ang aninag online,
It was under Media Center 1 2012 (MC12012) that a blog site was proposed as one of its projects. Soon enough, after 26 August 2011, the first ever publishing day, Ang Aninag Online has received positive feedback and interesting reviews about the online reading system. The website has grown leaps and bounds since.
But what goes on behind the links?
Every word and photo is read, sorted, edited, and approved by the UPIS Media Center Editorial Board, which consists of the writers, the editors, and the learning coordinators. These people do everything--from hunting news to encoding to promoting. They are the ones who keep alive the Media Center's heart, who keep the ink flowing from the heads of the writers to the minds of the readers.
This may seem like serious work but within the walls of the MC Headquarters, there resides memories which could not be forgotten. Each MC member could testify that not all compositions come from a sound, peaceful mind. Some literary entries resulted from disorganized thoughts, heartfelt emotions, or random, awkward moments. Even the simplest thought could be the source of light for even someone with writer’s block.
Being part of the MC staff does not start and end in one semester. Rather, it is a life-long experience. Until now, MC alumni still remember their most remarkable experiences during their term. Others still visit the UPIS building just to see the progress of the current MC or to simply say ‘hi’. They consider themselves as part of a fun and loving family, where they share a common ground with their fellow MC brothers and sisters.
MC encourages everyone, whether or not they are a staff member, to write about anything they want--love, friendship, school, heartbreak, religion, the random, even the mundane. Most published literary works are written anonymously and this stirs the curiosity of readers. Most of them wonder, even investigate, who wrote certain articles, why it was written, and, of course, to whom it is addressed. Almost always knowing the answers to these is but one of the perks of being part of MC.
It has also been an MC tradition to publish a Creative Writing project every semester. Starting from Isang Araw by MC 1 2012 to Cannot Be Reached by MC 1 2015, these stories are much-awaited literary entries divided into chapters about the life of ordinary UPIS students.
At least once a year, Ang Aninag Online also transforms into Di Ma-Aninag Online, the school paper's spoof edition which was the brainchild of MC 2013.
As a whole, the Media Center functions as a system. Without one piece, it cannot work effectively and efficiently. This work program has not only brought UPIS students from around the web and the world together, but it also nurtured bonds that could be cherished forever. Year after year, these bonds form a longer and stronger chain--one that binds the minds of readers to think, create, and share their ideas.
For the past years the Media Center has greatly served its purpose. We share this milestone with you, our dear readers. Together, let us look forward to more creative works and publishing days. On to the next one! / by Christine Bailon
