nasopharyngitis
i'm sick again. surprise, surprise. anyway...
feeling ka ba?
naisip ko lang. i'm a person who hates people who pretend. ayoko ng sinungaling, trying hard, and most of all, plastic. kulang nalang maging advocate ako ng pagpapakatotoo. i'd rather shout to the world that i'm a backstabbing bitch rather than smile and bat my eyelashes at the people i secretly wish would undergo chinese fingernail torture.
but there's a limit to how much you can actually say.
in our annual retreat in the sixth grade, i received a palanca letter from one of my not-so-close friends. nagulat ako sa nakasulat. she wrote there: "mayabang". and it stuck with me until now because of all the things, i also do not want to be labeled as that.
people have so many things they can be proud of: aesthetic appeal, good upbringing, intelligence, skill, wealth, success, popularity, prestige, etcetera. and whenever we have any one of these, we can't help but show it - by wearing some sexy top, announcing a perfect score in an exam, showing off a new car, displaying trophies and awards, you know the drill. actually that's all fine with me.
as long as:
1. TOTOO.
2. you don't overdo it.
sadly, some people just can't help violating both.
what is this world coming to?
