Blog Event of the Month: do they ever get tired of going up?

as the start of the new school year approaches, it is not questionable that there will be more students out of school. it's due because a percentage of the household budget has been alloted to the basic commodities which, oh my Lord, the prices are soaring high! i suppose this all can be blamed to the rapid oil price increase where all needs depend. every commodity goes with its increase and the result is every other else is sacrificed.

since diesel is needed for the transport of goods, suppliers have no choice but to set their prices higher to sustain the allocation on diesel. I think the product prices only change following the law of supply and demand.

the price of food has gone higher. and it will be if diesel still goes high;
fares have too, I remember when I started commuting, it was only Php 1.50 minimum and now they are proposing to raise it to Php 10!

i mean, everything has become so expensive that the masses have to sacrifice other things and one of them is very important such as education. for even tuition fees also increased and the parents resort is to stop their children from going to school. which is not right. I have been very lucky to finish schooling. but what about the younger ones? isn't the world should be responsible to give the children some education? and not just profiteering on the poor people. that would result to the increase of uneducated people who will be doing even the most dangerous things in the world in able to survive and the big people take advantage of.

i hope that this will be resolved very soon. i wonder why sometimes saving just doesn't work! if i could propose at least to give a one-day holiday for everyone where no one will use diesel-powered engines and instead use bicycles. it's not only good for the body but also for the environment. provide jobs nearest to everyone nearest to their homes, and focus to the jobs that really provide the needs like farming, teaching and practicing in medicine.

i hope everyone will realize that it is easier to live simpler.

taas-kilay ako!


kagabi ay nakita ko ang kabalahuraan kong c jouie sa tunnel ng Araneta Center. papunta ako ng Gateway at sya naman ay papunta na ng MRT. pareho na sana kameng pauwi kaso natigilan kame dahil kapag nagkita kame ay aatake na naman ang mga bunganga namin sa kakukwento tungkol sa mga bagay-bagay. matagal na rin naming hindi nakita c jouie. since nung nagpunta pa ata kame ng Nasugbu for our SDI barkada outing.

so kumain muna kame sa Gateway Food Express at umorder sa KimChi. susme ni hindi man lang ako naanghangan sa "Korean dish" nila na chicken and beef BBQ saka ginisang toge. shempre naexcite naman kame at dun lang din kame nagkita ulit kaya tinext ko agad c rio na magkasama nga kame ni jouie. ayun, habang kumakain ay walang-humpay na kwentuhan. shempre share ko sa kanya ung HK experience ko at pagbalik at sya naman ay nagkwento tungkol sa bago nyang work.

pagdating ni rio ay nagpa-dessert sya. (nakuha sa kantyaw. hehehehe..) so tuloy pa rin ang kwento ko sa HK dahil dun lang din kame nagkausap ni rio.
mejo natagalan kameng magkwentuhan at halos bilang na ang tao sa Gateway. naka-ilang CR na rin ako sa kakainom ng softdrinks.

hinatid muna namin c jouie kasi nasaraduhan sya ng MRT kaya hinatid namin papunta sa sakayan ng bus. pero paglabas namin ng Gateway, sa bandang Eurotel, may sumalubong samin na isang bata at namamalimos para may makain daw sila ng kapatid nya. iniwasan namin sya. sabihin man na masama kame pero pano ka maaawa sa isang pulubi na bihis-pamasko, may gintong kwintas at hindi gusgusin? luminga-linga pa ako at hinanapan ko sya ng kapatid. wala akong nakitang bata.

sa isip-isip ko, bakit ko sya bibigyan ng limos e kung ako nga hindi nkasuot ng gintong kwintas? nasan ang kapatid nya? at bakit parang isang babae ang nakaabang sa kanya sa ganung lugar? naramdaman ko tuloy na parang sindikato ang batang yun. mabuti narin at umiwas kame.

naihatid naman namin c jouie ng matiwasay sa sakayan at kame rin ni rio ay madaling nakauwi.
