Life is not measured by the numbers of breaths we take, but by the numbers that takes our breath away.
September 30,2020; 12:00 PM. It was sunny afternoon until we already done eating our lunch. That day was a very memorable day I have in my life. Why? Read this until the end.
For a long time that I was thinking to have a YouTube Channel, here I am still thinking of what content should I do. I’m thinking for an educational Vlog but a quite entertaining and funny to my viewers.
Then one day one of my Professor in my major subject, give us a laboratory exercise that we (my classmates) should do. And that was presenting by means of video on how to perform a “Post-harvest handling” to a certain crop that we chosen. So, I decided to choose “Calamansi” since it is the only crop that I know that is available in our area (Well, I’m staying in a Dormitory of our school, that why it’s too hard for me to find other resources to comply to my said task that was given to us by our Professor).
So, here’s the story behind my memorable day.
After I eat my lunch that day, I was now thinking to do my project. And then, I also thought, why not I try also to start my Vlog? Hm. So, I ask my best friend if she can help me to take a video for my project together with my Vlog, which is having a same content, and she said yes, she is.
First, we decided to put a little bit makeup (just to make me comfortable in front of the Camera) and take first a photo that was supposed to be just for my Vlog's thumbnail.
But, because of our fascination in taking a photo of us we don’t even recognize the time that we already consumed in taking a picture. We’re about to forget the purpose why we dress up.
2:36 PM. There it comes the rain. So, after putting up makeup, lipstick and etc. in our face we end up to “SLEEPING” after we take hundreds of photos.
4:45 PM my, best friend ask me, “Mhegz, are still going to take your Vlog today?” I answered it “Hm. Let me think of it” then fall asleep again.
5:00 PM that day, “Mhegz, let’s go! The rain stop, stand up there and we’re going to Nursery to take your Vlog, we’re running out of time it’s about to evening” So, I have nothing to do, but to stand up and put again some makeup in my face.
When we are already at the area, I feel so nervous co's it’s my first time making a video. But I still keep calm. Few minutes after we arrive at the area my best friend told me, to start the shoot. First attempt, it’s a failed. Why? I just laugh and laugh and laugh. Because I feel I was look “EW!” HAHA Second attempt, it’s a failed again, third? Failed. Until, my best friend decided to just take a video, weather it’s good or bad.
After we decided to do it, I also thought that I should do my best to act normal as I am in front of Camera so, I do it. But, time to time, I can’t control myself not to laugh. Why? Because I feel, I do look crazy, because my best friend keep on laughing while she’s taking me a video. And not until I climbed the three of Calamansi just to pick up some even it's too, hard for me to do it. Yes! I’m serious I climbed like a monkey for the video.
Hours pass by and it’s getting dim in our surrounding and we hurry up co'z it’s already evening. After we go back in our dormitory I feel so tired, maybe because of climbing the three or it’s because I laugh unlimitedly in an couple of hours.
Minutes pass after we go back, I feel sleepy so I decided to sleep again. When I woke up again, I try to see the videos that we take that day. And it was so funny, co's it contains many interruptions, laugh, though it's my natural behavior but I feel I'm too hipper in this video and I look crazy on it. And then I'm thinking now, could this video fit to my project? Hm. I don’t think so, co's as far as I observe it will just fall into my Vlog. But, this was so complicated, because of all my mistakes. Hays.
Hey, guy’s I shared this with you just to remind you that if you are planning also to make a videos, make sure that your ready for so many times of taking it. Co'z it’s too hard to get off all of your weird thoughts and feeling when your in front of the Camera, you will feel to laugh even it's not funny. And also, don’t take your best friend as your camera man, because you will just make laugh and laugh and laugh, co'z their face will be look like a Clown on your eyes it is not just weird but it will be also funny like your watching funny videos. CAN'T DETERMINE.HAHA lol.
