Are you a Yuppie or a Yuckie?



Sitting there in your chair waiting for your name to be called to receive your diploma, the scene of you inside your own office room, answering e-mails in your laptop and you walking along Makati towards your parked Black Jaguar, flashed in your mind. Then a tap from a friend’s shoulder zap you back to reality. All of a sudden, you began to get frantic thinking what lies ahead on your future? Would you be able to get a job right away or would you just add up on the thousands of bummer out there?
Would you be able to proudly say to everyone that “Hey World, I’m now a full-pledged Yuppie!” or… “Hey World, I’m now a full-pledged Yuckie!”?
Read on and get the lowdown that’ll help you distinguish if you’re really a Yuppie or a … Yuckie.



You’re a real Yuppie if:

· You’re walking along Makati wearing your best formal clothes.
· After office hours, you can be seen with your colleagues at a nearby Starbucks in your office.
· You earn at least 15,000 a month.
· You ride a cab on your way to work.
· You’re on the phone the whole day following up interviews.
· You’re stuck up in front of the computer typing the mountain-like file of the office.
· Your head almost burst out thinking of the piled up works that are needed to be done.


You’re a Yuckie if:

· You can be seen strolling on the mall sporting a ragged outfit.
· At the end of the day, you can be seen at a nearby sari-sari store chatting and laughing your heart out with your friends while feasting on an isaw (Chicken guts).
· You’re always waiting for the 15th to come so you can ask mom or dad for some dough.
· You ride an FX or Jeepney on your way to the mall. (talking about cash shortage).
· You’re on the phone the whole day killing time with your friends, gabbing about nonsense stuffs.
· You’re stuck up in front of the computer playing games or just hooked surfing on the net.
· Your head almost burst out thinking what you’re going to do for the rest of the day.

The Black Sheep

The night was getting deeper as I trudged along the dark alley leading to the apartment. The misty air and the stillness of the night bring back memories of the past. Memories that I have put on the back burner for a long time now. Memories that served as an envenom that is slowly killing and eating me wholly. Then rain drops started falling and before I knew it, thoughts kept flooding rapidly together with the rain. It’s the first day of my Senior year. I can’t describe the excitement I am feeling as my dad pulled over our Chevrolet in the school’s driveway. I hurriedly gave a peck on dad’s right cheek and went down to meet my friends and gave each other some updates on our summer vacation. The bell rang and we sped up to our rooms and faced our books. Another dreadful year in school again, but at least this will be my last year in High school. I am Eunice, the only daughter of two of the most successful entrepreneurs in the country. An average girl living a grandiose life. I was bo...

From Capeside to Cruise’s Heart

W ho would forget the girl-next-door from Dawson ’s Creek? Dawson ’s best chum who then became Pacey’s love interest. The bubbly, green-eyed girl in the titular waterway at Capeside who usually sports a tank top with matching faded jeans. And the naïve girl who sang Les Miserable’s “On my own” in her school in a squeaky, little voice. Yes, I’m pertaining to no other than Joey Potter, better known as Katie Holmes in real life. And this teeny bopper has actually transformed herself into a full grown actress, future Mrs. Cruise and a mom to be on her child from the latter. Katie Noelle Holmes was born and raised in Toledo , Ohio . And having been brought up in the country side probably gave an edge to her in portraying the role of Josephine Potter naturally. Also, during an interview by E! with the Holmes family, mom Kathleen referred Katie, the youngest in the brood in five, as the one who is the most headstrong that she even had to go out and buy some books which tackles...

The Fallacy on Homosexual Relationships: Is it Love or Lust?

It is still difficult to fathom why Homosexual love exists because since time immemorial it has been branded that Homosexuality is immoral and plainly wrong. Others relate Homosexual love to lust thus giving an impression that God strongly condemns this affection because lust is considered one of the seven capital sins which was later manifested through the fall of Sodom and Gomorrah. Others blatantly pronounced this act as ethically wrong and strongly stand on their views that there is no such thing as love between persons of the same sex and gays only misunderstood their sexual desire to love to give justification on their relationships. On the other hand, supporters of Gay, Lesbian and Bisexuals strongly articulate that such belief are nothing else but narrow mindedness and arrogance. Perhaps the first thing that one must determine in order to assert if Same-sex love is promiscuous is the question of Homosexuality. Some believe that “anything unnatural is sinful, and that ho...
