A writer. A weird stranger. A lot of little conversations. An online understanding. Every night. 23:11.

A (not-so) hopeless romantic writer. A weird (not-so-much of a) stranger. A lot of (denying) feelings in between. A (continuation of the online) connection that ends on 11 / 23.

The S #1 Hindi ako santa. I'm not nice on a daily basis. I've done things that conservatives and prudes will frown upon. I've got vices and guilty pleasures. I've done things that good and obedient students wouldn't. I've done the worse thing that you could do to a friend. Yeah, people will say I'm bad, but I don't care though. I'm every bad thing... And he's the complete opposite of me. He's an achiever, he's nice and patient, he's prim and proper, he's all things that are good. Me? I'm bad for him. I will only drag him down. That's what they say.... But will I care this time, though?

LEGACY 2 It is the greatest challenge to anybody, to be seen as who they really are, without the protection of the lies and the pretentions they have. They say that beauty is more than meets the eye. The true definition of beauty is kindness and courage. Si Bullet na yata ang pinakamabait at pinakamatapang na taong makikilala mo. But aside from those two traits, she's more than that. She's more than the girl who smiles despite the pain in her past, despite the clutches of her evil step mother. She believes that someday, she will find her salvation. Someone will save her from the pain of pretending and lying. Someday, she will meet her prince. She believed in Prince Charming, but she also believes in the magic of action. So when her Prince did not come along, she went to his palace and got him. And got him she did. But the Prince's love, just like the fairy godmother's magic, fades when the clock strikes twelve.

Wild, young and free... Madalas kapag sa murang edad nagsisimula ang isang relasyon, hindi gaanong siniseryoso ang mga bagay-bagay; Rash decisions, immature mindset, juvenile beliefs...but one man excluded himself among those who believe in the theories of young love. He doesn't believe in the ideals. He believes with his heart. Magagawa pa rin kaya niyang ibukod ang sarili hanggang wakas? There are some hearts who would never take their first heartbreak too lightly. Ang iba ay ginagawa pa itong pundasyon sa pagkakaroon ng baluktot na paniniwala sa relasyon at pag-ibig. Some guaranteed detestation from their erstwhile love. Just like how he bled himself dry. Everything was used to be so perfect for Dean Cornelius Ortigoza. From an up and coming rock and roll career to supportive significant others...sa murang edad ay kulang na lang at lalagpasan na niya ang mga pangarap. Mga pangarap nila. One more step to get ahold of his dreams. All in just one single reach. Just one more...until a requisition of vow became a misstep that took a three hundred and sixty degree turn. Inside out. Hearts are breaking. Promises undone. A heart turned cold. The day he became ruthless.

LEGACY 1 They say that when you wish for something so hard, it will come true. If you really wanted something to happen, then you will just have to work for it. Wish and work. These two can make miracles. But then Chantal already did everything just to make him see her, really see her. Pero sadya yatang malupit ang tadhana. Dahil kahit anong gawin niya ay hindi pa rin siya magawang mahalin. Because he is blind to see her love. So she will just wish again, under the seven stars.

We understand how dangerous a mask can be, we become what we pretend to be. The mask becomes our own skin, until we are consumed by the lies and the pretendings. But I guess it can't be helped. No one will love you unless you wear a mask on. No one will accept you unless you become the person they wanted you to be. No one will love you for who you are. No one will look at you without your mask. No one. Not even one. However, love.. the most powerful thing in the world, is the only one who can reveal the face behind the mask. Love is the only way to be freed. Love is the only acceptance you can get. Too bad I don't believe in love. And I would rather forever wear a mask.
