the alleged public relations day

note: this is a back-dated post.

a fun take on what’s pr about

themediaslut has declared 9 april to be the day to highlight and celebrate the work that pr professionals do.

there’s no particular cause or reason behind this movement. it’s just a fun thing to do.

let’s see how long or how many people will it take to get this off the ground – if ever.

i’m plugging this purely because i’m in the said field as well and since more than 95% of my friends do not know what being in public relations entails, it will be a good opportunity to educate the general public on what the pr profession is really about.

i said, if this ever takes off, okay?

meanwhile, happy public relations day to all!

mis-judgement

as a rule of thumb, i tend to trust someone until proven otherwise because i believe that people should give others the benefit of the doubt.

recently, i have a friend who has put this belief to the test – time and time again.

right now, i’m thinking of how i should handle this in the best way possible.

i’m starting to realize that i might really just be a lousy judge of character…even after being around for 25 years.

naivety or stupidity?

it’s a bloody fine line..

p/s: in other news, man utd has just ended arsenal’s dreams with their 2-1 win at home. as much as i don’t want to admit it, i have to say that man utd’s second goal was truly impressive.
