My Tribe…..Philippines

Poty — Wed, 04 Nov 2009 06:00:37 +0000

“Proud to be and I’m not hiding it!”, a message from Allan of St. Pete, Florida along with his inspired by virtual game tattoo. His tattoo is a Philippine spaceship with 3 Stars and a Sun. Looking closely, you can see the Philippine Island inside the sun which greatly represents the country.

A very inspiring one especially to those who are virtual gamers. This one will make you think that Filipinos are very competitive and reigning even in the virtual world. And this is also one way of being nationalistic. Nowadays, even a three year old kid knows how to play computer games. We will not be surprised if one day Filipinos are among those whom what we call “Game Masters.” So keep the spirit, represent your country, fight for your country and be proud of it!

There was this song with lyrics “babalik ka din” that pertains to those Filipinos who are in abroad. The message is that no matter how far you are you’ll still be back to your homeland.

Same as what’s happening to Tyler right now. Looking back at your homeland is just as good as saluting proudly to what you really are.
