Pinoy Big Brother

Ethel & Mcoy voluntary exit

It seems that to some people, Pinoy Big Brother is no longer funny. Of course many of us would agree, and somehow sympathize with Ethel Booba’s and Mcoy Fundales’ decision to leave the Pinoy Big Brother Celebrity Edition 2 after all the things they’ve just gone through.

Though Ethel has always been known as a consistent “pasaway,” she does make a few points regarding the sacrifices they were made to endure, despite no signs of any rewards whatsoever. Obviously, she got fed up and couldn’t take any more of it, hastily requesting to leave the house. Though she’s responsible for her actions, Big Brother could’ve handled the situation much better.

And then there’s Mcoy’s issue. Having been insinuated upon that he might have produced a plagiarized story for a task they were supposed to complete, the Orange & Lemons frontman took insult and was visibly disturbed on the attack on his artistic integrity. After all, this isn’t the first time he is questioned in such a way, after their song “Pinoy Ako” for the very first PBB was subjected to scrutiny for it being a blatant of a song from an old British band.

In both cases, the problem could’ve been handled much better if Big Brother chose to simply let the situation die down. Instead, he chose to lose his cool and present offensive questions to both housemates, resulting in their voluntary exit. He could’ve handled it much better, and there’s no one else to blame.

Ang Pag ibig nga naman oh...

Dahil Sa'yo


Ayaw kong pagdudahan,
Ang bulong nitong aking puso.
Na sa bawat pintig ng aking damdamin,
Nadarama ko ang tunay na kaligayahan.

Ayaw kong isiping ako'y isang manhid,
Na noon pa ma'y bigo ako sa Pag-ibig.
Sa bawat kilos ko'y ipinapahiwatig,
Ang pagsibol ng tamis ng nakabaon kong Pag-ibig.

TULA 101

Ang Buhay Ng Tao
ni Edna Lesada


Magmula ng masilayan ang ilaw ng buhay
Mahiwaga talaga hanggang kamatayan
Wariin ko man tila walang katapusan
Buhay sa mundo lubhang napakagulo.

Kaligayahan kilala habang may hininga
Anumang mapaglarong kapalaran ay tarukin
Pipiliting sagipin kahit mapait ang lasapin
Ito ang haharapin hanggang kabiguan ay masupil.

Masaya,walang kalungkutan buhay ng kabataan
Mahimbing matulog,kumain masarap
Kabiguan o masamang kapalaran
Sa puso at diwa ni hindi maramdaman.

Ang buhay ng tao parang saranggola
Pagkatayug-tayug kung lumipad
Subalit kung ang hangin ito'y kalawitin
Mahuhulog sa lupa at magkakagula-gulanit.

Ganito ang buhay ng tao
Sumandaling kaligayahan mararanasan
Dagok ng tadhana ni hindi mo inaasahan
Tanggapin natin ng malualhati ang ating kapalaran.
