Kansai Lovin'!!!

Tue, 30 Dec 2008 15:57:29 GMT

Yappari, Kansai ga sukiyanen!
(^___________________________________________^)

And there's nothing more special than celebrating the New Year with a Kansai-themed party. =)

It's been in the back of our innocent (?!) minds all this time, waiting for some miraculously-free time to arrive for us to be able to push through with it.

Well, ladies, I'm guessing that the time has finally arrived. =)

KANSAI PARTY THIS FRIDAY, JANUARY 2!!!!!
(^__________________________________^)

We've been partying up north most of the time. It's about time that we go celebrate with the South!

Party will be at Fukuya Restaurant, Festival Supermall, Alabang. 1PM is the designated meeting time at the Carousel area (Pixie Forest).

Anyone up for some Kansai partying??  =)

Leave a comment here if interested, or text Tina (09175052423) or Pao (09178464909) for more details. Make sure to indicate your name with your message so we can properly acknowledge you. =)

Everyone is welcome, ne! Bring whatever stuffs you want to share (or gloat) to others, ne!  It'll be one whole afternoon of bonding galore.

ほんまかいなぁ？！　ほんまや！　関西が好きやねん！

TO ALL MY FRIENDS.

THIS IS WHY THE PHILIPPINE GOVERNMENT IS NOT WORTH ANY RESPECT.

With all due respect, I ask ALL YOU PEOPLE to post this in your blogs, sites, and basically anywhere else in the internet. Tell your friends to do the same. Make sure to flood all websites to at least a link to this screencap, and let everyone including yourself take time to read this post from a friend of a friend. I'm sure that all of you guys would agree that THIS IS NOT HOW A POLITICIAN SHOULD ACT. Imagine if your country is run by these hooligans.

We are all together in the fight for justice. We're not asking for anything except for all your support. The Philippine Government should act on this. But then again, they are not worth my trust anymore so I shall let the Filipino community take a stand on this matter.

IMAGINE IF THIS HAPPENS TO YOUR FAMILY. WHAT WOULD YOU DO?

Now, don't go barraging me with stupid retaliations on my angsty post. READ BEFORE COMMENT. I DON'T GIVE A FUCK IF I'M GENERALIZING ABOUT THE PHILIPPINE GOVERNMENT RIGHT NOW AND THAT I'M BEING TOTALLY UN-NATIONALISTIC WITH THIS RANT, BUT I THINK I'M BEING MORE NATIONALISTIC WHEN I'M DOING THIS EYE-OPENER OF A POST IN THE GOAL OF HELPING MY BELOVED FILIPINOS. This is totally something not to put a blind eye on. This is insanity at its best.

And it's because of this that I lack my initial desire to post a happy blog entry.

SCREW PHILIPPINE GOVERNMENT. Note: GOVERNMENT. I LOVE THE PHILIPPINES. FUCK YOU IF YOU SAY I HATE MY COUNTRY.

Read the actual entry here.

*edit* Well apparently, this news has already gotten to the media here and here. And wow. Look what they sniffed upon.

Meanwhile, GMANews.TV learned that Pangandaman Jr has filed a counter-complaint against his accuser at the police station in Mayamot, Antipolo.

Bastard, I know.

What do you say about that?

Will you just stand and watch?

Contract from Hell

Fri, 15 Dec 2006 15:24:04 GMT

It's like being bound to a leash that you just can't take off. That no matter how hard you try to think that it's already not there, it stays there tied around your neck, suffocating you to non-existence. The only thing that you can do - I can do - is be scared, and count the days 'til the death note hase been signed with your name.

I still wonder how long I'm gonna last that I sometimes wish that I just drop dead any second now. Forget the fact that school's already out 'cause the work just keeps on coming one after the other, that I sometimes forget the fact that I am still a student and not a full-time corporate official. The output's definitely rewarding but the life expectancy that I get seems to be getting shorter hahaha. I'm tired, definitely tired, but despite all that I still want to hold on to things... Stupid me for making my life this rewarding. Wonderful things come with a hefty price, after all.

I just don't like to see the things I gave my life to, broken. But then again that's the price that you pay for being stupid in the first place.

