Have you checked the first blog entries this March? It was written by my good friend, Queenie, short for Queen Latiffa or Natiffa. . . . It was enlightening really since in one way or the other, I have been a victim or should I say I have fallen in all of these Marjorie categories. Sad to say, in most of my fallings, it was me who really went down the drain since I have voluntarily engrossed myself in them.
Gaga, alam mo naman eh, di ba? di ba? kunwari ka pa. OO na, I would rather mark these experiences to be mine rather than yours hahahaha. I don't wanna deal with hallucinating hypsies. . . (short for Ilusyonadang Ipokrita), at least for now. One thing for sure, ang mga papang pangalawa such as the Tuna and the Cremdorie, eh ok na lang. Pero ang hindi mo talaga mapapatawad inday ay itong mga Mackerel na ito. They are known as Budburun.
Mackerels are famous as a canned food, cooked in brine or oil. Although now adays, in the Filipino context, they are all called Sardinas. Sardines though is a different kind of fish and does not belong to the Mackerel Family, nevertheless, the contextualization of its purpose is rather the same because this kind of fish have one thing in common, let alone, they taste like spoil of yesterdays' feast. So what would you do? If you are in your right mind, you will add spices and herbs to make it better though they are never and will never become the best. At least culinary history will tell you that.Sardines are the best in bottle, cut into pieces, added with herbs, spices, oil or brine, then voila, it go straight to a pressure cooker for an hour. Kumbaga sa pagkain, ang sardinas ay lutong lutong na. It has been processed well, kanya andami netong pinagdaanang init, lamig, at ibat ibang elemento para ito ay makain.
Ganoon din iyon sa mga Mackerel na Marjories. Ang mga mhin na ito, ay dumaan na sa ibat ibang klaseng pagsubok sa buhay na kung saan, ang mga pagsubok na ito ang naging dahilan kng bakit sila ganito. Minsan naging worse. Mga manggagamit, manloloko, mga cock teaser etc.

Sardines, were never been a main course. Most of the time, they are only served as appetizers or condiments. Its only the Filipinos somehow who made them as a special meal. Nevertheless, they are not like Tuna or Blue Marlins that are always served as a main courses. Hindi sila pang forever and ever amen. They are not Pangasius fillets or Cremdories who have good intentions somehow but are stuck to something else.
Sa buhay ng kabaklaan, we are always hooked into something we knew all along. Being hooked into a mackerels net is like being hooked into a fish cage. But then, you knew all along that while pursuing a mackerel as a bait, you will fall to the trap of the net. Ganoon kagaga ang mga bakla. Bakit? dahil masarap magkunwari ang mga Mackerel na ito. Kung minsan nga, hindi mo na alam kung ano ang totoo sa hindi.Puede kayong pagsabay sabayin ni Mackerel sa buhay nya. Look for signs and common language and reasons being used by these mackerel as an alibi. Alibis or reasons such as, hindi pa ako ready, Maghintay ka lang, hindi pa ako naka pag move on, doon din tayo patungo, I miss you, nagbabago na ako, i need you, sana huwag kang mawala, at kung ano ano pa, iyon ang mga sinyales na pinaglalaruan ka lang ng mackerel na yan. All along tatlo, 5, 10, ay naku madami kayo sa buhay nya. He is after for the free ride. Ikaw naman si gaga, wait ka naman. Trying to get out from your reverie by telling a friend but the next day, hayun, isang text ka lang . . . "andyan ka na naman, tinutukso tukso ang aking puso". Nakaka irita ka day.
Ito lang ang masabi ko sa iyo, kapag marami kang naibibigay na panahon, material na bagay at serbisyo sa Budburun na ito, ay naku, hindi ka tatantanan ng mga Mackerels. So iha, beware, silay mga isdang walang kwenta at hindi kaaya ayang ilagay sa hapag hapunan ng nagiisa. Puede mo silang isama lamang sa ibang mga isda na puedeng maging papa but never as a sole option in a menu. Take note, Don't make them be your main course. Puedeng maawa ka kung minsan, pero huwag kang mag paka tanga ha? Baka hindi mo alam, dahil sa kagagahan mo, pinag uusapan ka na ng buong sang katauhan.

May mga Mackerels na ding nagdaan sa buhay ko. But one thing for sure, hindi ako nagtatagal sa kanila. Maybe because men were always been my 3rd priority in this world. But I was happy then for a moment being with them. Talagang masarap silang kasama for a while until the dramas begins.
Next . . . . i will talk about the Tunas. . .
