Blank Space An artist sitting inside a big beautiful cottage full of art Where everything was neatly placed Not a single dust could be found Wearing an outfit made by the Gods, She used a yellow pencil to draw her life The pencil’s tip became flat as the artist started using it Always wanting it to be as sharp as possible while drawing, so No mistakes could be made, She sharpened it again and again until it was sharpened perfectly. Smiled for a moment, but as she started drawing, the tip went flat again Annoyed that the pencil couldn’t stay sharp forever, She did the same thing again and again until she almost finished drawing. When she was at her last stroke, She looked at the pencil, but there was nothing left. The desire for sharpness worn it out. She ended up with an unfinished canvas.

Is The Short Story “Disguise” Ishi Approved?
If you are searching for a story to read, I truly recommend the short story “Disguise”, especially if you are a Filipino. This truly won’t let you down. From its entertaining aspect to its interesting aspect, I certainly would give it a perfect score. Not to mention the scenes and characters that reveal some real life events and people. After reading the story, I knew that I had to make a review out of this, so let me first talk about its synopsis. The story starts with a mayor who wants to catch the criminals who are targeting taxi drivers, so he decides to disguise himself as one. Now, let us talk about the characters.

The author purposely showed how the people adored him and how war...

On the first day of my last year in high school, I encountered an unfamiliar subject called philosophy. I was afraid that I would fail this subject because I really did not know what this subject was and what its purpose was; however, after searching on the internet and listening to the discussions of my teacher, I now understand and know what philosophy actually is. You must be wondering what philosophy means, so here it is. philosophy, starting from the word itself, is defined as “love of wisdom”. That is its literal meaning because the word philosophy is derived from two Greek words, philo, which means “to love”, and sophia, which means “wisdom”. In addition, do not forget that the goal of philosophy is still to attain wisdom. To further help you understand what philosophy is, according to Brown University, philosophy is the critical study ...
