I also love to watch Korean dramas, read different au stories (the reason why I’m delulu haha), and scroll on TikTok. I still pursue this course, even if it is not my first choice, because it’s still related to the field I want to work in, the entertainment industry.

Sign: Gemini ♊️

Background: I love arts and crafts! Ever since I was in elementary, I have always enjoyed the creative process of making art. Funnily enough, I was also supposed to take up an arts-related course but due to financial constraints, I decided to pursue BACR in PUP for its free tuition. Nonetheless, I am still in touch with my love for arts and crafts in the form of crocheting. After a few months of learning, I turned this hobby of mine into a small business. My shop is still up and running to this date and you can see more of my works on Instagram, @yala__stitched!

In line with creating art, I am also able to showcase this part of me through my organization, PUP Circle of Research Enthusiasts!

Nickname: bri

Sign: aries

Background (any background that you want to share to the batch): Relevant to the subject at hand, I have experienced productions at the high school and college organization levels. These experiences range from music videos to short films. I've been a part of the front and back end support of such projects as a scriptwriter, technical director, video editor, and even the actor in such cases, though I am a bit camera shy. In relation, in my downtime, I play games and do silent streams (not that I don't speak there but I don't market my channel anywhere bc I only let some friends watch due to shyness) on Twitch of my quests in Genshin Impact or Honkai Star Rail or ranked games in Valorant, Farlight or Teamfight Tactics. I also want to branch out to make user-tech/lifestyle content but I really feel awkward holding out a phone at every moment, hopefully, it's a hurdle I could eventually pass. Besides this hobby I wish to pursue, in the future, I do want to work with social media or research firms in some form or maybe return to my STEM roots and become a communications engineer as communications technology really interests me too and I would love to learn how to operate these tools that are so important to our media production.

Background: A short background about myself: I am a hardworking student who, despite feeling tired, but  i still chooses to persevere. I enjoy playing the piano, reading, watching movies, and creative designing, such as table skirting and decorating for various occasions. Initially, I planned to attend PUP for my studies as it was my first choice, although I also got accepted to UP. However, since most of my best friends were going to PUP, I decided to join them there. ( kasi wala ako kasama at kakilala kaya mas pinili ko na lang sa PUP) It wasn't initially my plan to pursue this particular course, as my first choice was journalism, but it seems that this path was meant for me, as part of God's plan. Then, I am someone who enjoys trying and experiencing high heights, rides, and even roller coasters.

What excites you: I feel excited when the room is freshly cleaned  and newly changed of curtain and bedsheet. And cool as I enter, and I'm refreshed after a long day, especially when my favorite dish, buttered shrimp, is ready for me when I get home. It also brings me joy when my boyfriend picks me up using my dream car.

What annoys you?: Canceling plans on the day when I'm already dressed up and ready, keeping me waiting, not keeping their word when they say they will, lying, when I expected something to happen but it didn't, people who don't respect my decision and time, arrogant people, and close-minded who do not understand what i mean.

Name: Diana Mariel Valendia

Nickname: Diana/ Mariel/ Maye

Sign: Scorpio

Background: I used to love snapping pictures and making random videos as a kid, and as I grew older, I understood how vital it is to me. Even though years have gone by, seeing those memories I documented through videos and images makes my heart melt.

From elementary to senior high school, I was a member of campus journalists. I began as a young broadcaster in Filipino radio broadcasting, moved to Technical Director in junior high, and became an anchor in English TV broadcasting in senior high. When the pandemic began, I never imagined that I would be able to create my own YouTube Channel. It's not a big channel like those influencers on social media, but I made it to be my space where I can upload all the videos I took for memories so that after years, me, my family, and my friends will have something to watch and see how good all those days had been. However, since social media became a prominent topic during this epidemic, I was motivated and encouraged to create films or videos that may also inspire or help other people who will watch it. The contents include some of my interests, such as make-up tutorials, where I share my techniques in that field, product reviews, where I give my thoughts and knowledge about that product, travel vlogs, try-on hauls, and many other things. Now I see how I was able to achieve such kinds of things because back then I was the one who thought the content, filmed it, and edited it, and honestly it is not an easy job, I need to spend time to do those things, and properly balance my academics and other tasks. It's weird because when I was in high school, I honestly hated editing films or doing stuff with ICT connections since my patience couldn't handle it. So when I started editing my own video for my YouTube, I didn’t know that I was able to enjoy it. And now that I'm at college, even though communication research isn't my first choice, faith has led me here, so let it be. Now that I'm in my third year, I'm excited to see that we have a course in audio and video techniques, I'm looking forward to learning new ideas and approaches that I can use if I ever get the urge to create a video/film again, or learnings that I can use in the near future.

