PiNoY PriDe!



Noun 1. roots - the condition of belonging to a particular place or group by virtue of social or ethnic or cultural lineage

I just had one of those intelligent conversations with a *qt friend (newfound yosi partner hehe) of mine about this guy who doesn't like people who are diehard pinoys living here in cali.

He can probably blab constantly for 24 hours without knowing that you have not spoken a single word. He is truly a classic! He is one of those people you wished you had a giant stapler and use it to close his mouth just to keep his mouth shut. I admire his courage to voice out so many of his so-called sophisticated opinions; however, what made me furious is the way he looks down on Filipinos who have the decency to recognize where they truly come from, and acknowledge their own roots.

I mean you are in America man, but that does not make you different of what you truly are pare. Even if you become an American citizen, change your name, dye your hair, do some crazy ritual, or whatever, you are a Filipino. It is as simple as that. People like you are the ones who should be looked down at and be embarrassed about themselves.

I will not mention his name since I don’t want to be too harsh cursing this dude out of my evil reaction to one of his “well-thought” opinion.
*In fairness, he is okay naman when he does not say that much.
PIECE OF ADVICE lang nga:
it’s okay to Shut up! once in a while and rest your machine gun mouth

*-gay expression na nde na natanggal sa vocab ko ever since i left pinas.

MORAL: mga pareeeeeh at mareeeeehh ko
You have a choice, either to recognize your roots or not to, one thing is for sure if you want to look stupid you will always have that other choice. Roots, or what you call your cultural origins, will surely make you stand out from the rest believe me.(When I have a passenger who tells bad things about staying in the Philippines, I wage an endless debate that Philippines is still one of the best countries in Asia) Besides, I love being a Filipino…
Especially being a KAPAMPANGAN hehe…

mga muret! mangan ta na… nasi at adobong babi.. mwahaha… balamu bisa kung magkapampangan… ali naman masyado… ditak lang..

(mga crazy people, kain tayo… rice and adobong baboy… mwahhahaha… akala mo naman marunong magkapampangan… nde naman masyado… kaunti lang…)

hehehe… and the rest of my kapampangan vocab are explicit, and oo nga pala I can also sing some parts of “ATI KU PUNG SINGSING” cuz that’s what my mom used to irritate us with inside the car… hehhe… memories…

see… if I don’t recognize those little memories that are priceless, I wouldn’t understand half the man I am today…

(wow shet deep… nalunod ata ako… saklolo…. saklolo)
