@MyDearWriter ~ Scenes of @DavidArchie We’d Love to See
Posted by djafan on Friday, January 27, 2012
Submitted by PaulaFOD
@MyDearWriter, the writer of the movie Nandito Ako, has had some interesting tweets lately. We’re getting hints…sort of…that keep us guessing what Josh (aka David) will do in the movie. So it got me thinking…if I was the writer, what kind of scene would I write for David?
There would be close-ups, lots of close-ups, and that look…..you know that look he gave the girl at the end of the Crush video? THAT look..yeah, the smiling, flirty, the “I can see into your soul” look. Hmmm…what else? He would sing (of course he would sing!) something soft and sweet to the leading lady. He’s the hero, the guy that sweeps the girl off her feet with his charm, his honor and integrity, and his smile. So, maybe it would go like this:
The sky is overcast (great lighting for those lovely hazel eyes). David is walking toward a street corner in the city, singing “My Kind of Perfect”…the leading lady is walking toward the same street corner from the opposite direction. “is she the one, is it today, will I turn the corner, see my future in a beautiful face?” As they each round the corner, they nearly run into each other. They stop, David apologizes. She smiles, he smiles…they say goodbye, walk past each other around the corner. David is singing again; they both stop, turn around, walking to the street corner again….each hoping to sneak a glimpse of the other. They peek around the corner at the same time…face to face…David is singing “maybeeeee”….ah, I love happy endings!
So, what kind of scene would you write for David?

And I’d still like to see David on horseback with jasmine seated behind him holding on, riding into the sunset on the sand along a deserted beach. Ahhh … romantic scene. ♥
Or … the two of them on a scooter!! With her seated behind him holding on. Her hair flying in the wind. You just know he’d be laughing and having a ball! That would be a fun scene! 🙂
Abrra,
haha MyDearWriter is going to kill us all off with those mysterious tweets. But you know what they say … curiosity killed the cat, but satisfaction brought him back. Can’t wait to see this show!!
And I have to say that I wasn’t a fan of the hairdo, but I think it does add a touch of mystery to his look in the photos in #1 & #3.
And I’m with Ram, is the guy in 4 the same on as in numbers 1 & 3? haha It’s good to see them having such fun.. 😀

My scene is very simple. I would just like to see David in a restaurant, sitting at a table, enjoying a meal, preferably with someone joining him. Yes, eating. Then I’d like to see
him get in a car and drive anywhere. I don’t ask for much, a little eating and a little driving. No dialogue involved. LOL
@Mydearwriter is taunting us, teasing us and toying with us and I’m enjoying every second!

Paula, Love the scene you wrote. It’s very easy to picture Daivd in that scene,especially the singing part.
I want a copy of that Josh Bradley poster for my bedroom wall. It could definitely help with those “dreams” David told us to write about. Of course, Hubby might not be quite as appreciative of the addition to the decor.
I have written a few little short stories that could easily star a certain young singer we all like to talk about. One in particular is about a singer named Zach and his first concert in Austin. He meets a fan at his Meet and Greet, and decides he must see her again. I don’t want to give away too much. It’s called “Believe It” and you can read it and a couple of other stories on my short story blog: http://margywrites.wordpress.com/

I’d like to see a scene with him running, with his ” love interest” on the beach, then they stop to catch their breath,watching the sunset, sitting in the sand. (I loved the Alcatraz video with the sun on his face)he could lean over, and draw a heart in the sand, and give her that “look”.

Oh my Josh! So much to enjoy and appreciate. Sigh … sure makes me wish that I had “25 hours every day”, because I’d much rather have “nothing else better to do, than watching” everything that he does … I can’t get over how David’s different expressions can almost change his appearance which makes him just a natural for acting. So glad to see him having fun with his fellow actors.
I feel spoiled with all the media exposure, teaser tweets, photo’s and videos provided by not only his fans but by TV5 network. The degree of support and media coverage has been just incredible … makes me appreciate TV5 that much more and upset at his old record label for so many lost opportunities.
Paula; Love your scenario! Here’s mine. How about seeing Josh strumming a guitar while singing a romantic ballad penned just for his leading lady, ending with him gazing into her eyes as he asks her to be his gal …
Sky; #24 … Yes, that Archugaze is a must … though I wonder how many retakes it took for his leading ladies to get their lines right, lol!

