C for the alphabet and oc name thingy! :3

Something tells me you were fishing for a Catchingbird!

Catchingbird started her life in Windclan, sole daughter of the clan’s deputy Redflower. Redflower was a... demanding mother, to put it lightly, and expected the most out of her daughter, even as a kit. Catchingbird couldn’t keep up, and when she was apprenticed to her mother, it only became harder, especially with her less than ideal eyesight that was sensitive to the sun. Her constant headaches turned to migraines, painful to the point where she couldn’t leave her nest.

Enough was enough, and she personally talked to their leader, Boldstar about it, and ended up moving to Shadowclan to become a warrior there. She made friends, basically becoming sisters with Finchsong and Pineheart, and worked hard despite any setbacks.

Life as a warrior wasn’t very kind to her or anyone else there, time and time again the clan facing death at every corner from this or that, and it weighed heavily on her. She had a difficult time coping with everything, especially the death of another close friend, Chaosclaw (whom she felt she led to his death by encouraging him to join the clan along with her crush mate friend Salem). 

Eventually, she came to the decision to leave the clans altogether, with Salem by her side. Together, they decided to become kittypets, and are currently searching for somewhere to live out the rest of her days. She doesn’t regret her decision, but she will always carry the guilt of abandoning Finchsong and Pineheart and the rest of Shadowclan.

I never knew I (and my country) English-ed differently until today

As a previous colony of the USA, the Philippines is in the “outer circle” portion of Brah Kachru’s circles model on the spread of English. I have always thought that Philippine English is the same as American English — obviously, with slight deviations in pronunciation and fluency, depending on how it is taught. But apparently, certain aspects of Philippine English —which I have found normal this whole time, by the way— is found only in Philippine English. Although the basic rules are mostly American (we follow complete American spelling, grammar, and, supposedly, pronunciation!), there are these prevalent little quirks that truly define the Filipino-ness of Philippine English.

For one, there are lexis that mean differently in Philippine English as compared to the rest of the world. Words like dirty ice cream doesn’t actually mean that the ice cream is dirty or unclean, instead, it refers to the ice cream that is sold by street-side vendors. The adjective bold can have a sexual/scandalous connotation: being a boldstar would mean being naked or having an occupation as an adult film industry actor. We use green-minded to refer to someone being pervy — not someone being environmentally or economically mindful. The rest of the world says restroom? Here, we say comfort room. CR as an acronym. You say fridge? We say ref. 

Apparently, we’re also a fan of conjuring up new words and using well-known brands to refer to everyday items. We use the word holdupper to essentially refer to a person who commits holdups. A noticeable trait of Philippine English is the adding of the suffix “-er” to a verb in order to nominalise it. Meanwhile, things like Scotch tape, Rugby and Cutex are names of brands that are used to refer to adhesive tape, substances with strong smells which can make someone addicted to it, and nail polish in general.

There are actually a lot of food words in Philippine English that have also come from the other cultures and countries that are —or were— present in the country. Pandesal and ensaymada has Spanish origins, while Chinese foods like siomai, siopao, misua are a result of the assimilation of some parts of Chinese culture into the country due to the large population of Chinese-Filipinos in the Philippines. 

The way a statement is typically structured in Philippine English is also different. Philippine English tends to be wordy. Most people would rather use a phrase comprising of several words than just a single word with the same meaning, saying things like “at this point in time” instead of “now” without finding anything wrong with it. In fact, we like redundancy! Saying “Have you eaten already?”, instead of just “Have you eaten?”.

The way we say dates are also unique. Unlike American English, Philippine English orders dates as a MM-DD-YYYY — much like British English. And, specific to the Philippines, dates like February 23 are read as February twenty-three, not the twenty-third of February. Even the way February would be pronounced is different too! Typically, it would be said like feb-ra-ry instead of the American pronunciation of feh-byoo-eh-ree.

In general, Philippine English is distinct when it comes to the pronunciation of certain sounds or syllables, influenced largely by Tagalog and other Filipino dialects spoken in the country. A common thing would be to switch out /f/ for /p/, but withholding the blowing part aspect of /p/. So a friend will sound like prend. The consonants /θ/ and /ð/ would be typically pronounced with a /t/ and /d/ sound respectively. So tree and three would sound alike, while that would sound like dat.

