ay, grabe!

"Pilipino ako, sapat na yun na dahilan para mahalin ko ang Pilipinas." - Bob Ong

napakatanga ko naman para makalimutang batiin ng Happy Independence Day ang Pilipinas nuong June 12. anyway, eto... Belated.

sa tingin ko talaga, wala akong sense of nationalism. pero i don't hate the Philippines, feeling ko lang, sa panahon ngayon... it's not practical to be nationalistic kasi for me it's just an ideal thought. though alam kong may mga ganun, i don't think it's real enough.

i love my country. o siguro, i learned to love my country because i don't have the power to chose the right combination of genes to be Puerto Rican.

o diba ang sama ko.

pero seryoso, hindi man ako hardcore Nationalist, mahal ko parin ang Pilipinas... not because i'm stuck being one but because the mere fact that God put me here makes me feel that this country needs something that i have to offer. pero, ayoko munang irealize yun. poor pa ko, mag-aaral muna ko. g-graduate, then i'll see what i can do.

wow, Philippines!
