I killed someone!
Monday, April 14, 2008A bird came booming out of the brush just as the PUJ I was riding got up to speed at the intersection, the bird too fast for identification. It hit the metal just above of the windshield with a thud. The driver didn’t bother but when I looked in the rearview mirror, I saw the feathers filtering…like snow, though I am not sure how real snow filter.
It made me feel bad, not for not having a snow experience. It made me wish we had gotten to the point of intersection with the bird in flight a little earlier or a little later, not at that exact precise moment.
Victims are birds like people who arrived at the wrong place at the wrong time in too big hurry.
Brain drain
Thursday, April 3, 2008Brain drain.
Una ko yang narinig sa English teacher ko nung high school. Eto daw yung pagsialisan ng mga professional, trained and talented individual para maghanap ng greener pasture sa ibang bansa. Binanggit ni Ma’am ang posibleng pagkaubos ng taong yaman ng Pilipinas pag patuloy ang madugong brain drain. Paano na raw kapag nagkasakit tayo at pagdating sa hospital hindi agad maasikaso kasi kulang sa doctor o nurse. Paano raw magkaroon ng mga doctor, nurse, teacher kung ang mga guro ay aalis para mging DH sa Hongkong, Kuwait o Singapore.
Ang ganda ng pagka deliver niya ng kanyang monologue na halos nahulog ang buong klase sa pangakong hindi iiwan ang Pilipinas sa sandaling magtatapos kami sa college.

Don’t put Villar PRs without payment.
Bangag pa ako sa tinira kong sleeping tab. Hindi ako nakareply kahit “OK”. Pag si Boss kasi nagtext, pwede kang hindi magreply pero pag hindi ka nagreply tatawagan ka kesehodang alas-3 ng madaling araw yan! Mabuti na lng at hindi tumawag. Teka, pinilit ko alalahanin kung may nailagay ba akong PR ni Villar for Saturday issue, wala naman aside sa article ni Sinay. Teka uli, Saturday na ngayon, hindi nako may hawak ng Sunday ish… Friday girl lang ako. Good thing at week-end editor lang ako… Makatulog nga uli.
