HOLIDAY CONFUSION. Many have expressed confusion over the president’s penchant for moving the holiday to a Monday. Ninoy Aquino Day is supposed to be on August 21 but the holiday was yesterday, August 18. Heard outside a university yesterday:
Girl A: “Ngano wala man tay class ron?”
Girl B: “Holiday kuno. Ambot unsa nga holiday.”
Girl A: “Ay, di na kana importante kung unsang holiday, labad kaayo nas ulo ilang balhin-balhinon ang petsa. Ang importante wala tay class. Maka laag ta.”
NO APPRECIATION. At a mall yesterday, a group of teenage boys were heard discussing about the holiday:
Boy A: “Kanus-a man gyud diay ang holiday unta Bay?
Boy B: “Basta this week. Ambot unsang day. Unsang klaseng holiday gani karon?”
Boy C: “Morag Aguinaldo man siguro.”
Boy A and B: “Way klaro uy!”
