I got my contact prints just this afternoon! I felt so thrilled because they're not just any ordinary photos. These, my friends, are my college graduation photos which I will eventually keep for the rest of my life. So I really have to pick meticulously which the best ones are for each category (toga, sablay, formal, and creative). Honestly, at my first look on the photos, I commented on myself having an awkward smile. I find my smile here unnatural haha! But what the heck. For the toga category, I pick the 4th shot. For the sablay category, I haven't find my resolve yet but it's either 2nd, 3rd or 4th shot.

For the creative shot, I won't blame you if you can't pinpoint what my concept is. It was on the spot when I had my creative shot. I did have ideas for it but it was too late already and I didn't have the clothes and props to materialize it. So I just had to use whatever is in Relans' wardrobe. And voila! I found a turtle neck and a double breasted suit to save me from my demise. Good thing the photographer instructed me these poses that you see below after confessing how much of a dope I am in this kind of things. I think it turned out well but I have to choose the best one. For now, I'm leaning towards the 3rd shot. The 1st one is okay but I look so THIN. Maybe because of the angle. For the 4th one, I actually like the way I smiled but I don't know, I look gay there LOLOL. the 2nd and 3rd shots had me thinking. I eventually ended up favoring the 3rd shot since I'm looking at the camera and it's more appealing. For the formal category, I'm favoring the 2nd and 4th shots.

Although I'm having my gradpic processed already, my graduation won't be this coming April. I still have one extra sem to go before I get there. Nevertheless, I'm still on track, just a bit delayed. Everything will come into place at the right time. Just "keep moving forward".
