Harboring striking characteristics that make them well known to all, some portrayals have grown to become common tropes in fiction and media with those same characteristics that compel feelings of recognition and familiarity among viewers and readers. One may find in the list below a trope that they have come to easily recognize. Girly girls Starting off with the kikay girls\u2014from the shimmering dangling earrings to the glittery makeup, you name it! Looking at their outer appearance alone, one can say from the get-go that these are the girly girls. The world becomes their runway as they flaunt their head- to-toe pink and preppy outfits, long and sparkly nails down to six-inch high heels. The media perceives this character as the mean girl, full of sass and unlikeable, but on the flipside, their character possesses a lot more depth than what is on the surface for they also encompass bravery, class and confidence while being full-on feminine. Under this trope falls Elle Woods from Legally Blonde and your classic pink icon Regina George from Mean Girls. man ic pixie dream girl One can say that they\u2019re \u201cnot like other girls.\u201d You might have met Leslie Burke from the movie Bridge to Terabithia, Summer from 500 Days of Summer or Margo from Paper Towns. See the pattern? These Manic Pixie Dream Girls are portrayed to be quirky, full of energy, adventurous, and playful. They stand out from other characters for being uniquely charming. At some point, they\u2019ll pull out a completely unexpected surprise because they can be unpredictable and bizarre at times. They will keep you entertained and leave you guessing on their next move.","QUEEN 77 The GIRLBOSS Girlboss is a term used to describe women in power\u2014especially made after those who are charismatic, confident, smart, and composed. She radiates energy that makes the people around drawn to her person. One popular icon in the fictional world would be Beth Harmon from Queen\u2019s Gambit. Women like her defy misogynistic views by showing their aptness to show who is the real boss in the game. Reflected in today\u2019s society, more and more girls are inspired by women in the media towards becoming more empowered and independent than ever. Masculin e g i rls Meet the Mascs. Most of the time, they are instantly seen as queers, but in actuality, that is not always the case. Iconic examples would be Jo March from Little Women (2019), Robin from Stranger Things, and Marceline from Adventure Time. These characters do not feel the need to fit in or conform to society\u2019s standards. They prove that women can be on par with men, regardless of the stereotypes that society has imposed on them. *** Each of these tropes shine just as brightly as the other for they all represent the different representations of women in media. From the classic pink Girly Girl to the unconforming Mascs, one might just find depictions of these tropes in women from the real world. Whether one or the other, despite their highly differing personalities, these portrayals showcase the diversity and uniqueness of women across various platforms\u2014each one just as charming and accepted as the rest.","King","KING 79 Enduring the marionette\u2019s strings Words by Anielle Mendoza Art by Johanna Abigail Nieva Following along to every movement, the strings fastened and tied to every single limb shows no sign of break- ing.

However, with quarrels and upheavals over time, cracks will begin to form around the framework that, when left unchecked, can lead to the walls crumbling down. As photographed frames with familiar faces shatter and the concrete foundations collapse, one frantic with hurry rushes to repair the once impervious and secure home before it crashes into smithereens. \u201cA FAILED FRIENDSHIP means that there are things that you and your friend had issues with unresolved, or your friendship does not grow anymore because of some reasons,\u201d Humanities and Social Sciences faculty Jezreel Manna Casilla defined. According to her, failed friendships are the lamentable downfall of a companion- ship built upon trust and a bond that once stood robust and tall. As a response to this debacle, below are some instructions that can help fortify the foundation of reliance and restore the furnishings that once housed momentous memories.","82 KING Inspecting the damage It started with a faint quivering of the ground. As time goes by, the shaking gradually builds up force until every household member finds it difficult to ease their mind with the constant turmoil lurking within the house. With stronger tremors ensuing in succession and alarming crevices beginning to crawl along the walls, one must act logically and carefully by examining the damages first to decide the necessary course of action. \u201cA person can identify if there is something wrong in the friendship (once) your friend (becomes) distant in a way (where) you have no idea why,\u201d Casilla said. Furthermore, distancing themselves from the circle or refusing to communicate could also hint at a distance forming between the relationship. \u201cYou can also detect if there is something wrong in your friendship when you try to keep in touch and initiate [activities] to bond with [your friends] and they continuously (reject) it,\u201d she added. Moreover, Casilla elaborated how taking the time to ponder upon the times of companionship can take one a step forward in mending the bond once more. \u201cReflecting back on the friendship helps each person to look back on how and why they started to build that friendship.