Political Mess

I was kinda excited to watch the live coverage of the SONA. I expected that the president will discuss a lot of things such as alleged corruption in her administration in her speech. Come on, it's her last SONA and I think it is but appropriate for her to clear things up before she step down the throne...it's not like being guilty of the crime...it's just enlightening the people of what really happened. It won't make her any less of a president to explain.

But instead...

She chose to portray the toughness and the firmness of her administration...as if saying I have not done any wrong...

Honestly, the speech was good......but it could have been better if it's TRUE. Come on madam president, you actually think that there is a decrease in the number of Filipino citizens who claim themselves to be poor? Tell that to the families along the streets and under the bridges. Tell that to the people who spend long hours under the cruel son just to have something in their table tonight. Tell that to a boy in Quiapo whose stomach hurts because the coins in his can is not enough for a descent food? Tell that to a farmer who is pushed to sell his land so that he can get his son into college. Tell that to the prostituted women and men who sell their souls in order to pay their tuition fees. WHO ARE YOU KIDDING?!

Don't get me wrong...I don't hate Gloria Macapagal Arroyo. She's a leader I admit... She just BUGS me sometimes. You know when you sit down and face a heap of assignments and these LIES penetrate your eardrums and mind..It's just unbelievably irritating and all you want to do is to blog how mad is the government for saying those things.


One thing more. Iam also pissed off with this man named Joseph Ejercito Estrada! He came to Baguio and delivered a speech in the University of the Cordilleras. Hahaha! Oh I hate him. He makes me laugh like crazy. Imagine, he talks about governance as if he had a good one. FYI mister FORMER president, in case you don't remember you were THROWN TO JAIL by the people! Remember EDSA DOS? Remember the JUETENG STUFF?

(sigh) I don't know what's the matter with these people. You're talking as if you're clean. You know what, do something nice...sit down or play DOTA. We may be disappointed with the Arroyo administration...but that doesn't mean that we want you back...cause honestly, WE DON'T WANT YOU EITHER! Don't play with us. You are no less than Gloria Macapagal Arroyo. You all contributed to this POLITICAL MESS.

Chemistry first long exam......HEARTBREAKER!

BLOODY!

We just had our first long exam in Chem. The results? Oh never mind...it's heartbreaking. Actually, I don't want to talk about it (honestly) but as I type on this stupid keyboard, all I can think is the two long...painful...cruel hours I just had. (sigh). I used to like Chem...well that was during my elementary years. The idea of memorizing the FAMOUS periodic table used to excite me...I thought like: "gosh, that is cool! Periodic table...Dalton...all these electrons and protons...AMAZING! I WANNA LEARN I WANNA LEARN!"
Poor little joy. Lies! come on, periodic table is unbelievably boring! Who cares about the nature of elements? the chemistry teachers maybe! To be honest, I feel like crying...Imagine, five BIG points will be deducted from my score simply because I did not follow the instruction: write the letter and its corresponding answer. DUH! well, yeah...i know...maybe I was just stupid. oh no...I mean PLAIN stupid. I should have read the directions before scribbling my answers...BUT! (oh yeah there's a big BUT again) You can't blame me...Gosh I was so nervous. My hands were trembling....promise! and as I looked at the numbers I felt dizzy. All I can do was to stare and guess what? haha! the questions just also stared back at me (crazy world).
I swear, I was good in Chem when I was in elementary (not that we had chem class before but you know my brothers would curse the subject every time they review and I was like: Manong, Chem is good! Chem is Interesting! Chem is wonderful) Swear! I'll bet my father's chickens. Of course, Now I know better...THEY WERE ABSOLUTELY RIGHT
Naaah! I'm just being bitter...I'm just being evil. You know, emotional breakdown... explosion and everything. Lesson: read the instructions first...joke.
Seriously: That's life sometimes you fall and stumble...sometimes you're at the top. If today you failed, tomorrow you're a day wiser. Keep on going. Be patient to the scorching sun and fix your eyes at the horizon for at the end a magnificent view awaits you. My first long exam in chem might be a HEARTBREAKER...but it does not mean that all of my future exams will be the same. I still love this life...and I mean it so much.

letting go.....

I was walking along an abandoned and lonely road. All I saw was a long and winding path ahead of me. My shadow was the only thing walking with me. The sun was so cruel...the breeze was so stingy...the sky was so hopeless. Still, I kept on walking. I did not know what happened. Next thing I knew was that I was standing before two seperated roads. I was confused. I looked sideways but still confusion ruled me. I asked myself: "what should I do?"

The first road was kinda more pleasing. It had trees and green grasses. While the other looked so depressing ...vague...and cold. I was so tired that I knelt into the ground. I looked at the first road again... I stared at it's moist ground. Then I noticed a set of footprints....your footprints. I realized that you took the first road... I waited...I waited for hours hoping that you would show up, offer me your hand and lead the way...but you did not came. Then I stood up and took the second road...hopeless and down.

I continued walking...with a hope in my heart that someday I will be able to find the reasons to be happy for myself. I continued walking...staring and looking beyond the mountains before me...with the hope that someday I will be able to smile and live again the way I used to before you came and changed everything.

There's no sense in holding on...There's no sene in looking back.... I need to cover my own road, no more remembering the past. I must let you go so I will also be free.

warrior

Every person is a warrior...a warrior who has been assigned to a mission by the general...God.

This mission can only be accomplished by the end of the warrior's journey. A warrior does not ask the General "why?" for he just accepts his assignment. Most of the times, your road will meet up with others and you can see other warriors struggling and fighting...but this only proves that ALL THE PEOPLE AROUND YOU ARE ALSO WARRIORS ...AND WE ALL SHARE THE SAME MISSION IN GENERAL The only difference is that we started in various points.

At the end of the road you will meet the general again.

You will say: " I did not know that the mission you gave me was about the history of myself."

Then He will touch you head and say: " You are my warrior and your mission was about your soul... it was about the realization of your identity. You may have made billions of mistakes which have delayed the success of your task, but I, as your General, have faith that you would make it. Those shortcomings of yours are nothing in my eyes...for I see you as my faithful warrior. Those obstacles and cobbled stones which have wounded your feet are only to test your endurance....They are my way of making you remember that Iam with you in your mission."
