Move On Mo Mukha Mo!

Sinasabi mong wala kang pakialam kasi di ka naman direktang apektado ng Martial Law. Eh kung gayon, tongenuh! Bakit ka pa nag-effort magpost tungkol doon? Wag kang papansin. Kung talagang wala kang pakialam, tahimik na lang. Sinasabi mong move on na kami. Eh ikaw nga nangingialam ka sa di namin pag move on, kami pa kaya na nawalan ng magulang? Tongenuh mo! Sinasabi mong magpatawad na kami. Paano magpapatawad ang taong di hiningan ng tawad? Paano magpapatawad kung patuloy na dine-deny ng mga may sala ang kanilang mga krimen? Paano magpapatawad kung maraming nagsasabing hindi totoo at hindi lehitimo ang sakit na nararamdaman namin? Tongenuh mo! Sinasabi mong legal ang nangyari. Eh tongenuh! Paano na yung pag-aresto, pambubugbog, pagkawala, at pagkamatay ng libo-libong Pilipino, ano na?! Legal ba yun?! Tongenuh! Move on kami doon pero kayo di kayo matahimik kasi ayaw namin ipalibing ang isang kriminal?! Move on kami kahit na pinatay ang mahal naminsa buhay pero kayo di kayo makapag move on dahil di malibing ang isang kriminal? PAKYU PO!!! PAYASO AMPOTAH!!! Sinasabi mong marami siyang nagawang tama at mabuti. Eh tongenuh mo! Dahil ba nakagawa ng mabuti peke na lahat ng pagnanakaw, pagkitil sa demokrasya, pagpatay, at panggago…

Langaw Daw

Una sa lahat, di ko mawari ano ang pakay mo upang mag-post ng kung anu-anong galit at poot sa mga status mo. Di na sana kita papatulan dahil di ka naman kapatol-patol. Sa totoo lang pag-aaksaya ng panahon itong ginagawa ko ngayon. Matagal na kitang kilala, pero di ka pa rin nagbabago. Sa tingin ko pag nabasa mo 'tong post ko, walang magbabago. Pero dahil nag-viral yung post mo, heto tayo ngayon. Sagarin natin ang "time to shine moment" mo. Oportunidad na rin to para sagutin lahat ng mga kagaya mo mag-isip. Gusto ko lang iklaro na sa paggamit mo pa lang ng salitang "langaw" para tukuyin ang ibang tao, talo ka na agad. Sa unang parirala pa lang, X ka na. Hindi mapaghusga ang mga tunay na matatalino at matitinong tao. Kung tama at karapatdapat pakinggan ang pahayag mo, hindi mo na dapat minaliit ang inaaway mo. Yung totoo, hindi ko alam kung sino yung mga tinutukoy mong langaw. Sa pagkakaalam ko walang baong mga langaw si President Duterte. Pero sabihin na nating sa pagbasa ng post mo, napagtanto ko na tinutukoy mo ang mga taga-Davao at Mindanao na mga media at mga staff na isinama ni President Duterte.…

The Intelligent Candidate

I don't like kicking the horse when it's down but I have been meaning to say this for months now... yung mga nagmamayabang na matalino sila kasi they supported a supposedly matalino candidate, magsaliksik kayo ng mabuti oy. Hindi dahil matalino, mabuting tao at mahusay na public servant na agad. Do you really know your candidate and his/her motivations for running? Are you familiar with everything your candidate has accomplished? Yung totoo, sinusuportahan mo kasi kilala mo at alam mong mahusay na pinuno siya o kasi gusto mo lang masabing matalino ka? Yung kandidato mo matalino. Totoo yan. Pero yung sasabihin mong matalino ka rin kasi siya sinusupotahan mo? Nakakatawa. Ginagago ka nga ng kandidato mo nang di mo nalalaman, iniisip mo pa rin na matalino ka. I'm not mocking you. But I find it sad that some of the people who I thought knew better didn't know better. And even thought they were better than the rest for supporting the "real intelligent one." OH, COME ON! Sa susunod na mga eleksyon, siguraduhing kilala mo ng lubusan mo ang kandidato mo. Behind the IQ points, beyond the bullet points on the resume. Sino ba talaga tong taong to? Ano ang…

My Journey with Team Duterte and More

The 2016 Elections and campaign has definitely brought out the best and worst in us. It has shown us our monsters and demons and it has forced us to look deep within ourselves. It has been quite a journey for me as a member of #TeamDuterte. Late last year, questions started to pour. Everywhere I went, Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao, people would ask me if Duterte would be running for President. And all I could say was "I really don't know." Fact is I really didn't know back then. Come the deadline of Filing for the Certificate of Candidacy, Duterte did not file a Certificate for Candidacy. A lot of people were disappointed. I wasn't. I was relieved. People kept the faith. May pag-asa pa raw. Ako naman umaasa na "'Wag na lang, please." My biggest problem back then was, "sino na ngayon ang susuportahan ko?" And then it happened. Duterte filed his Certificate for Candidacy as substitute to Mr Martin DiƱo. ARGH! I said to myself. What an exciting time but it also gave me much anxiety. And sometime December 2015, I was invited to a meeting. I thought it was just a meet and greet but it turned…

Alleba Politics and MLQ3

After I humiliated myself at iBlog 4 by professing my eternal love fandom for MLQ3, he invited me and several other political bloggers for a night of tete-a-tete over heart-attack inducing food at Barrio Fiesta along Wilson Avenue in Greenhills. So there I was sitting, a few feet from MLQ3 and all I could think about was how I was going to ask him to have a photo taken with me. Juned, Butch and Noemi Dado, Arbet Bernardo, Schumey, and Marck were present. We had a discussion on politics (WHAT ELSE?!), the church, current issues such as the Meralco hoopla, GMA (everybody's person), Martial Law, and federalism. I rarely spoke unless directly spoken too. I had a nosebleed I tell you! I felt so uninformed, and un-opinionated. :( The things I spoke of were mostly about Davao City and Mindanao. The dinner was very intimidating and inspiring at the same time. After it, I vowed to spend more time and effort with my political blog. And I shall not be easily frustrated with it. I hope. Oh, and we did talk about blog and bloggers chismis. HULOLZ! And after dinner, I did have my photo taken with MLQ3 c/o Fritz.…

Manila Day 9: Politics and a Rock Fest

Late start... Had sinigang and beef steak for lunch. Ate it when I woke up at 2 pm. LOL! Spent the afternoon online. Then prepared for a looong night! I was a bit early for the dinner with political bloggers so I went to Theatre Mall. Had a very delicious Iced Cafe Mocha at Starbucks, then bought a nice hair accessory. Naks naman... nagpapaka-girl. LOL! I had a hard time finding a cab from Theatre Mall, but lining up and waiting paid off. Hurrah! And the people beside me were nice so I didn't really have a bad time while waiting. Had a very interesting dinner at Barrio Fiesta along Wilson, with my idol, MLQ3, Juned, Butch and Noemi Dado, Arbet Bernardo, Schumey and Marck. We had discussions about GMA, federalism, Davao politics, the church, Martial Law, and blog chismis. LOL! I felt quite insecure but proud to be among them. ;) Had my picture with MLQ3. FINALLY! :P (To be posted later. Stupid me lost this file. :( ) Fritz happened to pass by when we were getting out of Barrio Fiesta so we walked to Bela Bar together where we met up with Kring and Poyt. The three…