Mental suicide monologue

Mon, 11 Dec 2006 14:07:38 GMT

The pressure's just killing me. Two exams coming with my head still filled with the mumbo-jumbo of everything that goes on with my oh-so-busy life that it really makes me wonder if I can still hold on to keep smooth sailin' on my majors. There's just so many things to do that sometimes I already have no idea on what I am doing with my life that's so effing wild that it feels as if I am on a runaway roller coaster heading straight down to hell... And even when there's practically nothing to do on a certain day that is so unusual it feels as if there is so many things to do, and of course it bugs me the whole day thinking, panicking on what I am supposed to do when actually there's none... But when I already thought that there was actually none that I need to do I realize that there is something that I was actually supposed to do but it is now too late because I'm sleepy and cranky and I have to wake up early the next morning 'cause I have class and it takes me two hours to travel from home to class, but there's no choice but to do what I have to do 'cause it's due the next morning, which really sucks because the day has just been put to waste with pointless thinking and panicking, but come to think of it it was not totally pointless 'cause there was really something to panic about.

I'm wishing half-wishing that I can finally take a break from everything. From school, from work, from commitments, requirements, assignments, and responsibilities that takes forever to list on paper. It's nerve-wrecking, I'm losing my mind, and now I am starting to hate Organic Chemistry which I really love but now I hate because it makes me mental... But don't get me wrong I still love Chem it's just the pressure's just killing me.

Everything's killing me that even I would like to kill myself.

Is this the beginning of our last dance?

Sun, 26 Nov 2006 14:27:40 GMT

I want to cry but the tears just won't come out. This could probably be the hardest week that I shall ever encounter, but I am not to lose hope. I feel that no matter how hard everything could possibly be in the next few days I should take courage and take advantage of this opportunity. I don't actually know what could happen to me, but I think everythings all for good. I trust them that they are bearing in mind my safety and humanity, and they are not one to defy.

It's just so that I am now fully afraid, I don't know what to do, but I have decided to keep mum about everything 'cause I feel that many people whom I love would be somewhat against it.

Note to all: this is not something illegal, mind you.

I texted someone dear to me to lessen my fear a bit, so shake off some of this feeling of anxiety. She didn't reply. But I guess it's all for the good, 'cause if she did, I wouldn't know what to do.

I love all those people around me - my family, friends, colleagues. I just don't know how to tell them, maybe because I'm scared. But what is it that is to be scared of? Any moment in time one dies instantly, most likely at the most unexpected of times, and knowing that not a single second should be wasted. Still, I remain scared, fearful of telling my emotions, continuing to hide what I truly want to say.

And I still can't find the courage to tell even in the midst of the risk that I shall partake.

I love you all.

The things that I hate... and loving it.

Sun, 19 Nov 2006 10:33:22 GMT

1. Manny Pacquiao
Sure, he whips out those hard-hitting punches that brings opponents down to kingdom come, but he's such a big fat-ass. I mean, come on, little less on the ego levels, ne? It's bad enough that you can see his physically-distorted face every single bit of commercial on tv, but now he feels confident enough to run for office in Manila. Puhlease, enough of you.

The good thing, though, is that whenever he's on a bout, traffic goes down 99.9%, corruption and crime rates goes down to zero, and malls become near empty. Or maybe I am exaggerating. But hey, it's a wonderful sight.

Have him battle every single day and we could have a wonderful, peaceful country.

2. Time Pressure
Of course I shall always enjoy the thrill of having to work under pressure while juggling acads and fam and orgs and other responsibilities practically known to man, but don't you just hate it when it's getting over the edge? Like organizing a week-long affair and a concert from scratch in just the span of two weeks? Suicidal major.

Still, the thought of the comeback after the event does gives the drive.

3. Teachers and/or Professors
It's kind of like a mutual thing - students hate their teachers, teachers give students hard time, and by the time we graduate we realize that we were actually smarter than our teachers and we immediately plot a payback. Of course this does have its exceptions as not all teachers follow suit with the others, as I can't deny I also have teachers whom I find myself in awe at.

Sir Bañares you rock big time!

4. Emergency Appointments
Don't you just hate it when you have everything already planned to the smallest detail then out of the blue someone suddenly announces that you have to attend an emergency meeting? And this is not just any other meeting 'cause by the time you're there hoping it gets finished in an hour or so so you can still catch up on the thing you already scheduled eons ago you suddenly realize that this meeting will go on and on and on and on ad infinitum until the wee hours of early morning, which definitely means that catching up to that scheduled affair is practically and definitely impossible? Not to mention that this meeting wouldn't allow you to have yosi breaks in between?

