Could be because it's Christmas vacation already, but I'm still wide awake and energetic enough to continue with the other pending story. Remember the random Tagalog/Filipino news we watched during yesterday's midnight dinner? =^โโฉโ^= ฬเฟ*:โ๐ป ฬเฟ*:โ=^โโฉโ^=

Feels nice to express these at last hahaha. Sorry for the heavier examples at the end: wondering myself why I was so passionate about the discourse while typing, hence the personal questions. Also grammar correction: in 6/๐ฆ, it's *come, not "comes." XD

Last questions are personal, but it's true all the same. Again, careful not to get blinded by both experienced and perceived losses that you overlook and treat the real joys and blessings in life, regardless which forms they take, as the opposite. 10/๐ฆ

I guess it's why I feel strongly about this. Additional context: if life's all about loss, then I wouldn't have survived, recovered and healed from my attempt to take my own life when I was much younger due to excessive bullying and harassment, 'no? 9.3/๐ฆ

Questions I wanted to ask since the rampant "life is loss" perspective months ago (not being aggressive, I swear XD). I might be biased, because personally, if all there is to life's indeed darkness, suffering, etc. then I wouldn't be here now, 'no? 9.2/๐ฆ

How about the times you thought you couldn't make it, but now, here you are trying your best every day regardless of your self-defeating thoughts? Or on a wider perspective, how about the ongoing societal protests/movements you often see around you? 9.1/๐ฆ

Furthermore, apologies for saying this directly, but in such specific contexts... is it all about losing? Truly? How about your loved ones who, while also struggling in their daily lives/losses of their own, still stand by you to this day? 9/๐ฆ

Not aiming to fully change those with fixed viewpoints; just want to remind the need to heed balance every now and then. The lighter and brighter aspects of life, contrary to that usual discourse, DOES move you to learn, create and grow TOO. 8/๐ฆ

Isn't there a defense mechanism like that? Is it "rationalization"? I only know little about psychology, sorry. XD Anyway, it's natural, but also becomes detrimental in the long run when the fear + ways to avoid that fear are all you can perceive. 7/๐ฆ

You know, with viewpoints which honestly comes off as romanticizing/putting the concept of loss on a pedestal, sometimes I think these might NOT be from a place of so-called "Oh, I'm just being realistic/logical"...but from a place of FEAR instead. 6/๐ฆ

It's one thing to say that [living] life has its own share of losses, and quite another to agree/define that life is *ALL* about loss + and unquestioningly accept that losing is this "absolute truth" that completely runs and directs your life choices. 5/๐ฆ

Alright, back to continue previous threads! XD On the viewpoint of "life = all about/mostly losses, suffering, etc." I understand this well due to my past, yes, but isn't there equal meaning/significance in the positive sides and GAINS of life too? 4/๐ฆ

Might have to help out Mom a bit and proofread + edit documents and other school work she has so she can rest earlier tonight (this is their last week of teaching classes before vacation though, so yay :3). Will be back again later to continue! เธ

It's such a sight to behold: the official trailer(s), everyone's reactions (yes, even the hating ones because they were so shocked by Clive's appearance are amusing in their own way XD),etc. Once again, kudos to everyone for the FFXVIxTEKKEN8 team-up! 4/๐ฅ

What makes it more special for us is how he's not interested in fighting games much (which are my favorite), while I---on the other hand---don't really play RPGs (which are HIS favorite, sorry haha X). Yet, combining both in this collaboration... 3/๐ฅ

Still feeling nervous as I type this (I'm sorry X), but thank you for the friendship between game developers and staff from both franchises too, which heavily provided the opportunity for this amazing collaboration in the first place. Thank you. ๐โโ๏ธ 2/๐ฅ

Would also like to take the time to properly appreciate + thank everyone involved in the TEKKEN 8 x FINAL FANTASY XVI collaboration. Still feeling elated but at the same time self-conscious, so I apologize for being unable to express myself sooner. X) 1/๐ฅ

Some have also contributed to the ongoing donations for ๐, so I am sincerely grateful. In addition, book donations were also suggested to raise more funds for pro-๐ movements. No set plans yet however, so most likely, for next year. แจเธ

Oh, warmest holiday wishes as well to classmates from the educational center, who confirmed that many of them are also going back home to their own countries and spending time with their loved ones. Stay safe, and see you all next year. :D 3/๐ฉโ๐ซ
