Pity you were not taught manners and respect huh ??
wut?
for me, a combination of lots and lots of playing single-player video games, and the fact that our elementary school decided to make a dialect-tax: for every word uttered in Bisaya (or Cebuano, for foreigners), we had to pay 1 Php. Most of us were "forced" to speak English, and I damn took pride in being able to speak fluently at the time. I heard some kids, however, had to pay 500 Php (or +11$ in current American Dollar Exchange Rate) before they could graduate.
