Buwis is it!

January 27th, 2005 · 2 Comments

Sabi ni Gloria di daw kontra-mahirap ang karagdagang VAT, simple lang ang dahilan n’ya kasi inalis na daw ang sardinas at noodles sa listahan ng mga produktong papatawan ng VAT. Yahoooo!!! Ang saya-saya no! Kasi at least sensitive sila sa mga kababayan nating mahihirap at alam nilang sardinas at noodles lang ang kayang [...]

Macho Kami

January 25th, 2005 · 1 Comment

The truth is, lagi kong inaabangan ang kasunod na episode ng blog ni fionski entitled Sex & Consequences. Magaling kasing mambitin ng kwento si fionski, hehehehe.
Sa totoo lang, bothered ako sa kwento. I don’t know what goes inside a woman’s mind kapag nalaman n’yang buntis siya and di ito pwedeng ituloy. I [...]

Sabi ko na nga ba wag tatawag sa Pinas e. Mabuti pa ung di ka natawag, at least di ka naho-homesick. Kanina tumawag ako sa Pinas kasi birthday ni utol. Since Sunday nga at birthday pa n’ya maraming tao sa bahay.
Na-miss ko tuloy ang Pinas bigla, na-miss ko ang mga handaan, ang [...]

Utang na Loob

January 22nd, 2005 · No Comments

I watched the replay telecast ng “Kumusta Kabayan” kanina via TFC. I have to commend them for a good topic. Ang topic nila ay tungkol sa pagtulong, simple kung titingnan diba? Pero sa mas malalim na kapahulugan. Tinalakay nila kung hanggang saan nga ba dapat tulungan ang mga kapamilya, lalo na [...]

Second Envelope

January 21st, 2005 · No Comments

Yesterday was the second anniversary of EDSA DOS, there’s not much celebration. I guess the people are wondering why they joined that momentus day that in a way changed the history of our land.
Looking back EDSA DOS could have been prevented. Kung di dahil sa katangahan ng mga kaalyado ni Erap. Kung [...]

Return to work

January 19th, 2005 · No Comments

I lost track of the Hacienda Luisita case, di naman sa tinamad na kong subaybayan, I got frustrated lang sa development. Nanlulumo ako sa mga developments. You can’t blame me, dati akong nasa ganoong larangan, I was a labor leader once.
Kanina while I was watching the news, ibinalita na may return to work [...]

Pandesal

January 16th, 2005 · 2 Comments

Noong nasa kolehiyo pa ako, isang lesson ang di ko makalimutan sa aming economics class. We were discussing the micro economy then (matagal na yun. hehehehe), nakakatuwa kasi na inihalintulad ng Professor namin ang Philippine Economy sa “pandesal”.
Nagtataka siguro kayo kung ano ang kinalaman ng pandesal sa ekonomiya ng Pinas.
Simple lang ang analogy [...]

Gamophobia???

January 12th, 2005 · 2 Comments

May “gamophobia” ba ako?
Yan ang tinanong ko kanina sa sarili ko. I’ve learned about the word kanina din lang, yan pala ang mga taong takot or galit sa kasal. I can’t help but ask kasi nga at my age (35 na po) and I’m still single.
Napakarami ng tao ang nagtatanong sa akin kung [...]
