Bato-bato sa langit…

Tuesday, February 28th, 2006

Most of the people that this person represents have the same exact sentiments! And that even includes me…read on!

 

Ako ay isang middle class Pinoy, isang
officer sa isang malaking
korporasyon at may asawa…dalawa anak. Di na
importante pangalan ko
kasi parepareho naman tayong mga
middle-class….trabaho 9-5, inom konti
tapos uwi sa pamilya, laruin si baby,
itutor si ate/kuya tapos tulog na,
pag wala na pera intay nalang ng
sweldo.

Sa nangyayari ngayon sa ating bansa, lahat nalang ng sector ay
maingay
at naririnig, tayo lang mga middle-class, tax paying at productive
Pinoys
ang di naririnig. Subalit, buwis natin ang nagpapaikot sa bansang
ito.
Pag may mga gulo na nangyayari, tayo ang tinatamaan. Kaya eto ang liham
ko

sa lahat ng maiingay na sector na sana makagising sa inyong bulag
na
pag-iisip.

Sa Mga
Politiko:

Diyos ko naman, sa
dami na nang nakurakot ninyo di na ba kayo
makuntento kelangan nyo pa ba
manggulo.

Sa
Administrasyon:

Hayan ayus na ha pinatawad na namin ang
pandaraya nyo sa eleksyon,
pruweba dito e di kami umaatend sa mga panawagan
ng people power, kaya
sana naman gantihan nyo
kami ng magandang serbisyo at magaling na pamumuno
at malaking bawas sa
kurakot naman please para kahit papano maramdaman
naman namin na may
napupuntahan ang binabayad naming buwis.

Saka Madam GMA,
step down ka na pag parliamentary na tayo sa 2007,
tignan mo, i-announce mo
mag-step down ka kapag parliamentary na tayo,
resounding YES yan sa
plebiscite at tigil pa ang mga coup at people power
laban sayo. Try mo
lang………

Sa Oposisyon:

Di nyo
pa ba nakikita na dalawang klase lang ng tao ang nakikinig
sa
inyo….isa ay bayaran na
mahihirap kungdi man ay tangang mga
excited
na reporter na parang naka-shabu lagi….mga praning
e at naghahallucinate.

Bago man lang kayo maglunsad ng kilos laban sa
administrasyon,
pumili muna kayo ng magiting at nararapat na ipapalit sa
liderato ngayon.
Hirap sa inyo paresign kayo ng paresign wala naman kayo
ipapalit na maayos.
Advise lang galing sa isang
middle-class na syang tunay na puwersa sa
likod ng lahat ng matagumpay na
People Power, magpakita muna kayo ng galing
bago nyo batuhin ang
administrasyon. Wala na kaming narinig sa inyo kundi
reklamo,
e wala naman kayong ginagawa kundi magreklamo….para kayong
batang lagi na
lang naaagawan ng laruan…..GROW UP naman…sa isip sa
salita at sa
gawa.

Please lang gasgas na rin ang pagrarally nyo na katabi nyo ay
mga
bayaran na mahihirap, magtayo nalang kayo ng negosyo at iempleyo ang
mga
rallyista para maging productive silang mamamayan. Sige nga, pag
nagrarally kayo yakapin nyo nga at halikan yang
mga kasama nyong nagrarally!! Nung
People Power namin nagyayakapan kami lahat
nuon.

Wala naman mangyayari sa mga rally nyo
nakakatraffic lang, kami pang
middle-class ang napeperwisyo. Di nyo kayang
paghintayin ng 3 araw ang
mga rallyista nyo kasi kelangan nyo pakainin at
swelduhan ang mga yan.
Kung gusto nyo tagumpay na
People Power kami ang isama nyo….pero pagod na
kami e, sori
ha.

Sa
Military:

Alam nyo lahat tayo may problema, pati US Army
may problema, 2,000 plus
na patay sa kanila sa Iraq na parang walang rason
naman, pero nakita nyo
ba sila nagreklamo? Wala diba kasi professional sila
na sundalo…..yan
dapat ang sundalo di
nagtatanong sumusunod lang. Kasi may mga bagay na di
kayang
maintindihan ng indibidwal lamang, at ang mga nakatataas lang
ang
nakakaintindi ng kabuuan, kaya ito ang panuntunan ng lahat ng
military
ng lahat ng bansa. Pero parang military natin yata ang
pinaka-mareklamo.
Sabi nga sa Spiderman "with great power comes great
responsibility"…..kaya
maging spiderman kayo
lahat at protektahan ang mamamayan. Sa totoo lang

natatakot kami kapag nagrereklamo kayo, kasi may baril kayo at
tangke, kami wala.

