Wazzup Pilipinas Original Short Stories Series: Deceiving Devereaux

Wazzup Pilipinas!

‘“You ruined my personality! You helped build me but also caused my downfall! You should’ve stood up to Hector when he prank me at Valentines Day, instead you laughed with that no good Ms. Richy Rich who planned to do that. Tara was never good for you. I wasted my love for you, you moron!” I am now teary eyed, this is now or never. I must do what I must do. I aimed at Anthony’s temple.

“Everything went according to plan, or it should be. I was supposed to feel victorious but all of a sudden my conscience is killing me. I took a deep breath as I hoped and prayed that the Dear God above may bless my soul for whatever outcome I may yield in my harvest.”

More of these sensational lines included in our short story for the day. I would like to think I started a great series here of short stories that I'm thinking of making it a permanent thingy in my blog. Yeah! "thingy" to sound a bit informal as the short stories can be a mixture of serious thrilling escapades or some humorous adventure ala tele-serye or slapstick style of writing. Maybe I should make it interactive and allow the contributors to freely publish them on their own and call it Wazz Pad...Lol!

Please read on and enjoy.

Wazzup Pilipinas Original Short Stories Series: Lost in Darkness

Wazzup Pilipinas!

Everything that is opposite is complementary. One cannot exist without the other. Balance is the maintenance of good to control evil to avoid it being too much or too less.

People often make illusions to themselves either by pretending to be another person or believing to be what other people told them what he or she is. You must believe in yourself in order to avoid this illusion.

The greatest illusion is being divided. We must remember that we are all one and connected. No matter how many countries there are or different groups of people present, we are all humans. No matter how many species of animals or plants there are, we are all living things. We live in the same universe created by God, therefore we are a part of the same whole.

Success can only be achieved through many failures. Facing your fears could help improve yourself.

Below is our short story for the day. Read with delight.

Proactiv is Still the Superior Anti-Acne for Our Family

Wazzup Pilipinas!

If it weren't for Proactiv, my 15 year-old daughter could be suffering with a lot more worst pimple problems especially those that seem to occupy more the areas around the forehead portion of her face. I guess it's not really possible to be totally pimple-free as that would be peculiar for a teenager at her age. Besides, let her become a be a bit burdened with the troubles of teenage hormonal imbalance so that she would be able to share her experience with her kids when the time comes she becomes a parent.

The Proactiv Solution 3-Step System is the best choice when it comes to preventing acne breakouts and blemishes. There is no other product or combination of medicines out there that has the same performance. I would actually wish it was available accessible for me in the past during my teenage years so I could have taken advantage of its superior formula to help in preventing a chaotic pimple breakout in my face.

Proactiv treats acne safely and effectively by attacking it at the source where a build-up of dead skin cells and bacteria clogs your pores  making it the most effective pimple fighter solution.  It gently cleans and unplugs your pores and kills acne causing bacteria since it is mild enough for everyday use. The  penetrates deep into your skin to destroy the bacteria and help reduce inflammation and heals the lesion. Your skin clears without the drying, peeling or chemical smell you may find in other products.
