Manny! Manny! Manny!

Tomorrow is the long awaited Pacquiao fight. It is absolutely insane how every Filipino person I have come in contact with is acting like this is their shining moment. It seems as though with every fight Pacquiao wins brings the Filipinos, as a whole, closer to the top of the latter of success. Don't get me wrong, I'm very happy that he's making a name for himself and representing the Philippines every step of the way. It is also rather exciting that he's a natural talent, and good enough to make it in the U.S. I would just like to see someone advance somewhere other than sports. I feel like people in the Philippines who try to make it big in the United States only try in the entertainment field.
