summahlicious
tok. tok. tok. at our door knocked mr. water guy to deliver water (of course). there i was home alone and feeling remorse for eating unripened mangoes with alamang. i really thought that i could deal with eating alamang (which is shrimp paste) although i know i am allergic to it. when mr. water guy knocked, i was waiting for my sister to fetch me and take me to the hospital. and why was i remorseful? because i know that i'll have to wait for my inflammed face to subside and chances are, i am gonna miss my friend's farewell party. :((
anyway, going back to mr. water guy. i opened the door and he asked, "hey babe, what's up? yo want watah?" okay. i know i'm bubble girl in red fashion but does allergy entail hallucinations? "ano kuya?" i replied. and with that disturbingly nangmamata look he replied, "haller, yo ordered tubig diba? haller" okay. that was a bit weird. not because he doesn't deserve speaking in english but because it was dumbfoundingly weird to have the once simple kuya to be speaking in gangsta language.
prior to this incident, i had a fair share of kaek-ekan texts (which are not barok but isomorphic to barok, as a friend describes it). my favorite: "hi! gud gv poh." that i have mistakenly thought to be the local radio station in lipa (gv fm).obviously this was not inspired by the "gangsta language". but conversely, it shows how overrated we are becoming for the effort (make it excessive effort) to make a statement, to build a trend.
are these changes in language part of modernization, or are we simply becoming posers, just to fit in?
i do not wish to make a big deal out of this trend nor do i wish to mock the people who use them.
but the things is, do we really need to make fools out of ourselves just to fit in?
do we really need to wear sweaters under shirts and under boleros and under jackets just because it is in style?
do we really need to apply thick eyeliners even if we know we are to stay in school?
do we really need to smoke a pack of cigarettes in public just because our "groupies" are?
there is nothing wrong to imitate or to change if it is for comfort..for the better.
but if it is for making another loser,
maybe change is unnecessary.
