my parents called me narrow minded nung tumuligsa ako sa gusto nilang rotc at course sakin yet people here want to glorify them

Well, it's wrong for your parents to think of you that way, and it's wrong for people here to glorify them and put them on a pedestal.

i think that family culture also contributed on why we prefer eating with barkada together, whether we deny it or not. syaka sana din marealize na di lahat gusto ganun lalo na pag disfunctional set up

Siguro di nga siya ideal for a terribly dysfunctional family, but for most people, it's a chance for their family to spend time together even for just a few minutes.
And pwede naman factor din yung family tradition na yun on why we prefer eating with our friends, pero for me, mas more siya on not feeling alone. Ako kasi may time noon na I dreaded eating by myself lalo na kung ang mga katabing table puro barkada kumakain, masaya, maingay, at enjoy na enjoy. Feeling ko I'm so alone and I'm so pathetic sitting there, not having anyone with me. Siguro ganun din iniisip ng mga nakakakita sa akin. Now, though, di na big deal sa akin kung mag-isa man akong kumakain knowing nagkataon lang wala yung mga friends ko. Basta ba masarap kinakain ko. 😸

https://twitter.com/lakwatsarah/status/1566667025304342528?s=20&t=dZOeFvbVU1wirvq9tn3eQA this is because of the family culture na sabay sabay dapat kumain na promoted ni sharon cuneta sa lucky me. they will think bad of you, if you just want to eat with peace

Well, maganda naman layunin nung from time to time the family eats together lalo na since everyone is so preoccupied with his and her own life. Kung baga, it's one of those rare times they can be together in one place to bond and catch up. Siguro wala lang sapilitan if you're not hungry yet, or if you're not really in the mood to eat.
Tungkol dun sa tweet, I think it's not about this family culture of sharing meals together naman, but about people coming to the conclusion that eating alone in public seems pathetic, na parang ang kawawa mo tignan na wala kang kasama while yung iba by group kumakain. That kind of thinking could be wrong, though, for di naman at all times kasama natin friends and family natin, and sometimes, we really just want to eat in peace, like the tweet says. Importante, we enjoy our meal whether we have company or not.

we dont do birthday parties or we dont invite friends, thats why i feel uncomfortable if someone greets me because of the obligation to respond and may hihingin na kapalit pa.sometimes good din na wag i update bday sa fb eh, para walang bati nang bati sayo na di naman close

Iba-iba talaga ang tao, I guess. Ako naman, I'm not much into celebrating birthdays din, pero okay lang naman sa akin if random people would greet me. Pero mas maganda nga siguro kung wala yung birthday updates sa FB especially for people like you (though may option to hide your birthday naman). That way, only those who truly are close to you will possibly greet you. It's their thought that matters naman, and not those of people you hardly know.

Vacation or Staycation?

Vacation, of course. While I love staying at home, getting the chance to travel and see the sights, and to relax and enjoy is absolutely always welcome.
Vacation or Staycation

Maybe we should just "love" someone. No expectations, no demands. No "how can I have him/her?". No "why can't you love me back?". No "please be mine". Maybe we can just love them as they are without treating them as something that we should have for ourselves. 🙃

That would be love at its purest, when you're completely happy just to see someone happy.

Mamalasin ka buong ber months pag di mo nilapag favorite ice cream flavor mo!

Ube, Mango, Double Dutch, Coffee Crumble, and Durian. Sorry, hirap i-narrow down to one. 😸

sa pamilyang konserbatibo, wala na disiplina pag puro tiktok kaya push nila ang rotc

Ewan bakit ROTC agad naiisip nilang solution pag sinasabing wala ng disciplina kabataan ngayon. Discipline starts and is instilled at home. At dahil nakapag ROTC lang di ibig sabihin magically magbabago na totally ang isang tao. Maganda ang layunin ng ROTC lalo na if implemented right, and if we can guarantee it'll be free from abuses, but it's not an instant cure to a perceived problem in today's youth.

sa pamilyang konserbatibo, walang difference ang mga ideology. lahat ng aktibista sa kanila ay considered na as npa o rebelde

Oo, automatic na ata sa kanila na once you're involved in activism, communist ka na and anti-government. For them, masama ka na without even considering what you are fighting and standing for.

have you searched horseshoe theory, dun makikita similarity ng nga marcos apologists at leody supporters

Now ko lang actually tinignan na na-mention mo. Yung polar opposites pala aren't so different pala, so it seems.

madami talaga tao sa ask ang gusto inaapi o inaabuso ng pamilya because of their concept of honor and respect. sadly ganyan din sila sa magiging anak nila

Well, di din naman siguro nila gustong inaapi o inaabuso sila ng own family nila, if ever man inaapi o inaabuso nga sila. Mali lang siguro yung pag balance nila ng respect and honor nila towards their family, especially with their parents, with the way they are actually treated by them. I mean, if you're being maltreated or abused, and you stay silent about it because you believe in respecting them as they are your very own family, then there's something very wrong with that.
Di madali harapin yun lalo na family mo yun, of course, pero mahirap din if you just tolerate it and be passive about it, kasi sadly, baka maging vicious cycle lang yun once you start a family of your own.
Anyway, kung matino family mo, never nila gagawin yun sayo, pero if ever nagagawa nila without actually knowing ganun na pala actions nila sayo, then they will at least listen if you pour out all those bottled up emotions to them, kung matino nga sila.

do you easily get annoyed to ignorant people

I'm only human, and I admit that I do tend to get annoyed by people who we might find ignorant.
This is especially when they act like they are always right, and that they know it all when the truth is, they're just grandstanding and making a fool of themselves.
I really try to be patient, of course, and as much as possible, I try not to be as judgmental towards them as well as we really have no right to do so, and it's just not the appropriate thing to do since we don't even know them at all. Besides, they might actually be way better than me in some ways for all I know. Like I've said, though, I'm only human, and try as I might, I could only take so much.
