<b>Hey, everyone! It's been a long time since I have posted something here at my blog. I think it's already almost a month.</b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Today, I'm posting that I made for our theater class. It is a poster of our play entitled "Mercy".</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<b> </b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The story is about a mentally challenged girl who is taken cared of by nuns in a convent. The girl's name is "Mercy"; thus, the title. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Mercy was a mentally challenged girl who was loved by almost everyone in the community. One day when she was outside the church, a guy came to her. He raped her and killed her. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The message of this play is who the real sane between them is. Is it Mercy who is literally mentally challenged or is it the guy who raped and killed the helpless girl?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The story is based on a real story.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Below is the poster I made for our play that was just performed earlier today. </div>

The picture used in the poster is taken by yours truly. The poster is edited also by me. Yeah, I'm still not good at photo editing. I tried my best. I'm sorry. ^^Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00436671688812279366noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5419138200822163749.post-14488207381149104542013-01-31T06:34:00.001-08:002013-01-31T06:34:25.554-08:00Do I deserveI am in need of inspiration. Suddenly, I thought of listening to praise songs while doing some school work. After searching for praise songs in youtube. A song that was written by a young 13 year old boy, suddenly popped out of my mind. I searched for it and listened to it. I hope you guys would listen to it too. I don't really have a audio file for it, but there's a video which I'm going to share here later as you read further.<br />
<br />
The first time I heard this song was at our school. The makers and cast of the movie "Agawan Base" were invited in our school to share their masterpiece. Here is the <a href="http://www.wagmuna.com/2011/agawan-base-an-inspirational-film/" target="_blank">synopsis and trailer</a>. It is a really great movie. It makes you realize how harsh the world is. However, despite the cold and cruel the world may be, God is always there. Nothing can win against our God. In this movie, Pippen Tan, the 13 year old boy <strike>(I think he's already 14, but I'm not sure)</strike> who sang and wrote the song, was one of the main cast. He was introduced after the movie with the rest of the cast who were able to come. He then sang this song.<br />
<br />
I don't really cry over songs, movies, books or etc. but when he sang this song, I got teary-eyed. I was trying not to cry. During the song, a lot of thoughts came into mind. Stuff like: <b><i>"Wow, he's so gifted." "Why can't I be as good as him?" "What have I been doing with my life?" "Why am I alive?"</i></b> I started questioning my existence, my purpose. I came to a point where I should be doing my mission in life. Whatever that may be I will find it. Unfortunately, I'm quite an inconsistent person. I forgot this realization. I hope I will be able to start well and continue.<br />
<br />
I hope everyone can feel the message of the song, feel the love of the song. There are lyrics in the video. You can can sing along. :) I hope you will enjoy the song as much as I did. <br />

Hello, everyone! I'm sorry that I haven't updated for a long while now. I just couldn't think of anything to post about. Fortunately, I was able to find some pictures I took at school the day AFTER I took the pictures in my "Do you smell something? I smell Christmas" post. So yeah. It gave me an idea. This one is just gonna be short, but first, check out the pictures I took. I just love how our school give effort in appreciating Christmas.</div>

Christmas is a time of giving and sharing. May we have the heart to continue to love, care, and share, not only to our loved ones but also those who are more unfortunate than us. <br />
<br />
The first thing that comes out in the minds of people when they hear the word "Christmas" is presents. Christmas isn't just that. Some people just tend to forget what the real essence of Christmas is. <br /><br />Christmas is the day when Christ is born. It is the day when we were given a Savior. A Savior that had saved us from sin by sacrificing Himself. We need to be reminded that without the birth of Jesus Christ, we wouldn't be living in this world right now.<br />
<br />
Advance greetings to you! Advance Merry Christmas! :) Don't forget to spread the love.Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00436671688812279366noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5419138200822163749.post-12731771507370921552012-12-08T11:04:00.002-08:002012-12-08T11:15:33.177-08:00Rurouni Kenshin "Samurai X" Live Action MovieAs we all know and for those who don't, <b>Rurouni Kenshin Live Film Adaptation</b> was premiered in the Philippines on the <b>5th until the 7th of December</b>.

