【silent vlog】when i just want to use my voice somehow...

I mean, we all have that desire, right? In our own ways, we wanted to be able to have the voice to convey what we truly feel. Even when, at times, having that kind of voice leads us to more pain and suffering. I only wanted to be able to help others in my own way. And maybe someday, I'd be able to find my own voice to truly deliver the words I wanted others to know. 

Beast Knights 7 - Meeting And Familiarity

CHAPTER 7 – Meeting And Familiarity

"Yuri-kun? Shori? Murata-kun, too?"

"Mari-san? Is that really you?" Yuri could only ask in disbelief and also because he had to make sure that what he was seeing in front of him at the moment was the truth.

That the identity of the cloaked warrior attacking them earlier was none other than Yuri's mentor on Earth and one of Shori's childhood friends, Akiyama Mari.

But the young woman's initial response was a burst of short laugh, as if relieved, followed by a wide smile that only confirmed Yuri's suspicion that the cloaked woman was indeed his mentor.

Hindi pa rin maintindihan ni Seiichi ang gustong ipunto ni Reiko sa kagustuhan nitong makita ang Treasure Room. Pero mukhang determinado talaga ito na mapasok ang lugar na iyon. Was it possible that his grandfather could have truly hidden the information that she needed to know?

Pero ayaw niyang bigyan ito ng false hope pagdating sa paghahanap. Maging siya ay maraming hindi maintindihan sa lahat ng mga bagay na naroon sa importanteng silid na iyon.

“Hindi ko masasabi kung meron kang posibleng makitang sagot sa Treasure Room. I was the one who actually turned that place into what it is today bago ako umalis papuntang New Zealand noon,” pagtatapat niya at saka siya huminga ng malalim.

“Then… your grandfather didn’t hide anything in there?”

Just So I Could Post Something

Yes... And I'm doing it after a long while of not doing so. It's 11:28 PM already and I haven't even written in my journal. But I think I can do that tomorrow -- if I would just recall the things I did today. My head's not functioning well right now. Or should I say, my brain.

Okay, that was a mistake on my choice of words. Sorry. 😅

Anyway, I still don't know what else to do with this blog, if I'm going to be honest. I still love writing and I also love writing my thoughts, especially those that I could never blurt out to anyone. Well, maybe not every thoughts since there are some that I would consider very private. So I still choose the topics that I'd like to talk about here.

Since I don't even post a lot in any of my SNS accounts that much, maybe I could pay attention to this. That's not even hard, right?

WRONG!

Now that it came to this, I was thinking for a while of going back to writing my book comments and series/movie reviews/thoughts. I could do a lot of them -- especially the series ones since I was able to watch an entire series lately. It's been A LONG WHILE since I last did that. I think the last one I did -- at least, writing a series review as a whole -- was when I wrote a review on "A Tale Of Thousand Stars". And the last review I did for a series in which I would write comments per episode would be about "Kishiryu Sentai Ryusoulger". And to think I've only written reviews for, maybe... 2-3 episodes? I still have to check since I'm writing here without checking my previous posts.

That's not a bad idea, right?

the last sky of the earth 104 - source of the scrolls pt. 1: hidden information

May ilang araw na ring hindi pinapatulog ng maraming isipin si Seiichi mula nang maalala niya ang tungkol sa mga sinabi ng kanyang ama at maging ni Hitoshi noon. The fact that, all this time, his best friend knew who he was and yet, still decided to hide it from him…

Hindi na siya sigurado kung ano ba ang dapat na maramdaman. For one, he did feel betrayed that Hitoshi had hidden the truth from him. Pero may palagay rin siya na hindi alam ni Kourin ang anumang nalalaman ng kapatid nito. Alam niyang masikreto talaga si Hitoshi kahit noong nabubuhay pa ito. Kaya hindi na siya magtataka kung sakaling malaman nga niya na walang alam ang sinumang malapit kay Hitoshi, maging si Shuji, tungkol sa mga inililihim ng Shinomiya clan prince sa lahat.

