Blogging Qatar

I could write this as a BLOG entry but since it made me feel queasy in a way...I think I'll post it here: Got invited in a birthday gathering and most of the service crew were "kabayans". Since I arrived late due to traffic (imagine that! Traffic in Doha!!!), said hello to the other guests...kwento dito, kwento doon.

This picture was taken on 16th March 2007 around 1130am. We were on our way home when I spotted this lonely man waiting patiently for the bus to arrive (which I presumed to be around 12nn). Bravely he succumbed to this intense heat and strong sandstorms just so he could avail of this once a week break from work. Friday is considered to be the weekender in Qatar. Almost everybody is looking forward to window shop in Suoq, to stroll & picnic along Corniche West Bay Area, to take pictures in all round-abouts or in the plazas or places where beautiful flowers abound.

This was sent to me by a friend when i was still back in the Philippines. When this forum topic about Discrimination started, I thought of this and find myself smiling.

This was written by a black guy in Texas and is so funny. What a great sense of humor and creativity!!!). But since my color is somewhat lighter, I've changed the word from "Black" to "Brown" to make it more applicable to my own race.

When I born, I brown,
when I grow up, I brown,
when I go in sun, I brown,
when I cold, I brown,
when I scared, I brown,
when I sick, I brown,
and when I die, I still brown.

You white folks....
when you born, you pink,
when you grow up, you white,
when you go in sun, you red,
when you cold, you blue,

Don't you believe that we rock!!!

It would be cool to put a QL username to a blog!
