 14
