the top ten things i learned from heneral luna
1. Ensaymada goes with everything. Even British tea and crumpets.
2. Aim before you shoot. Don't waste bullets.
3. No one is above the law. Not even the President.
4. Filipino women have the biggest balls of them all. They will stand their ground fighting in the trenches, even as other soldiers desert their posts. They will run under heavy fire to rescue the wounded from the battlefield. They will tell two men too busy in a dick measuring contest to stop acting like children. Filipinas ain't got time for bullshit; they got a war to win.
5. Listen to Apolinario Mabini - he's the truest patriot and the real brains of your outfit.
6. You cannot catch the wind. You don’t need a Mabini to tell you this.
7. You cannot fight both against your enemies and your allies. Nakakapagod. (It’s exhausting.)
8. You can quite sequester this train! You can run out of English! Nosebleed! Punyeta.
9. When assigned a near impossible task (such as getting 2000 volunteers to dig your massive defensive trench), just ask for three days. You can get it done.
10. You cannot claim to be a true Filipino patriot if you cannot choose between your self interest and your freedom, your nation or yourself. Choose wisely.
