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.
