the future... down the drain

a friend gave me a link to a website that showed facebook notes from a certain Tracy Isabel Borres. her notes spoke of her experiences during an immersion trip required by ateneo de manila and after reading the first page i wanted to find out who she was, where she was located, hang her upside down, soak her in warm warm honey and feed her to the bees and ants and all of God's glorious stinging creatures.

plus, she had the audacity to ask for comfort. i wanted to take her to a cliff and push her over the edge and listen to the sweet sound of her screams before the inevitable thud.

she is the classic example of the youth today as i perceive them:
they feel like they know it all but they forgot the basics.
they feel like they are above everyone else but they never actually reached the top.
they wish for freedom but refuse to let go of their chains.
they want to be treated like adults but act like juvenile delinquents.

shame on her for reinforcing this belief about her generation.

is this what our future holds? it makes me wonder, will the future be worth waiting for?

You pretend you're anything
Just to be adored
And what you need
Is what you get