I coul<span style="font-size: small;">d s<span style="font-size: small;">ee how hard the<span style="font-size: small;">y practiced just to <span style="font-size: small;">get the choreography right. Every<span style="font-size: small;">thing was in harmony<span style="font-size: small;">. The moves were so fl<span style="font-size: small;">uid and crispy. I can't really say<span style="font-size: small;"> that I'm an exp<span style="font-size: small;">ert in telling about how cripsy <span style="font-size: small;">an<span style="font-size: small;">d fluid the chore<span style="font-size: small;">ography was but that is how <span style="font-size: small;">I s<span style="font-size: small;">ee it.</span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></div>

Kudos to him. He totally<span style="font-size: small;"> got Kenshin's character. Not ju<span style="font-size: small;">st as Battosai but also<span style="font-size: small;"> Kenshin's cute side. I honestly found <span style="font-size: small;">him adorable! I wanted to kidnap him right there and then. <span style="font-size: small;">Un<span style="font-size: small;">fortunately<span style="font-size: small;">, I cou<span style="font-size: small;">ldn't bec<span style="font-size: small;">ause he w<span style="font-size: small;">as inside a movie while I was in a movie house.<span style="font-size: small;"> L<span style="font-size: small;">ife can be un<span style="font-size: small;">fair. LOL, <span style="font-size: small;">please i<span style="font-size: small;">gnore that little drama just now. Well, anyway, as I've said I love the cast for this movie. <span style="font-size: small;">From Kenshin<span style="font-size: small;"> to Sanosuke, to S<span style="font-size: small;">aito<span style="font-size: small;">, to<span style="font-size: small;"> <span style="font-size: small;">Yahiko. But I do have a bit of a problem. Well, not really a problem but a concern. The first time I saw Megumi<span style="font-size: small;">, I th<span style="font-size: small;">ought she was a character that I don't know of.</span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></div>

This is the best Japanese movie I have seen so far. It is also the best adaptation from an anime and manga I have ever seen. I would like to congratulate the whole production team of Rurouni Kenshin Live Film Adapatation. Kudos to each and every one of you. You have made a masterpiece.<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-size: small;"> The <span style="font-size: small;">production was also considerate enough<span style="font-size: small;"> that even though they are also targeting othe<span style="font-size: small;">r countries<span style="font-size: small;"> with this movie, that they put subtitles. <span style="font-size: small;">As a person<span style="font-size: small;"> who have watched a lot of anime, I <span style="font-size: small;">really don't want to watch on<span style="font-size: small;"> dub. I<span style="font-size: small;">t's because we can feel the actor<span style="font-size: small;">s real port<span style="font-size: small;">ray<span style="font-size: small;">al <span style="font-size: small;">of their characters. <span style="font-size: small;">Thank you aga<span style="font-size: small;">in for a wonderful job. <span style="font-size: small;">^^</span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span><br />
<br />
When I first saw the trailers, I knew the movie would be awesome. I just hoped that it wouldn't be like the usual adaptations where they actually change something from the manga or anime that would make me wonder "What on earth is going on?" So yeah, I totally love it!</div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
In fact, I have to say that even if you're not a fan or you haven't known Samurai X or Rurouni Kenshin at all, you can actually get the story with just this movie. It's because the movie is about Kenshin being an assassin became wanderer who wanted to protect the Japanese people from evil; however, his past still haunts him.<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-size: small;"> </span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span><br />

But this is something that I really want to show. I actually didn't mention it in this blog but I actually like making videos. I may not have the equipment and skills; however, whenever I get the chance to make one, I'd give my everything in that video. I put all the effort I could give. Although I'm pretty sure that the output wouldn't be as good as others, I'm still learning, so all is well. :))<br />
<br />
Okay, this is the latest video that I shot and edited. It's my friend's school group project. Her name is Trina by the way. She asked me, Sheena, and Chinky for help. Sheena helped out in the pre-production stage. Chinky was supposed to help in the production or the shooting stage but her schedule didn't permit her, so her camera represented her presence. Haha! Hey, Chinx!<br />
<br />
I know, I know. The outcome isn't so good. I can't really say that this is an excuse but we changed the concept at the very last minute --- during the shooting day itself. So yeah, I thought of just taking a few clips of my friend, Trina, and her group mates, and a few clips at an event we were going later that time. While editing the video, I then realized that it was not a good idea to insert the event clips. So yeah, I had to manage the clips, although it was really hard because I only took a few clips at the first venue. -shrugs- I even almost pulled an all-nighter for this. I'm glad I was able to have a two to four hours of sleep. <br />
<br />
As a side note, I'm glad that they like the video. That's all I wanted to know anyway. <br />