But again, as a variety of english that belongs to the outer circle of Kachru’s theory, Philippine English is still very much influenced by American and British English. The internet has allowed the coexistence and interaction between these two varieties of English, leading to the assimilation of meme expressions and slangs belonging to other English-es into Philippine English. Especially with the younger generation, everyone will understand you when you start saying things like flex, spill the tea, triggered, etc.

Silent Sanctuary

Ang Silent Santuary ay isang 5-piece Filipino band. They entered the OPM (orginal Pilipino Music) scene in 2006 with their song “Rebound”, “Ikaw Lamang”, “Summer song”, “Kundiman”, and “Ingat ka”. Sa kanilang pangalawang studio album na tinatawag na Mistaken for Granted, ang unang single ng album ay tinawag na, "Hay Naku" at sa pangalawa ay tinatawag na "Hiling". Nabuo ang Silent Santuar noong 2001 na may tatlong founding member lamang, sina Norman Dellosa (vocals, guitars), Paolo Legaspi (bass,guitar) at Allen Calixto (drums). Bilang isang lumalaking banda, nag-eksperimento sila sa kanilang musika sa pamamagitan ng paghahalo ng mga klasikal na instrumento upang makagawa ng kakaibang tunog, idinagdag ang ikaapat na miyembro, ang kaklase ni Norman sa High School na si Anjo Inacay (cellist) sa line-up. Noong 2002 ay hiniling silang mag-guest sa UnTV’s in the raw kung saan hiniling ni Anjo kay Jett Ramirez na gumawa ng string arrangements para sa kanilang performance. Mas maraming string instrumentalist ang sumali sa kanila sa nag-iisang episode na iyon.

Eraserheads

Ay isa sa mga prominenteng banda na nabuo noong 1989 sa Unibersidad ng Pilipinas. Ang kanilang mga miyembro ay sina Ely Buendia (lead vocals, guitar) Marcus Adoro (lead guitars) Buddy Zabala (bass) at Raymond Marasigan (drums). Ang pangalan ng banda ay mula sa pelikulang Eraserhead ni David Lynch noong 1977. Nagsimula sila sa muling pag gawa ng kanta ng ibang mga artista at pag katapos nagsimula silang sumulat ng sarili nilang kanta. Noong 1993 una silang naglabas ng album na pinamagatang Ultra electromagnetic.

Parokya ni Edgar

Ay isang banda mula sa Pilipinas na nabuo noonv 1993 ng isang grupo ng mag aaral na galing sa mataas na Paaralang Ateneo De Manila. Nakilala ang banda sa kanilang mga orihinal na Musikang rock novelty at kadalasang paglapat ng kanta na hinangi sa sikat na mga kanta. Ito ay kinikilala at ginugunita para sa kanilang orihinal na bato bagonv bagay o karanasan Awit at madalas at mga katuwa tuwang mga pabalat ng album. Ang banda ay gumagamit ng ibang ibang estilo mula sa isang kanta sa ibang alternative rock sa poprock, kalungkutan sa rapcore at iba pa.

Rivermaya

Ay isang maimpluwensyang bandang pinoy alternative rock na nabuo ng 1993. Ito ay binubuo ni Mark Escueta, Mike Elgar, Japs Sergio, Jason Fernandez, Ryan Peralta at Nodby David. Ang kanilang musika ay nagbago mula sa ordinaryong rock, hard rock, pop, progressive at iba pa .

