The Pabebe Generation

We all know our generation is full of surprises. You don't know what to expect. Teenagers are getting pregnant, reckless, inconsiderable, barbaric (sometimes, come on admit it) and pabebe. 

I know that you know who are they. They are the internet sensation today. These girls uploaded a video and Vice Ganda and Kim Chiu went crazy over them. According to Rappler, they are the pair from Bulacan are "babaeng walang kilay" (girl with no eyebrows) and the "babaeng utal," (stuttering girl) as they've named themselves on the first "pabebe video," posted on Facebook by user Senyora Santibañez. In the video, they told people to leave them alone for being "pabebe," or cute, saying "walang makakapigil sa amin." (No one can stop us. Many netizens were annoyed for their pacute video. But, even local celebrities gone crazy and imitate the Pabebe Girls. (Here's the Youtube link for the Original Pabebe Girls' video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T_2XG8HaF1Q)


This video went viral and was said to be the response for the another viral video calling the "Mamon Girl." In her video, Mamon Girl acts cute while eating mamon from a popular bake shop. We all know that none of us could stop them. That's why they said, "Walang makakapigil samen." Whoa there girls. These girls' video got many parodies over the internet and as of today, there are 3 cutipatootie foreign little girls who copied them and titled as "Pababy Girls".(Here"s the link for the Pababy Girls' video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ijj9Z2an7oY)


Our generation has a lot to expect. As said by Dr. Jose Rizal, "Ang kabataan ang pag-asa ng bayan". Looks like he's wrong there. We visited his museum last month and this was pinned in the comment section of the place. 



We must be aware of our actions as of today people. WE are the hope of our generation. Don't make it worse, or worst will come. Wake up and be the generation Dr. Rizal expected us to be. There are things that matters more than to get thousands of likes on Facebook, followers on Twitter, Instagram, twerking on Youtube, etc. It's not what is IN in society. Be aware.
