It's all getting real

I just got done with mid-terms and I screwed it up pretty badly. I didn't really study for it and I'm paying the price for it. Well, I guess I caught the 'it's-the-final-semester-that's-why-i-don't-give-a-shit-anymore' symptom. It wasn't expecting that to happen but I guess I got tired after working hard for all four semesters. Either way, it's a good wake up call for me to boost up my grades.

With mid-terms done, it's the finals next. I've already started packing and I'm preparing to send some stuff back home. I've also bought my flight ticket home. It's all getting real.

Side note; I've picked up my camera again after a month and a half. I guess I needed the break. I've been doing matting with my prints. It's going to go up and be on display. I'm excited. I love my college, it makes me feel like anything is possible. x

A concert we went


Summer Diaries: A concert we went.

On 23rd of May, my friend and I attended a concert by a famous Japanese rock band, ONE OK ROCK. I couldn't do any filming in the arena because it wasn't allowed, not even a selfie before the performance started. But it's alright because I could enjoy the performance to the fullest without having a camera blocking my view.

I don't have much to say about the concert except knowing how awesome it was. It was my first time attending a concert in Yokohama Arena. I must thank my friend, Benj, or I wouldn't have had the chance to see their concert in Japan, ever. It was amazing how he could still sound awesome despite having a pretty bad sore throat. After the concert, I was having withdrawal effects right and decided to buy some concert merchandises such as T-shirts and sticker set. Can't fight the inner fan-girl in me. (I'm hopeless when it comes to One Ok Rock).

Ended the day with a dinner with Mai at some izakaya. We talked about our plans for the future after graduation. It's scary but I think we'll manage. We always do.

I also did some experimenting with filming on the day of the concert and whipped up a short 1min-2min video about 2 days ago.  Hope you enjoy it. It's nothing fancy but yeah. x
