Why did I choose this school:
It was no secret that I broke nanay's heart after seeing my failed grades. I was chilling on the sofa when she rushed to my side and asked me if I still want to continue studying. I knew nanay was disappointed but never showed it. She sent me to Naga City in hopes that Bicol can change me. I really had no choice but take the offer as I too have to prove myself that I still can.
About Ateneo de Naga University:
Ateneo de Naga University was no FEU. The people weren't rushing but always took there time. The air was from being polluted contrary to FEU. People were tough (women were fierce) but easy to get along with. My seclusion wasn't easy but Bicolanos made my stay worthwhile and enjoyable. I get along with almost all my professors. Like any schools, some teachers more from my minor subjects, didn't care so much as long as requirements are met. Professors from my department are usually those who put pressure on us in the Animation program. They make us question our skills and encourage us to be more of what we are and what we can do.
The department's facilities are one of the program's highlight. Batch 2013 was lucky to experience the new renovation and upgraded facilities before leaving Ateneo. "Resource Learning Center" is one of the places me and my geek friends spend our time, watching animations and reading animation/Illustration books which motivates us whenever we feel giving up. Proud to say, the amount our parents pay is equal to the facilities we use and enjoy.
My current job:
Currently, I am doing freelance work in relation to animation and illustration which are readily available online. Hopefully, before June of 2014, I'll be a part of an animation studio and continue to create characters until I become a renowned director as I've always desire to be.
How long did it take to find a job:
Before submitting my final exam as graduate a friend from Davao City is planning to create an animation Studio called my attention and asked me to work with him. Animators are rare and jobs are readily available with the right people, timing and influence one have.
