It’s so cringe when someone just blurts out of nowhere and I’m not sure if they’re trying trying to start a convo or what… just randomly saying “I go out of town a lot” I looked at this person like ohhh kay…. 😅��
It doesn’t matter how smart a younger person is. You can be smart, smart ass whatever but you can’t be a demanding person if I already told you instructions and you still come to me the next day as if we didn’t speak yesterday! UGH. 🙄🙄🙄🙄
To the Fil-Ams who made fun of ‘fobs’ like me: You do realize now that you're still seen as outsiders in the US especially with all the racism happening. Funny how some of you are suddenly proud Filipino ‘patriots’—but back then, ya’ll mocked us for our accents.
Sometimes I dream about moving back to the Ph, sell my tiny house, live in Ayala Alabang. Then I get reminded of how awful it is to get from point A to B & there’s no EMTALA bc it’s 💸 first before tx. In other words, America ain’t perf but the benefits are slightly justifiable.
Sometimes I miss the non famous Filipino dishes and our street foods like kwek kwek, penoy, tokneneng, pork isaw, mangga on the stick with bagoong spread 🥲
Maybe it’s just me… but why does it feel like when Filipino athletes become famous because of their careers… they become instant A-list celebs in the Ph with a ton of interviews, mag covers, and showbiz appearances. 🤷🏻♀️it’s ok to celebrate pero ang OA ng celeb stat ha.
