The Awakening

ah yes, its been a while since i've updated my blog. im really sorry for the lack of updates, but i've been so
lazybusy lately that i haven't had the chance to update.

so yeah, i just came back from the real world. and i have relearned some of the things that a typical working pinoy has to put up with.

one is, i actually spend more money on transportation than food. more money on coffee than food (to be discussed on the later part of the post). more money on taxes than prepaid cell cards.

with regard to economics, the fast-rising gasoline prizes can actually compete with the speed at which our local squatter's area are able to produces babies. and it makes me wonder how fishball vendors and photocopy machine operators actually survive in our country.

you see, these people only make 50centavos per piece of fishball/a page. and the prices stayed the same. even way before i have grown pubes.

who knows, fishballs may be the solution to world hunger. it's cheap, cost-effective, and we have a ready supply. for 50centavos a piece who'd grow hungry?

going back to the coffee part of the blog. there was this one time that my friends were actually able to convince me to have a cup of coffee at star bucks. i was never a fan of coffee/sweets. but yeah, they're the ones paying for it so why not?

why not have a taste of the million-dollar coffee that is famous for turning your regular pinoy idiot into an english speaking fil-am (feeling amerikano). the starbs coffee is also known for turning your typical bourgeoisie kid into a very "techie" information technology expert. with all the gadgets and laptops, it's a crazy world out there. i was actually waiting for someone to brag about his acer ferrari or his asus lamborghini laptop. sadly, not a soul there was "leet" enough to have one.

but me, i'll be waiting for some chinese electronics company to collaborate with sarao motors. who knows, in a few months i'll be mooching off star buck's wifi with a pensonic/sany sarao laptop.
