It's a bit ironic, the title...this isn't my jacket, it's Leon's. We bought it during our trip to the Philippines this past July (see those posts here). We were checking out souvenirs and such, and then he said that he found the Philippine flag's colors really nice. After seeing this jacket - well I guess I have more appreciation for the colors as well...red, blue and gold. Really pretty if they do it right!
The truth is, sweeties, I don't feel patriotic to any country. I guess I'm what you call a drifter? It's because, well, I'm from Macau first. I'm not really loyal to my parents' country, the Philippines because in my whole lifetime I've only lived there for five years. I'm also not partial to China, because Macau is not China, not totally. And Macau is not a country either. Macau is home though. But I think sometimes that it's for the best, because I think it's made me open to different cultures. I'm more accepting, in a way, and that's a good thing. Also, I could live in another part of the world, and there won't be that super heartache for the motherland. Just for home. And that's another tidbit about me today! Till next time sweeties =) - Che
