In this blog I want to share to you about the choice that I made between My Emoji Story, Sketch It, and Acrostic Poem to stories that I've read and listened. I choose My Emoji Story for this blog, I hope you enjoy it \⁠(⁠ϋ⁠)⁠/⁠♩

The first story:

The Happy Prince is a book written by Oscar Wilde. It's an Oxford Graded Readers Book, the level is starter with 250 words and 37 pages. The genre is children's literature. The book is about a golden statue of a smiling prince with blue sapphire eyes and red ruby attached to his sword. He can easily saw a whole city and the activites from the people, but The Happy Prince can't help but crying when he saw people in the city are financially struggling. One day he met a little swallow, and he ask the swallow to deliver his sapphires, ruby and gold pieces in hope it can help the people in need.

This is the emoji that I've chose: The Crying Emoji. It best describes the story because it's just too sad and heartbreaking. The way The Happy Prince gave his valuables to help people in need is touching. Although it can be very detrimental to himself, but he still chose to give it all to the city people and give up to his happiness because he think their happiness is his happiness too. Also I'm very touched by the little swallow's sacrifice, he willing to give up to his previous plans just to make The Happy Prince's wishes come true by delivering things to city people.

The second story:

Soapy's Choice written by O Henry is a level A2 Elementary story with 1225 words. The length is 13 minutes and 3 seconds, the genre is comedy, slice of life, and the channel name is English Stories. The story is about a homeless poor man in New York named Soapy who wants to be in prison during the winter because he thinks the prison is such a warm place with a nice free food and good friends. Then he started to looking for a way to get him arrested by the police and enjoy his sentences in warm prison.

This emoji shows wide opened eyes to express shock while a hand is covering the mouth area. I think it's very suitable to describe my expression after listen to this story. I'm grinning and giggling for the entire story thinking that Soapy is such a silly man but my face is changing faster than Usain Bolt when I finally knew the ending. Who knows that it is so easy to be arrested by the police. Well, maybe with Soapy doing nothing is considered as a crime. Maybe with him being alive on earth is already a crime. What do you think?

So this is the end! ´⁠◔⁠‿⁠ゝ⁠◔⁠`⁠)

Thank you so much for sparing your time to read my scribble scrabble, I'm forever be grateful! (⁠っ⁠.⁠❛⁠ ⁠ᴗ⁠ ⁠❛⁠.⁠)⁠っ

The Perfect Song⁠♪

On this blog, I want to share about songs that perfectly fit to stories that I've read and listened.

Title : My Fair Lady

Author : Alan Jay Lerner

Grade : 3 Pre-Intermediate

Pages : 38 pages

Genre : Romance, classic

My Fair Lady told a story about a poor flower girl, Eliza, taught by a professor named Higgins who studies phonetics so that she can talk and act like a real lady. She was learning and studying day and night, and after mastering her language skills like a respectable lady, the professor invited her to meet the royalties and begin her new life.

Title : Line Without a Hook

Artist : Rick Montgomery

Released : 2016

Genres: Alternative/indie, pop

This is the song that I've chosen, and I think it represents My Fair Lady quite well. The vibe is just perfect in the scene when Professor Higgins missed Eliza and wanted her to be with him forever. There's a line in the song: 'Oh, baby, I am a wreck when I'm without you; I need you here to stay', and it really represents the professor's thought and feeling when Eliza left him with another man. Also, there's the line, 'I broke all my bones that day I found you crying at the lake. Was it something I said to make you feel like you're burden?', It's so related to the scene when Eliza is crying because Higgins always bullied her because of her thick London accent.

Title : Sprite Fright

Channel : Blender Studio

Length : 10:30

Genre : Comedy-horror, adventure, animation

The story is about a bunch of teenagers who went camping in the forest. They didn't care about nature and even did bad things like littering, urinating, and damaging wildlife there. After that, they found some tiny mushroom-gnome-like creatures, the Sprites. At night, they were trying to catch one of those creatures, but things turned out unexpectedly for them.

Title : Run Run!

Artist : Jorge Aguilar II

Released : 2015

Genre : Pop, hardcore

I think this song really matches the vibes with the short movie when they were getting chased and murdered by The Sprites. The song is quite gore, as the short movie was. It resembled the chaos when it happened. The lyrics also repeat 'run' on and on; it's the best words of a soundtrack when the characters are being chased by something scary and horrifying.

So, that was all! I really enjoyed both of the stories, it really unique in their own ways. I recommend you to read the book and watch the movie. (⁠≧⁠▽⁠≦⁠)

I hope you always have a great life to live on! I love you, bye. (⁠*⁠＾⁠3⁠＾⁠)⁠/⁠～⁠♡