Where are you from? Calauan, Laguna

I used to be a leader type of student back when I was in elementary and high school. I also enjoyed joining school orgs, clubs and I always loved to be an officer in those clubs. I used to love extracurricular activities and my classmates can depend on my creativity when it comes to jingle making, dance and speech choir choreographies. Also, I used to love dancing and role plays. I also had an evident interest and talent in public speaking. However, everything changed when I became senior high school due to personal reasons.

I tried to revive my old self towards the end of my grade 11 year. I joined a declamation speech, I participated in an impromptu speech, and I joined a field demonstration dance contest, representing my strand, HUMSS. Everything was going great, but pandemic happened. So all of my efforts to bring back my drive in school all went in vain. Due to pandemic, not only did I lose my passion for everything, but I also forgot how to socialize, and I developed a fear of public speaking—one thing that I loved the most.

Going college, I tried once again. I always loved broadcasting and journalism, and I used to be part of those clubs in elementary and high school. I even earned several medals and certificates competing for editorial writing in elementary, and I became news anchor in our radio broadcasting team in high school. In the pursuit of self- redemption,  I tried to enroll to any mass communication courses, for I believed that's the course I needed to get my energy back. The only state university that accepted me was PUP. One of my course choices were BACR  because it has "communication" in its name. Never thought of the "research" part. I was accepted in this course, BACR. I was happy and excited, not until it didn't meet my expectations. This is not what I wanted. I wanted to write, not academically, but in the essence of journalism. I wanted to broadcast, I wanted public speaking, not loads of research papers. If I will have an opportunity, I will definitely shift to BA Broadcasting or transfer to any university that offers Mass Communication course. But I am already in my third year now, and my family is not privileged, so I guess it's too late now.

I am hoping that soon enough, I'll have something to do that I find exciting. I hope that I can finally realize my purpose in life, until then, I'll be waiting.

Name: Angela Mae Cervania

Nickname: Gela

Sign: Gemini (two-faced and intellectually curious daw)

Background: Ever since I was young mahilig na akong magsulat. Naging secretary kasi ng Brgy. namin noon si Mama. Halos everyday ko syang nakikita sa harap ng typewriter nya (wala pa kaming computer noon) Tuwang-tuwa pa ako kapag malapit na syang matapos kasi finally, me naman. Magagamit ko na ang typewriter nya. I grew over the years writing thoughts that ran through my mind and even got myself into writing fan fictions, epic poetry, and novels I never got to finish (tamad)

I was in elementary naman noong mahalin ko ang entablado. Naging malaking parte ng buhay ko ang stage ng bawat school na pinasukan ko. Naging sandalan ko ang bawat panitik at kwaderno. I always had the passion for writing and acting but now I don’t even know where I’m good at (charot, i’m good at making reklamo 🤪) Hindi ko alam kung kailan, but one thing remains certain: I will allow my words to dance on the page once more and share tales that resonate with the hearts of many.

Name: Roseanne Cataluna

Nickname: Rosa

Sign: Virgo

Background: I was a voice student in junior high school for 4 years, I took part in a variety of performances and events. I also started mentoring my fellow students by teaching them and nurturing their talents in music. I thought at the time that I was destined for a career in music. However, when I entered senior high school (SHS), I took HUMSS as my strand At the same time, I embraced the duties of youth leader at our church, where I shared the Gospel and helped students from various schools in growing in their relationship with God. This helped me by  progressively become more comfortable with public speaking, It also expanded my perspective. I realized that I may have a passion in talking to people and helping them because I want to share kindness because the world is cruel enough. Although  I hadn't originally planned on a career in communication, I've always had a great desire to study and develop the confidence I'll need to handle any challenges that may come my way. Given my lack of experience, I must admit that I have some concerns about pursuing a profession in this area.Hoping that I'll be able to grow and embrace this path that I'm currently taking.

