Pinoy ako, Pinoy tayo…

I hate this feeling. I am constipated. I have a constipated mind. For the past days, I wanted to blog but I am having blog-topic incontinence. One laxative, please. Hehe.

Thanks to Shari for tagging me. At least, I have something to write or blog. So I have to list down the things why am I proud to be a Filipino. Man! That’s easy. Here’s my list:

1. We HAVE a system called DAGDAG-BAWAS every elections. Plus no one loses in our elections. Lahat nanalo, mayroon lang nadaya. =))
2. We are good in pirating TV shows from other countries, foreign and local music, and the list goes on.
3. We have our own version of Black Sea/River here. Literally, black.
4. We have a number of corrupt politicians and even officials or leaders in private institutions.
5. We have big, big, big mallssss in our country despite our poverty.

Haha. Okay. I think I just stated the negative ones.

In spite of all those things I despise in our country, there are things that I am really proud of. (Now, this is for real.)

1. We’re smart, talented and resourceful.
2. We don’t give up even if we have boulder-like problems.
3. We have a thing called close family ties.
4. We are rich in culture and traditions.
5. We’re good in speaking in English compared to other countries.
6. We fight for what is right and for our rights.
7. We’re friendly, accommodating and hospitable.
8. The number of youths who are becoming aware in our socio-economic problems is increasing. And I think that is better to hear rather than their rants or complaints that they do not have the latest lip gloss or outfit or *insert more whines here*.
9. We have compassionate and the best nurses. Of course, I have to include that. Hehe.
10. Last but not the list, I am proud that we are all (I think) still proud to be a Filipino even if we always blab about the bad things we see here in our country.

Mabuhay ang mga Pinoy. =)

Now I am tagging those finalists of the Teen Blog Awards who drop by my blog every now and then.