Aiiieee, que horror.

5. Burial, Funeral and the Ceremonies
I just hate it when I have to go to a libing, or shall I say a burial ceremony. It doesn't give me the creeps, mind you, I just hate the vibes that come with it. Wala lang.

Though I love seeing people wear black. Haha.

Chem na uli ako!!!

Fri, 03 Nov 2006 13:49:53 GMT

It took me weeks of blood, sweat, tears, and other bodily fluids known to man, but at least all's already finished. I'm officially back in the Institute and now no one can stop me in my goal for world domination!!! Bwahahahahaha!!!

Kidding aside, yes it took me tons of work to push it but in the end everything went okay. Got readmitted into the Institute of Chemistry as a BS Chem major and as of 2:00pm this day I was officially placed under regular status. Haha thank you Lord!^^ Which meant that I won't be having any more troubles with enrolment by Monday. Hehe =)

Another wonderful thing is that I was called to get my registration materials this Monday 10AM when regular students in my year level are supposed to enlist only starting Tuesday. Hehehehehe *evil grin*

I'm just plain effing happy. Hope everything goes well from now. =)

Absolutely wonderful.

Mon, 30 Oct 2006 09:22:02 GMT

My sister Trish and I went to this fundraising concert bit that our High School had last Saturday. Wonderful, I thought - I envisioned seeing a concert being finished by 9PM, knowing how yuppie our school could be.

We arrived there around 5PM, and a few minutes after we arrived, the concert started. Of course, I enjoyed it. Or at least I tried to. Seeing old acquaintances (yes, I never gotten myself used to recognizing my old High School batchmates as more than mere "acquaintances", so let's leave it as that) always never bring me to a good mood, much more seeing the old school with the old teachers and the, uhm... ancient? (i dare to put them all in context) nuns. The horrifying memories of the four years you spent with those people always give me the nightmares.

Okay, so I was never sociable when I was a kid. I had a few selected friends, which even until now turns out to be some of the best one's ever gonna have, and that I couldn't care less. The night of the concert, I saw a lot of acquaintances, and of course I only could care less. At times I tried to be at least sociable - by that I mean having to smile at a person calling my name about a variable of meters away, and walking far from the person a second after. Yes, I never was the least sociable when I was a kid, and for their sake that should remain as that.

Imago and Sandwich were the major bands for the night. For the whole concert, I enjoyed studying the Philippine Constitution. Trish and her friend Jackie the Vampire Slayer was screaming their lungs out for Aia and the gang, that is until a nun passed by in front of them. "That settles it, I really won't be able to sleep tonight," Jackie said. "Why's that?" "I'll be having nightmares for the rest of the night, and even the memory of Aia's dance wouldn't help." We laughed.

The night was fun. Food, music, people - okay, so with the exception of the people, everything was great. The night was young, and we partied.

And the concert went on until a few minutes past 9PM.

Whispers of the Night

You'd always know that I'm on vacation when I'm sick. Haha.

It started last summer when I got effing sick the whole two (yes, TWO) weeks of my vacation - so much for our fam trip to Leyte and Cebu, wasn't able to enjoy that because of it haha. And now here we go again, the moment that I got to realize that I can now safely sleep the whole day without thinking of paperworks to finish, that's when the relentless flu kicks in. Wooh boy.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------
There's a thing with bumming around the house the whole day that annoys me. I feel like I'm gaining weight again haha. My aunt's already left for America yesterday and maygad the house is filled with food from all those shopping and shit, and of course that's gonna be a big problem (and if I mean big, I DO MEAN BIG). I need to lose weight badly, unfortunately the availability of gyms here in our area seems to be too low, and if there ever was one, my pocket wouldn't permit. Haha these are the times that I really miss PE class (Weight Training - lost 10 pounds, now I'm gaining it again haha whut). Any suggestions for an cheap and accessible gym within Paranaque-Las Pinas area, or an easy way of losing weight (without having to be a bulimic moron), please do tell.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Let me congratulate the newly inducted members of UP Tomo-Kai for surviving the inductions! *whoops* haha おめでとう　みんな！ Magsisisi kayo haha lol.