Background: Like others, CommRes wasn’t my first choice, but because it was still related to the career path I planned to take, I took it. So far, it's still bearable and manageable. I think that how well I've managed to cope till now has been supported by the warm and inclusive environment of our block, so a big thanks to them <333. In addition to being a full-time student, I also participate in an academic organization at COC that helps me enhance my skills and encourages me to step outside of my comfort zone and do things I didn't realize I was capable of. More about me: I love watching, I find peace and comfort every time I watch. My favorite genre is romance, and because of this, you could say that I am a hopeless romantic haha jk. I occasionally read manga, manhwa, and Wattpad, which mostly are romantic-themed, yes I'm 100% romance girlie haha.

Background: Arts is my escape from reality, it provides me a canvas for self-expressions and it enables me to explore and covey the depths of my emptions, thoughts and creativity in ways that words alone cannot capture. I am also passionate about making films, the passion I have for film making somehow ignites my imaginations and allows me to create and craft stories that I really wanted to put into actions, I have experienced working as an artist and script writer for Nonagon Production way back 2019. I came from Colegio De San Lorenzo as a Film and broadcasting student, however upon transferring at out university the only slot available at the entire Communication College is BACR, it is actually my dream to pursue the film and broadcasting industry as it captures my interest and the my passion about making films. Being a transferred student is not easy, I have to deal with new environment, talking and meeting new people didn't help me with my mental health as well, but as time goes by I learned to communicate and be friends with some.

Background: My dream program is BA Film or anything that involves performing and production because I like watching films, video taking, editing, and doing silly things in front of the camera. Hopefully, I still have the time and opportunity to pursue it after my first degree (kaya pa ba tapusin eme lang). Honestly, hindi ko plan ang CommRes dahil hindi naman ako magaling magsulat, lalo na ng mga research. So I’m still in the process of learning and appreciating it. Pero maganda talaga siya, totoo talaga. Sa ibang aspeto naman, I discovered my passion for performing when I first encountered theater or tanghalan as a club or organization in grade 7, which is a memorable experience that taught me to be confident on stage. Currently, I am a member of Teatro Komunikado.

Sign: Leo (ruler of our own—wants to see and be seen) ♌️ 🦁

Background: Ever since I can remember, I love arts in its many forms, hence why I wanted to pursue filmmaking as it combines my passion for writing, video editing, and graphics all in one production to make a story alive. However, personal circumstances cannot support this idea which is why I had to transfer from being a film major to being a communication research student in a state university. It caused me a lot more than just setbacks in my academics; nonetheless I continue to take this course one day at a time. I used to have a small business, an online home cafe called Mendelatte, to reconnect and find comfort, but now I mostly focus my extra time in university organizations that are aligned with my interests— mainly PUP BiblioFlix, KPL-PUP COC, Hataw PUP, and PUP COC Student Council. I will forever be grateful for the relationships I've built within the PUP community, as it helps me cope up and get through my college life. 😭✋

Background: Honestly, there isn’t much to share about me. I’m a working student. I am 21 years old. My birthday is on August 26,2002. I have 4 siblings and all of them are boys. I love watching k-dramas and listening to music. I also loved reading books when my free time.

I love taking care of kiddos since I already have 1 niece and 2 nephews. I am an ambivert. Sometimes I love being with other people and hang out with them. All of my friends called me a social butterfly for being the sociable to others and being talkative.But, sometimes I believe I’m an introvert too. After all the fun from the outside, when I’m alone I felt my social battery goes down. There’s a time that I’ll isolate myself to the point that I won’t talk that much and overthinks a lot.

