About last night sa MOA, 5 kabataan namatay at mukang magiging 9 pa yata kc meron pang 4 nag hihingalo sa hospital at karamihan babae. Respunsibilidad mo alagaan sarili mo.. Kung my nangyari man syo un ay ka pa bayaan sa sarili... Una, Alam mong crowded sa lugar hindi mo kilala mga tao sa paligid mo pra lang mka jamming ka at masabi na cool ka, alukan ka lang ng liquid sa baso.. Ikaw naman si gago iinom ka, 2nd wag ka basta basta mag take ng E/ drugs na alam mo baguhan ka lang at di mo kaya... Always remember pag sobra sometimes nkaka matay. WAG KANG TANGA!! 3rd sa mga babaeng kabataan.. Please lang wag kyo pamigay at magpa loko,, pwde??? 4th sa mga kabataan na nag mamaganda at feeling nila nkaka sabay sila sa uso tigil na ninyo mga kabaliwan nyo isipin nyo mga magulang nyo, nag papaka pagod kumita lang ng pera pra my ma ibigay sa inyo ginagawa nila un kc mahal kyo, pero ikaw naman si bobo hithit lang ng sigarilyo, nag drugs, pag party "dont tell me di ka gagastos sa bar or kung san kang lupalop ng kapokpokan mo?" Kadalasan pera ng magulang nyo un diba? Hindi ba kyo na hihiya mga leche kyo... Tapos mag ririklamo kyo sa curfew mangyayari sa bansa??
