We are all innocent

Day 2 of my Daily Chronicles.

Here I am again, for the second day about to tell you what happened to my day. This is fun. As long as I have internet connection, I will remain telling all the stories that happen to me.

Yesterday was the second session for our directing workshop and Sir Morny focused on the relationship of the director to his/her actors, it was called Actor's Director workshop wherein the goal of the workshop was on how director will approach the actors, and also, how to make your vision in directing a play. We had familiar activities such as name proclaim, and the game where we were given 4 lines that are not connected with each other, and the goal is to create a scene that makes these lines coherent by creating an effective blocking. There were activities that I just knew yesterday, such as the Salutation to the Sun, and the Big Small Game wherein we focused on the tension of the body and how we push the limits of our body. These series of workshops were ones of the most interesting ones ever since I was joining artistic workshops. We will be having another directing workshop the Monday after next with Doc Je again. This will be exciting!

After the workshop we decided to have an overnight at Inna and Nico's, and watch some movies. Thank God natuloy siya. We spent hours deciding what to do after the workshop. Before going there, we stopped by McDonald's to buy food and wait for the others and then we saw other enta alumni! Nandoon si Ekha, si Tal, si Ate Jedyne, and Sang Mee who we first saw sa Ateneo. It was cool 'cause there were 4 generations of EB that were there, from Ate Danica's to Mark's.

We arrived at Inna's late in the afternoon. First, we ate early dinner, and watched some video clips of plays, and pictures, etc. Finally, we watched the horror movie, Grave Encounters. Low budget horror film daw siya pero in fairness, nagandahan ako dahil horror nga talaga. Hindi na nga ako makatulog kagabi dahil sa sobrang naiisip ko yung mga multo din. Effective in fairness. Nagulat lang ako na ang rating niya sa Rotten Tomatoes ay around 40%+. But anyway, the movie-watching was fun!

While watching the movie, sumunod na sina David, Dolly, Kuya Kalil, Nicole and Sang Mee. Nag-inuman sila habang kami naman ay nanonood lang ng mga random movies. It was the typical inuman / movie-watching night kila Ina. We had to spend the long weekend this way! Sayang ang four-day weekend!!! Anyway, nakatulog na kami ni Ina around 5AM na! Una, dahil sa hindi talaga kami makatulog, and pangalawa, dahil sa nagkuwentuhan pa kami.

The most interesting thing that happened last night was when I can't really sleep because of the movie. Kami na lang ni Inna ang gising sa kwarto habang si Timmy and Pat ay tulog na tulog na. Sabi ko kay Ina, ma-text nga si Nico na pumunta sa room namin para samahan kami. Eh, si Nico ay naglalaro lang pala sa kabilang kwarto. Tapos nang pumasok si Nico sa room, may binulong siya kay Inna. I asked what it was pero they didn't tell me, it was something their Mom want to tell Inna daw. So I didn't really care. So, here's the fun part:

Since 'di nga ako nakakatulog, nakatitig lang ako sa pintuan ng kwarto hanggang sa napapapikit na ako. And then suddenly, may humawak sa leeg ko! As in, parang may kumalabit sa 'kin or parang may nag-rub sa neck ko, I couldn't really figure that out. Bigla akong bumangon. Then I asked Inna and Timmy if they woke me up. Hindi naman daw. Tinanong ko si Inna kung nasaan si Nico. She said, baka nasa kabilang kwarto pa rin, naglalaro. So I was a bit uneasy, 'cause I was sure someone touched me. Humiga na lang ako. Thinking who the hell did it. Tapos bigla kong naisip na tingnan 'yung nasa ilalim na kama. And there was Nico!!! Tae, pumasok pala siya sa room nung nakatulog ako!!! And then went under the bed, just to scare me! So far, you ang pinaka nakakatawang nangyari kagabi for me.

This morning, Timmy, Pat and I had breakfast there. Then umuwi na kami to Katipunan. Dumaan muna kami sa Full Booked to, you know, tingin tingin na naman ng books, etc. Hanggang sa narinig ko sa BGM nila ang kantang "Innocent" by Our Lady Peace, hence, the title. At sa sobrang nagandahan ako, I had to search it.

So anyway, that was my day yesterday. Page 35 of 366. Done! So ang goal ko talaga ay ma-document ang bawat ang araw ko, and so far my day yesterday was fun and productive (even though I cut a class). There was the workshop and I had fun last night! Day 1 of our 4-day long weekend gone! Haha. For today, baka mag-chill lang ako sa dorm and do other acads/orgs stuff. At bukas naman, ang pinakahinihintay kong discernment for the executive board. I hope all will be well. :)
