kitang-kita ko sa mga Fil-Ams kong relatives, they're hooked sa TFC at night, they do get togethers every saturday with pansit or palabok or bbq or kare-kare. they don't co-mingle with other races. so ano ba talaga ba't nasa America sila, purely for materialistic purposes na hindi fulfilling.

I was in the US 2010 and 2014 for over a month each, and I was surprised na mas may alam pa sila sa current events and showbiz kaysa sakin. eh kasi dito sa Pilipinas I only watch American tv series. pero ina-aaply ko sa filipino natutunan ko but not the extent of migrating there.

I thought of that before migrating in Tuscany for like 6 months, and also renting a Ferrari for 6 months and do wine hopping, then I saw this group of friends who beat me to my dream. nag Air bnb sila sa Tuscany only to see their photos lagi lang nasa Villa na may lumang swimming pool na may lumang house, it's Tuscany like no doubt, pero they're so boring, you can see in their faces that they are pretending to be happy. eh para ka lang pala nag-stay sa isang probinsya ng matagal eh lol. good for them showing my dream to me, ngaun hindi ko na pursue ang dream na yun coz it's pointless senseless meaningless for me. I'm not an Italian. sure I may have been a Roman in my previous life, pero why would I pursue that.
You got it brother...pointless and meaningless are the words that King Solomon used to describe these things.
