-_-

Yeah. I better make this quick.

Here is the list of assignments. (Stephen, since you didn't sign up for anything, I'm assuming you go in the only remaining spot.) First one in each list is the editor.

News/Stories: Dave, Pat
Sports: Rham, Alessandro, Emman
Travel: Pardau, Bea
Entertainment: Gene, James, Gab, Jadee, Kirby, Jenine
Unusual experiences (I wish you luck, Jethro is your ed :P) : Jethro, Monchai, Joaqui, DJ
Hobbies: Alyssa, Stephen, Issa
Student problems: Javi, Leiko, Gillian, Andrei
Reviews: Marianne, Olin, Paul

Again, deadline for all articles are due on Tuesday, February 9. (Yes, the date I put is wrong, human mistake -_-) The article should have been edited by the editor at least once.

I repeat--all extra articles that you wish to submit should also follow the restrictions of the editor (deadlines, formatting, etc).

Everyone is required to submit at least one article. This includes the editors, bus man, art director (di naman problema kay Pia yan :-j), and me. :P

Comment below for questions, suggestions, and violent reactions.

Okay, our blog is flooded.

If I were standing right now, I would be falling.

This is a soft copy of what I will give y'all tomorrow. But this one has some difference, colored red.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE CLASS MAGAZINE

DO NOT LOSE THIS, KLFSHLALKF;L

Firstly, sign up for a slot in whatever category you want, as per Stephen’s suggestion. First come, first serve. Pick wisely. :O I'll be giving the sign-up sheets tomorrow.


News/stories – Dave

Somehow interesting but still informative. News features.


Sports – Rham

Well, duh.


Travel – Pardau

Intramuros trip. And you can throw in some of those Trinoma gimmicks. :P



Entertainment – Gene

Freedom-y. :D You may include the compilation of jokes I have in the Garnet multi.


Unusual experiences – Jethro

Pretty much the same as Entertainment, but it has to be uniquely Garnet. :D


Hobbies - Alyssa

Where we hang out during break, what do we do, what do many of us like and dislike… etc.


Student problems - Javi

I love this part. :)) Rant-all-you-want.


Letter to the editors – Mika

Don’t understand this one, but I assume no slots for this.


Books/Movie Reviews – Marianne

Obviously.


wisely


Write an article under your topic and pass it to your editors. Editors, you must edit and determine whether it should be remade completely or will be okay with grammar and spell check. All revisions must be with me by Tuesday, Feb. 10. This gives you ample time to write, edit, rewrite, and have one final edit.

I’ll give the final edits to Pia on Thursday, Feb. 12. And the rest will be discussed by Pia, Alyssa, and me.

NOTES

  • Follow what your editors say. (But Editors, don’t abuse.) If they give a format or give deadlines, follow.
  • Editors, be responsible. Make sure everyone submits on time and make sure you submit on time.
  • Keep a soft copy and a hard copy for every article you write. Layouting will be hard and will take long for Pia if she still has to type everything.
  • There is no specified length for the articles, but minimum should be roughly as long as THIS ENTRY > click! Sorry, okay, my head hurts too much to make another entry. The articles will be cropped and prolonged as the layout calls for.
  • If you want to pass extra articles for other portions, that's perfectly fine, just pass to the correct editor.
  • DO NOT FORGET TO PUT YOUR NAMES IN THE ARTICLES.


BEAR IN MIND. The articles in the magazine should reflect who Garnet is—like a many-faceted diamond (irony), it’s more beautiful if we show more sides. So, write the way you would talk (minus the swearwords and the side comments, maybe, such as this one). Make your personality, and Garnet’s, apparent in your writing—but please don’t sound so stupid.


Yay, go Garnet.

check the previous post first

So Pia has been asking for picture submissions...
And since I'm assistant editor for Reviews, I'm telling you all that Deadline is on Sunday (Feb 7, 2010) at 12PM because I still have to check all the reviews.
Now I'm taking Bianca's advice and I won't put any strict format rules... But if you're sending a soft copy to me ( rawr.imallama@yahoo.com ) then PLEASE save it as .doc or .docx or .odt and make sure the font is readable.
And do a little background check on the book/movie/whatever you're reviewing. This means: if you're reviewing a book, please tell us who the author is, and if it's a movie tell us who the director is. Kawawa naman yung mga direktor sa mundo, walang credit XD
Plus include genre and of course, your rating (3 stars? 4 stars? what?)
NO SPOILERS! that's a rule.
^^ If it's a movie, please include the names of some actors with major roles.
- I highly suggest you avoid reviewing well known books/movies/etc and try to introduce us to something new :) This isn't for cramming, so if you're gonna write a half-assed article then it's not gonna be included.
- Don't just say 'this book/movie/etc sucks. it's so crappy. i hate it.' because that doesn't help much. If you like/hate it, then TELL US WHY. What makes it good/bad?
^^ Guidelines lang yun.

As for length, sabi ni Bianca any length :)) But don't write a novel, maawa naman kayo.
