the world's a stage

oh, life

Do you know if someone is making noise? Do you know the difference of someone who is making noise than someone who just talking? I don't think 3 people do. People were reprimanded awhile ago because they were said to be noisy. The other people who were called, yes, I do believe they were noisy. But Mina and Mikee? That, my friends, I don't believe in. WHO THE HELL BELIEVES THAT ANYWAY? I know for a fact that Mina wasn't noisy the other week. She had cough and everyone knows that she doesn't talk if she has cough. The problem with the rules committe is that they do not see what they're supposed to see. I know who they are and I must say that one of them should even write her own name down. She's the one who's always reprimanded in class. Biased person. Just because you're rules committee doesn't mean you're exempted. You guys are simply unbelievable!

I was shocked when I learned I wasn't listed. Mina, Sceiy, Chai, Vianne and Mikee were the only ones reprimanded and they're my Media Ed. groupmates. I wasn't the only one listed. I was even noisier than Mina! If they thought about listing Mina down, they should've thought of listing me down first! And for you, rules committee people, make sure that what you write down on the paper you pass to Ms. Kathy is true. Because right now, what I see is that you only put the names of those people you want to put. Hey, I know a lot of people noisier than Mina and Mikee, me included. Why not put me? Sheesh.

here we go again

I didn't want the English campaign, they did. And I believe I have enough reason to justify why we don't need it. As I have said, we don't even know Filipino yet. We don't even know our own language. Bakit ko naman babayaran ang pagtatagalog ko eh ito naman ang ating wika? Pagmumultahin mo ako para magsalita ng banyagang wika? Ni hindi ko pa nga kilala ang sarili kong wika.

Para tayong mga Amerikano. Nakakahiya. Sinasabi natin na sila, na mga Amerikano mismo, hindi marunong ng salitang Ingles. Pinagtatawanan pa nga natin sila 'di ba? Biruin mo, Amerikano, 'di marunong mag-ingles! Parang tayo, biruin mo, Pilipino, hindi marunong ng tamang Tagalog! Hindi na tayo nahiya sa balat natin. Pati ba naman ito kokopyahin rin natin sa mga Kano? Hindi pa ba sapat na mas magaling at mas pinagtutuunan ng pansin ang asignaturang Ingles sa eskwela kaysa sa Filipino? Eh anak naman ng tyanak, isipin niyo ngang mabuti kung saan talaga tayo mas magaling?

Eh mas tama pa nga nating nasasabi na "I am eating fish" kaysa sa "Nakain ako ng isda." Nakain ng isda? Kasya na pala tayo sa isda. Simpleng pangungusap pa nga lang hindi na natin masabi ng tama eh. Ano ba tayo? Malalansang isda? Hindi niyo kasi naiisip ang ganito. Hindi naman porke't na sa Pilipinas tayo at nagsasalita ng Tagalog eh mas magaling na tayo mag Tagalog kaysa mag Ingles.

Naaawa ako sa atin. Lagi na lang kasi nating iniisip ang mga banyagang bagay. Banyagang pananamit, pagkain, kaugalian, wika. Para ano? Para ma-impress sa atin ang mga banyaga? Uy! Ang galing ng mga Pilipino mag Ingles! Pero bano sa pagtatagalog. Wow, kamangha-mangha kasi ang ganito.