<br />
It was raining hard outside. You were sitting in front of your study
table using your laptop. You were surfing the net and chatting with a
friend. You sighed. You weren’t really the type to actually feel
depressed over nothing. But hey, the weather suited you just fine. You
might as well add the fact that you were alone in the house tonight. For
some weird reason, when you got home from a jog, all of your family
members were nowhere to be found. They left you a note that they would
be back tomorrow afternoon. It was definitely not helping your
situation.<br />
<br />
“<span style="text-decoration: underline;">I can already feel the distance.</span>” You typed as a reply to your friend.<br />
<br />
You dropped your head on your desk, forehead first.<br />
<br />
In all honesty, you weren’t really feeling depressed because of no
particular reason. Heck, you just didn’t want to admit it, but you
actually had not seen your boyfriend for almost two weeks and it was
bothering you. It might seem like a short amount of time but for you, it
felt like months. And the both of you barely kept in touch because of
your busy schedules. He was busy with his career while you with your
studies.<br />
<br />
You turned your head to the laptop’s direction to see what your friend
replied to you. You immediately sat up and stared at your laptop’s
screen as if it grew a head. <i>‘WHAT?!’</i><br />
<br />
You stared at the innocent text, hopefully thinking that it would change
into something else. But it seemed like no such miracle would happen.
You jumped out of your seat and hopped on your bed, rolling on the
latter.<br />
<br />
<a name='more'></a><br /><br />
“<span style="text-decoration: underline;">He’s on his way there, by the way.</span>” was your friend’s reply.<br />
<br />
You took a pillow and hugged it really tight. You went out of the bed, and replied to your friend.<br />
<br />
“<span style="text-decoration: underline;">Tell him not to.</span>”<br />
<br />
You walked to your bed again, this time, bringing the laptop with you.
It’s not like you didn’t want to see him. Heck, you had been thinking
about the moment you two would meet again for almost two weeks! But now,
you actually felt some distance between the both of you. You didn’t
know how to look at him.<br />
<br />
“<span style="text-decoration: underline;">Too late.</span>”<br />
<br />
You buried your face with the pillow in your hands. You didn’t know what
to do anymore. You didn’t have the guts to talk or message him as of
the moment. You groaned. You wished time would stop. You needed more
time to prepare yourself in meeting him once again, because you know it
was inevitable, he was going to come over. Tonight.<br />
<br />
Speaking of which, why was he even thinking of taking a visit at this
hour? It was already 8:18 in the evening, and he would probably arrive
at around 9. You groaned again in frustration<i>. “What the freaking hell?!”</i><br />
<br />
You read your friend’s reply again. She added “<span style="text-decoration: underline;">He left two hours ago. Oh, did I mention that he‘s bringing a cake he just baked? Okay, nevermind. Teehee~ :’></span>”<br />
<br />
Two hours?! What on earth was that guy doing?! Forty five minutes was
enough to get here. And did she just put there ‘cake’. You blushed. Now
you really wonder what your boyfriend was planning. There was no special
occasion going on today. So, what?<br />
<br />
You placed your right hand on your face. “Urgh... Damn you, Huang Zitao.” You uttered under your breath.<br />
<br />
The next few minutes, you were happily chatting with your friend but you
were talking about something else. You were trying to calm yourself by
forgetting that your boyfriend was coming over. Not long after, your
door bell rang. You felt a shiver run down your spine. You didn’t need
to look over your window to know who it was. You knew it was him.<br />
<br />
“<span style="text-decoration: underline;">He’s here!</span>” You told your friend. You pretty much forgot that it was still raining outside.<br />
<br />
“<span style="text-decoration: underline;">Good~ >:D</span>”<br />
<br />
“<span style="text-decoration: underline;">Come on! Help! I haven’t opened the door for him yet.</span>” You replied.<br />
<br />
You jumped in fright when you heard your phone, which was beside your
laptop, ring. You thought it was Tao but as you read the name of the
caller, you sighed in relief. You press a button and took the call.<br />
<br />
“And what are you planning to do, let him freeze outside to death?” You
were greeted with your friend’s sweet voice. She didn’t give you a
chance to actually talk first.<br />
<br />
“But I’m not ready to face him yet! “ You defended. You felt way too many emotions as of the moment.<br />
<br />
“But he’s gonna have a cold. He’s gonna shiver, then he’ll have to sleep
outside.” She cared for you and Tao, you knew that. She had always been
supporting you two, not just as a couple, but as her friends. She would
always tell you “It’s just a phase” whenever you think your
relationship with your boyfriend got dull. And this is one of those
times.<br />
<br />
There was silence. “F-fine!” You replied. You walked out of your room
and stopped in front of the front door. You stood there for a few
seconds, and sighed the huge feeling that were crowding on your chest.
After planning what you should say, you took the doorknob and opened the
door.<br />
<br />
And in front of you was your boyfriend, soaking wet. His gray deep
V-neck long sleeveless shirt that actually showed his non-existent
cleavage, his black not-so-tight pants, and black sneakers were soaked.
His right arm wrapped around a big teddy bear probably half your size,
while his left hand was holding a cake box.<br />