\u201d She explained. \u201c[Reflecting back] will help you to keep motivated to commit to the friendship.\u201d Talks of reconstruction Subsequent to examining the losses, one can proceed to matters with more involvement as a collective in a rational discussion. With the damages perceived, one can now deliberate with fellow household members regarding possible plans to fill in the cracks and strengthen the foundation to resist the growing tremors echoing from the earth. Though a number of disagreements may arise, compromises should be made to fit each member's judgment. As one finally acknowledges the possible faults and lapses that lead to the friendship\u2019s decline, navigating through the relationship could be precarious as miscommunication might escalate the damage further. Albeit sensitive to maneuver, an open discussion between each individual entangled in the situation should proceed. However, to initiate a level-headed conversation, Casilla said, \u201cYou should be willing to communicate, hear, and understand your friend's feelings, and forgive each other's mistakes.\u201d All parties must be open and willing to listen to one another and make compromises. \u201cCommunication will be the first key factor in helping to mend failed friendships,\u201d Casilla explained. \u201c[S]ince this will help both of you to share your feelings and emotions about what is happening around your friendship.\u201d Additionally, as further elucidated by Casilla, the ability of communication to effectively convey one\u2019s emotions to someone else is a significant help with rekindling the bond. \u201cIt will help to mend failed friendships since you are able to hear and understand each other's thoughts and feelings.\u201d","KING 83 Rebuilding after the wreckage With a realized plan after a meaningful conversation, putting in the effort to restore the damages fully dictates if the losses are beyond repair. Some expenses are expected with refurbishing the paint, finding a stronger foundation, tidying up living quarters, and even piecing together broken glass and frames. Forlorn with the looming downfall of the ostensible firm haven, one can attempt to recover any reparable fragments of snapshots, hoping to revisit the moments shared inside the abode\u2019s walls. With all parties now in understanding, one can now follow it with efforts to make amends. In addition to communication, there are various ways one can take in the path of fixing the friendship. \u201cYou can make amends by sincerely apologizing, especially when you know within yourself that you're the main cause of the problem.\u201d As one utters an earnest apology, they free themselves of pride. \u201cApologizing shows that friendship is more important than your ego (in order) to make the friendships work again,\u201d Casilla stated. Time will undeniably be spent as one patches up the relationships' wounds and fractures. \u201c[M]ake your friend feel that you are still willing to fix the friendship that you have by not leaving them or by not letting them feel alone and lonely,\u201d Casilla mentioned. Efforts to reconnect the bond may be wasted if one rushes ahead and pressures the other parties to recover. However, as new moments with each other are made over time, one may be reminded of the affection that sparked their bond. Allowing the walls to collapse On the other hand, some damages may be so broken that, when one makes an attempt to restore these cracks, they will only find themselves bruised and wounded from rough edges and glass shards. No matter how one tries to improve the support structure, its underlying tremors will always overpower any efforts of restoration. Maybe, these walls are destined to collapse. Although the effort one gave to repair the friendship was absolute, there will be instances wherein no amount of time or words could outright salvage the vestiges of the relationship. \u201cSome friendships are meant to fail altogether,\u201d Casilla established. \u201cMaybe the friendship (was) too toxic to save.\u201d For friendships ill of toxicity, one must accept to release the hopeful grip of recovering the intimacy that once was. \u201cLosing a friend is one of the hardest moments in a (person\u2019s life),\u201d Casilla declared. No matter how painful the wreckage of a broken friendship might feel, rebuilding on an impossible land would only lead to further hurt. Casilla puts it simply as she stated, \u201c[Y]ou need to face the reality that not all friendships will last [for much] longer.\u201d Letting a toxic friendship fall means saving oneself from danger. \u201cYou can let go of (a) toxic friendship by appreciating yourself more, (focusing) on the things that make you happy, and (being) with those people who value (and accept) you for who you are.\u201d *** As the dust settles, one cannot repudiate the catastrophe and devastation the predicament has caused. A failed friendship can serve as a lesson on how one navigates amidst a crowd of diverse personalities and characters. No matter how unbreakable the bond may seem, one should learn that problems are still bound to arise as beings of emotion. According to Casilla, \u201c[T]here are friendships that will test your loyalty and commitment to the relationship you have with your friend.