Hello everyone , just saying a small hello from the land down under . Still here , enjoying the love fest between Josh/ David with the Pilipino fans . Can’t wait to hear the song ‘ Nandito Ako ‘ and see the mini series. Being a true blue/pink Pinay, I have the advantage of understanding everything that is being said about our David .
“Gets” nila si David Archuleta ( Pilipinos love David, they understand him). Pilipinos love our David from the tip of his hair/ eye lashes to the tip of his toes. “Kilig to the bones” ( body reaction when you feel happy/romantic), see the faces of the Pilipino fans, when they see David especially when he smiles.
I am not good at writing but I will try my best ( David is good for my soul, keep me from thinking about my personal problems). Love all of these romance stories( I am a romantic at heart). But if you want a bit of laugh, visit snowangelz website , they have two story scenarios.
Will come back later with my short story .

Speaking of torture. Someone needs to take that camera out of Nareejo’s hand before she kills someone. I mean really. Have mercy!
You know, this all COULD be HIS fault. 😛
OK. Scenes with David I’d like to see…
Act I
[ A forest deep and dark, yet imbued with a sort of incandescent glow as though lit from within. It is the realm of Archuleta, home of the Great Elfin King, Davidon. A young girl steps softly in the gleaming gloom, her heart beating within her. She has come to….]
That’s all I got. But there is a fight scene where the girl is saved from an attack by viscous Worlongs by the Elf King who decides to accompany her on her journey to keep her safe. She has no idea that her companion is the one she seeks, the powerful Elf King himself. She only knows that he is more beautiful than anything she has ever beheld, with hair as black as night and eyes, so like jewels, she forgets her purpose and everything she seeks whenever he innocently turns his gaze her way.

Wow, so many goodies!…so little time!! We are sooo spoiled!
Scenes I’d like to see…anything with children or animals, haha! I know it’s a dramatic love story, but David just lights up with kids and animals…and of course, music. Hey, but he’s an actor now… so he may be able to “light up” on cue now!
Ok, it would also be fun to see him jogging (we know how he loves to run)…hmmm, on a beautiful beach….at sunset…with an adorable stray puppy following him (had to work in the animal)…and there!…in the water…a young child (yes, there’s the child work in) having stayed from it’s mother’s grasp,…and looming not far… is a shark! (Yes, the new year’s resolution). David dives in (fully clothed, haha) and saves the child…charms the shark (he’s been known to win over the most hostile of critics)…and calms the child and mother with a beautiful moonlight serenade…only to finish and hear the cries of help from hundreds of teenage girls in the water who are feigning distress!

My goodness, MyDearWriter and I almost collided last night as I left here after posting pics from the second show as she came onto The Voice. Hope this leads to more visits by her. Welcome to The Voice, MyDearWriter. 🙂
Yes Angelica, that pic you posted showed Eula and Jasmine spazzing! LOL And the pic showing the posters that said, “You are my Idol, Josh!” has me wondering if they will use that footage in the miniseries when Josh is onstage, singing.
Had to work today so I didn’t get a chance to watch a single video. 😦 That will keep me busy tonight before chat.
On Twitter, I see so many tweets about David eating ‘balut’ so I decided to find out what it is. According to Wikipedia:
“A balut is a fertilized duck embryo that is boiled alive and eaten in the shell….Considered a high-protein, hearty snack, balut are mostly sold by street vendors in the regions where they are available. It is commonly sold as streetfood in the Philippines.
…In the Philippines, balut eaters prefer salt and/or a chili, garlic and vinegar (white or coconut sap) mixture to season their eggs. The eggs are savored for their balance of textures and flavors; the broth surrounding the embryo is sipped from the egg before the shell is peeled, and the yolk and young chick inside can be eaten. All of the contents of the egg may be consumed, although the white may remain uneaten; depending on the age of the fertilized egg, the white may have an unappetizing cartilaginous toughness. In the Philippines, balut have recently entered haute cuisine by being served as appetizers in restaurants, cooked adobo style, fried in omelettes or even used as filling in baked pastries.
Fertilized duck eggs are kept warm in the sun and stored in baskets to retain warmth. After nine days, the eggs are held to a light to reveal the embryo inside. Approximately eight days later the balut are ready to be cooked, sold, and eaten. Vendors sell cooked balut from buckets of sand (used to retain warmth) accompanied by small packets of salt. Uncooked balut are rarely sold in Southeast Asia. In the United States, Asian markets occasionally carry uncooked balut eggs. The cooking process is identical to that of hard-boiled chicken eggs, and baluts are eaten while still warm.
The age of the egg before it can be cooked is a matter of local preference. In the Philippines, the ideal balut is 17 days old, at which point it is said to be balut sa puti (“wrapped in white”). The chick inside is not old enough to show its beak, feathers or claws, and the bones are undeveloped.”
Hmmm. Can any of our friends in The Philippines tell us how it tastes?
Time to catch up on videos…

