100 Lobo Para Kay LabLab
Mall balconies are too hostile to many. People who have fear of heights would always feel weak with their knees trembling just being a few steps close to it. People who are naturally scared of falling wouldn't even dare to stand near the balcony even if it's built with steel bars and glass. It's a no-no-no for them. It gets more frightening once they look down and see how high their spot actually is. The higher the view, the scarier it gets. Mall balconies are usually uninviting but last night, balconies suddenly became friendly to us. For a moment, everyone was ready to look down, to look up, to hold on and to let things fall into place.
Escalated
It's no secret to us that fans always look forward to Star Magic Ball proposals. Too showbiz? Well, it has to be. Star Magic Ball is a highly-anticipated event. Who wouldn't want to gush over cute and creative proposals? It's all part of the process, guys. Publicity counts, gimmicks are given but the “real effort” coming from the artists is what makes it all special. McCoy has always been good in popping surprises. Remember when he came back inside PBB house for SwerTeen ball? The memories of the blindfold, the impulse and the flow of his words are still fresh to us. It was his first proposal to Elisse that made us say “Lord, penge ng isang McCoy!” He also proposed to Elisse last year in It's Showtime where placards and One hundred Roses gladly took the spotlight. Take note, it was LIVE. We'd be lying if we say we aren't proud of these proposals. This year, the fanmily came up with the idea that even an intimate proposal would be fine. But it seems like we're not really meant to settle with assumptions or a discreet invitation. Last night, fans dressed up with Romantic Red shirts and graced the Mega Mall Fashion Hall to witness the Making Mega Turkey Documentary with McLisse. Everyone came to see the MEGA documentary without a clue that something worth documenting was going to happen.
The “Red Balloon series” finally came to an end last night with the last balloon showing up with “LABLAB” written on it. If we're going to think about it, it seems like “time” unselfishly allowed this crazy wonderful plan to work out perfectly. The puzzle pieces perfectly fit one another. Don't blame September for stapling the moments so well! The Good Son, MEGA documentary and Star Magic Ball 2017 were all set to happen this month just like how McCoy's plans were all set to be fulfilled.
LOOK UP x LOOK DOWN
McCoy is a big box full of surprises, you can also consider him as a big box that's full of things that you never thought you needed and he's also a big box who doesn't limit himself inside the four walls. He thinks as if there's no box. He will go out of his way when love calls.
Elisse's happiness was way above the clouds too. The balloons scattered as they floated around the large space. Happiness isn't supposed to stay in one place. It's meant to be shared, it should fly and it should reach even the most hopeless corners of the Earth. Mokya made Elisse's heart happy. He truly did.
The hundRED balloons fell, the vertical banner showed itself to people who were dying of anticipation. It asked Elisse if she would go to the ball with someone who has always been treating her as a princess. She said “YES” not just once but multiple times. The long banner wasn't just a simple prop. It successfully served its purpose of being a “messenger” that reminded us that no matter how long would it take, we would still get the message. It didn't just show the message literally. It didn't just show us the question written on it. It also showed us the effort, creativity and sincerity all rolled into one long piece of cloth.
We were reminded that in times we're down, we can always look up to search for an answer and in this case, we indeed got an answer-- McCoy really prepared a special proposal for her. The question of whether he would ask her publicly was answered in a very very special way. We also got to hear McLisse calling each other “LabLab” in public! Another oMEGAd moment, bes.
The proposal made a mark in our hearts again. Effort will always beat extravagance. McCoy outdid his past surprises but... no pressure for the future ones, Mokya! We just wanted them to continue surprising each other with good stuffs. The fanmily always got McCoy and ELisse no matter what, with or without grand surprises, we’re always here to hold on. McCoy and Elisse would often say that it's the little things that matter the most, but sometimes it's also good to appreciate the bigger ones so that you can also see how far a person would go for love. Awwww McLisse.
Mall balconies will never be the same again. The next time we find ourselves strolling around the mall, we'll surely look around, notice and appreciate the balcony of each floors. We will always remember how McLisse had let things fall freely into place as we reflect that beautiful things can also happen even in the riskiest places we don't always dare to set foot on.
Star Magic Ball 2017, here we go!!
