Letter 25 - Picture book + B-day 4/30

Picture book

  We did a picture book. Link in the video: Teddy Bear, Louis, Toby and Peter.
Watch it on my Facebook... cause I can't upload it here.


--------------------------------------------
Caution: Watch the video first, then read the words below while watching it again.
-----------------------------------------

And I'm gonna interpret the implications in the book. You can see the shadows represent the reality.
1. Tommy is a happy boy, because his parents lied to him, and he thought they love each others.(you can see his shadow smiling)
2. Next, you see a broken heart in the second page, it represents the fake love in their family.
3. You see the shadows of the toys was white, and they have eyes. They were the readers or the people who saw domestic violence in Tommy's family, they have eyes and they were watching the whole time. They were still innocent people here, so they were white.
4. The mother was bowing down to his father in the shadows. She was submitting to violence. And Tommy felt alone. The toys (other people) was still watching secretly.
5. His father broke his mother's heart and he was like a devil in their family.
6. Tommy had an empty heart. He felt lonely and a bit shocked, and it's like everything had freeze. (you see an empty room with no one inside, it represents the hollow soul in Tommy's heart)
7. Bruises on mom's arms reflect in the shadows, and Mom had an broken heart inside her body.
8. The toys are watching "again". Mom's heart were cured by the real love to his son.
9. His dad was like a monster.
10. His dad break everything in his family. (including happiness and love)
11. One day, his father left the house, he might be caught by a police or he might got divorced with his mom or he might had a fifth wheel or...
The shadows of the toys were black, because they represents the people who ignore this problem, and did nothing when they saw domestic violence. But they were happy to see the problems were solved.
12.  There's only him and his mom left in this family, and they experience the true love in a family together.(no one calls him Thomas again)

Guess whose voice was in the video.
It's Megan!
And the story and drawings were created by me and Allison.
The whimper sound was from Tiffany and she also did all the sound effect.
Do you like the story?

B-day 4/30

  Last time I forgot to mention my birthday. Sadly, that many people forgot my birthday, and haven't send me gifts (!?) (I sent them birthday gifts before, some said they will buy me gifts after the examination, but I really don't think they'll remember) But it's fine, because when I gave them gifts I don't really expect something back. But I still hate when my birthday was near the examination. I did have a cake, but... I am busy studying... so I ate it in a rush. 
it's from @Selena! Cute right? The only gift I received

my cake! chestnut-flavored
