So that's what's happening to the long-awaited Hillstar issue.

Friday, August 15, 2008

Shhh. Woke up at 3 to make my Hillstar assignments. I was so tired last night, as usual.

So back-to-earth experience. I remember sweating articles back in earlier years. :))

Hillstar is soon upcoming, I promise. Kung hindi matatagalan ang printing it will surely be out by the end of the month. We’ve really tried to come up with a great issue. Some staffers and writers wanted to stick to old tradition, but we all wanted to do the best work we can. Some are whiny, I had to put up with that. The article line-up is almost perfect. I hope the layout artists will be able to make the biggest difference, hope they get what I was going for. I’ll be layouting with them next week, anyway. :p

Whateeeeeeeev. Right now, I’m actually not connected to the net. I’m just drafting. Crap, I miss Multiply. :p

----> Just finished my articles. :D I'm on early morning high. Connected na rin ako sa net.

As far as I can tell, walang nangyari sa Hillstar last year dahil material pa rin ni Ate Bea and even ni Aldwin yung ginamit namin for the one issue na lumabas nung school year na yun. Hindi ako naninira; I'm just saying that I know everyone's missed Hillstar for so long. I know I have.

We tried to make it better. After a whole year of Hillstar going AWOL and MIA, I hope this will be a fresher sight. Kumbaga, yung effort na binuhos namin dito, bawi na sa isang buong taong absence. Sana (peace!). The feature articles are updated and in demand, as far as I've surveyed. The news articles are made sure to be packed and substantial. We've made sure that every page is worth reading, hindi tulad nung noon na ang tinitingnan lang na pages kung saan yung pangalan nila. And all the info will be available on the Multiply Hillstar site, and, as soon as they can, the alumni site.

KAYA BASAHIN NIYO ANG HILLSTAR. SOBRANG BLOOD, SWEAT AND TEARS YAN. KAPAG MAY NAKITA AKONG HILLSTAR NA BINASURA, ISUSUNOD KO KAYO. :))

At hindi lang dahil effort namin, kundi dahil kayo yan. Reflection lang yan ng DCHS: kung anong mga pinaggagawa niyo at kung anong mga sinabi niyo.

After this, we'll be working on the Filipino-Kadayawan issue.

To God be the glory!!! :D He has sustained us through everything.

And to Aldwin, if you read this, check out my last comment on your last blogpost.

By the way, students and teachers, you may contribute articles, poems and columns. Super open kami. And sometimes I nab articles from your blogs, I swear I do, and I already have. Pero syempre may permission. Diba Van??? Pero Hillstar din naman si Vanessa kaya hindi siguro magcount. :p But I tell you I am on the lookout for articles on the way. Assignment yun sa editors: to keep an eye out.

Aaaahhh!!!!!!!!! Past 5 na pala!!! Gotta get ready. See you in school. ;)