Lastly, I just wanna share that I’ve been through a lot of traumas that I do self-harm for several times. However, I am grateful and blessed that I’m still breating and trying to survive my everyday life. I learned that from those past traumas I’ve been through breathing and praying is the main tool to survive. That’s the reason why as well my favorite quote is that “better days will always come,just trust the process”.

Name: Mar Theodoriel E. Galvez

Nickname: Theo/Maru/Tey

Sign: Gemini

Background: There’s nothing much to tell about me, but here are some, I’m currently a member of the PUP dance organization which is Move 2 to the Groove, I really like dancing and doing dance covers in my free time. I like performing but I get too nervous every time I’m in the limelight so when dancing in groups I tend to prefer dancing at the back, but I’m working on it!

Besides being nervous when in the limelight, I’m also shy and socially awkward, so I’m not fond of socializing much. Actually, it was not that bad in the past because I made lots of friends and socialized a lot, uh no maybe it’s actually worse in the past if I think about it because when we’re not classmates anymore I wouldn’t even talk to you again, I don’t know why I’m like that, it just happens, but I’m not like that anymore, but yeah will still prefer alone time over everything.

Socializing = Communicating, So it's given that I don't want to be here, I just thought that Mass Communication was equivalent to Communication Research in PUP, at the time, but I was completely wrong(As someone who doesn’t often do searches, life placed me where I am forced to search most of the time), and I still deeply regret it, but at least I’m doing fine, I just want to graduate pls. In my mind, any communication courses will do because I plan to apply as an F. A and someone in the past told me that any communication courses will do.

I was already enrolled in another university with a course I would rather have than my current course which is Information Technology, but yeah, the “majesty of PUP” made me choose to be under commres as long as I became a PUPIAN.

I don’t really like communication, I’m more of a math or science person in my mind, but yeah communication must be meant for me, it’s been pulling me to it from senior high wherein I let my friend convince me to take humss strand despite being registered in another school as a stem student, so yeah I just let it be.

And despite all of this what I wanted to become is to be a writer because I’ve been a fan of stories ever since I was a child, I just really love reading the most (not academics give me a break.) But yeah because being a writer is not as lucrative as other professions, I became confused and unsure. Luckily writing is something I could still do and continue, and this time I’m going for it.

Either way, it wasn’t that bad,  life is full of surprises you wouldn’t know where it could take you, but at least it’s been a fun journey so far. That’s all. (So much for saying there’s nothing much to share, I just had fun telling my story haha)

Where are you from?: Novaliches ( Traffic Capital eme )

Most favorite film(or series) in the last five years:  I honestly don’t know what’s my favorite show, but the ones I remember right now are alchemy of souls and weak hero, so maybe it's them. But if you ask me about a book series then it will be Omniscient Reader and Lord of Mysteries.

Music: My top favorites at the moment are Maneskin, Ridleys, Doja Cat, NewJeans, Boy Next Door, and Riize.

Name: Elyssa Mae Macaraeg

Nickname: Ely

Sign: Sagittarius

Background: At such a young age, I found myself in the magical realm of arts and crafts. Together with someone who's into the arts as well, it made me more interested in transforming what seems ordinary into something extraordinary. I found solace in expressing myself through dancing, acting, painting, sketching, and drawing various things. I simply let myself get lost in the process of creating something, getting wind of it. Ever since, I knew that I wanted to pursue courses related to the arts, but I guess life really has a knack for ignoring what people want, which also made me realize that not everyone has the luxury of getting the things they dream of.

And as of now, I am a writer for UNDERSCORE, a publication organization under the Department of Communication Research.

Name: Cristina Mariel L. Dalistan

Nickname: Tina

Sign: Capricorn

Background: To be completely honest, I actually don't like sharing any information about myself, but I guess I could try for now. I like to immerse myself in all things that are art-related; may it be films, paintings, literature, or fashion— I like things that are made with creativity, passion, and emotion. I am also very opinionated, I must say. Despite wanting to pursue creative writing/literature or political science before going into college, I feel as though I've been gradually learning why I have been led to the path of communication research.

Some of the recently released films I like are Aftersun (2022), Petite Maman (2021), Sound of Metal (2019) and C'mon C'mon (2021). As for TV series, I like Bojack Horseman and Better Call Saul.

