by: Peter I took this photo while we were driving to a mall to get some stuff we need for the incoming New Year. I was saddened by the fact that the year is going to end again and there so many memories and people I will be leaving in this closing path. There are many great memories I made this year to...

by: Pamela Smiling is one of the usual thing a person can do but having it genuinely is a special thing for everyone. As an optimistic person like I usually am, I don't want to be affected to things that could affect my life negatively. August of 2018, a start of a wonderful and an amazing year and it all because of a...

by: Angelo Bawat isang taong naninirahan dito sa ating mundong ginagalawan ay mayroong bagay, tao, o pangyayaring inaasam niyang mapunta sa kanyang mga palad. Lahat tayo ay mayroong pangarap. Maaaring ito ay isang propesyon sa akademiya gaya ng pagiging doktor at guro. Maaari ring isa itong pakiramdam gaya ng pagiging masaya sa buhay at sa pamilya. Ang ating mga pangarap ay nasa iba’t...
by: Jen Bumungad sakin ang malamig at nakakatamad na umaga noong Desiyembre 31, 2018. Ilang oras nalang pala ay magpapalit na ang taon. Sadyang napakabilis ng oras na tipong hindi natin namamalayan na may papasok nanamang bagong taon, bagong pag-asa at bagong pagsubok. Hindi magkandaugaga ang mga tao sa bahay dahil sa dami ng kailangan nilang lutuin, bakas narin sa mga mukha ang...




by: Louis To me, vacations are meant for relaxation; a break from all the problems and tasks piling up at the back of my mind. They’re a break from school, from people, and from the same old, boring daily routine I’m stuck in. A chance to stop pretending to be someone else and let loose. To me, freeing...
by: Laurice If everyone has the opportunity to be payed for doing what they like, it will probably be a heavenly place. One might choose to be payed for playing video games for hours, staring at a screen holding a game controller and having the time of their lives. One could choose the job of sleeping for hours and be payed for it....
You knock louder and louder on the door, but nobody answers
By TINTA HUMSS 12 - January 01, 2019
It’s almost 3 o’clock in the early morning and my weary eyes are still open wide blankly staring at the empty ceiling. There is only silence around me, but this loud noise in my head is keeping me awake and disturb. Morbid thoughts continuously ravage my mind and I can’t seem to stop it. It feels like there is an endless war...
It's quite early in the morning as I prepare myself for the even I've been meaning to go to. It was my first gaming convention that I attended and the experience is just memorable. A gaming convention is an event where different gaming companies and gamers from around the country gather to make an amazing event full of challenges, online games,...
by: Jireh What if the absence of light comes for a new beginning? What if the start of everyday has come to an end? I wonder if the sun could meet the moon. How fascinating it would be to combine sunsets and moonlight to form a new beauty that can be seen up in the sky. But it seems to be destined in...
by: Elizabeth Friendship goes beyond just sharing time together, and it is long lasting . who you value above other friends in your life, someone you have fun with, someone you trust and someone in whom you confide . The first person you call when you get good news or want to your deepest feelings inside. You will have disagreements, you will want...
About two months ago, I first heard of a film adaptation of a book entitled “The Darkest Minds,” and it starred one of my favorite actresses, Amandla Stenberg. Of course, I had to watch its trailer, and it immediately caught my interest. What really hooked me, however, is the compelling concept and plotline. The characters, specifically the teenagers, had superpowers, and they were classified into a social stratification based on the danger level of their ability. It definitely fit into my interests when it came to sci-fi plotlines, which is why, without doubt, it quickly became my most-awaited sci-fi film.
Last week, I finally had the chance to watch the film, and all I could say is that I wish I knew then what I know now. Since it was my most-awaited film, my expectations were undeniably quite high. Perhaps they were too high. So there I was, seated in front of our television, ready to be wowed by the movie. The opening came, and I was all ears. It was an exciting and action-packed start – the backstory and the mood were established well, but then when the action died down, so did my interest. The rest of the movie was a mess; the transition from one scene to another was awkwardly done, the pacing slowed down to the point where I started losing track of where the film was headed, and it just became too cheesy and romantic. The soundtrack was so out of place that I almost thought I was watching a chick flick instead of a thriller sci-fi film.
Overall, the film had a promising plotline but a disappointing narration. It lacked a lot of things in different aspects, mostly with the way it was written. For a film that I considered as worth anticipating, The Darkest Minds was a total letdown. It had a lot of potential but failed to reach it. If I knew then what I know now, then I would’ve just read the book instead.
by: Francis Just like a beautiful flower she blooms like one. Just like a beautiful flower she is adored by many. Just like a beautiful flower she makes me smile. It only just takes a glimpse of her face to make me smile. An episode of her beauty. A peek of her grandiose. In that view, she fills my heart with love and...
by: Genesis Ilang upuan na lamang ang hindi pa nauukupa. Pasado alas tres na rin ng hapon at walang dag-im sa alapaap. Tanging iba't ibang mukha lamang ang nasagi ng aking paningin. Tinunton ko ang pinakadulong upuan sa bandang kaliwa. Tahimik. Pagod ang paligid sa maghapong pakikipaglaro sa oras. Dito ko natutunan ang halaga ng bawat nalalabing oras. May oras para...
by: Pamela Last summer, May of 2018 I had visited my grandparents' place in Mindoro Occidental. It was a fun experience until I visited them again when I finally had my semestral break from school for a week on the last week of October. A week full of laughter, adventures, and trying out foods that are new to my taste. My grandparents own...
