#WeekendWorkshop: Bringing the Share It Saturday Workshops Online

Workshop Weekend with the PLV Library is an initiative of the Library Department for interested PLVians. It aims to bring stress relief and productivity to the whole PLV community during the community quarantine period.
All PLV students, faculty members, and administrative personnel are welcome to participate as attendees and/or facilitators. Alumni? Yes, we would love to have you over too!

"There's always a story hiding even in the most vanilla-like scenario of life. One should look at something from different angles. Find that story. And when you found it, capture it."
Our first #WorkshopWeekend facilitator is a long time mobile phone photography enthusiast who took part in the ASUS PixelMaster Master Class campaign, learning more about the action-filled world of street photography. Here she was given the Pixelmaster's Choice Award (Day 1) and is the Second Best Photographer of the batch.
She hopes to share more about the basics of mobile phone photography so that PLVians may take better snapshots of things that matter to them the most.
"Bilang isang Kpop-fan at otaku, nakahiligan kong aralin ang sistema ng pagsulat ng ibang bansa partikular na ang Hangul at Nihongo (Hiragana at Katakana). Nakatutuwang makita ang mga lugar at produkto sa mga bansang ito (South Korea at Japan) na pangunahing ginagamitan ng sistema nila ng pagsulat kaya nang malaman ko ang tungkol sa Baybayin ay nakahiligan ko agad ito.
Nakatutuwa dahil mayroon rin pala tayong sariling sistema ng pagsulat at naniniwala akong hindi pa huli para ipaalam din ito sa iba. Tiyak na napakagandang tignan kung gagamitin natin ang baybayin dahil nagpapakita ito ng ating pagkakakilanlan na dapat nating ipagmalaki sa iba at maipakikita natin ito sa mga likhang sining na ating ginagawa at lalong higit sa pagsuporta sa mga grupong naglalayong buhayin muli ang baybayin.
Itinuturo ko sa iba ang baybayin dahil naniniwala akong dapat itong bigyan importansya at talagang dapat itong buhayin. Kung kaya nating aralin ang sistema ng pagsulat ng iba, tiyak na kaya din nating aralin at palaganapin ang sariling atin." - Angel Elyssa Delos Reyes, BSCE 1-1
