The Igorot-haters! v2
The haters story is back.
Our Isabela-girls housemates call the haters "Peanut Brittle" [man] and "Goldilocks" [woman]. "Peanut brittle" because the man is bald, bald=panut, panutsa=local peanut brittle, hahaha, nice one ey! "Goldilocks" because of the woman's kinky hair; sometimes she is also labeled as "Thunder" for when she shouts, it's so loud.
Few days back my girlfriend and the Igorot-haters had a heated argument, no physical injuries though. My girl heard them haters threw piercing words to us again, it's damn obvious that they were pertaining to us; well we are the only Igorot-blooded in that house so there's no reason they would deny. But they denied they were talking about us during the confrontation. Fools.
Once again they kept on shouting that the Igorots are dumb, low-class people and that they have more money than us. They have better foods to eat; better clothes to wear. I pity them. I know a lot of rich people and they don't even say those kind of things, they are just humble. I just told myself, "kawawa naman sila" for they don't know what they were talking about. Maybe they don't have 'mirrors' to look themselves at. They just don't know what they were saying; they don't even think before they shoot those claims. Back then I just told my girl to calm down and just don't talk to them anymore, they are not worth our time. God bless the haters.

The Igorot-haters!
If you're an Igorot what would you feel (and what would you do) if you heard someone say, "mga bobo kayong mga igorot, mga walang pinag-aralan" without any reason; and that someone is just around the corner?
It's really annoying when you hear somebody saying something bad about your race or let's just say the place where you came from. It will make you wanna' confront that person and stab him/her with piercing trash talks. Ouch!
This is rather a short story about this thing that me and my girl had experienced; in fact, we are currently experiencing it.
We have these neighbors, they are Ilocanos, who believed that they have the best family in the whole world; also they believed that the Igorots are the dirtiest and dumbest people. Such a description.
This is not about war-of-races; this is not to disgrace the two races (Igorot and Ilocano) as well. This is, I believe, a war between that family (the Igorot-haters) and their belief. A war between themselves alone.
According to wikipedia.org the Ilocano people are characterized as being hardworking and frugal, and they engage primarily in farming and fishing. The Ilocano culture represents very simple, sometimes spartan day-to-day living, focusing mostly on work and productivity, spending only on necessities and not on so much on ostentatious material possessions. Ilocanos also exemplify a great degree of respect and humility in their everyday dealings, much similar to their Tagalog counterparts.
Well it would be a good thing if one of the descriptions above fits the Igorot-haters, so bad not even one could be right for them.
I have a 25% Igorot blood, the other part makes me a Kalinga. My girlfriend is half-Igorot and I know she is proud to be one. We are both proud to be.
Exactly about a year ago we relocated to this place recommended by the sister of my girlfriend; she had an information that this place would be very comfortable for us. Also from this place there would be an easy access to almost all; like the market, grocery stores, malls, hospital, restaurants, etc. So we decided to pick the place; it's located somewhere in Sampaloc, Manila. It's an old 2-storey house; it has four rooms in the second-floor and a room downstairs. Three rooms upstairs are occupied now, 2 of them are occupied by friendly girls from Isabela. The only room at the ground-floor was occupied by the haters; they claimed they've been there for about 20 years now. Hmmm, I wonder why no tenants up-stairs are lasting for more than 2 years.

A Prayer (Banao Tribe)
I've seen a video of this prayer in Youtube and it is really touching.
Sika jit nanjayjayawan jajit manakom mi
Sika jit nanvantay kabayatan un siviviyag pay laeng jajit A-ammami
Sika nagtod si laing sijajit A-appomi un siya jit gapu na un kaawad mi sin saton un al-algaw
Sin saton un algaw, jawaton mi kan sika un ipatawid nu kan jakami jit sirib kan laing
Un kama met laeng sijit panangipatawid nu sijajit manakom mi
Tapno sinsaton un kaawad mi ket manballigi para si manpiya-an ton Vanao(Banao) un ili mi.
Kama met laeng un jawatun mi un bendisyonam amin jajit ganakmi
Iti kasta ket itultuloy ja ton napintas un panggopmi un aamma ja.
Namnamami un gapu si panangtarabay nu ket matago ja un manjayjayaw si kinamannakabalin nu.
Kama met laeng un magangpot ton gapun ji kaawad mi sin saton
Namnamami un awad jajit angheles nu un mansalaknib kan jakami nu kawad man ji manturungan ji dalan mi.
Siya jato amin ton jawat mi Apo Kabunyan ot namnamaon mi un itod nu kan jakami gapu ta ma-id savalin langtay nu aji si Jesu Kristo un Anak nu kan Apo mi. Amen.

