Happy Independence Day!

UPDATE: Google homepage featured our holiday!

UPDATE: I've added our issues with China

It's 0:01 of June 12, 2014 as I am writing this part. This means that I stayed awake to witness the transition from yesterday to today.

To the Filipino people, Happy Independence Day!

July 4th 1946 is the original Philippine Independence Day.
That means it's still too early to celebrate it right now, eh?

Hey, are we really a free people? Yes, we are a free people in terms of geographical territories and the absence of military oppression from foreign conquistadors.

But hey, are we really living the freedom we ought to be living? I don't completely think so. The Filipinos are now being shackled by our national problems, adding them to the personal problems we are already battling with. For the past few months, what have we been facing?

A view on jobs, reality, happiness, and humanity

There are people who work and there are people who don't, excluding those who are still studying. Of course, within those two categories of people classified according to their employment status, several subcategories exist. For example, a person who works belongs to either the subgroup of those who work because they like their job or the subgroup of those who work because they do not have a choice. A person who do not work might be one who chose not to work because there are no job vacancies. Another unemployed person might have been unemployed not because he chose to be, but because he was deemed either underqualified or overqualified for the job he thought would have been perfect for him.

Employed versus Unemployed. It seems that most people have the fixation on attaining the employment status which would lead them to a favorable life and the fixation on looking down on people who do not attain it.
