Last June 20,2015 we were asked to shoot 30 random people in the mall that we think looks stylish and edgy. The first thing that came to my mind was "how the hell am I supposed to have a photo of them?" Because I am actually shy when it comes to interacting with random people. We only got 3 hours to do that activity so we were in a bit of a rush. At the first hour I only shot less than 10 people because I was finding the right timing to approach the person because I was afraid of rejection but then I remembered what my prof said, "There are times talaga na marereject kayo and talagang ganun lang ang life. Kung ma-reject, then okay lang. Hayaan na lang then move forward sa iba". Yes, medyo hugot but she's right. There will be a lot of rejections especially in our industry but it teaches us to be thick-skinned and learn how to handle those rejections. In this activity, I have been rejected twice. Yep, not once but twice. After those rejections, I gained more confidence and courage in myself. I was able to approach more people and communicate with them better. After 3 hours, we were able to shot 30 people successfully.

Below are the people I found stylish and edgy that day:
