Our Films of Yesterday (L' Amour Series #1)

Prologue

I scrunched my face as soon as I woke up. I had a lot of things to do today at luckily, sinet ko na ang alarm ko for seventy-thirty. Tulog-mantika pa naman ako, and I'm used to being woken up by someone.

I checked my face on the mirror na nasa bed side table ko lang.

I sighed as I looked at myself. I didn't really look like one of my photos, I use makeup kaya not a lot of people see my bare face. I guess they'll find me hideous.

Well, it's better to be real in the internet, right? I wouldn't mind them bashing me for looking entirely different from my photos.

As long as my friends and loved ones know who I really am. Wala naman na akong pake sa mga sasabihin ulit nila sa 'kin sa twitter e.

People loved sticking their noses everywhere, lalo na't I'm an influencer, I had to be used to it already.

"Well, I should start filiming na." I groaned as I stood up from my bed and got my camera from the living room para i-set up sa tabi ng higaan ko.

"Shit, bahala na nga. I still have morning glories pa naman." I cursed on myself as I tried setting the camera kahit meron pa akong muta sa mata.

I touched my hair noticed it seriously needed a brush pero they wouldn't mind na ganto ako. Viewers these days prefer realness kaya bahala na't magmukha akong tanga.

I checked myself one last time on the mirror and made a disgusted look.

"Ang pangit ko nga talaga." I sighed and sat on my bed properly while facing the camera.

I pressed the capture button and immediately smiled in from of the camera as it started shooting.

"Goodmorning, SOULanes!" I started my intro and chuckled. "Yes, guys as you can read on the title of this video, I am going to film an 'A day in my life'." I raised my hands and acted all excited.

"Well, as you can see, I am entirely different from what I look like in my photos." I explained as I held the camera and showed my bare face.

Pakapalan nalang ng mukha 'to.

"It's reality. Makeup really does change the way we look but it isn't enough to cover our personalities and I'm proud to say I still am me, even when I look different." I stated a fact.

It is true people really wouldn't be able to cover up their personalities with makeup. It is just a mere cover up, it really doesn't define us as a person.

After explaining more about what I'll do today and my plans in front of the camera, I placed my camera in my reading table facing my bed and started fixing my bed.

Alam kong mukhang plastic ang ginagawa ko, pero I seriously can't start a day without fixing a proper working and living environment.
