Book Burger Breakaway

Yesterday, sa sobrang pagka-irita ko kay Ele, naisipan kong bumili ng book, actually, pumunta ako ng National bookstore and naghanap kung anong pedeng mabili and I got A B N K K B S N P L A Ko ?! Mga kwentong chalk ni Bob ong. Maganda sya. I mean, I read it in one sitting kasi nakakatuwa yung story and way ng pagsulat ng writer. Its a story of the writer's journey from being a student to being a teacher. Astig yung pagkakaroon ng writer ng point of view ng both side. The thing is he was not the nerdy type of kid nung student sya. I mean parang above average so talagang nakita yung side ng mga student in a point of view of an average student. Although magaang yung pagkakasulat ng writer sa simula biglang bumigat yung pagsulat nya ng dumating sa college life nya kung saan naka experience sya ng mabigat na problema. Then muli itong gumaan nung nakabawi na sya sa. The good thing about this book kahit nakakatuwa or tawa yung pagkakasulat nya natalakay nya ang problema natin sa sistema ng edukasyon dito sa Pilipinas. From sa kakulangan sa facilities, sa expertise ng guro at sa dahilan ng kakulangan sa guro. Maraming symbolism din at mga values ang nakita ko sa book although ayoko ng idiscuss kasi parang gumagawa na ako ng book review hehehe. Maganda rin kasi sa librong ito,maaalala mo yung mga naging experience mo bilang isang mag-aaral dahil yun nga makakarelate ka sa ilang karanasan ng may-akda. Natuwa din ako sa sa pagkakasulat nya, nagtapos sya sa simula.

Isang burger McDo na lang at makukumpleto ko na ang Happy Meal toys nila... Pagkatapos nun kakalimutan ko muna na nageexist ang fastfood na McDonalds. Three days in a row na akong kumakain ng burger McDo at kahapon dalawang beses akong kumain ng burger McDo. Yelch! The thought of kakain na naman ako ng Burger McDo mamaya sickens me. Promise pag lumagpas pa sa isa ang kakainin kong Burger McDo, masusuka na ako...

Speaking of McDo, I hate the Manny Pacquiao commercial nila lalo na yung "Pa pa ra pacquiao.." lech.

Important to read the stanza in bold.

Breakaway

Grew up in a small town
And when the rain would fall down
I just stared out my window
Dreaming of a could-be
And if I'd end up happy
I would pray (I would pray)

Trying not to reach out
But when I'd try to speak out
Felt like no one could hear me
Wanted to belong here
But something felt so wrong here
So I pray (I would pray)
I could breakaway

I'll spread my wings and I'll learn how to fly
I'll do what it takes til' I touch the sky
I'll make a wish
Take a chance
Make a change
And breakaway

Out of the darkness and into the sun
But I won't forget all the ones that I loved
I'll take a risk
Take a chance
Make a change
And breakaway

Wanna feel the warm breeze
Sleep under a palm tree
Feel the rush of the ocean
Get onboard a fast train
Travel on a jet plane, far away (I will)
And breakaway

I'll spread my wings and I'll learn how to fly
I'll do what it takes til' I touch the sky
I'll make a wish
Take a chance
Make a change
And breakaway

Out of the darkness and into the sun
But I won't forget all the ones that I loved
I'll take a risk
Take a chance
Make a change
And breakaway

Buildings with a hundred floors
Swinging around wild indoors
Maybe I don't know where they'll take me but
Gotta keep moving on, moving on
Fly away, breakaway

I'll spread my wings
And I'll learn how to fly
Though it's not easy to tell you goodbye
I gotta take a risk
Take chance
Make a change
And breakaway

Out of the darkness and into the sun
But I won't forget the place I come from
I gotta take a risk
Take a chance
Make a change
And breakaway,
breakaway,
breakaway

-->I'll breakaway...