See you guys next sem! Though I'm still thinking if I'm gonna renew membership next sem... Being up for 21 units would most likely not to permit org activities by then. Haay...

-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Had a long hectic weekend. Saturday meant breakfast with the fam at Tagaytay (woohoo!) at a wee early hour, which also meant me having to wear my new long-sleeved shirt to ease the cold haha. T'was fun lounging around Tagaytay again in this cold Christmas-ey morning with the fam haha. Anyway after that I headed to Enchanted Kingdom for the whole day affair with the gang.

Met up with Adette, Rach hatinggabi, and Carol chiare at the entrance. Went to ride the Dodgem and the Roller Coaster first to get us shaken, then headed to ride the Anchors Away after. Got slightly sick with the Balloon ride thingy (haha). Ate fried rice and pizza and drank coke (extreme barf diet haha). Went to Rio Grande where Adette and I got soaking wet haha. Dried off at the Ferris Wheel, and partied with the NU peepz for the Party Monsters on the Loose event. Sweet.

We left the park around 10pm and headed to 6Underground Makati for the Sonic Boom event. Met with the rest of the gang, hung out for a bit, then left. Arrived home at exactly 12am, ate massive dinner, then slept.

*more to come*

Contemplating.

In other news...

------------------------------------------------------------------------
For once after 873257829378923705239 years I got to stay home with the fam and most especially with my Tita Marnet who's about to return to America this Sunday morning. Really didn't have time to spend together with them guys being so busy with acads and shit and I at least owe her some getting to know time just before she leaves. So imagine the thought of not having spent any spare time together with her after not having seen her for almost a decade. Anyway today at least I got to hang around with her for one whole day, going shopping for shoes and pasalubongs and shit, stuffed ourselves with food and all that. It was fun, really, but I still feel as if it was just not enough...

A decade long lost only to be filled by one single day of bonding shit... Gawd, I really need a life.

Tomorrow before I leave for EK we will be having breakfast at Tagaytay early morning. Cold breeze, nice view, everything. Hope everything goes well tomorrow.

In any case, I'm still thankful that I got the time to be with her today... Got new shoes at least ^^ so yeah, thanks tita Marnet!!! =)

Helluva day tomorrow... Hope everything goes well. EK in the morning, 6UG at night, tita Marnet's flight at 6:30am Sunday morn. Do hope everything goes well.

13の金曜日におめでとう、みんな！＾＾

良かった！はは

Went to UP this afternoon for some things to do. Hung out at TK tambayan, which was good, then passed by the Chem Institute to try to get some info about the Waste Disposal Facility they'd been contacting. Unfortunately (again...), Prof. Castriciones was already out that time so yeah, didn't get what I had to get haha. So not letting my trip be a total waste, I decided to check if our grades are already available. They are, actually, and here's what I got:

Chem 28: 2.50 (exempted sa finals)
Chem 28.1: 2.00
Chem 33.1: 1.75

So imagine my joy right now. Majors!!! Let me remind that passing in UP is 3.0, highest is 1.0, failing is 5.0. And lowest that I got is 2.50! Woohoo!!! Haha

Chem 33 grades will still be out after our finals, but according to my prof I already have a passing grade, so ayun. Yay for me!

With me having been exempted to my Chem 28 Finals exam, only one exam is left for me next week. Haha! Love it love it.

Oooh I just love Friday the 13th.

Happy Friday the 13th, y'all.

happy... ^^

At long last... Sembreak. Ampotsa ano 'to?! Haha. Seems as if I've never gotten to have one in years.

It's been a while since I've really gotten myself to have a break (...Have a KitKat haha langya corny). Being busy with papers, theses, exams, and whatever really made a toll on me and it's good that I can get to have my life back after such a long time haha. Slowly I'm trying to get back on my past indulgences - medyo awkward nga eh when I posted sa Dicta ML after such a long time haha. I still don't feel like I've already gotten my life back, but hey, it's a start. =)

This morning I gave a lecture at my old High School for, of all people, High School and Elementary science teachers. Kamustanamaniyown?! Haha felt really weird giving a lecture to my former science teachers and to new ones. Feeling prof na ba? Haha eeew. Our topic for today: Laboratory Safety and Waste Management. Ngark. So weird...

Oh well. Kumita din naman ako dahil dun haha *ssssshhhh...*

Anyway so what's up with everyone na? Haha grabe felt like forever akong nawala sa circulation sa mga tao. Haha.