Will the Circle be Unbroken
The first time I've heard this song was 5 years ago, during my mom's funeral. I've heard it again when I was watching the movie Soloist. Simply nice and touching.
Will the Circle be Unbroken
I was standing by my window
On a cold and cloudy day
When I saw that hearse come rolling
For to carry my mother away
(chorus)
Will the circle be unbroken
By and by, Lord, by and by
There's a better home awaiting
In the sky, Lord, in the sky
(break)
Well I told the undertaker
Undertaker please drive slow
For the body that you are hauling
Lord, I hate to see her go
chorus
(break)
Well I followed close behind her
Tried to hold up and be brave
But I could not hide my sorrow
When they laid her in her grave
chorus
(break)
Went back home, Lord, oh so lonesome
Since my mother she was gone
All my brothers, sisters crying
What a home so sad and 'lone
chorus

22 Shots to be fired
With the death of the former president Cory Aquino the entire nation is mourning. The person considered as the "Mother of Democracy" passed away with a colon cancer resulting to multiple organ failure.
Will this spark something for our country? Something that could change the nation? Can you smell something?
I believe there will be 22 shots to be fired on the "21 Gun Salute". Be ready.

Dragonfly
I don't know why this movie came to my mind again after several years.
This movie was released on the year 2002 and I wanted to watch it on the big screen; unfortunately I was not able to. I told myself to buy a DVD copy of the movie instead, again I was not able to.
I've seen the trailers, read the reviews, and heard comments for the movie and those made me somewhat desperate to watch it. Seven years of waiting for something to happen. I know the movie is good. It's about belief, family and love ones. Dragonfly is a supernatural thriller about a man who believes that his deceased wife is trying to communicate with him through the near-death experiences of her patients. Well that's what the reviews are saying. Hehehe!
Help! Can somebody help me get a copy of the movie. Your help will be greatly appreciated.

Medical City.. again..
I've put on my last post an information about the young actress Angelica Panganiban being rushed to Medical City due to abdominal pain and discomfort and after some diagnosis the doctors claimed that it is more on her (Ms. Panganiban) appendix.
However, after a day of staying there in the hospital another series of tests had been done and now the doctors had retracted their previous claim about possible appendicitis and now they are saying that the actress' appendix is clear and OK.
How about that?
How come that Medical City had done that to Ms. Panganiban and not to Ms. Caluza?

Robbery | Murder | Greed | Reputation (cont.)
After numerous diagnosis and medicines, the doctors decided to do operation again. This time they are going to check her digestive system. So she and the family decided to comply. She was operated.
They were able to see that her intestines failed.
The doctors claimed they were able to clean and removed dirt from Roseville's intestines. The family was informed that she's going to be fine and she should recover soon. False hope.
After several hours my friend's system begun to weaken. She tried to fight for her life. She tried...
What happened to the 'best' doctors of Medical City?
What happened to their expensive and hi-tech medical machines?
What happened to Roseville?
Something could have been done if, at the first place, the endoscopy procedure being requested by Roseville was considered by the doctors. It's her instinct; but denied. Poor Roseville.
The reputation of Medical City as a good institution is still there because it is being covered by their facilities, by their high-rising buildings. But here's what can I say, why not try to check their mortality rate?
The latest one that I know is the "Master Rapper" Francis Magalona. You know one thing I've observed, the C.O.D (cause-of-death) of Francis M. and Roseville is somewhat close to the same; 'multiple organ malfunction'. Whatta!
Well, I have to end this now but before I'll do that I want to share a news that I've watched last night. The young actress Angelica Panganiban was rushed to (guess what?) Medical City for she was feeling pain and discomfort on her abdominal part. What Ms. Panganiban thought is that it is just a Dysmenorrhea but after several tests and diagnosis the doctors from Medical City ruled that, 80% sure, it is her appendix that is having a problem.
And that was all they wrote.

