A Tale of MacArthur*!

I tried. Believe me. And many people did. Why is it so hard for me... for us... to make you follow? You are such a hard-headed creature! Don't blame me if everyone dislikes you! It was you who gives out the creeps in us!

You keeps on coming back even if everyone is turning you away. I just can't believe your character! You are one great creature made with so little understanding. You just don't get it, do you?

Writing tips from "William Forrester"

It was last Saturday when I finally watched the movie "Finding Forrester" on TV5, a local channel here in the Philippines. I haven't watched the movie before that's why I'm so glad that TV5 had a very good selection of films. I love the movie because it gave some tips on writing, maybe because one of the characters was a writer himself.

Anyway, I watched the movie from the beginning, but unfortunately, I never finished the last ten minutes of it. I fell sleep on the sofa. Har har har. So, I had to ask my brother what happened at the end of the movie. But of course, I won't tell you because this is not a movie review for "Finding Forrester". Before the writing tips taken from the movie, here are some little information about the film.

"Finding Forrester" is the 2000 film about a teenager who befriends a reclusive writer, William Forrester, played by Sean Connery. William Forrester is a fictional character by the way. And that's it! And now for the writing tips from William Forrester himself.

A Facebook Balagtasan Face-Off!

A wall post on my facebook account written by a friend has resulted from a balagtasan face-off between me and my high school friends. It may sound so nosebleed but I really enjoyed having a balagtasan encounter with them.

For those who do not know, a balagtasan is the art of having an argument to people done as if reciting a poem that centers at a particular topic. The following is our facebook commenting/replying to my wall post, the balagtasan style (which by the way are written in Filipino language, so forgive me if you do not understand everything, thank you... =P):
