Hachiko: A Dog's Story

The day after tomorrow... it's not regarding a movie. Literally, the day after tomorrow is the graduation day. This morning, I expected that we'll gonna have the rehearsal at the venue but that didn't happened then. I found that time boring for we're just practicing the songs. I'm quite familiar at the tribute of songs already. Honestly, I spent those time sleeping, yawn.
I'm happy that I already received my toga. Good na naabutan ko pa yung mga maputi. At noonbreak, there's suddenly a film showing at our classroom. Well I'm a movie non-enthusiast but I'm just "forced" to watch the movie because of boredom. It was entitled "Hachiko: A Dog's Story".

It seemed to be a miracle for I haven't slept while watching just what I did on the other films. I was quite attracted at the main character of the story which was Hachiko, the dog.
The film was about the loyalty of the dog with his master which is Professor Parker. Parker took the abandoned dog, Hachiko and they became bestfriends. Hachi would always accompany his master at the train station everyday and return every afternoon after work. Sadly, his master died one day at his work and never returned to the station. Despite of that Hachi still did his same routine for nine years hoping that his master would return until he died.



I found the film so touching and it made me cry while watching. Actually, it bought me back of my dog, Buchoy. It's opposite for he went ahead of me. His routine is that he always greet me everytime I'm home until he got a peculiar illness. He still greet me even though he's weak until he died. T_T I swore that I'll never raise a dog anymore.
Well, back to the film. It seems that I read that story already maybe on my elementary years. I found out that it's based on a real life story of a Japanese dog of the same name Hachiko. The same scenario as the film but the dog accompanied his master at Shibuya Station in Japan.
I conclude that a dog is really a man's bestfriend. It seems that it's rare for cats to do that.. peace yo \m/
