Sulat para sa 'ulirang' estudyanteng anak

Funny and sad. Similar to Bebeng, the US-based nurse, this is another satire of how we value education. Parents will do everything just to be able to send their children to school.

Dear Anak,

Naipadala ko na 50 thousand pesos na tuition fee mo, panagbili na namin ang mga kalabaw natin. Ang mahal pala ng kursong COUNTER STRIKE, wala na din pala tayong baboy naibenta na din para dun sa sinasabi mo na project nyo na NOKIA N75, ang mahal naman ng project na yun. kasama din ang 7 thousand dun para sa field trip nyo sa MALL OF ASIA. Anak malayo ba yun mag ingat ka sa pagbibiyahe mo.

Isasanla palan namin ang palayan natin para mabili mo na ung instrumentong I-POD na kinakailangan mo sa laboratory nyo. Anak komportavle kaba jan sa boarding house mo? saan ba kamu yang VICTORIA COURT maganda ba dyan? di ba mainit jan, anak?

kamusta na pala yung group project nyo na SANMIG LIGHT napailaw nyo na ba? mataas ba nakuha nyo na grado dun?

Anak sana bago pa maubos ang lahat lahat ng ari-arian natin ay maka gradweyt kana. Walong taon ba talaga ang kurso mo sa SECRETARIAL? Sana pag graweyt mo makakuha ka ng trabaho kaagad kagaya ng manager ng kumpanya para mabawi natin ang mga ari arian nating sa sanglaan.

Ay cya nga pala anak diba sabi mo sa JOLLIBEE / MAK DONALD ka palagi kumakain? Ok ba naman sayo ang mga ulam dyan baka hindi masarap kawawa ka naman. Eh yung school bus nyo na TAXI sabihin mo sa driver mag ingat cya sa pag dri-drive.

Anak hanggang dito na lang at sa susunod ay ipapadala ko sayo ang pera na pambili mo ng ALTIS na gagamitin mo sa VACANT SUBJECT mo.

Ang nagmamahal
Itang at Inang

P.S. Anak mag aral ka ng mabuti.

Lanford Wilson (1937)

One of the founders of the "off-off-Broadway" theater movement, Wilson began writing plays in 1962 and helped found the Circle Repertory Company in 1969. His plays frequently address themes of decay, solitude, and loss, and are known for their realistic dialogue in which monologue, conversation, and direct audience address overlap. His Pulitzer Prize-winning Talley's Folly depicts the post-Vietnam War world of a Southern family. What Russian work did he translate for the stage? More... Discuss