<br />
Your mind went blank. The words that you thought of before opening the
door just vanished in a snap of a finger. Now, you couldn’t say
anything.<br />
<br />
He smiled sweetly. “Hi.” He greeted. His soft voice lingered in your
ear. You missed it so much. It felt like you haven’t heard it for a
millennium.<br />
<br />
<i>“I’m losing it.”</i> And you mentally slapped yourself. You were
about to say “Hey” but you remembered that your boyfriend, just as his
clothes, was soaked by the rain. So you immediately pulled him inside
the house and told him to place whatever he brought in the kitchen.<br />
<br />
You went up to your room and Tao just followed.<br />
<br />
“Take a shower.” You said as you took your towel and threw it towards
Tao’s face. You went into your closet and searched for your boyfriend’s
clothes. Actually, this was not the first time your boyfriend came to
the house, soaking wet.<br />
<br />
After a while, you took out Tao’s change of clothes and handed it to him.<br />
<br />
“You’ll get a cold if you don’t hurry and take a shower.” You pushed him
inside the bathroom and closed the door. “Take your time, okay?” You
sighed and went back to your bed.<br />
<br />
“<span style="text-decoration: underline;">I don’t know what to do anymore.</span>”
You typed and sent it to your friend in the chat. The reason why you
told Tao to take his time in the shower was because you weren’t really
ready to talk to him.<br />
<br />
“<span style="text-decoration: underline;">Just go with the flow.</span>” was what your friend replied.<br />
<br />
You sighed. There was definitely nothing you can do in this situation
but to do what your friend said. She was right. You didn’t really need
to be paranoid about the situation you are in right now. You were
thinking too much. You continued replying to your friend’s messages
until you heard the bathroom door click.<br />
<br />
“<span style="text-decoration: underline;">He’s out.</span>” You entered, eyes glued on the screen.<br />
<br />
Tao came out, wearing the white V-neck shirt and blue shorts you gave
him, while wiping his hair with your towel. You pretended not to notice
him coming out of the bathroom, but you stole glances at him when he was
not looking.<br />
<br />
“<span style="text-decoration: underline;">I bet you’re staring right now.</span>”<br />
<br />
“<span style="text-decoration: underline;">... I’m not.</span>”<br />
<br />
“<span style="text-decoration: underline;">Oh really?</span>”<br />
<br />
“<span style="text-decoration: underline;">... Fine! Wet hair is nice.</span>”<br />
<br />
You put down your laptop when you saw Tao coming your way. You closed it
and went out of your bed. “Let’s go in the living room.” Not looking at
him, you said, as you passed him.<br />
<br />
You got into the living room and stopped right in front of the couch.
You turned around, expecting to see your boyfriend, but to your
surprise, there was no one behind you. You raised an eyebrow and went
back up to your room but he wasn’t there either. You scratched the back
of your head and decided to go down. As you were at the top of the
stairs, you held your breath.<br />
<br />
At the bottom of the stairs, your boyfriend stood, the big teddy bear on
one arm and a bouquet of roses on the other. He gave you a smile, the
one that would always make you melt. You didn’t notice but your lips
cracked a smile at that. He nodded his head, asking you to join him
downstairs.<br />
<br />
Your mind was blank. You couldn’t think of anything, but your feet led you down the stairs.<br />
<br />
You stood in front of him. He looked at you, still smiling. He moved the
bouquet in his arm and said, “For you.” His voice, soft as always.<br />
<br />
You chuckled and took the bouquet, “Thanks.” You looked at it in
admiration. Then you saw a card attached to it. You looked at Tao in
question. He only smiled, motioning for you to read it.<br />
<br />
<i>Just simple words may not express everything that I feel for you right now, but I’ll say it anyway. I missed you.</i><br />
<br />
Your heart started beating faster. He actually felt the same way. You
looked up to him, and he gave you a meaningful look. He handed you the
teddy bear, you took it, but you placed it on the ground. Tao’s eyes
widened with what you did. He probably thought that you didn’t want it.
He opened his mouth to say something but you stopped him by wrapping
your arms around his neck. You were too flushed. You were feeling way
too many emotions to actually say anything. You pulled him down a bit,
making Tao bend down a little, as you buried your face on his left
shoulder. You didn’t need the teddy bear. You had Tao in front of you.
He was all you need. It was him that you want to embrace and give all
your emotions in that one hug.<br />
<br />
You didn’t see it but Tao’s eyes actually widened. You could feel his
body stiff. But later, he smiled again and his body relaxed, hugging you
back.<br />
<br />
He was too sweet for you, but you didn’t hate it. Every little effort he
gave made you realize that you were still loved. How could you even
feel so down with not seeing him for almost two weeks? You stayed like
that for a while. And when you finally decided to let go, you whispered
to his ear. “I missed you too. I missed you way too much.”<br />
<br />
You let go and looked up to him. He was trying not to look at you by
looking at another direction. His face was beet red. You chuckled at how
cute he looked, and bent down to pick the teddy bear and the bouquet
off the floor. As you got up, Tao took the teddy bear from your grasp.
You looked at him, and you really couldn’t help but smile at his little
gesture. You held his free hand, leading the both of you in the living
room.<br />
