I’m neither rich nor successful mga kabisyo, but don’t pity me because at least I’ve moved on with my Barrio Siete life and I hope I could continue to sustain it this way. But, have I? Maybe, maybe not. But should I decide to and time at anda permits, I can fly to Tampere, Finland; buy lalaki in Amsterdam; maging pokpok along St. Catherine in Montreal or simply bumukaka na lang in Boracay. Eh pede namang utangin yon noh? No, I don’t sell nor singhot talcum powder nor am I involved in any product launches and free lunches or ABZTD contracts. Maganda lang talaga ako. It was pure hard work, torridly hard talent and a desire to get out of NaOnseLand. That’s how I fought.
Barrio Siete life is just a memory. Funny. Some good. Some bad. And this one is bad. Being marginalized, trampled, alipustahin, ismol-ismolin, ignored because you haven’t got the biskwit they got and still be socially manhandled. Yes, kabisyo, in anglais, it’s called exclusionary. See? Kaya I suffer from attenshun deficit sendrums! Cheezemaks forever and nevah ending panlalait. When I finally landed in Apple Land? Dagsaan ever ang friends, labasan lungga ang relathieves. The best part? I hear and get a lot of robina papuri feeds all day long. Result? Eto ako, putak nang putak sa blog.
Good life in Barrio Siete is not for all. It’s exclusive to those who got connections, who got money and barangay tanod power. I’m sure this is still true to some, that the population in any Barrio Siete is only good for wicked trapos who needs them for their selfish objectives. Manipulated, used, sometimes coerced and used some more. So if you’re one of the have nots, the can’t affords, people look at you differently, uuring-uringin pa you. Get used to being trampled and ismol-ismolin. Don’t worry; you get treated special delivery naman if they need help. Once done, get used to being marginalized, again, for the second time around, once more forever, together one another, ever ever. It’s the normal way of life if you’re below the poverty level.
If you’ve read up to this part, you’re reading it right. I am angry. I’m still angry. That’s why I admire people who lifts the spirit of the have nots and the marginalized and make blogging an opportunity to everyone. Yes, I abhor any semblance of internet hazing gangster type attitude by anyone and the more I detest people who condone their actions and people who even reward them with familiar awards. People who claim themselves to be some authority. People who advance some advocacies and espouses moral authority but behind their backs are full of wicked abnormalities.
But wait! Did I just say that Barrio Siete life was just a memory now? It’s not. Because no matter how much you thread very carefully, there are wicked angels who will attack you and gremlins to reward the action. If there is Gucci Gang in some high society fantasy, lookout because there are also Blog Gangsters in the internet society.

I’m taking off for a few days mga kabisyo. If you see blog entries showing up, because I have posts previously written which are scheduled to be live on certain dates. It’s not a good idea to be blogging when you are angry and I’m sure I have angered some people too as they have angered me as well. I am going away and will have very limited email and internet access.
Weekly Blogger Awards will continue.
And so is social climbing. It’s a choice. And I have mine too.
Au revoir !

huwat? bakasyon ang reyna? ano nangyari? lasing ako kagabi eh ngayon lang bumabalik sa aking ala-ala mga pinagsasabi ng reyna kagabi… gets ko na kung bakit sya galit, pero ang di ko malaman ay ano ang nangyari bukod dun? hmmmmm CIA mode…
pabayaan nyo muna magrest si reynz, may finifigure out lang yan siguro. Everyone needs space and I think she needs that para naman makapagrelax din sya at makapag shed off ng sama ng loob.
wag masyado matagal inang at mamimiss ka ng mga engkanto mo
