"...a journey of a lifetime embarks a remarkable lesson..."
...and cut!Apollinaris,not so familiar right? I have to confess, Apollinaris is a brand name of a bottled water in Germany. Last week, our English professor told us to bring magazines, pens, etc. for we were going to make a story out of the magazines we have. We will just have to choose five pictures , and one sentence for each photo and that's it! It was so hard to make a story with only five sentences.And use the present and future tense. A group work-and I was with Joilene,Florie and Patrick. Thank God, Joilene has lots of magazines, only that they were in German. We were just cutting pictures and Patrick mentioned Finding Nemo, at that moment, Florie was pointing on the bottled water with the name Apollinaris and thought that it was a nice name. Together, we come up with the title "FINDING APOLLINARIS". I wrote the storyline and it's not so good since I'm working under time pressure and it usually ends up into a not so beautiful plot. Anyway, the picture above is the front page of our work. It's folded and the pictures are inside.Just like this:
so this is the story:
(i took this when we were climbing the mountain in Maasin)
so this is the story:
As the sun sets in the city, Apollinaris, a prominent Engineer is about to start his journey in searching for his real identity and discern the real essence of life for his heart feels so lost abd incomplete.
His mind becomes a battlefield between opposing decisions whenever he is torn between choices, but because of his great passion in learning life's precious lessons, he goes on, not knowing where his feet will lead him.
Beyond the woods in the mountain, he sees and talks with a native tribe who shows him that their life is difficult for they have to suffer and take the risks in order to attain what they need, and he realize how he always takes for granted all the blessings and bounty that he recieve.
He reaches places he never thought he would and he thinks that he wants to travel more because through this journey, he comes to know his self better, until the prairie and flowers welcome him as he sees a little girl picking flowers to make her mother happy, finally he decides to go home for he too has a family who will only be happy when he returns.

He(Apollinaris) goes back to the place he calls his comfort zone and learns that in the road of life, there are twists and turns, but in order to handle those obstacles, one has to know the real person within.