<br />
You placed the bouquet on the coffee table before you eagerly sat on the
couch with Tao and the teddy bear in tow. You let go of Tao’s hand, not
noticing Tao frown as you did. You properly placed the bear between the
both of you. After positioning the bear, you looked at Tao again and
noticed him pouting at you.<br />
<br />
You raised an inquiring eyebrow. “What?”<br />
<br />
“You know, that hug back there wasn’t enough.” Again with his soft
voice. You actually laughed inwardly as you remembered how much softer
he talked compared to you. Sometimes you actually thought that you were
the guy in the relationship.<br />
<br />
“Well, you can hug this teddy if you need one.” You teased. You knew
what he meant. He wanted another hug. But you had thought that it’d be
fun teasing this big boy. “It’s kinda wet though.”<br />
<br />
He pouted again. He took the bear and embraced it tight. You laughed. This guy was just so adorable!<br />
<br />
“Oh yeah. I heard you brought a cake.” Tao loosened his embraced, and
took a glance at you. He smiled, and so did you. He let go of the bear
and intertwined your hand with his. You both stood up and went into the
kitchen.<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />
<b>------------------------------------------@~@---------------------------------------</b></div>
<br />
“Is it chocolate?” You eagerly asked, as you were waiting for Tao to pull the cake out of its container.<br />
<br />
He smirked at you. “The one and only.” He said, as he pulled out the cake out of the box.<br />
<br />
You stared at the cake and smirked. “Interesting visual we have here.”
You commented on the cake that was decorated as a head of a panda.<br />
<br />
Tao laughed at your comment. He took a knife, and as he was about the cut the cake you stopped him.<br />
<br />
“Let’s take a picture of it first.” You suggested. It would be such a
waste to actually cut the cake but it was food! You couldn’t NOT eat it!<br />
<br />
Tao laughed at you again. “Let’s take a picture of it with us then.” He
said, as he took his phone out of his pocket and pulled you by the waist
to him.<br />
<br />
You yelped at his sudden action, and looked up to him. He winked at you. <i>“What on earth did he just do?! He just winked, didn’t he?!”</i><br />
<br />
So Tao positioned his phone above you, him, and the cake. Thinking that
it would waste some space, you took the cake and put it just below your
face. He counted until three and took the picture. Tao seemed to
appreciate the photo, and smiled at it for a while before putting his
phone back in his pocket.<br />
<br />
As he turned his attention back to you, you already let yourself have a piece of cake.<br />
<br />
“What kind of chocolate cake is this?!” You blurted out after you took a
bit. Of course, the cake didn’t taste bad; in fact, it was delicious!
You just wanted to tease Tao, who, to no surprise, fell for your lie.<br />
<br />
His face fell. “Is it really that bad?” He asked softly, as he looked at his slice of cake in worry.<br />
<br />
You put your spoon down and pinched both of your boyfriend’s cheeks.
Then you pushed the sides of his lips upward. “I was just kidding. It’s
delicious I could die.” You said as you gave him a sincere smile.<br />
<br />
Tao gave you an ‘are-you-sure-you’re-not-kidding’ look.<br />
<br />
You laughed out loud. “I’m serious! It’s yummy.” You said, and took your
cake and spoon. You took a spoonful of your piece of cake and held it
in front of Tao. “Here. Taste it.” You told him, hoping that it’ll make
him feel better.<br />
<br />
Tao looked at you and then chuckled. He put his attention to the spoon
with a cake and then to you before opening his mouth and ate the cake.<br />
<br />
“See? I told you it’s delicious.” You said as he nodded. His smile was from ear to ear, probably happy at how good his cake was.<br />
<br />
The both of you talked the whole time you were eating the cake. You were
catching up on the times you both hadn’t seen each other. Even if you
both finished eating your slices of cake and took the utensils away, you
still continued on until you yawned. You looked at the clock on the
kitchen wall, and it showed that the time was already 12:32 past
midnight.<br />
<br />
“Wow. Time sure flies.” You said as you took your gaze away from the
clock and turned to Tao. “Let’s get some sleep.” You stood up from your
chair and stretched your stiff body.<br />
<br />
Tao nodded and smiled. “Sure.” He said as he stood up and stretched a
bit also. After that he took your hand and you both exited the kitchen.
You both locked the doors and windows, and turned off the lights. You
went to your room with Tao behind you, you yawned again. You turned
around, planning to say something to your boyfriend. But you ended up
realizing soft lips were pressed onto yours.<br />
<br />
After a good ol’ 3 seconds. Tao pulled away. Your eyes still wide in
surprised. “I want to cuddle you to sleep.” He said and smiled cutely.<br />
<br />
Your face softened. Damn. How could you even resist this guy? Well,
actually, you couldn’t. You could only chuckle. You both lay on the bed,
facing each other.<br />
<br />
Then you started feeling your eyelids getting heavier. “I’m glad you came tonight.”<br />
<br />
He smiled and touched your cheek. “I glad I came too.”<br />
<br />
You moved a bit closer to him. “Thank you.” You stared at him straight
in the eyes. Then you closed your eyes and pressed your lips against
his. You pulled away after a very few seconds, and moved back. “Good
night.” With that you were off to dreamland.<br />
<br />
Tao could only look at you and laughed at your actions. He moved closer
to you, as he wrapped his arm on your waist, and kissed your forehead.
“Good night.”<br />
<br />