*more to come when I really get back my sanity

Deadly insomnia

Tue, 03 Oct 2006 03:35:13 GMT

Formal report down, 2 more requirements to go. Pota. Two days goin' with only one hour of sleep is starting to get to me. And I still have to write my term paper *slash* thesis from scratch and finish it just in time for tomorrow's deadline. Argh!!!

Oh. And after that I still have to edit music and the powerpoint presentation for our project defense on Friday. So many things to do, so little time. With only a fraction of my brain left to function further.

Ayoko na... I need a break. Whatever that is.

Backlogged

Sun, 01 Oct 2006 14:27:47 GMT

Brownout for 4 effing days results to major backlog. Pota. Four major papers on major rush in a short span of time. Gawd, my head hurts.

And tomorrow's my final exam in Organic Chem lab, and I haven't even started studying. Pucha have mercy!!!!!

Mamamatay na ako in a few days' time.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------
*seriously solemn mode* Condolence to my 2nd cousin Clark Kenneth J. Pescasio, who died last September 27, 2006 due to an asthma attack. He was 12 years old when he died. His body now rests at Loyola Memorial Park in Paranaque City.

He celebrates his birthday today, October 1. Happy birthday, little bro. May you enjoy life with the Creator from now on.

Natawa na lang ako...

Kabaliwan ng Utak Ulol

Sun, 24 Sep 2006 08:24:55 GMT

Tag-ulan. Pumapatak na naman ang mga luha ng Ina. Haay buhay, kailan ba ito matatapos?

Kay daming kailangang gawin, nguni't nagawa ko pa ring magsingit ng ilang oras para tumingin ng mga liham sa Internet, sumagot ng mga sarbey sa Friendster, makipag-chikahan sa Yahoo! Messenger sa kabila ng Status ko na "Busy", at mag-update ng LJ. Hindi pinapansin na sa bawat minutong ginugugol ko sa kabaliwan, maraming oras ang nasasayang, maraming proyektong hindi nagagawa, maraming reports ang hindi natatapos, maraming taong naghihirap, humihirap, namamatay, pinapatay. Pero ito pa rin ako, sagot lang nang sagot, chika lang nang chika, echos nang echos hanggang sa magsawa sa kabaliwan.

Haay buhay, kay hirap mo talaga pakisamahan.

Kay dilim na naman ng kalangitan. Ako eto, nababalisa sa tuwing makakakita ng senyales ng ulan. Kay lamig, kay sarap maupo sa tabi, magsindi ng yosi at magmuni-muni sa kawalan. Nguni't hindi pwede, sapagkat kay dami pang kelangan gawin. Tama ba naman kasing ibenta na ang kaluluwa?

Wag mag-alala. Sisikat din muli ang ating araw.

Sa ngayon ituloy na lang ang dapat tapusin. Magsindi ng yosi at ibitin ang sarili nang matauhan.

"Matuto kang makisayaw sa kanta." - Madame Loca, "Twilight Dancers"

It was righteously unexpected. Ja invited us to watch the special red carpet premiere of "Twilight Dancers", which of course I was hesitant to commit to because it was mainly about macho dancers, which is of course not my caliber of interest (unless if you count the fact that Jo and I enjoy pole-dancing like any other macho guy wahahahaha!). One thing led to another, and the next thing I knew, I was sitting in a cinema packed with ladies and, well, you know. Aaaaiieee, kaloka!!!

Turned out it was a rather interesting movie. =)

Look at it in an educational perspective and you'll understand why. "Twilight Dancers" may be filled with macho dancers (and the rear nudity, the frontal semi-nudity safe from MTRCB censorships due to short linens draped in front of their, erhm, stiff(?!) crotches, and the sex scenes ahehehe), but it speaks more than that. This is one of those Filipino movies with a socially and politically-relevant theme at hand, which can only be beautifully and creatively relayed through the lives of the people who makes the Philippines well-sought for in the world - hustlers and sex slaves. Oh yes, Philippines live on incomes generated from the Sex Trade.

Screw OFWs. Prostitution marks 1st in the top income-generating industries of the country.

