On fraternity hazing.

Who 's responsible for the death of Cris Mendez?

Nakakalungkot at nakakasuklam na sa dami nang nabiktima ng fraternity hazing, kailangang may mabiktima ulit.

Hindi sinasadya?

Napuruhan lang?

Lasing nung ginagawa ang initiation rites?

Pweh. I wonder what sort of sick excuses could be running on the minds of the guilty party. Paano kaya sila nakakatulog/nakakahinga/nakakakain nang hindi nila naiiisip yung accidentally e napatay nilang neophyte? Neophyte na iniwan lang nila sa tapat ng Veterans' Hospital na parang hit-and-run victim. Ganun na lang yon? You can't even honor him in death? The guy took his chances and subjected himself under your whims. So much for brotherhood. So much for the fraternity's claims of honor, priniciple, and balls. The mighty brotherhood doesn't even have the decency to owe up to the grave consequences of their mistake and say sorry.

Nakakasukang magkaroon ng mga ganitong klaseng kaeskuwela.

miss-mushy

Because i`m too lazy to post a decent blog entry (notice how my blogging habits merely produces tags or results of self-indulgent quizzes?). Well, here we have a list of things I wish I could have brought with me to Ramenland:

1. Tambay. Whiling away the hours in Cubao, Katipunan and Timog. I miss getting my coffee fix and chatting the night (usually a friday or saturday) away with my dear, equally talkative friends. (marco/trixie/mine/checo/anji/carl)

2. Being a groupie girlfriend. Oh, I super miss going to Manox gigs! Taking pictures (from one angle only because I`m usually too lazy --or shy-- to look for better angles), talking to Grace and Rom (the Purple chicks), listening to GAS-induced conquests (c/o the Manox boys), and trading punkrock stories.

3. Watching gigs. Drinking my usual bottle of Red Horse. And, aside from the Purplechickens, seeing Imago, Peryodiko, and the Itchyworms, among others, play live. Can you believe it, umalis ako and then them Manoxies gigged with Rivermaya and the Wuds? Wah, ingget. These days, the only gig I get to attend is that of ASAP. So much for dressing up for the TV set. (thankyou, tfc).

3. Pigging away. With chinese officemate Iris, Nancy, Rienne, etc. Or with the Marco-shippers, Claire and Raich. Miss taking the chow with a healthful dose of chismis.

4. Going to the movies. I miss escaping to the dark, comforting halls of our moviehouses. In kolehiyala talk, "Super mahal the moviehouses here." And, well, I would have loved to catch A Love Story. Somebody score me a pirated copy, please. :p

5. Watching plays, checking out exhibits. FOA-mode.

6. Going to work. (And this is how much I miss Manila. I miss going to work, gaddamet.)

7. Going to church.

8. Marco. The tambay, away, kape, pelikula, chika, quiapo, pier, dibidi, etc., etc. (nos. 1-5) I miss the boy`s company, his physical presence, and, uhm, his own brand of charm. (btw, it`s Makoy`s birthday on September 14. Send him lotsa luv and greetings, folks! ;p )
