maayong hapon chuck!

i was actually surfing write-ups about our bad habits, and i was kindla shocked to really find one. LOL!

I work with different nationalities especially from around Asia and the more I deal with them, the more i can see and compare our attitudes more so the bad side.

The one habit I’m so ashamed of is our being “maru” or “tuso” esp. with money. There has been so many intances of stealing/dishonesty which my foreigner workmates have encountered here with pinoys. Being a pinoy myself, i really feel so ashamed for what my kababayans have done.
Still i keep on wondering, why most pinoys have to do that whenever chances allow them to. Why can’t we just do things with honesty and integrity?

But then again, here comes this another pinoy bad habit, the “kapit sa patalim” move. Bombarded with so many suppressing econimic reasons, si tusong juan can simply or would try to justify his shameful actions.

Hey Cryst!
Hahaha! Ang dami ko ring kilalang ganyan! “Feeling” masyado…! Buti sana kung nasa America pa siya, at least maiintindihan mo kung bakit kailangan mag-trying hard… pero nasa Pinas na eh!

actually, i do encounter na, neighbor ko pa, and talagang super grammatically incorrect trying-hard to be an Americanized individual kahit hindi bagay at “English Barok” talaga! To think, it was several years ago na since bumalik siya dito and yet, feeling nasa States pa din. huh!

Hey Cryst and Eina!
Ever notice how some pinoys, after a brief stay in the U.S., come back to the Philippines acting like they’ve been there forever, forcing out a very artificial, “trying hard” American accent that is error-filled and grammatically incorrect?!
Nakakainit ng ulo! Aaaarrrggghhh!

i feel ashamed for that one eina. actually kahit dito sa Philippines, youngsters nowadays seems to forgot how to be a Filipino, most youngsters (esp. those in public schools) don’t even know the exact & correct lyrics of our National Anthem as well as the Panatang Makabayan. This is what I miss during my school years. Another display of colonial mentality is yung continous patronage ng mga Pinoys sa mga imported…mas binibili pa ung low quality na galing ng China kesa sa proudly Philippine made na goodies. Basta kasi narinig na “imported” ang connotation na eh magandang klase. This is Filipino trait has a great part in slowly killing Small & Medium Industries in the Philippines, dagdagan pa sa mga privilege na natatanggap ng pag-import brought about by free trade agreement with APEC countries.

Oooh. I know one. Colonial Mentality.

It irked me when people sang the Canadian Anthem first and sang the Philippine Anthen in the middle of this Independence Show we had here in Vancouver…

Nakakahiya nga eh, I didn’t muster enough courage to put my right hand over my left chest and sing proudly…. kasi, I wasn’t the only one who just stood there and sang. *smacks self*

Feel na feel pa nga nila kantahin iyong Canadian Anthem, hahaha.