Here is another post; however, it's not a short story, drabble nor write up. I'm showing you my first photo edit using Adobe Photoshop! But before I do that I'd like to say something first.<br />
<br />
<i>Belated Happy Birthday to the most awesome and most handsome creeper I know! <b>Park Chanyeol!</b> Saengil Chukahae!</i><br />
<br />
He just turned 21, international age, on November 27 this year. I was supposed to post this on his birthday but I didn't have the time to edit the picture. I'm sorry. ^^<br />
<br />
So here is my first photo edit.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiFkJ_ttanxFbwbcMmBvt3pkQI34o96Gnakjk6SkfnofHgTz3qRyWZ6-b6gRF9cmZ6YV42wvniUY6839MxAqiUfrFBHUHl2zy4FNmr5SQZmv7rWjTOsutRC6NVw3SFesqDGARxRZ5YebyY/s1600/90f53036c06b65ff.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="253" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiFkJ_ttanxFbwbcMmBvt3pkQI34o96Gnakjk6SkfnofHgTz3qRyWZ6-b6gRF9cmZ6YV42wvniUY6839MxAqiUfrFBHUHl2zy4FNmr5SQZmv7rWjTOsutRC6NVw3SFesqDGARxRZ5YebyY/s400/90f53036c06b65ff.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
Just a little trivia, he is a member of a newly-debuted Korean boyband called EXO.<br />
<br />
And so... the photo might not turn out the way I wanted it to be but I'm satisfied with the result. :) I was actually having a problem which font style to use. Anyway, because of this output, I actually wanted to learn more about photo editing. I have yet to find time for this week though. <br />
<br />
So what do you guys think about my edit? Might I remind you that I'm still a beginner at this, so yeah. <br />
<br />
Thanks for reading this post! Stay tuned for more posts. :) God bless. <br />
<br />

