Gossip Girl Sounds Like A Disney Sit Com Compared To This...

Yesterday, I went out for a late lunch with Xochi and Mike in Trinoma. We were surprised to find out that there was no aircon in Italianni's and the rest of Trinoma. WHAT THE HELL? It's a new mal, supposedly. We tried calling Mark (the operations manager) but we can't get hold of him in his mobile phone. Xochi told me he's in Boracay and we immediately thought he turned off his cell phone, trying to be oblivious to the rest of the world. He shouldn't have: TriNoMa is such a mess. (Hey...now I wonder if TriNoMa stands for Triangle North of Manila and it is apparently so. Just like MoMa, which stands for something of Makati. Hihimatayin ako sa mga Pilipino talaga.)

Anyway, the conversation went to this scandal which is racking up the gossip columns right now. True enough, it's the real life version of Gossip Girl (it's a sitcom about the trashy lives of the upper west side party elite). I was reading the post and I couldn't help but snigger from the comments made against these people. I am glad this scandal happened because I don't think these people should be a role model for the youth. Tim Yap, for example, has been the "party icon" for a while. Everyone is trying to emulate his fashion sense, finding out his itinerary for the weekend and one stupid network even gave him a TV show gig. Celine Lopez have been a fashion icon in the Philippines. Her travels across the world had been one of the highlights in Star. Nobody asked her where she got the money for this but, after reading this blog/rant space and the revelation that she is actually not a Lopez, a lot of people are raising eyebrows.

Now, everything is going to the dogs for them. Thank you for doing drugs and for swindling a really upset Aussie. I hope Filipinos would turn their heads away from these false icons and start focusing in making a better Pilipinas. Sayang lang sa oras ang mga taong 'to. There are still a lot of things to do.
