| so much has happened since my last post. and for the first time, i couldn't hide my emo-ness. usually i could pretend that nothing's going on and fake being happy. but i think things are getting better.
not knowing what's going to happen is sometimes a good thing right? i mean, i've been so used to being able to figure out what's going to happen... so i guess this is good for me. this whole situation is supposed to be good for me.
so why don't i feel good?

| i admit that i don't know shit about the filipino culture. i grew up learning about george washington, the great depression, and world war II. my parents did not sit me down and teach me filipino history everyday after school, nor
did i even find out that i was filipino until i reached elementary
school because my parents believed that your ethnicity doesn't
matter. i had no filipino club in high school, and any random
information i learned about the philippines was through word of
mouth. so when i found out that there was a "filipino club" at
fresno state, i figured "hey, here's a chance i can learn about my
culture without reading from a text book"... and what did i learn? how to TALK SHIT and play silly card games.
so before you start judging me and accusing me of being "ignorant",
take a look at yourselves and what you are doing to elevate the
"ignorance" in the world.
i played the race card, that was MY BAD. on the other hand, if
you got offended because i said "annoying, ethnic filipinos" that
probably means that you are one.
i'm pretty sure that most of you were born in america or american soil,
so that makes you FILIPINO-AMERICAN. you have to embrace that
part of your history too. so for all you CHILDREN that continue
to talk shit without knowing the full context of what i was saying...
go for it.

| thank you too all my REAL FRIENDS...
what gets me is huge population of people that i THOUGHT were friends are nothing more than just aquaintences. it's just a shame that after a few years of knowing each other, you are just another bullshit friend.
i
don't know what's the deal with me. lately i've just been a down
mood. no wait... more like an irritated mood. the current irritation
of choice is annoying, ethnic filipinos. i remember when i was in high
school, i was sooooo patient, and soooooo passive, and soooooo ....
push over status. at the moment all i feel is bitterness because there
are duuummmbb ass people that i don't want to have the time to be
patient for.
i need to get out.

| as
of yesterday, i'm FINALLY 21! it kinda sucked that today was my
first day of school, but oh well. i got a lot of belated birthday
wishes, which was pretty nice. soo last night i had my birthday
dinner at TGIFriday's with nido, the roomies [minus eileen], and a
bunch of friends. i think that was the first time that my
filipino friends actually were at the same social function as mine
& nido's other friends. a lot of segregation going
on.....hopefully at my birthday party on saturday it won't be like that.
it's a little weird that the picture on my driver's license is on the
left side now. no restrictions. a little older. i
don't feel any older.