Nickname: Jake (I mean with my four-letter name with one syllable what do you expect? LOL)

Sign: Taurus

Background: Just like some other students here, Communication Research was not my first choice (tbh it was my 5th choice), supposedly, I planned to take civil engineering for college and other program that is closely related to science (science is just a majestic subject). So yeah, I’m kind of a vanilla person with nothing much to share besides my birthday which is on April 21, 2003, and I’m a 20-year-old full-time student. Lastly, I also love spending my time playing online games and reading some unnecessary things on Reddit.

Nickname: Gla

Sign: Taurus

Background: Like other students here, Communication Research wasn’t my first choice. I’m not into writing, reading, or other hobbies that are actually necessary with this course. At first, I was kind of nervous and anxious kasi iba yung gusto kong tahakin. But as time passes, I find it challenging pero, interesting and fun naman. I’m musically inclined, I’m into singing and naenjoy ko lang siya nang sobra back when I was in junior high kasi I experienced performing sa harap ng crowd, until after pandemic naging mahiyain ako (hahahah 😅). I love sleeping, eating, watching random videos such as TikTok, reels, etc. Skill, I can do many things in just a short period of time kapag alam ko na I don't have much time to do it and it's getting late already. I can also multi-task. I am also an organized person (in terms of my things). I love tragic stories kasi crying in movies and books makes me feel good. I'm also interested in arts such as painting, calligraphy, and bullet journaling. Aside from my career, I also want to build my own orphanage and home for the aged in the future. That’s all po!

Name: Gino Sajorda
Nickname: Gino
Sign: N/A

Background: I'm a working student. I taught as an ESL teacher for three years and worked as a VA Video Editor for almost a year now. I plan to take a break from work since I got really drained and my studies are getting affected negatively already. It's also beginning to affect my relationships. I'm in a season of refocusing and rearranging my priorities, dreams, and goals.

Most of my interests revolve around the christian worldview and theology. I prefer in person or face to face discussions and conversations because that's where I could be more genuine compared to communicating through the social media. Lastly, if there's one thing I could share with everyone, I like to listen more than I like to talk (even though it seems like the opposite). If you want to know me to see if we could be friends or if you just want to talk, feel free to approach me and say "hi". (I won't really talk when I don't know the topic but I'll surely listen or speak when needed.) Grace and peace!

Where are you from? I live in Cubao, Quezon City near Crame.
Favorite Film or Series in the last 5 years: My all time favorite is Lord of the Rings. For the last 5 years, I liked watching the kdrama "Because this is my first life" and "Romantic Doctor". I also like Cristopher Nolan films very much!

Music: I like listening to Hymns, orchestral, and classical music. I also listen Cody Fry's songs.

What excites you?: I like deep talks. When people get serious about what they're talking about, I get really interested and excited as well. Serious in a way that they become passionate about it or sincere when sharing their thoughts.

What Annoys you: I'm annoyed when people are being disrespectful, inconsiderate, self absorbed/narcissitic, or insensitive. Having different beliefs are not really a problem for me. But being unecessarily disrespectful and inconsiderate is what really annoys me. (of course, I can be guilty of this too sometimes and that's why I don't like it)

I love cats so much, but we don’t have a pet cat. I am an introverted gurlie, but when I am with someone with whom I feel comfortable, I become so extroverted that people around me become shocked whenever they find out that I am an INFJ.

Sign: Scorpio

Background: I would describe myself as an individual who is very eager to learn and gain more experiences. I would say that I am jack of all trades master of none because I am well-versed in a range of things but there is not one field in which I can claim to be the best. But nonetheless, I am apprehensive about dealing with obstacles and challenges that may arise and through that, I am proud to tell that I am still learning and improving about life's circumstances. In addition, I am currently a full-time working student that allows me to be adaptable and a quick learner of all varieties of things. I consider my journey from the past three years as a roller coaster ride that provides me the exposure and opportunities I need to figure out what I am surprisingly good at and what I can contribute more to the table.

Sign: Capricorn.

Background:

Educational background:

Navotas National Science High School - Junior high.

