Why We Hate

August 28, 2014August 28, 2014 Adorable Mercader

Introspection was brought before me when I read something that goes, “We hate others because we run out of things we hate on ourselves”. My first impression is like, “what the heck!” I hate because I hate! Period. I did not sleep through it until I decode what it is trying to say. Yes, maybe that’ why I hate the rich because I hate being poor. Yes, maybe I hate the braves because I hate being a coward. Yes, maybe I hate the seemingly flawless because I hate my imperfections.

1. They have not much to say. Because they are busy figuring things out on their minds. 2. They know a lot. And the more they know, the more they think they know nothing. 3. They decode non-verbal cues. Many of them just sit in a corner observing people. 4. They better listen than talk 5. Their version of confidence is silence.

Why Tone Down Angst

August 10, 2014August 28, 2014 Adorable Mercader

Last night’s gathering with the toastmaster’s District 75 Division B officers injected me something that will eventually be part of my system—less writing about my all-time favorite theme, ANGST. When I flipped the pages of my notes, I was surprised to know that more than 80 percent of it is all about hatred to the world and all its sickening ways of reminding humans of their imperfections. All I pen is abhorrence on people, on ideologies, and on events. And being a person who relies no other people but myself, I almost come to believe that there is no way … Continue reading Why Tone Down Angst

Legaspi, Albay

Tale is true. Peak perfect! Mt. Mayon is definitely enchanting casting all the bloody curses I’ve thrown for the 13-hour eternity-like butt numbing bus ride from Manila to Legaspi City. Above is the view from where I stayed. It only dawned unto me after a couple of minutes staring outside the window. My timing was a bit unfortunate for as I went closer the fog, clouds, and whatever that is became crazy. But what the heck, I traveled far so why not manage to raise two thumbs up. Ha! Ha! Anyway don’t forget to check out La Piazza Hotel’s minced … Continue reading Legaspi, Albay

Ito nga siguro ang nagagawa ng pagkabagot You write things that randomly strike Mga bagay na di naman dapat pag-aksyahan ng oras But you feel like it is important to pen Kasi nga wala kang makausap Siguro ay insekyur lang ako Sa babaing kumantang animo’y hinugot pa sa atay ang boses Para lamang matawid ang chorus ng Torete Miss pwede ba, sintonado ako Pero wala akong dinadamay sa krimen ko Wala pang gabi pero nakalimang kape na ako Oops, I am not drowsy or something Kape lang talaga pampalipas oras ko I want to pass the hour awake Ayoko ma-miss … Continue reading Dahil Bored Ako!

I wish I were a good speaker. A soul that can turn audience to be advocates. I wish I could write like Shakespeare. Thoughts invincible, words encompassing. But all I can mutter are phrases. Incoherent rant that is structured with nonsense. I am not being maudlin. I hate being a melodramatic fool. What more can I say… A cup of hell hot black coffee on my left My bleeding pen on the right They squeezed me to think But the degrading brain refused Nyay! I saw the grammar Nazi. Itching to strike the crimson tube. I invoke the freedom … Continue reading Random Thoughts
