Dear Batman

 Dear Batman,

First of all, I want you to know that I’m writing you this letter because I have no idea on how to reach you. You never tweet or even have a facebook account. That is why I decided on making this to let you know how much of a hero you are to me and how you’ve made an impact not only to my life but to everyone.

Back when I was younger, my friends and I would dress up as superheroes and ran across the street like wild animals or something. It would always be your costume we’d be wearing. With capes and masks we would go around the village and pretend like we’re real heroes.  My favourite part of our batman portrayals would be the fighting scenes. Every fight scene is accompanied with loud “Zaps”, “Booms”, and “Kablams” which made it more fun and memorable. I cannot forget how I saw myself as a billionaire slash philanthropist who had a secret identity and was referred by many as “The Caped Crusader”. My childhood was filled with fun and unforgettable memories because of you and with that I am truly grateful.

Growing up, I realized that you were in everyone’s vocabulary. 

“May exam kami bukas. Bahala na si Batman dun!”

“Hay nako di pa tapos project namin. Bahala na nga si Batman!”

“Omigosh! I can’t focus with our thesis! You know na what to do Batman.”

From my classmates cramming for midterms to strangers I meet on my way to school. I guess they can’t help it but call you whenever they’re in need. 

But not everyone is aware of that and that bothers me. Some people say that you’re not good enough, that you have no special powers and you’re nothing compared to Superman and other superheroes. I totally disagree with them. I think you’re one of those characters that is more realistic. You may not possess superpowers and supernatural abilities or even fly for that matter but your use of your wealth, intellect, and detective skills to fight crimes makes you on the top of my list. And oh, your utility belts are kickass! Can I have one of those?

Now that I am older I know I will not be able to do the things I do back then. I could still wear Batman masks and run around with my cape, but that would be silly. The only thing that I can do is to be a hero in my own little way. To distinguish what is right from what is wrong and live with the principle of it and also to be the catalyst of change for myself and for my country.

Your impact to me resonates with this message: You don’t have to be a superhero to do extraordinary things, just be yourself and you’ll be able to do more than you could ever imagine.

You are more than a superhero to me Batman.

Your Greatest Fan,
Tobby

LSS: Crying Season by UDD

Nothing hurts more than the pain of not given the chance to say goodbye... UDD encapsulates such a journey of emotions around a sensitive topic with Crying Season---a tear-jerker of a track, one of my favorite song from their self-titled album. For context, below is an excerpt from Armi Millare's Facebook page posted on October 21, 2019, explaining the message behind the song. "I know it is midday, totally out of the blue but someone had asked about what Crying Season is all about. It was written for our fallen comrade, the band’s best friend-Sherwin De Guzman, and two other friends who had succumbed to their struggle with mental health. It has been difficult to grasp none of them are here to talk to us about it, but maybe let me try from my end of the spectrum." As someone who had a similar experience, I'll try to break down the lyrics based on my own understanding and from my perspective. Verse 1 Is this the end or beginning? The song starts with a question: Is thi...

My Unforgettable Pointwest Experience

-
Image
http://www.ericmackonline.com/ICA/BLOGS/emonline.nsf/dx/DrawingFishBowl.jpg/$file/DrawingFishBowl.jpg It is a tradition among Pointwest trainees to undergo the last stretch of their bootcamp training by having a revalida. Revalida is a rite of passage for trainees before they enter the corporate world (which in PW is also called as the “floor”). It is a Q and A portion of some sort where the soft skills of the trainee will be put to test over a series of situational questions. As per my usual self it was a difficult feat to venture into. I was not that eloquent and fluent in my articulation that sometimes I stutter and eat my words before these were even blurted out. The revalida is just simple. The trainee, before fishing out one question from a fish bowl will first have his bestest performance (this too I believe was included in the overall revalidation assessment) to knock the panel’s socks off. By the way the panel is composed of Practice Heads and Managers. So no stres...
