LITFILI WEEK 5

"The only thing constant in this world is change." 70 years ago, If i said "hey babe" to a friend of mine, I would probably get arrested for rudeness. These days, It's common to call your everyday friends sweet names like "babe" or "dear." Life today is completely different from before. From the clothing to the gadgets, everything is instant these days. I don't think change is a bad thing though. It really depends on how we use it. A funny thing I notice is how a lot of us tend to go back to the old methods when new stuff don't work. For example, I have a friend who texted a girl he liked for 4 months. The girl wouldn't budge and he became really upset to the point he was giving up. My other friend told him to just court her old school style... with flowers and chocolates and music. Know what, it worked, they're still together now. Even in fashion, notice how the old styles are starting to get back in the scene.. The chucks, scarfs, hats, etc. My point is, all these new things are here to help us, they make life easier, but let's not forget the old methods because they are tried,tested and proven to work. It's good that we still celebrate all the traditions we have.
To sum up everything, I say we should accept all these changes. They are for our benefit anyways, let's just not forget where we came from and how we got to these changes. It doesn't matter if you're old school or new breed, all that matters is your happy with who you are and what your state is. good times everyone!

*VICTORIOUS CHEER* BANZAI!!!! reading this made me realize about the past . cause i really think that the past is alot cooler. going to the girl's house, feeling home and parents accepts you. life is sweet that way. and im pretty sure that no choice ang mga torpe back in that past since there were no cellphone that time. now, women are really hard to get nowadays.(T_T)

di naman ganun kahirap...
hmm.. well actually, minsan kasi there are certain feelings that build up between the guy and the girl kaya mahirap sabihin na it's hard to get a woman, pero di ko rin naman sinasabing it's easy to get a woman, it really depends on the situation. but it's really cool when the parents accept you as a suitor of their daughter. alright!!!!

old style of courtship rocks!! hahaha!! i dunno lang ha.. for me kasi old is better, yes yes there are new ways of doing it pero sablay yun eh. haha! parang mas sincere pa rin yung old style kesa bago. yung mga bago daming variations, hindi naman nagtatagal, hindi lahat in favor, pero sa old style kung sino man cguro i-court ngayon using old style matutuwa eh.. hehe. not sure though.
