Editing


Sitting and facing those two screens for 8 hours is not a joke. In short editing is not a joke.


I love editing. I want to explore more about it and being able to produce a good output is very fulfilling. I haven't seen wrong and bad things about editing except the computer itself. Editing, is in demand in this generation. A lot of videos where produced in the social media that would even gain a lot of views and cash.


The thing about editing is that, it takes a lot of time for you to finish a single video. YouTubers will relate to this. "editing cave" is the term editors used. "Cave" because, most of the editors will be stuck for a day or two in that place just to edit.


When I edit stuff, I would really have a stretching time after 3 straight hours of sitting on that office chair. [I hope editors will do so] Editing had a big effect in my daily routine. Before my PC quit, my editing cave is in my house. Those times, I feel like a call center agent. I have this attitude where I start editing when 12 midnight strikes. I sleep around 5 am and woke up in the afternoon. My body clock totally changed. That time I called myself "nocturnal".


I've seen these videos about body system etc., That time I worry about the future because, I really don't want to be unhealthy. Before I was converted as BAC (Born Again Christian), there's no year that I would be admitted. My parents suffered a lot because I am prone to sakit. I don't want to experience the hospital again, miska naay gwapo na mga nurse di najud ko.


First sem is done. Free days is facing me, I started to plan my week by living healthy. I am trying to go back to my old routine where I sleep around 10 pm and wake up early in the morning. Apan sama sa ingon sa uban, "dili tanan sayon". I suffered again, insomnia. I lay in bed around 10pm phones off, lights off, eye mask on. 2am strikes, still I am not yet sleepy and through those hours, a lot of things in my mind came in. Satan mocks at me, bad scenes and pictures bombarded my mind. Tears just falls down and I feel so devastated and hopeless. Gusto lang man jud gud ko na makatulog na. I experienced those things for a week.


Those nights are the nights that I don't want to happen again. Impure thoughts and dangerous acts might happen if you can't control yourself.


I am not blaming my experience because of the editing. My actions, decisions and attitude is the thing that went wrong in the first place. "There is a way that appears to be right, but in the end it leads to death." [Proverbs 14:12]