Itchyworms

Itchyworms ay isang Filipino Pop at Alternative Rock band mula sa Maynila. Kilala sila sa serye ng mga hit single mula 2005 hanggang 2010, kabilang ang "Beer," "Penge Naman Ako N'yan," at "Akin Ka Nalang." Ang mga itchyworm ay kinikilala rin sa pagkakaroon ng solidong lineup. Ang mga orihinal na miyembro na sina Jugs Jugueta, Chino Singson, Kelvin Yu, at Jazz Nicolas ay patuloy na nagre-record at nagtatanghal nang live na magkasama pagkatapos ng halos dalawang dekada mula nang mabuo ang banda. Ang longtime drummer ng Itchyworms na si Jazz Nicolas ay tumutugtog ng bass para sa Boldstar, isang Rock band kung saan ang kapatid ni Chino Singson na si Echo Singson ang lead guitarist. Si Nicolas ay isang session keyboardist para sa Eraserheads mula 2008-2009. Sinaway ng mga itchyworm ang stereotypical na hulma ng mga banda na kumakanta sa Tagalog. Nang hindi naglalabas ng mga ballad o gumagamit ng slapstick, nagawa nilang patuloy na pasayahin ang kanilang fanbase gamit ang mga mid-tempo rock na kanta na may sense of humor. Ang trademark ng Itchyworms ay pinakamainam na napapaloob sa pamamagitan ng kumbinasyon ng mga di malilimutang chorus, vocal melodies, at infectious hook na nakapagpapaalaala sa mga bandang Classic Rock. Sa 20 taon ng pagtatanghal sa ilalim ng kanilang sinturon, ang Itchyworms ay kabilang sa ilang piling Filipino Rock band na may malaking videography at isang malaking discography na kinabibilangan ng apat na studio album at dalawang EP. Bumalik ang Itchyworms sa pagsulat at pag-record ng mga kanta sa English at Tagalog para sa kanilang pinakabagong album noong 2013

Hello, Tmblr!

Guess what?? May f2f class na kami! Hahahaha yabang! Anw, hindi ko alam kung bakit pero hindi ako gano'n ka-excited noong nag-announce na may f2f class na... Siguro dahil two weeks notice ang announcement nila malamang garalgal kaming mag-asikaso ng school requirements, bale hindi pa nag-uumpisa pagod na agad. Badtrip pa dahil ang nipis ng tela ng uniform ko feeling ko boldstar ako na naglalakad sa daan. Nag-order din ako ng sapatos sa Zalora tama naman yung size, 39 kasi size ng paa ko. kaso ang laki pala ng sizing nung store na pinagbilhan ko so binalik ko pa. Hoping na lang talaga ako na sana mapalitan yung sapatos dahil lagot ako sa nanay ko.

So 'yun, pumasok na nga kami. First day nagdikdik kami ng tae haha char 1/2. Pero actually, medyo iyan talaga ginawa namin dahil fecal analysis ang activities namin. Buti nalang rin at nakatae ako ng bongga dahil bring your own tae kami. Nakakapagod. Ang daming restrictions. Hindi ko pa ma-gets 'yung ibang instructions sa activity sheet. Ang hirap pa gumalaw dahil paminsan minsan binabantayan kami ng prof ko, badtrip talaga!! Nakakainis pa kasi namantsahan ako no'ng lunch time. Natapon kasi 'yung sarsa ng ulam ko sa bag, e kinandong ko sa lap ko yung bag kaya ayun namantsahan, kulay orange pa! Grabe, imbyerna!! Natapos ang araw na tumambay kami ni Jam sa burger king. Wala kasing sakay pa-Express kaya nag-coke float muna kami at chumika.

Second day, naghanap kami ng parasites. Out of 16, mga 5 or 6 lang 'ata nahanap ko. Nahirapan talaga ako magdistinguish ng parasite kasi it looked the same sa other substances na nasa slides, plus hirap pa akong magfocus ng microscope. I'm just so grateful sa mga kaklase ko dahil they were giving me an answers. Ang bobo ko lang talaga dahil hindi ko agad pinacheck sa prof ko. Ayan tuloy, aabot pa ako ng next meeting. After ng class, nagpunta kami sa bluebay tapat lang kasi ng school. Daming tao, jusko!! Puro bata pa! Saglit lang din naman kami, hindi ko nga naubos yung lemon juice na iniinom ko.

Nakakapagod. Dalawang araw palang pero parang pang isang linggo na yung bigat ng pakiramdam ko. I feel so restless. I mean, masaya akong makita ang mga kaklase ko, gusto ko lang silang makakwentuhan maghapon. Masaya rin naman kapag may nakikita ako under the microscope or kapag nagagawa ko 'yung procedures... Pero at the end of the day, I didn't find the fulfillment that I was aiming for... HAHA tangina, ito na naman ako sa fulfillment na 'yan! Bakit ba ang hirap hirap para sa akin maramdaman 'yan? Hindi ko na talaga alam. Ang alam ko lang gusto ko ng umalis sa situation na 'to. Gusto ko na grumaduate, gusto ko na matapos 'tong ka-bullshitan na 'to!!