Filemon T. Lizan Senior High School - Senior high.

Brief personal background:

I'm no Ludwig Beethoven, though I used to find serenity in creating music through playing instruments such as my guitars, piano, and drums, I'm definitely not Gordon Ramsay, though I do enjoy preparing simple meals of which I passionately feast on regardless of the taste, and I'm certainly nowhere near the finesse of the late, great, Kobe Bryant on the basketball court, but I do have a special love for the game.

I am, however, the son of the most loving set of parents that the universe could ever set its eyes on, a brother of my favorite and only sister, a 21st century student and researcher, and a dreamer who God willing, hopes to be considered as one of the cream of the crop lawyers in the Philippines, if not the world, in due time, who shall resonate a positive impact, bring life to whatever's left of our justice system, and be a beacon of truth and integrity for people from all walks of life, all of which, to contribute in building a more democratic, diplomatic, and productive society to thrive in for us and the next generations to walk the planet.

Conclusively, in relation to the course at hand, BROA 30013 Audio Video Techniques, I too, find interest in watching Korean dramas, sci-fi films, and locked-room mysteries among others, not solely for entertainment, but for social awakening, stimulation, and personal growth as well.

Background: Just like other BACR students, this is not really my dream course, and I was actually enrolled in a different university, but I decided to withdraw my enrollment and take my slot here at PUP. When I was in JHS, I always wanted to take a course in communication; I felt like it was 'my calling'. But when I was in SHS, things changed, and I wanted to take a medical-related course, but here I am, a communication student XDDD. I guess communication/media field really is for me. Other things about me, I love cooking, and recently, I cooked the most delicious pasta I ever had in my life, (siyempre luto ko eh) and my family loves it actually, everytime may occasion sa bahay niluluto ko na ang aking special yummy pasta recipe. I cannot be around people 24/7; I need my alone time, but I do go out sometimes just to feel something. I love sleeping, especially on freshly changed sheets and pillowcases. Lastly, I love listening to music, watching films and series, dressing up, and writing in my journal.

Sign: Libra (compassionate and kind daw haluh)

Background: As a person who have been always interested in Science and Math during highschool, I actually wanted to be a barrio medical doctor para may legacy kimmy. Actually during pandemic, nasa very indecisive and lost era ako at di ko na alam ang gagawin ko sa life ko if mag arki, engineering, nurse, investigator, law, or whut. I think lagpas sampung career na napropose ko kay mama then one day kakabinge watch ko ng documentaries sa i-witness I found a very good one. The documentary was entitled as "Ambulansiyang de Paa" na award winning pa kabog. Grabi yung naging impact nito sakin since I was watching that during pandemic plus yung locale sa documentary ay people from Oriental Mindoro which is province namin. After that, nagsearch pa ako and I found out na hindi lang sa hospitals kulang ang mga doctors but also sa mga barrios kaya charan. I think it is fate that led me here sa CommRes and I never had regrets for being here because of my college peers and lesson I am learning from this course.

Name: Haidee Racquel Antic

Nickname: Haidee/Dee

Sign: Aries ♈ (bold and ambitious)

Background: For the past three years, I've been a working student, having worked at three different companies before landing at my current position with Open Access BPO, where I've stayed the longest. (healthy yung environment + makatarungan yung pasahod hihi). BACR was my fourth choice, but it seems fate had other plans for me. While I could have been reconsidered for admission to UPLB, I made the deliberate choice not to pursue it because I needed to work in order to support myself. (another story of passion vs. practicality :"<). Despite this, I'm genuinely enjoying my time here at PUP, and I'm still grateful to be an ISKA.

Beyond my university commitments, I also shoulder additional responsibilities. I currently serve as a Lector at the National Shrine of Our Lady of Guadalupe, and I hold a position in the Parish Youth Ministry. These roles help me stay grounded in my faith even amidst a busy schedule. After all, everything I do is driven by the desire to glorify Him! 🙏🏻

Where are you from?: Makati City

What annoys you?: For now, yung mga memang SK candidates na walang sense yung credentials + Corrupt Politicians (yes Fiona?)
