EN: a plan that won't happen, a flaked plan
The slang meaning that hits too close to home. It's for all those group chat plans that start with "Tara, kape!" and end with... nothing. It's the official term for all the "see you soon" promises that get lost in the void. "Drawing ka na naman!" means "You're all talk, no action!"
Semantic shift from the literal English "drawing", possibly implying the plan only exists "on paper" or as a concept and not in reality.
Extremely common slang, especially among younger generations.
