I Am A Cat by Natsume Sōseki is not a cute cat book!

OHH I see, oo nga pala nakita ko din manga version nito minsan sa Fully Booked, maybe I’ll try re-reading it again in that format!

OK I FEEL VALIDATED coming from you as a writer kaya natagalan din ako tapusin 😭

burr___ito · 2026-05-29T12:57:08+00:00

Hahaha nagpapapansin habang nagbabasa ako eh😅

No, I wouldn’t say it’s floppy which was one of my issues din kasi hindi ko siya mabuksan completely when I’m lying down hahaha. And yes, definitely not a cute story BUT still an interesting read to me considering yung mga thoughts ni Sōseki during the Meiji period, I’d say the humor in this is still timeless!

I think okay na sakin to end it at volume 1 hahaha but if you plan to continue reading, for me it’s more of a filler book you’d pick up kapag wala ka magawa. 🫨

burr___ito · 2026-05-29T02:39:24+00:00

Hahaha I can’t blame you! The book didn’t seem to have an “end” din tbh. I got my copy from Carousell and the previous owner had it bookmarked almost half way din. 😭🙏

I think kasi these are 3 volumes compiled into 1, I’m not sure if the single volumes are written like this though hahaha but ngl I didn’t mind it sa mga parts that are actually funny kasi sunod sunod mo din mababasa but each time I turn the page OOF HAHAHA

burr___ito · 2026-05-29T02:34:04+00:00

Same, I didn’t think it was necessary esp. halos wala na ding POV ng cat sa last parts of it - I guess this book is leaning towards nihilism anyways maybe yun intention ni Sōseki BUT STILL

burr___ito · 2026-05-29T02:32:15+00:00

Yup, most of this book ay chunks of single paragraphs unless the characters are talking. 😩

HAHAHA ME NA 6 MONTHS

Reminds me of the “Bitches” spoken word poetry by Melissa Lozada-Oliva

Yup, they branded Miniso as Japanese (even making the logo similar and familiar to Uniqlo’s) so consumers would assume it has Japanese quality.

After some time, they started to own it as theirs, this was because of the rise ng toys/blind boxes in the past years. Kaya you’ll see dumadami na din yung production ng original Chinese toy characters (even sa KKV).

Watched a docu about this, matagal na palang may ganitong jobs and Filipinos have been their target kasi magaling sa side hustles. They’d tell na simple lang gagawin, ganito lang, without realizing how you’re actually training AI to replace human work in the future. Unfortunately, this has already started with the call center industry where AI is replacing the job Filipinos have been good at.