So what's the movie all about? Illegal trade. Corruption. Political killings. Workers' Unions. Sex trade. Immoralities made moral. Almost everything that is rampant in our country that people try to deny, or are really not aware of, though I doubt. This is Filipino society with its rawest stench. And it's best to point out through a movie everyone would surely criticize. I can already see the Church squeaming on their seats for such immorality (I can think of a better term than immorality, but my High School alma mater would probably then count me as an atheist).

My verdict? Watch the movie. Get out of those machismo shells, boys, and see the other side (though I must admit nahirapan din ako dito haha). This is surely something truly worth watching.

Bangag bangag bangag

Ang Kapanganakan ni Ken San Pedro
by Paolo Cruz

Isinilang sa mundo ng pahamak. Walang saplot, sandaang salot na napanlilibot sa kanayunan ang pagkatyaga-tyagang iniwasan ng inang magulang sa araw ng Agosto 9. Ang ama'y patay na, nahuli ng guardia imperyal sa sagupaan sa lupain ng ilustradong panginoong maylupa. Napagkamalan, bandido kuno, kasapi sa rebolusyonaryong kilusan. Binaril, nabaril, patay. Nguni't damdami'y muling nabuhay sa anak niyang nasilang sa mundo ng api.

Abuso sa mahihirap. Mahihirap na lalong humihirap sa patuloy na pahirap sa kanila ng burukrata-kapitalistang papet ng dayuhang imperyal. Mga tao'y nabulag na sa kanilang pakitang-gilas na kabaitan, hindi alam na sa bawat segundo, bawat minutong lumipas sa orasan ng buhay ang kanilang lahi'y pinapatay na ng kanilang bayaning ulol. Ang gobyernong siyang dapat na tagapagtanggol ng madla'y siyang naging tuta ng dayuhang imperyal - kay tanga namang mga mamamayan, kumagat sa palabas na siyang sisira sa kanilang mismong kinabukasan.

Ang bata'y nasilang sa bayang sawsaw sa dugong umaalingasaw ng patuloy na pang-aapi. Pinangalanan sa Dune at sa kalahing Hapon. Ken Dionisio Lumbera-San Pedro. Ang musika't literatura'y dumadaloy sa mga ugat. Panatilihin, ito'y iyo na, sandata para sa nababantang rebolusyon ng mamamayang Pilipino.

Ibukas ang mata, bata, at tignan ang katotohanan sa likod ng palabas. Mag-aral, mag-aral ng mag-aral hanggang sa magsawa sa kaka-aral, ngunit alamin din ang siyang dapat aralin. Kay ganda ng pangakong handog, nguni't huwag kalimutan ang sariling siyang iminumolde ng mga anghel ng demonyo upang maging ganap na dayuhan sa sariling bayan. Kapit lang, bata, kapit lang sa bisig ng Inang Bayang unti-unting ginagapos ng mersenaryong bakal, at huwag magpabulag sa mala-gintong bestidang suot ng kalaban. Ginto nga yon, tama ka, gintong pag-aari ng Inang kanyang iginapos - pag-aari mo na din, dahil pinapatay na ang Ina mong mahal. Ikaw ang tagamana ng kayamanan Niyang sakdal. Dapat.

Wala nang atrasan. Ang buhay mo'y nasa iyong mga munting kamay na. Huwag hayaang mamatay ang apoy bestal na bumubuhay sa Inang Minamahal. Iniregalo Niya ito sa iyo, ang kwintas na Kanyang isinabit sa puso mong kay linis. Huwag hayaang madumihan, ang anting-anting ng iyong lahi'y huwag ipasakamay sa mersenaryong ulol. Dahil hanggang patuloy na nasa Iyo ito, ang diwa ng iyong pagkabuhay ay mananatiling buhay, dugo ng Inang Bayan patuloy na dadaloy sa kamalayan mo. Ilagay ang sarili sa unang hanay sa sagupaan, at hayaang ika'y galusin ng mga sundalo ng imperyal. Ang mga sugat mo'y magiging simbolo ng pag-asa, pukawin ang damdamin ng madla, at lumaban. Sagipin mo ang iyong Ina. Bumabaha na ang Kanyang luha.

Hawak na sa kris mong basbas, at punta na sa unang hanay ng labanan. Panatilihing buhay ang alaala ng himig ng kundimang kanta ng iyong nuno, at ihatid ang musika't literatura sa lahat. Laban na, bata. Ang rebolusyo'y nagsimula na.
