The Odyssey of Hiro the Claw Crane Rodent

Season 1 Episode 1

Previously on Ody Hiro:

Our hero (that's me!), was accidentally able to win a prize in a claw crane booth at Timezone located somewhere in the Philippine Archipelago. To make this a little bit shorter, there came Hiro, the Claw Crane Rodent - the new blognovela-star-wannabe.


One rainy afternoon, our not-so popular hero, Hiro, while passing by the Ateneo de Manila University (ADMU).

Uhm... he's just passing by... to be continued... :]

The Odyssey of Hiro the Claw Crane Rodent



 
 One "usual and normal" Thursday afternoon, I was at the most enjoyable place in the mall --- Timezone --- *sparkling eyes* and I was playing the claw crane, as expected, the claw was just as a cheater as it could be, but unexpectedly, something went wrong...and the crane got to grab one toy out of the machine! And so, viola! Here comes Hiro, the Claw Crane Rodent.

I was so excited, so excited that I just immediately put him inside my bag! Lol. Then I thought of making him a blog-novela wannabe star.
I would like to intro to you guys, Hiro!  And let his escapade begin ---- until I get tired I guess. lol.

Kids Are fun!

T'was a Thursday afternoon, I was inside Timezone, my most-liked place inside any mall. I was killing some time before I get to be accepted to drive on the road again (because of color coding) playing some games - Cranes, Arcades, Basketball shoot-outs and all that. While just taking a few minutes rest, I saw this bunch of school kids (guessing they're all Grade 4-5 students) playing with one card, every single swipe, all of them play. T'was fun seeing lil kids play and argue who's gonna shoot next or who's gonna try after the other, then thought of giving em an early Christmas gift: A FREE GAME FOR ALL!

So, I gave myself freedom to approach all of them and asked if they all wanna play the basketball shootout... and if I just had an opportunity to take those Kodak moments - the glistening eyes and the smile on their faces while shouting: "Yes please! Thank you! Yes we want to!" The genuine joy that we can only see in lil kids... --- I think this is one of the reasons why, it was said in the bible: "Come to me like little children..."

It's funny how those smiles and glee made a stressful day out of me and replaced it with laughter and happiness.

Yea, I wasn't able to take a shot of those "slow-mo" scenes but I took my liberty of taking a picture of them while already playing. Just wanna share the photos:
