10 Things I hate
Fine, let’s start:
10. The colors yellow and orange.
My mom, back in grade school, used to buy all my clothes. As in. And back then, I never, ever, got to wear jeans. Instead I wore dresses, the ones with frills and laces and huge flower patterns. Don’t get me wrong, I love those dresses but at some point, I had to grow up and be a teen. I envied my classmates who wore t-shirts and jeans and shorts and sneakers and stuff because I only got to wear sandals and dresses back then. I actually owned a pair of jeans and I think 4-5 tees and that’s it. My ‘trendy’ stuff were already few, add to that the fact that my shirts were all in yellow and orange. And I’m morena so it made me look so much darker. When I graduated from grade school, I had to beg my mom to let me choose my own clothes from then on.
9. Pinoy ‘Entertainment’. Lets face it, entertainment in this country is loosely defined as repetitive, recycled material, repackaged to target those who are gullible enough to buy them. Preference is of course something I could not be against with because it is an individual choice, but to actually enjoy Wowowee’s almost sadist brand of humor, the Pinoy Movie Industry and their predictable storylines, and the actors and the love teams who seemingly want to play it safe by doing pa-tweetums on t.v….C’mon guys! We deserve more substantial and quality materials from this industry. Thank goodness for independent movies and the rise of Pinoy bands these past few years!
8. Mahangin, Mayabang at Feeling. I think we have experiences wherein we have this classmate or seatmate or groupmate na Mahangin, Mayabang at Feeling.
Mahangin a.k.a. Air-Con. – He/She’s like a mile away from you and yet you can feel his/her air filling up the room. His/her confidence level is overwhelming it gets to the point that it annoys you.
Mayabang a.k.a. Kapal-muks – He/She brags about everything and anything she/he has, regardless of whether you asked him/her or not. Showing off is second nature to them, throwing insults and complains around are third.
Feeling a.k.a. Pinagpala – He/she thinks the universe was created for him/her. They think everyone is suppose to worship them, wait hand and foot for them and be amazed at how ‘blessed’ they are when in fact they only have too much self-confidence.
7. Banana, Ampalaya and Tokwa. I hate, hate, hate these things!
6. Corruption and overuse of Power. Hmm…PGMA, Erap or Philippine Politics in general (aray).