Hello my dear friends at The Voice! Stopping by to share how much fun and excitement we had yesterday at the Southmall and Mall of Asia shows. I will be writing a recap later to share it in more detail 🙂
About the balut or balot (we use either spelling interchangeably), it does taste good. It’s hard to describe how it tastes, but it is really good, especially the broth. The younger the egg, the better it tastes. I seldom eat one, but I try to eat it when there’s a chance.
I actually saw David ‘eat’ it, but I will defer sharing the details later. Maybe when David leaves 🙂

One week to go and he will be back on your shores… I have at least 1 more in my wishlist (not for me) before David leaves – wish me luck!
Oh and yes balut tastes REAL good. I mean if you can eat escargot, sushi, or liver, then you will like balut. If not for its high cholesterol content, I would be munching on it regularly 🙂

Thanks to all who stopped in to Unplugged last night for our regular video watching/chat party. We spent a majority of the night examining the mall tour videos (by JR) from Saturday. There were extensive wardrobe discussions involving a certain belt. It was nice to have fenfan stop in from Singapore!
Someone asked Angelica if she had more to say about her Elf King story. She said she had written something a few years ago for a contest at Snarky Archies. Its a good read, and one of the first articles published at TheVoice.

Thanks Abrra! I enjoyed the chat even though I missed the wardrobe discussion.
Re balut – it’s also a Chinese “delicacy”. I remember when I was young, my mother used to cook it. The half-formed chicks would be fried in sesame oil with lots of ginger and a fungus called wood ear. The remaining egg would be made into omelet. Then everything would be doused in lots of rice wine and more sesame oil and made into a warming soup.
I think I ate a little! But nobody cooks it anymore here in Singapore. We do eat escargot, sushi and liver – cooked!

Wherever You Are
I love to see the ocean’s beauty
And the moon that shines above
Alone in the sand lookin at the stars
Wishing someday I would find true love
Wouldn’t be nice to see the morning
With the one you love the most
Wouldn’t be nice to say goodnight
To the one you hold so close
To your heart, to your heart…
The wind that blows the dove
Is the wind that blows my love
Hoping to find its way to you
Wherever you are
I love to sit in fields of green
Looking deeply thru the sky
Watching birds as they flap by
Hoping someday faith will bring me true love
Wouldn’t be nice to hold someone
So dear, n near your heart
Wouldn’t be nice to hear those words
I love you, from the one
That you love, that you love
The wind that blows the dove
Is the wind that blows my love
Hoping to find its way to you
Wherever you are
The wind that blows the dove
Is the wind that blows my love
Hoping to find its way to you
Wherever you are
I love to see myself one day
In the arms of someone
Who will share her life with me
Selflessly, someday you will find your way,
To me . . .
The wind that blows the dove
Is the wind that blows my love
Hoping to find its way to you
Wherever you are
The wind that blows the dove
Is the wind that blows my love
Hoping to find its way to you
Wherever you are, Wherever you are

Okay… What I hope, is that this song “Wherever you are”, will be used as background in the movie. It sounds like it would be a great accompaniment to the storyline. Especially with a montage of past-present scenes of the woman/child and man/child as they are apart and together. I mean… if they recorded it with both Regine’s and DA’s voices… just sayin’.
Can I submit this to “Dear Writer” as my suggestion for a scene?

Watched Regine sing “Wherever You Are.” She sings it beautifully.
If he records this, it will be his most romantic love song to date. The runs at the end are made to order for his vocal skills and the emotional power he can bring to a song. Hope this is given promo by Sony to the max, at least in the Philippines and throughout Asia.

David looks so happy meeting Regine, kind of how we look when we meet him. Regine has a beautiful voice; I should always trust David’s judgment. “Wherever You Are” is ahh so romantic but we’re learning that David is a romantic at heart. Dollars to donuts this song will be in the miniseries.
A great time was had by all in chat. I fell asleep in mid-conversation, as usual, but was there until the very end when we all scooted out.It’s always more interesting when new people join in. Last night fenfan from Singapore was there and told us a little more about balut.
