Pilipinas


Dear Pilipinas,

You're so frustrating! I've decided to make this post tagalog so that non-filpinos won't understand this.

Hay. Pilipinas, nakakafrustrate ka. Anong nangyayari sayo? Hindi ko alam kung paano pa tayo babangon. Wala na atang magandang balita sa radyo at t.v.

Mga Pulis na dapat sila ang nagtatangol sa atin pero sila pa ang nangunguna sa krimen at kasamaan.

Pitong taong gulang na bata ginahasa at pinatay.

Riding in Tandem na walang sawang mangholdap at pumatay. Dukutan. Nakawan. Holdapan.

Malaking kaltas sa maliit na sweldo. Tayo ang isa sa pinakamalaki at madaming klase ng buwis. Pero Araw bakit di tayo umaangat?

Bakit sira padin ang ating mga kalye. Mabilis na pagbaha kapag umuulan. Mapangit na sistema sa mga ospital. Mababang level ng estudyante.

Mga korup na lider ng bansa. Lider na sila lang ang yumayaman at patuloy na nagpapayaman gamit ang kaban ng bayan.

Araw na pasakit mula sa Pila sa MRT siksikan pagpasok sa Tren at Traffic sa mga pangunahing lansangan. Wala kang magawa dahil kailangan mo ung danasin araw araw. Wala kang magawa dahil kailangan mong kumita. Kailangan mong mabuhay. Kailangan mong magsurvive.

Kanina, Sinigawan ko yung guwardya sa MRT dahil sa magulong sistema ng Pila. Oo hindi ko dapat ginawa yun. Kasi yun lang ang kaya niang gawin..

Pero sino ba ang dapat sisihin ko? Sino ba dapat ang sisiihin ng mga Pinoy. Ano pa ba ang dapat naten gawin? Ano pa???

Nagmamahal,
J, CPA

Accounting with Excellence

Image
"Find(ing) your passion in the job you have.." - Atom  To be honest I never dream to be an accountant. BSA was never in my vocabulary. In fact, I just learned that Accounting exist when I was about to enroll college. Accounting was never been part of my college choices. If you know me well, you probably knew what was the story behind and how I ended up enrolling in BSA. In short, dito lang talaga ako napadpad. Literal! But eventually, when I realized na I don’t have any choice. Naka graduate na ko, pumasa and all, I learned to accept that I am an accountant. But since being an accountant is stressful, I ended up job hopping. I applied in different companies and hoping to find “the one”. But at the end of the day I am still not contented. Until one day I realized that the issue here is not who I work with. The issue here is what I think. And how I am ungrateful with life. Now, I change my perspective. I learned to be contented and to be thankful when it comes to my ...

Surviving Sagada. Wiw!

Image
When I got married, one of my top places to visit in the Philippines is Sagada (together with El Nido, Bicol, Hundred Islands, Cagayan Valley and Coron) Way back 2009, our church had a Mission Camp at Mt. Praise Assemblies of God in Sagada, which is also affiliated in our church in Manila. We had our bible study, prayer meeting, visitations and others. Oh I must admit I missed those sometimes. Although we had our rest and recreation time, we never had the chance to try the cave connection. When we went in the mouth of the cave, it rained. They make me believe that even in the littlest rain, it is unsafe to enter in the cave. (but later I found out that this is not true) Haha. So from there on I long to try the cave connection. My longing was revived when we saw the movie “That Thing called Tadhana” when the main setting was in Baguio and in Sagada. But I never had a chance to go back to Sagada until I had my official travel buddy! Haha.  Back then, my parents won’t allow me t...

risk?

Taking every risk. Leaving everyone behind. Or the dreams to be forgotten. All the plans that were set aside. Everything was done for you. But as the saying says “the higher the risk the greater the reward or the punishment” but I know in my heart whatever will it be I know what reward will  I gain in the near future so all I can say is ALL THE RISKS ARE WORTH IT 'coz you are worth fighting for.
