THE MOST PRECISE GUIDELINE in feature writing is that “it is to write in one’s own style.” After all, a “good article” is just a matter of perception (provided that there are no grammar errors).
Al Chris’ version of a gay-girl dialogue
ONCE UPON A TIME, a girl fell in love for a gay lover who she thought she can actually transform to a real man. This is not a fairy tail but a true story in AUF and I actually know the characters.
I even heard rumors saying the gay guy already confessed everything to this girl, even his sexual preference; thus the girl already entrusted her heart to him. However, their “relationship” (it shouldn’t even be called like that) lasted only for a second just like a drinking glass shattered against a concrete wall. The girl’s heart was broken, sardonically speaking.
With that, I just formulated my own dialogue-story, which I hope will make all gay men ponder about what they are doing with girls....

Unlicensed
PASSING THROUGH THE DUSTY track to leave the gym premise, I amble as I stoop my head to avoid conversing from a far-flung aloofness. Then, few steps nearer to the old-aged table at the gate, I look up and flash my unfeigned boyish grin.
“Sige po Kuya, alis na po ako,” I say to the security guard of the RONGUI Building where my gym is located.
Then, I receive a feedback. “Sige, ingat,” says Kuya as he salutes with the eleemosynary expression on the planes of his face, which is weather-beaten as if he is bushed but keeps on living to earn his being. His grizzled hair is also thinning that it means he has long been aging.

Congratulations to Kristinne Anne Perez Felix!
I WAS APPREHENSIVE TO converse in public but I subjugated my fear, simulating as if the crowd was faceless, for the sake that I could impart something I conceal within…
In front of the raucous high school horde, I was a guest speaker for the second time this morning. (Last year, I was also the speaker for the same category.)
I hurriedly discussed feature writing because a speaker is supposed to finish in thirty minutes. I assiduously tried to thrash out all the things I want to say; however, I suppose I FAILED! (The time is not enough.)
Afterward, there was a mini workshop-slash-contest for the category, which I’ll be judging. The topic I gave was “The most beautiful person I ever saw” and it should be done in 15 minutes plus a 3-minute extension.
Then the results came…
So I would like to congratulate the writer who I declared as winner of the contest. She’s from Mary Help of Christians School. Below is her winning article.

If not because of me…
MOST PEOPLE DON'T UNDERGO the things I am going through. Most people don't do the things I do. Some of these "most" even have the nerve to scrutinize me when things aren't "too much" for them - they are not contented with "enough"...
Wearing jacket every day
THE TEMPERATURE DROPPED DOWN recently… It’s not alarming; it’s amusing!
I’ve been wearing jackets these past few days because the climate has been chilly. In Baguio City, it has been reported that the temperature dropped down to 7.5-degrees Celsius. In Pampanga, I don’t know exactly the temperature. I just suppose that it’s cold enough for me to stop perspiring even if I wear layers of clothing.

The first-ever kojic acid soap…
THIS SOAP IS THE first-ever kojic acid soap… No, no, no! I’m not saying it’s the first one ever manufactured in the history of the galaxy; it’s just that it’s the first-ever kojic acid soap I’ve sold in the time of my being....
Kojic acid soap is known for its pulchritudinous benefits to the skin. It can moisturize dry skin without having to clog your pores so it won’t turn your skin sebaceous. (The thought of "skin-moisturizing" is according to the unreliable label of a certain brand, which I am not selling.) It aids in skin exfoliation for skin renewal and removal of dead skin cells. Thus, it helps whiten your skin.
What’s infuriatingly iniquitous?
THERE ARE COUNTLESS THINGS that are infuriatingly iniquitous. One of them is when you make a clear deal with people who you’re actually helping to get something they want; yet they still don’t do their part in order to materialize it…
Are you one of them? If yes, then I tell you this:

The mare: Just a mistress (The truth about yesterday’s horses)
WE CROSSED THE FREEZING city of Angeles and arrived at the zero-degree savannah of Clark after taking photos of diverge views in an unknown park and window-shopping at the Oriental Mall while others fritter.
And then there we arrived…
The El Kabayo is a location in Clarkfield Pampanga where there are horses. (From the word itself, “kabayo” is the Filipino word for “horse”.) In here, we met two horse attendants who were wearing MP4 earphones hanging upon their ears.

Running with horses
HOW DOES IT FEEL to dash with horses like the ones in the photo? I suppose that would be very exasperating – just like yesterday…
Workloads yesterday were very exasperating too! (Running from the Accounting and Finance Office to the Multi Media Center and Publications’ Office just to request for a budget disbursement that has to be fixed sooner to defray a flight to Palawan, which has already been reserved and should be paid on the other day, and then climbing through the overpass just to traverse from one building – or campus – to another… and more, more, and more – a thousand “mores”!)

It came back…

MIRACULOUSLY, I FOUND MY dream-catcher, which I reported lost in my former article in this blog! The lesson learned:
Dark-brown monkeys shouldn’t speak English!
OFTENTIMES, WHEN OTHERS TRY cumbrously to converse English, they overlook the mirror. Why? Well, because their language doesn’t just jibe with their skin-color….
Mariah Carey once quoted that Regine Velasquez is a “monkey”. Regine is a Filipino, we all know that. Analogously speaking, Mariah juxtaposed a Filipino with a monkey.
