Parang Kausap Ko Lang Sarili Ko Ah

It's been an annoying habit of mine. Well, to some people that know me, it is a bit annoying. But to me, it makes sense.

With the current oil crisis, it makes more sense now than ever before.

Disclaimer: I won't tell you to do it.

For those that know me and taste of movies, the title itself is a pun on 500 Days of Summer.
This is the social dilemma that we are in right now - kasya nga ba ang 500 pesos for Noche Buena?
But I think we are asking the wrong question. Rather than ask kung kasya, isn't it better to ask how much should we be spending for it. Or better, how much should you spend to make it a good Noche Buena.
Quick disclaimer: this episode won't dip into the political side of things.

The baduy stuff matter.

For a 43-yr old like myself, anything baduy I will take it.

Any piso, I will take. Coz I know that in this part of the world, saving for a rainy day is something that most people laugh at.

Explore the reason why I am this and how I do it.

Malay niyo, masimulan mo rin itong ganitong habit.

Is a lazy voice being confident, living in your comfort zone or just being literally lazy?

There is in fact a psychology to it, or so I say.

I am never mentioning who I voted the last time. Not in this episode. Not in this lifetime.

I instead will mention my ideals, aspirations and anything corny and cheap.

Coz that is what matters - the small stuff. You vote for something better.

AI is a blessing nga ba?

We've been hearing AI taking over some industries and how it already made some functions faster, but is it making things better?

Artifical Intelligence is doing things on behalf of humans, but is it the solution to all problems?

I guess, without asking, we ALL want to be that!

500 Million Peso Lotto winner!

Tara, pagpantasyahan natin ang pagiging isang 500 million peso lotto winner!

Are the things we do and have because of timing?

How can intent influence the timing of things?

This episode explores the idea that one should be at the right place and at the right time to achieve something. Intent is one but the timing is another.

Two time Olympic Gold Medalist!

In our lifetime, we are lucky enough to witness the achievement of a Carlos Yulo. And because it is once in a lifetime thing, why cant we just give the moment to him?

Ah, I remember, we are a third world country and we find joy in other peoples miseries.

But rather than just me acting as the only anti-social being, join me as I get to talk about it.

You have one, you are one, and you've seen one.

Fathers and their love for coffee.

Bakit kaya synonymous ang kape with being the head of the family?

Disclaimer: this is in no way gender discriminating ha.
