Day 17: your idol and why you look up to them

Sherlock Holmes

Crush ko po yan. xD

He’s keen and observant – a gifted thinker who could shine a light through the darkness of mysteries with his intellect. He could tell you the story of your life from the marks on your shoes, the cut of your shirtsleeves. He’s eccentric; he smokes a lot, fasts for invariable periods of time, practices shooting things inside his rooms.

Yeah, he’s a really smart guy. But that’s not the only reason why I admire him.

I look up to him because he’s a gentleman. He “makes merry over the cleverness of women” but he’s chivalrous and gentle in dealing with them. Also, he stays true to his principles. He became a consulting detective because he wanted to, not because he was aiming for money or fame. He didn’t care what others thought of him; he minded his own business.

I want to be like that. Haha.

Eto pa pala yung iba, kasi nga makulit ako:

~Ludwig Van Beethoven, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. They were both astounding musicians. And what inspires me even more about them is that they defied odds – Beethoven having lost his hearing, Mozart having been a young musical prodigy.

~Vincent Van Gogh. There’s something about his works that touches me. I can’t tell exactly what it is, but I feel that each brushstroke was done with deep feeling. He showed us beauty, though life hadn’t been easy for him.

At sila pa! Sabi ko din idol ko sila...

~Marjory Infante – dati, inaamin ko, nainis ako sa kanya. Kasi nga naniwala ako sa sinasabi ng iba. Dahil dito sa taong ‘to, natuto akong tumingin sa parehong side ng mga arguments at mga kwento. Totoo siya, hindi siya plastic... kaya siguro nga, may mga nainis sa kanya. Pero saludo ako sa kanya. Talagang talaga.

~Hans Angelo – matalino na, masipag pa. Tapos mabait din, kahit na maraming pinagdaanan sa buhay. Hindi rin siya mayabang.

Odiba? Saan ka pa? Lol.

~deathstarhunter – Grammar Nazi, pilosopo, at isang taong may napakalawak na talasalitaan (talasalitaan, hahahaha, lalim!). Magaling siyang magsulat. Nahihiya nga akong bigla ‘pag nababasa ko yung trabaho niya eh. Hahaha.

~Makulit. Pagbigyan na si Andeng. Peace tayo.~
