i havent posted a blog in a long time.. so mejo mahaba-haba ito.
nothing much has been happening to me. im in a new shift now, 3am-12pm. i dont get much calls na nga nung 6am ako. and now.. wow, boredom strikes na talaga. i get around 20 calls per day. at madami na yon.
at least im not so stressed na. i still get to sleep at night. i can still catch some of my primetime shows.
the only prob with this shift is goin to the office. i hafta leave by 215-230am.. by cab. patay ang wallet ko. the driver used to bring me to work. but my mom talked to him and asked for his "asking price" or how much he would charge per day or per hatid. he was asking P150. hallur?! mas mahal pa sha sa cab ride ko, which is only P100. kelangan tatagan ko ng magcommute. i hafta buy pepper spray. hopefully, there would still be buses at edsa at that time (meron, pero pa-baclaran sila. i need ayala buses).
ive been sleeping during the weekends with this shift. and i get 10 calls per day. saya. im well rested. tas i can go gimik pa. ill file a leave. tas alis na lang ako maaga sa house pero kunwari i have work. hehe.
anyway, enzo's growing bigger.. as always. higanteng baby. hehe. he'll be 5months by next week. humahalakhak na sha. he smiles and laughs more often. and he has this new bisyo. he sticks out his tongue. wala lang. it looks so cute and funny.
12% na ang vat. holy kamote!!! sana lang ipampayad nga ng international debt at hindi ng mga luho ng mga corrupt jan.. kamahal mahal ng commodities at kaliit liit ng sweldo (yes, kakarampot pa rin ang kinikita ko even if some would beg to disagree. i have a kid kaya kakarampot lang sha.) a part of me really wants to leave this country.. you know, seek greener pastures. but im still having second thoughts.. like any sentimental fool, i dont wanna leave cos of the people ill be leaving behind. pero shempre, i cant help but think of enzo's future. hay. bahala na. i have 2-3 years from now to make ipon and decide.. if things go well here (despite political crisis and all that shit), i might stay.
palabas na ang PBB celebrity edition.. wahaha. as if im interested at inaantabayanan ko sha. hindi noh. really. i was just interested to know kung sino-sino ang kasama sa line up. and now that kilala ko sila, ayun. funny, andun ang lead singer ng jr kilat. and keanna reeves (is that how you spell her last name?). i wonder. rambol. haha. nobody there drool worthy and worth watching.. so there.
anyway, to those who know me well.. you know i always have a say or opinion about stuff.. so here it goes.
in line with the ultra tragedy.. manhid lang ba talaga ako? but honestly, when i heard the news, i was a little shocked. but hindi ako naiyak.
like me, my mom has her own opinion about the tragedy. but i cant help but disagree with her in silence. i dont wanna start a useless argument wherein your opinion will always be wrong and will never be heard. anyhoo, shempre, ever loyal ang mom ko sa network.. its not their fault daw and all that. i think otherwise.
and i would have to agree with the person who said that the people were manipulated by the network. yung treated like animals.. well, that was kinda harsh. but hey, its the reality. the truth most of the time stabs us at the most sensitive part of our being.
sure, that show helps a lot of people by giving away money. but think about it.. its a front for manipulation.. better ratings and all that. somehow, it glorifies being in that type of situation. instead of busying themselves with looking for work, or working, or doing something about their situation, they instead stay glued on the screen and wasting money by texting or waste their time falling in line everyday. it glorifies being in that situation because its like saying, "its okay to be like that. there is always hope.. hope in the sense that there will always be people willing to share their resources.." it creates some kind of dependency. big money.. easy money.. and, the bad thing about this "glorifying of the situation" is that, since we are aired in most places of the world, it makes us look really bad.. destitute and desolate.
segue: and also, these game shows reflect how bad our education system in the philippines is. bad english (wrong grammar, wrong pronunciation, etc), lack on basic knowledge (math, english, sciences, history..), etc.
i know, i know.. some will react that im just saying this cos ive never been in that situation cos i grew up privileged.. that im saying this from bird's eye point of view.. from my observations and not from someone who belongs in that type of situation. true and false. i was privileged. but i did experience that kind of situation (but i wont get into the details of that.. all of you my girlfriends know about that horrific past of mine, right?). but i did something about it.
but hey.. that's just me and my opinion about it..
guess who's curly.. hehehe