Robbery | Murder | Greed | Reputation
Days had passed and still seems like my mind is being bothered. By what?
I dunno, maybe a death of a friend; a death of a Filipino artist; or more death to come. Whatta! What am I thinking? I dunno why, now, I am hearing a lot of things being thrown against the Medical City; the institution, I once knew, that is one of the best in the country.
It all started when Roseville passed away.
I really don't want to write about her experience in Medical City. I really don't want to say anything about how she died. I really don't want to write about how she'd fought her illness. I really don't want to... Then what am I gonna do?
Am I going to keep my mouth shut about what happened to our friend? Am I going to keep my eyes close pretending that we don't seeing anything wrong?
Well, now I want to talk.
The Medical City (MedCity) is being tagged as one of the best hospitals in the country. They kept their reputation very well. And they still are.
A few weeks back, my friend went to MedCity for checkup because she can hardly tolerate the pain she's feeling from her stomach; she's claiming it to be Gastric Ulcer. However, about 4 doctors from MedCity told her that it is an Acute Appendicitis and that it will be better for her that she will go under operation.
Roseville told me that she had requested for endoscopy first before any operation for she believed that it's not her appendix that is having a problem, but the doctors insisted that they are sure about their diagnosis. Well, Roseville is not a doctor nor a nurse so she had trusted those specialists.
Operation was done.
Hours after the operation, Roseville was rather in good condition, she was standing and walking already. Seeing what they believed a good sign of their successful operation, the doctors informed my friend that she can go home anytime. Well she did chose to be discharged for she doesn't want her hospital bill to rocket up.
Now the question is, why did the doctors let her go out without hospital recovery? I mean, she didn't spend 24 hours in the hospital to recover. And one more thing, she was given just pain-killer medicines not anti-biotics. Whatta?!
What happened to your medical expertise you... &*^#?!
Few days after the operation, my friend felt sick again. I was informed by her housemate that she'd been in a fever and was chilling. She even asked me to go to their apartment for her housemate will be going to work and that she doesn't have anybody there to accompany her. (By the way, Roseville was my housemate before for more than a year.)
She was rushed to MedCity (again) for she had already fainted.
Back in the hospital, the doctors still held to their previous diagnosis. We kept on asking the doctor-in-charge and the nurses about what may have caused her chilling, fever, and her faint experience. They couldn't answer.
We asked them again if it could be a possible internal hemorrhage. They couldn't answer. They were in denial.
Medicines were given to her. IV fluids injected to her blood vessels. Machines were used to verify her illness. Money being extracted. Still no result.
One doctor claimed Urinary Tract Infection (UTI). Whatta?!
What's that, a legal robbery? (This is a robbery but we have to operate you first!)
Roseville was again discharged after then.
At home, she rested hoping she will recover; get better and go back to work to earn for a living. She failed to report to work.
She was rushed again to MedCity for she's feeling worse already. She was vomiting. She was so sick.
After numerous diagnosis and medicines, the doctors decided to do operation again. This time they are going to check her digestive system. So she and the family decided to comply. She was operated.
They were able to see that her intestines failed.

Musika irita...
Di ko alam kung bakit nagiging ganito na naman ako, nagiging radical. Lahat na lang ng alam ko na mali, alam ko na di dapat, ay aking sinisita at binibigyan komento.
Araw-araw pagpasok ko dito sa opisina ay may tinutugtog na musika, dati'y masarap pakinggan; napapasabay ang padyak sa tunog. Subalit ngayo'y parang nakaka-irita na; nagiging masakit na sa tenga ang mga musikang ito. Parang paulit-ulit lang. Nakakabored na ika nga. Nagsimula etong lahat mga ilang araw na ang nakakalipas. Ewan ko ba dito sa opisina; hindi na work and fun... work and work na lang. Kahit pilit panatilihin ang fun ay mahirap; nahihirapan 'di lang ako, pansin ko rin eto sa mga kasama ko dito sa trabaho.
Ahh.. basta ang musika ay nakaka-irita na.
