    SKL… yung mga seminar before wedding dito sa atin ang family planning model is GOD FFS. I dont think Im ready to raise a child pero tangina yung iba apat na and they are barely on minimum wage di ko alam pano naiisip ng ibang tao na kaya na nila ng ganyang responsibilidad with that amount of money.

      May isa kami pre-wedding seminar na inattendan that was 8am-5pm. I was so sleepy the entire time and my attention was piqued momentarily by a couple who actually had an interesting story to tell. Namatay daw panganay nila na anak at nasunugan ng bahay and I was really looking forward to hear them explain how they were able to recover, and the wife just said “awa ng diyos nakaraos kami” and I suddenly went flaccid.

      Pero in fairness, nakakatawa mga ibang pari. Some of them understand the irony of being celibates yet being asked to give advice on family but they do it anyway kasi they committed to it. I can at least respect that.

    Puno ng hugot yung mga graduation speeches no? Kakasawa na yung cliche against-all-odds success story and work-towards-the-bright-future call to action na walang insights sa problems ng society. Panalo yung ganito walang denial sa problema.

    Kunsabagay, ang daming kalat lilinisin natin kasama ng mga susunod na batches. Di malilinis yun kung di nakikita or idedeny lang.

      Oh god, yes. Kahit mga guest speaker puros ganyan din speech, kakaumay na.

      That’s why the girl who posed with the “I can do all things through ME who strengthen ME” was okay for me, albeit obviously edgy.
