"Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frighten us. We ask ourselves, 'Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, and fabulous?' Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people will not feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It is not just in some of us; it is in everyone and as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give others permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others." -- Marianne Williamson, from her book A Return To Love: Reflections on the Principles of A Course in Miracles (1992)

Proudly Filipino!!!

Filipinos are awesome!!!



SOOOOOOO...

I'm sitting on my bed, in my room, minding my own business,
when suddenly, my brother comes in and tells me he found this really funny video from youtube about a series of videos on Filipino Tutorials.
These videos are made by Mikey Bustos: a Filipino-Canadian from Toronto who was the seventh runner-up in the finals of Canadian Idol Season 1 in August 2003.

In this particular video, he mimics how Filipinos with hard accents speaks English in a very humble and honest way. He explains why certain filipinos have this accent and why it's so funny for filipinos like us is that he does it really well. This is really how some of our old folks would speak english. But don't get us wrong, not all filipinos speak this way.