\u201d Being with people that value one's worth and respect might just be worth risking the losses to create moments of love and war with\u2014for better or for growth.","84 KING Varying male portrayals in media Words by Anielle Mendoza Art by Nika Charmee Dugay May we not forget the male portrayals in media that have become commonplace enough for audiences to rec- ognize. From the bad boy to the jock, these tropes each serve their own purpose and role in the story they are in. With their varying personalities and salient characteristics, these males have made their mark in the media and become the kind that most can recognize. Though not limited to a specific figure, these four tropes below have gained a place among the most common. the rebel More than what meets the eye, the rebel seems to serve a role filled with nothing but trouble. However, once you get to know the person behind the tough exterior, one will find that there is more to him than his reputation may suggest. An upholder of truth and an advocate for change, the rebel seeks to speak up against the wickedness present within society and move to make a difference in it. Although the media may more often than not paint this trope as a harbinger of chaos for other characters, the rebel can inspire viewers alike to stand up and fight for freedom and justice. the jock Sociable and with a knack for athletics, the jock pulls you in with their charming personality and friendly-to-all attitude. Though one may find fiction and media to regularly villainize this trope, the jock can inspire audiences to develop a love and interest for sports and outdoor activities. Staying fit and regular exercises are not only what the jock is about though, for if one chooses to dig deeper, they may find a character that is more than what the media portrays him to be\u2014showcasing that one can be more than just their status.","KING 85 BOY N EXT DOOR Though seemingly unassuming at first glance, this particular trope is known among the masses for the personality they harbor. Dependable and with an approachable demeanor about them, the boy next door has become one of the more common character tropes in media. Whether they have been the protagonist\u2019s neighbor all their life or have only just recently moved in, this male character will readily offer their aid if one is in need of it. With a respectable personality, the boy next door shows the audience what it means to be a true and a good friend. M R. PERFECT As the name suggests, this male trope is well-liked and well-known by the people around him. Seemingly good at everything he does, Mr. Perfect is blessed with good looks and talent; almost as if he has it all. However, as one looks beyond the glitz and glamor, the audience recognizes a human being, flawed just like the rest\u2014 with insecurities, fears, and aspirations like any other. Though to all appearances, they may be \u201cperfect,\u201d this character convinces us to embrace our imperfections and reminds us of the humanity behind making mistakes *** Male tropes can be seen far and wide in the media\u2014not being limited to only these four. Though common of a portrayal they may be, may we learn not to stereotype these tropes and assume the worst out of them. Instead, as one chooses to look beneath the surface of who they are, they may find a number of layers, all describing these characters through various means. Thus as we look behind the exterior, may we recognize that beyond being just tropes in media, these characters have come to inspire and influence audiences in their own respective ways.","Anielle Mendoza Features Editor Lois Lu Roy Hembra Andrew Dela Plana","Jose Miguel Octavo Alexie Jeanne Masangkay Mattheo Gabriel Neala Arianna Parani Adam Joaquin Guasis Francis Andrei Baraquel","GRAPHICS AND LAYOUT ARTISTS Hiro Odamaki Juliana Ellice Kyle Desmond Co Naevien Riley Layout in Charge Polancos Valenzuela Van Deguilmo Aliah Mae Endaya Alfredo Hilario Nadine Narciso PHOTOGRAPHERS Nicole Infante Almira Isabel Antoine Cortez Photo Editor Aguila Anika Jordan Kaisha Keith Jean Carla Mu\u00f1oz Perez VIllano","ARTISTS Cecilia Nazarine Bicol Aya Ahmad Sean Jacob Jannbeau Amadeus Art Editor Altoveros Rain Astrero Sophia Nicole Johanna Abigail Klaire Ni\u00f1a Rianne Nicole Guadamor Nieva Llarena Ocampo Jessie Gabrielle Reanne Ashley Liam Nico Jana Allyson Peralta Roguel Sullivan A\u00f1ora Nika Charmee Jaquelyn Katherine John Benedict Dugay Guevara Shaniah Llarena Varon","La Estrella Verde The Official Senior High School Publication of De La Salle University Dasmari\u00f1as EDITORIAL BOARD A.Y. 2022-2023 Tiffany Geluz, Editor in Chief Lexter Nico Mahusay, Associate Editor Anielle Mendoza, Managing Editor Naevien Riley Valenzuela, Copy Editor Saira Vanessa Varon, News Editor Jane Llana Cordova, Sports Editor Anielle Mendoza, Features Editor Wrenzhie Arroyo, Literary Editor Cecilia Nazarine Bicol, Art Editor Hiro Odamaki, In Charge, Layout Nicole Infante, Photo & Video Editor Juliana Ellice Polancos, Web Editor Serge Angelo Quiambao, Radio Entertainment Program Manager Yzabelle Mei Robillo, Radio News Program Manager Khen Nemuel Lacaba, Adviser La Estrella Verde has its editorial office at Room JHS149, High School Complex De La Salle University - Dasmari\u00f1as DBB-B City of Dasmari\u00f1as, Cavite 4115 Email: [email protected] Facebook: www.facebook.com\/DLSUDLaEstrellaVerde Twitter and Instagram: @LeviofLEV","",""]
