Abstract

Beginning:
A frog peeps through a hole in his coconut shell. He sees birds, cars, trees, traffic lights, and some other stuff which are alien to him. He then sees something fascinatingly beautiful on the outside world (glimpses of voluptuous women), and his curiosity starts to creep in. The women leads his view to a scenic park across the road. His excitement begins to build. He jumps out from the coconut shell wanting to start out a new life. He hops and hops, looking on in awe at the world around him.

Body / Climax:
The frog is so absorbed in what he has in his sight and could not care less to look where he is heading. Thanks for his carelessness, he suddenly hops straight into a dumpster. He frantically tries to get out of the dumpster but try as he may, he finally give up to fatiqueness. His depression does not last though, for he finds all sorts of never seen before stuff around him in the dumpster. Rotten leftover food, crumpled receipts, broken household appliances, aerosol cans, plastic and styrofoam container, used condoms etc., all of which are alien to the frog (all this while he used to live under a coconut shell after all). He gleefully plays with his new 'toys', fitting the condom over his head thinking how his friends are all stupid for they are still living under coconut shells while he has advances and finds so many new discovery in his dumpster. He eats the flies and maggots and even the rotten food. He finds a syringe and plays with it as though it is a spear. Then he finds a small packet of white powder and starts sniffing it. He feels a slight jolt and starts to get high.

Day in day out, new things such as plastic bags, banana skin, smelly old socks, a long sleeved shirt smeared with lipstick marks, aerosol cans, beer cans, a broken pirated VCD, a baby, and some liquor bottles are thrown into the dumpster to the delight of the frog. As more and more things enter the dumpster, the frog joyously jumps about while at the same time playfully evading the falling objects. There is one time however, due to oblivious elation, the frog fails to dodge a falling cigarette box which plunges right onto his head. But what really surprises him is when a smoking gun is thrown into his dumpster (sound of gunshot, a horrifying shriek, and fast running footstep can be heard beforehand). But the oblivious frog just could not care less for he has find himself a personal haven.

Ending / Conclusion:
As times passes, the frog gets thinner, his skin color changes, he is getting some spots (or skin disease with lump) and he is not as active as before. He looks sick, but his face suggest that he is already sucked into this life of his. He never thought that his new world is a dumpster. And, he is unaware, at that very moment, a garbage truck is lifting and emptying the dumpster he is currently in.

Character Description
A common frog with major light green tint and yellowish belly. He is pretty well-built. Has curiosity written all over his face. Has a pair of big wide eyes. A slight smile is almost a permanent fixture on his face.
