discrimination

Issue on discrimination. Almost everyone is now again fuming in anger… I also believe that nobody should offend any Filipinos in any way. But, do we ever thought of analyzing why such thing was said about us? Filipinos are infuriated; but have we tried to check on what some of the Filipinas are doing? They are all over the cyberspace, posing like a product for sale or for rent. Then, try to think and assess, why are these Filipinas doing that kind of humiliation? I think most of them are beginning to lose hope; thinking that their final option is to marry a foreigner in order to escape the deathlike poverty and have a better future... A very depressing reality that we have to face…

TVC

Watching TV is undeniably one of the most wanted pastimes of every person. Many people are glued to their TV set watching their favorite TV shows. In addition, we are also entertained by the advertisements, endorsing different products, in between shows. Recently, I’ve been enjoying seeing some ads:
SMART’s unlinyt calls
- this is between two guy friends, who are roommates… observe how the chubby guy reacted when he heard his roommate asking for another “level” of friendship… I’ve seen this so many times yet I still can’t help but laugh every time I see his reaction, another thing is the concept of the skit itself is very funny
Camella’s bulilit
- the theme song used and the little “bulilit” girl, who acts in the commercial definitely catches everyone’s attention…
Lucky Me’s basketball try-out
- the little boy crying came home telling his mom, “12 lang nakuha sa try-out pang-13 ako… practice ako ng practice… may uniform na ako” I really like that part! hehe and Never say die … Tomorrow is another day!
Fiesta’s basketball game
I haven’t fully figure out the concept of the ad, but the last part: the coach saying “Ispageti, ispageti” is really funny.

On the other hand, the LBC’ spelling contest is quite not right. I think REMITTANCE will never be spelled as capital lbc… right? Maybe they should think of another way of equating remittance to LBC.
