Any other #Filipino Americans on the #Fediverse? Our hyphenated experiences are similar and different all at once.

Can someone tell me why FilAms don't do research properly? #Filipino #Philippines #FilAm
I'm not fluent in #tagalog but I'm trying to learn. One of the most difficult things is trying to find podcasts/tv shows to help with daily immersion. Anyone got good recommends?
The longer the podcast episodes the better. I'm more than happy to subscribe to a patreon but refuse to join Spotify - which most of them seem to be exclusives of.

Fun, casual dinner at our favorite NYE spot -- Ramen Shop. A super chill way to ring in the new year in the neighborhood with old and new friends!
Feeling grateful and blessed.
Happy New Year, #Fediverse. Let's make 2023 the year of change!

While I'm in a bit of a bah-humbug spirit and will be spending the weekend with a bottle or two of good champagne, a stack of holiday cards, Amazon Prime, Sees Candy, and cake, it's nice looking at how other folks on here are doing the holidays.
Merry Merry on the Eve of the Eve!

I also like typing in random tags to see what I get, like #Desi - no idea who uses that tag but I'll check it out and see who's there.
Many thanks to the nice ladies at my nail salon who don't say anything when I totally fall asleep in the massage chair while my nails dry.

I'm a chaos monster, so I'm reading the stories in Pasko Na, My Love out of order. I started with Mia Hopkins' contribution.
They're all interconnected, but I'm following the characters just fine.

My uncle Voltaire de Leon introduced me to the writing of Carlos Bulosan when I was younger. I read Bulosan's America is in the Heart and it put me on a path that I have been on ever since; finding my own place in this land that my family adopted and that adopted me.
I was not aware of this piece by Bulosan, a companion to the famous Norman Rockwell painting. His words still ring true today. The struggle of finding our place continues still.

My father, who recently passed, had been a television director and producer in the Philippines just as the country was shifting into its television era during the 1960s. He left us with an unfinished autobiography (somewhere, I still have to find it) which focuses on his broadcast industry experiences. Only two chapters. I'm at a loss as to what I should do with it though.
