I probably failed filipino.
No.
I know I failed filipino.
It’s honestly one of the subjects I hate the most. Even before FEU.
God. I’m not much of a nationalist, am I?
I grew up watching cartoons in english, movies in english, and I even read in english, mostly. My mother wanted me to speak english well. I think the quality of my english deminished through out the years away from other filipinos who spoke good english. It started when I went to FEU and started talking to Koreans (no offense.)
I find that my speach patters are easily influenced. So to attain good english, I must speak or be around people who speak good english.
I could speak to our teachers but they don’t speak good english either.
No, really.
They don’t.
So how in the seven layers of hades will I be able to get good english?
Go abroad. To Engalnd.
Nah.
So how did my failing in filipino lead to a discussion about the quality of english I speak?
Whatever.
So due to my desire to speak better english, I have neglected to study my own tongue. And I do not regret it.
I mean seriously, I speak tagalog everyday of my fucking life. What more do you want from me?!
Although I think I failed due to my lazyness and not my prefferance of the english language over my own.