Isang buntong-hininga ang pinakawalan ni Seiichi bago tuluyang bumangon at umalis sa kamang kinahihigaan. Walang mangyayari sa kanya kung patuloy lang siyang walang gagawin sa lahat ng mga nalalaman niya.

Unti-unti nang bumabalik ang ilan sa nawawalang bahagi ng kanyang alaala. Iyon ang mahalaga sa mga sandaling iyon. Oo at marami pa siyang tanong. Pero kung magtitiyaga lang siya, sigurado siya na magpapakita rin ang mga sagot na kailangan niya.

【silent vlog】i've never become who i wanted to be...

Random thoughts placed on clips that I took ages ago while we were on an out of town trip to La Union. 😁✌️ But if I could convey more of my thoughts this way, maybe I should do this more often. And maybe... Just maybe... I could show myself more this way. But I guess it would be better if I convey my thoughts more using my own voice one day. I have to do a lot of practice to show up in front of the camera without feeling scared or cringey or even anxious about the whole thing.

Beast Knights 6 - Entering Esovia

CHAPTER 6 - Entering Esovia

It appeared that their calculation about the island's location was accurate. On the fourth day of their travel, they finally spotted the island that matched the description in Lady Yunsoo's journal and that of Conrad's. Of course, it was expected that the brown-haired soldier would surely had mixed feelings about all these. But then all they could see was a nonchalant expression.

As Murata described, it was a perfect cover-up for all the emotions surely lurking in Conrad at the moment as soon as they saw the island. The island looked ordinary, but even Gwendal and Wolfram could tell that it was lurking with mysterious powers. Perhaps that mysterious power was what had kept the island moving for the past 4 millenia.

Oo nga’t sa mismong bibig na ni Hayato nagmula ang sagot. Pero sa totoo lang, hindi pa rin magawang iproseso ng isip ni Kourin ang mga impormasyong narinig mula sa Shichi RaiRyuuKen master.

Mahaba pa ang gabi, kung ibabase na rin niya sa oras na nakita niya sa orasan sa dingding. 10:31 PM. May ilang oras pa bago maghating-gabi. Pero hindi na niya alam kung ilang impormasyon pa ang maririnig niya sa lalaki kapag nagpatuloy pa ang diskusyon nilang iyon.

“Well, that’s a lot of information to take in, if you ask me,” komento ni Shuji makalipas ang ilang sandaling pananahimik.

Laking-pasalamat na lang ni Kourin na nagawang putulin ni Shuji ang katahimikang nakapalibot sa kanilang tatlo roon. Mukhang hindi lang pala siya ang nahihirapang iproseso ang lahat ng mga nalaman nila.

Beast Knights 5 - The Journey To Esovia Begins

CHAPTER 5 - The Journey To Esovia Begins

It didn't take Yuri and the others that long to prepare for the trip to the island where the Kingdom of Esovia was located. In fact, during the whole two days of waiting for the trip to finally come, Yuri couldn't stay in one place for long because of anxiety and excitement merged together. He would constantly go to the library or borrow some of the archives from the Shinou Temple to learn more about the Beast Knights and the Esovian Mazoku.

Murata wasn't lying when he said that the information about those people were scarce. Yuri couldn't tell if it was just out of luck that the priestesses or even the Daikenja was able to obtain records with regards to the topic.

Isang buntong-hininga muna ang pinakawalan ni Kourin bago nag-angat ng tingin at ibinaling ang atensyon kay Hayato. Kitang-kita niya sa mga mata nito na gusto nitong malaman ang sagot sa tanong nito.

“Yes, I do know him. But if I’m going to be honest, nito ko lang tuluyang naintindihan ang tungkol sa pagkatao ng taong iyon.”

“Ano’ng ibig mong sabihin, Lady Kourin?”

Wala nang dahilan para itago pa ni Kourin ang mga nalalaman niya tungkol sa posibleng pagkakakilanlan ng Ethereal Sky. She blurted things out while looking at the wooden sculptures, anyway. Sigurado siya na maraming itatanong sa kanya ang dalawang shadow guardians niya pagkatapos ng gabing ito.