Wala ako comment sa mga mahihirap, di
naman kasi sila maingay na kusa
e, may bayad ang ingay nila. Saka wala rin
naman silang email.

Kaya paano na tayong mga middle-class?? Eto hanggang
email nalang tayo
kaya ikalat nyo na ito at magdasal tayo na umabot ito sa
mga dapat makabasa
nito at makiliti naman ang kanilang mga
konsyensya.

Signed,
Isang Middle-Class Pinoy na walang puknat
na binabawasan ang sweldo ng Buwis!

Employer’s Dream

Monday, February 27th, 2006

Once in a while, I think of something and write it down or mostly send it as a text message to some of my unsuspecting friends. It’s not because I have a problem…all I want is to share that idea and maybe stimulates an idea to the one I sent it to. I see it as a way my brain tries to ease off all the pressure of thoughts circling inside it. Well, right now I have another one…

willing to work ANY shift…for not that much pay…and for ANY workload given…unsupervised…and sacrifices dayoffs to meet deadlines…what more could a company ask for in an employee? they’d kill for employees like that.

Comments / reactions / flame war…ur welcome to state it. ^___^

Counters

Wednesday, February 8th, 2006

Whoa! I just got word on how much my car mishap REALLY costs…its close to buying another brand new Sony Ericsson K750i!!! (do the math people!) *sigh*

That’s what really bugs me the past few days. The waiting is making me crazy. But when it did happen, I was shocked. Nwei there’s nothing to be accomplished by sulking all day…. One crazy idea that suddenly popped in my head unrelated to my current problem is this "Is there a way to have some kind of ‘visitor counter’ in our friendster blogs?" I mean I don’t know how many people out there reads my blog as part of their daily ritual. (If ever there is someone reading it on a daily basis…its both flattering and weird! hehe…)  I came with that thought because a friend suddenly sent me this message thru my IM client…"hey! i read ur blog! ur a good writer!" I didn’t even know he still existed in this world but suddenly his prescence was felt because of my blog.

So, in a way, I think a "blog counter", as I call it, should be an added feature by friendster. What do you think?

Btw, for my avid readers thanks for being weird (but in a good way!). Hehehe…^__^

LUCK

Monday, February 6th, 2006

Do you believe in luck? Webster defines it like this…"An unknown and unpredictable phenomenon that causes an event to result one way rather than another". Pretty vague huh? From what I understand, its something like an external or 3rd party issue that happens in which you’re original plan is screwed. Hehehe…well its what I decipher anyway. Let me share what happened to me for the past few days. Maybe it describes the very essence of luck.

It all started happening around 2 weeks ago when I lost a rather large sum of money on my self-proclaimed business. It was actually my first loss in the biz. I won’t go into much detail about it but I should have paid more attention to what fate was telling me. I used the word fate coz we’re talkin about luck. They are two phenomenons science could not ever explain. Anyway, I juz brushed off the incident as a loss and convinced myself to move on. But as the days go by, more and more weird things are happening that either lose me money or screw up my plans. Anyway, I’m still not convinced that something is amiss (most people say I have a thick skull =P)…I still brushed off the incidents as plain coincidence. But what happened last Sunday night really proved me wrong.

I always accompany my kid sister to our family friend’s place every Sunday because its much near UP Diliman where she’s studying. Anyway, I was drivin home after dropping her off to QC, when I heard a weird noise coming from below the car. Its like metal scraping another metal. Its getting louder by the minute so I slowed down and searched for a place to stop so I could check it out. Fortunately, there’s a nearby gas station ahead so I drove there and investigated where the sound was coming from. I thought it was only my muffler but when I looked under the hood…the sound was coming from there. Unfortunately, the sound was coming from WITHIN the engine. I tried starting the car…all I got was a click. Tried again…’click’…’click’. Well, to make the story short I won’t be going anywhere. I’m stuck there till help came and towed the car. Again, I paid a rather silly amount for the car to be brought back to Pque. And that doesn’t cover the actual amount for the car to be fixed. *sigh*

The car’s still being fixed on the time of this writing. The mechanic says it would take long before the car would be ready again and would send me the bill later. *sigh* and double *sigh *sigh*. Well, it’s another day…I wonder what would happen next. Wierd, huh? I ask again…do you believe in luck?
