Kung bakit hindi protesta ang solusyon sa problema ng Pilipinas

Tuwing may nakikita ako na mga student activists, naiisip ko mga dinaanan ko dati-

"Yung tipong akala mo binabago mo yung mundo sa pag sigaw sa kalsada, akala mo nag kakasundo ang buong mundo- fired up ka, energetic, dami mo enerhiya- madami ka gusto sisihin sa eskwelahan mo, sa gobyerno at kadalasan sumasali ka sa protesta dahil malungkot sa bahay-" di mo pa mahanap sarili mo- gusto mo yung feeling of belongingness.

Hindi sa, walang nagagawa ang protesta, meron- madami kung may direction at concentrated efforts- may planning at end goal- pero kadalasan ng mga gantiong movement nag fafade away- dahil wala talang goal- nauuwi sa fad at self interest.

Kadalasan ginagamit lang ang mga bata, ang enerhiya nila bilang mga Pawn- madali kasi sila lipulin dahil sa emosyon, at iilan ang nag-iisip kung ano talaga ang gusto nila mangyari sa buhay.

Magigising ka na lang, kanya kanya ng negosyo mga kasama mo, yung idolohiya mo nagugutom ka at pamilya mo, yung hatred mo lalo lumalaki at tumataas- the more na negative ang sigaw mo the more na negatibo din nangyayari sa buhay at paligid mo.

Naging challenge sa akin, isipin mabuti kung paano ko lalagpasan ang pagiging aktibista ko--paano ba ako mas totoong babago ng mundo.

Sa mundo na galit ka palagi, galit din ang maidudulot mo.

Madami ang nagiging disillusioned at nagagamit na lang ang galing sa mga propganda ng mga mas malakas din sa kanila.
Na realize ko ito nung nag boboycott ako ng SM, straight 3 years tapos, yung mga mismong nag tuturo sa akin mag boycott nasa SM starbucks every other week.

I have realized, that I needed to know who I am, akala mo minsan nakakatulong ka, pero kelan kaya nakatulong ang galit?

Sa simula't sapul, mas makakatulong pa pala ako, kung naresolbahan ko lungkot ng sarili kong isip-- that if I could be happy and lead a peaceful life I could contribute more.

HIndi gobyerno, pamilya at ibang tao ang may kasalanan bakit ganyan ang buhay mo--IKAW AT ANG ISIP MO ANG KAILANGAN MO BAGUHIN.

Next time, be careful, kung saan ka dinadala ng emosyon at idolohiya mo, pag bata ka-- gustong gusto ko nila gamitin lahat.
Alamin mo--ano kang totoo, para di ka mawala. DECIDE YOUR OWN LIFE

Know your local artist: Khervin John Gallandez : The Ilocano Artist

Khervin John Gallandez is an emerging visual artist from Ilocos. It has been a personal advocacy to share the amazing people I have met while on the road Khervin John Gallandez, is one of the many hopefuls in the local art industry— and he is definitely worth our time. He has focus and determination and young artists can learn a lot from his willingness to evolve when it comes to his craft. Q&A : At what age did you first realize that you wanted to become an artist? I started to draw at the age of 7, as far as I remember. I draw simple houses with my cousins. My mother was a disciplinarian before, and she provides used papers for me to draw/scribble instead of me going out and playing around. When my father came back in Philippines from working abroad, he brought set of encyclopedias for me to read. It was then the first time that I read about paintings of the old masters (e.g. Leonardo Da Vinci, Van Gogh and others) which gave me my

Why you need to visit the Bamboo Intramuros

There are very few places in Metro Manila that would make you feel relaxed and one with nature . I was fortunate enough to meet one of the legendary owners of Bamboo Grande franchise. Honesto Deuda aka Ka-Oni is well loved by friends, acquaintances and people who have met him from different walks of life. He co-owns some of the best bar and restaurants in Metro Manila. Ka Oni is known for creating inspiring and bars that have soul, spunk and spirit. He has been conceptualizing organic looking resto bars for more than 10 years now. Ka- Oni's creations are noticeable because the resto bars that he creates are made out of love for music and the arts. His process is different, Ka Oni creates the vision for the restaurants but does not need to put them on paper, they are directly executed from his imagination to reality. Ka Oni was already featured in Mabuhay International Magazine for the amazing work that he has done with his surrounding commun

Origami Pilipinas: Changing the Country one paper fold at a time

MAY 22 TIU theater is an artist hub located in Makati, and I was given the chance to watch Bakata: The Battle of Street Poets, a play produced by Toshihiko Uriu - The play was a huge success and is predicted to turn into a Philippine classic, but I am writing this article right now to highlight another story that occurred inside the TIU theater. A collaboration piece that helped produce the effect of the wonder called Bakata. I noticed the glow of the lanterns and the paper cranes highlighted in the stage design, it had the flair and flamboyant but subtle effect that was needed in order to make the stage look just perfect for the story line. Leo R Natividad is the President and Owner of Origami Pilipinas. I was fortunate to meet members like L. River Butay, Adonis dela Cruz as well as Jose Monzales and other volunteers who continue to strengthen Origami Pilipinas. Origami Pilipinas and their Advocacy: Origami Pilipinas, was founded out of pa