I made this on November 19 this year. <br /><br />Just a little trivia for this monster. This was made because Meg and I thought of making short stories within 15 minutes for old times sake since we used to do this kind of thing. The prompt was "Chocolate", thus the title of this baby --- <u>Just bought chocolate</u>. I finished this in 20 minutes and edited it in 10 minutes because Meg kept asking for extension. So yeah, she finished her short story in 30 minutes.</b><br />
<b><br /></b>
<b>Note: I changed the names of the characters from the original. And the picture used isn't really the chocolate that is being used.</b><br />
<br />
<b>Disclaimer: I do not own the picture used in this post. </b><br />
<b><br /></b>
<b>Anyway, have fun reading. :)</b><br />
<br />

<br />
“Why am I doing this again?” Trevor asked as he scratched the back of his
head, looking at the girl walking beside him.<br />
<br />
“I have no idea. Go ask yourself.” Adrienne answered the lad nonchalantly,
as she kept up her pace, walking ahead. “I already told you that I’ll be fine
by myself. Why won’t people believe me?” She added as she turned around, giving
him her bored stare.<br />
<br />
Trevor glared at Adrienne. “Oh shut up.” He said as he put his hands inside
his pockets.<br />
<br />
They were hanging out with their friends in the mall. While the rest
decided to take a time to rest for a bit, Adrienne decided to go somewhere. Trevor
could care less where the girl was going; unfortunately, their friends weren’t
giving him a slack. They forced him to go with her, telling him that the two of
them could finally get some alone time.<br />
<br />
Okay, Trevor liked Adrienne. So what? That didn’t mean they had to be all
lovey dovey, right? Because, come on, think about it. Adrienne, a girl who
could drive anyone away with her glare, paired up with him, a genius
delinquent. Well, he only looked like a delinquent. Anyway, “Adrienne + Trevor”
will never be equal to lovey dovey nor sweet.<br />
<br />
<br />
<a name='more'></a><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
He finally saw Adrienne stop, and went inside a shop. He followed her
inside, looking around. He could see all different kinds of sweet things there.
He grimaced. He wasn’t really fond of sweets much. A moment later, Adrienne
tapped on his shoulders. He turned around.<br />
<br />
“I’m done.” She raised a bag of the things she bought.<br />
<br />
He raised an eyebrow. “Okay.” He turned to where the door was and started
walking. “So what did you buy?”<br />
<br />
“Just chocolates.” She replied, looking through her bag of sweets.<br />
<br />
“Oh.” He looked back at where they were going.<br />
<br />
“Here.” He heard her say. He looked at her and found a poker-faced Adrienne
holding a box of chocolates to him. He stopped which made Adrienne stop on her
tracks too.<br />
<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://www.longbeachstuff.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/Chocolate-Festival-longbeach.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="http://www.longbeachstuff.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/Chocolate-Festival-longbeach.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
<br />
Adrienne put down her hand, nodded, and started walking once again. Had Trevor
taken the box out of her hand a second later, Adrienne would’ve taken back the
chocolates away from the lad. Good thing he hadn’t. Did she mention she would
hit the daylights out of him? Yeah, nevermind that though.<br />
<br />
Trevor didn’t notice but his lips curved into a smile. It was the first time
the girl he liked gave him something... well, sweet. His smile turned into a
sweet grin. He rubbed the back of his neck in embarrassment and bit his lip,
resisting his smile. He ran to her and finally matched Adrienne’s pace when he
caught up to her.<br />
<br />

I'm not really vain. I don't really take pictures of myself often. But when I do, the picture turns out to be blurry.<br />

<b> Hello, everyone! I'm back with a post today. :)</b><br />
<br />
This post isn't my written masterpiece or whatever. It's something that I actually thought of when I walked down the stairs of my school and happened to look out of the window. My eyes widened in<b> admiration</b> when I saw the trees outside being lit up with colorful circle lights.<br />
<br />

<br />
I'm sorry about the quality of the photos. I just took them using my phone. But I really have to show you how awesome it looked. Not like it's really beautiful in the picture but I guess you can imagine it, right? <br />

<br />
Well, anyway, when my friends and I finally turned for the last set of stairs to reach the main lobby. If my eyes widened in awe when I saw the lights on the trees outside, the thing on the main lobby blown my mind.<br />
<br />
<br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
<br />
Almost everything in the place was blue. There were <b>three Christmas trees behind a Belen</b><i> (a Christmas symbol representing the Nativity scene; depicts then infant Jesus Christ in the manger, Mother Mary, St. Joseph, the Three Kings, the shepherds and their animals)</i>. Even though there were a lot of people passing by the lobby because it was dismissal time for the most of us, I waited for the crowd to lessen and finally able to take a picture.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br /></div>
Upon seeing the Belen on the lobby, I was reminded that it is almost Christmas. And <b>Advent season</b> is almost here. Another indication that <b>Christ's birth </b>is near.<br />
<br />
Yeah, I know some of you are saying that it's kind of early to be celebrating Christmas. So, I decided to give a little information about <b>Christmas in the Philippines</b>. Just a little bit. This won't take long. :)<br />
<br />
We all know that Philippine's Christmas season is the <b>longest Christmas season in the world</b>. Am I right? If you don't know, then let me inform you a bit about Philippine's Christmas.<br />
<br />
Philippines is already in <b>Christmas Season</b> even before you can say <i>"Trick or Treat"</i>.Yes, it happens or starts <b>even before November</b>. The said season in the country starts at the same time as the<b> "BER"</b> months start.<i><b> September</b></i>. Would you look at that. The season ends at January too. So, let's count the months, shall we? 1, 2, 3, 4... Most likely, 4 or 5 months, yes? I know some of you may be baffled by it, but I'll save the discussion for my later posts. <br />
<br />
Well, I guess that's all I have to let you know for now. I'm glad you took your time reading this post (<strike>if you still are reading even up to this point</strike>). I really appreciate it. <b>Thank you and God bless! :)</b><br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Rai put down the book she was reading on her lap, as if
slapping the air in front of her, pouting. Why was she pouting? Well,
she was waiting for oh so good friend, Tatsumaru, who she was supposed
to meet up today. She was in a bookstore inside a mall, sitting on the
floor and reading the damn book she just aggressively slammed on her
lap. It had already been a good ol’ thirty minutes since the planned
time, and hell there was DEFINITELY NO TATSUMARU IN SIGHT. She sighed.
She stood up and started walking down the stairs, placing her hands
inside the front pockets of her jacket. Midway down the stairs there was
another path where a pastry-coffee shop stand and other books were
displayed. Rai took that path, smelling the scent of coffee and pastry
as she went inside.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
“I’ll take this.” Rai’s eyes popped
wide open when she heard a familiar voice. She turned around, and found
the guy she was waiting for minutes ago in front of the pasty-coffee
shop counter.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Tatsumaru happily took the bag of cookies he
just bought. He took a cookie out of the paper bag, and turned to Rai’s
location. “Oh. Hi, Rai!” He waved at her like a little kid, and took a
bite of his cookie.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i>‘What do you mean “Hi, Rai!”, you bastard?’</i> She stomped to the counter and stopped right in front of the taller teen, glaring at him.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The
lad blinked once with the cookie on his mouth, then twice. He took
another cookie from the paper bag with his free hand and handed it to
her. “Want some?” He smiled, not even thinking that he actually made the
lass wait for him.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Rai just stood there, glaring at him. A
few seconds passed, she clenched her teeth, and did what she didn’t
expect to do. Well, not really. She took the cookie in front of her and
took a bite on it. She turned around.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
“You’re late.” She said with her back facing Tatsumaru, skipping.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

It is a poem using the Cebuano language. This is my very first Balak. It was a homework for my Cebuano Journalism Class. I had fun making this. This was submitted on August 27 or 26, 2012. </b><br />
<b><br />By the way, I also put the English Translation of the poem. The translation is neither literal nor poetical though</b>.<br />
<b><br /><i>Duka</i> = Sleepiness/Drowsiness</b><br />
<br />
<b>------</b><br />
<br />
<br />
Bug-at na ang akong tabon-tabon.<br />
Misugod na og samok nako<br />
Ang duka nga permi mabati<br />
Sayo pa sa gabii<br />
<br />
Kon aduna ako’y buhatonon<br />
Lisod sugdon,<br />
Lisod humanon,<br />
Tungod sa duka nga nagsamok-samok.<br />
<br />
Grabe ang temptasyon<br />
Samot na nga naa ra sa dapit ang kutson.<br />
Kon ang kapoy mahinumdom,<br />
Ambot na lang unsa ang buhaton.<br />
<br />
Moundang ba ko sa akong gibuhat?<br />
Kun padayonon nalang?<br />
Mitan-aw ko sa orasan.<br />
Kadlawon na, sayo pa ko molakaw unya.<br />
<br />
Unsaon man ni nako?<br />
Gusto na nako matulog,<br />
Gusto na nako mohigda.<br />
Apan wala pa ko mahuman.<br />
<br />
Giandam na nako ang alarm clock<br />
Para duha ka oras gikan karon makamata.<br />
Mihigda nako sa akong higdaanan.<br />
Nagtanday og usa ka unlan.<br />
<br />
<a name='more'></a>Sa higdaanan ako miligid pa<br />
Hangtod komportable na ko sa akong paghigda.<br />
Hinay-hinay mipiyong ang akong mga mata<br />
Ug sa dihang nakatulog na ang dalaga.<br />
<br />
Napildi na usab sa duka.<br />
Sa akong pagmata<br />
Mitan-aw ko sa orasan.<br />
Oras sa klase hapit na.<br />
<br />
Dali-dali ko og bangon,<br />
Pagpangandam sa kaugalingon.<br />
Midagan padulong sa eskwelahan.<br />
Pag-abot sa classroom, nakaginghawa na.<br />
<br />
<br />
Milingkod ko sa akong lingkoranan<br />
Nagtanga, naghuna-huna.<br />
Hay, napildi na ‘sab ko sa akong duka.<br />
Daghan na ‘sab ko’g humanonon unya.<i><b> </b></i><br />
