"Are you talking about the parliament? WALA akong alam dun!"

Last night, GMA-7 aired the last part of their election special. The show was entitled "ISANG TANONG" which was sort of a forum attended by ALL senatoriables with credible newsmen as their panelists. If you happened to watch the 2-part special then by now you must've an idea who deserves to be in the senate. The first part (aired last Sunday) was more intellectual than what I saw last night. Well, in my point of view last night's show was amusing because of the presence of the new breed of senatoriables with the likes of Montano, Gomez and my fave... Victor Wood. Here are some things I remembered from the show:

Gomez - gave straightforward and acceptable answers to questions you'd never knew he'd give a care bout. I actually think that he did quite well and was able to come up with intellectual answers.

Montano - a bit clueless as usual. Good thing nobody asked him again about extra-judicial killings because I swear I will jump in my television and strangle him if he says "GUTOM LANG 'YUN!", which he said beofre in a presscon... Anyway, when he picked out a question asked by a senatoriable on how he can guarantee the people an honest election after suspicions of fraud and massive cheating, he just said: "I don't wanna sound spiritual but we just need to pray." Indeed we must pray that no one can a steal a seat in the senate and waste our country's resources by doing absolutely NOTHING. I can not take one more apology if ever.

Singson - "You were known to be the whistleblower during Erap's time at nilabanan mo ang pangungurakot noon, sa administrasyon ngayon kelan ka kaya aamin sa katiwalian ng mga nakaupo sa pwesto???" whew, the look on Chavit's face after the question was thrown at him was just priceless!

Coseteng - i can't get what she was saying because she was too nervous (i think, well judging from her gestures) to answer.

Lozano - blah blah blah. Good questions, weird answers. Totally stuck in the Marcos years still.

Pichay - his wave at Tessie Aquino after picking her question was just too distracting and funny! hehehe, like a li'l boy waving to a li'l girl only to sa na "yuhoo! kulelat tayo sa survey! ano gagawin natin?" hay naku, di pa siya nagbibigay na sapat na plataporma kung paano nya matutupad mga pangarap ng Pinoy. Paano pala kung pangarap ko maging next gf ni Prince William, magagawan ba niya ng paraan? Kasi if yes, then itatanim ko na siya sa Senado! :)

Tessie - tessie, tessie, tessie... you ruined everything the moment you apologized (with matching tears pa) years after you did that during one of the most crucial times in Pinoy politics. Just dance, will you?

ang paborito ko sa lahat ay walang iba kung hindi si...

Victor Wood - ""Are you talking about the parliament? WALA akong alam dun!" DUDE, paano ka magiging senador kung yun lang di mo masagot. Hindi lang kagustuhan tumulong ang kailangan para maging senador ka. You have to know these things. Goodness! even my sister who is just in grade school answered that question pointblank when it was thrown at you. Walang keme niya sinagot ang pag-aamyenda ng konstitusyon at charter change. At dahil doon, she gets my vote. TSONG, you can't just be idealistic and preach na we need change. We get that, but what truly is your agenda to back that up. Be realistic and next time know what you're talking about. If you get elected then man, even though I'm completely anti-chacha, I'd wish for a parliamentary form of government and the abolishment of the upper house.

SERIOUSLY...

Only 2 get a thumbs up from me:

Cayetano and Escudero schooled all of them. Their young, intelligent, and brave. They gave the most satisfying answers that anyone belonging to any class will understand. I'm relieved that they made it worth watching rather than turning the whole thing into farce. Promising but there's still a lot to see. If they get elected, I hope they live up to the expectations and do good things for the country...seriously!

ALSO...

It was fun to see the broadcasters try so hard to control their expressions in their dismay. But some answers are just too.......! yun na!

THANK YOU to GMA-7 for coming up with that. Truly, it is a big help in deciding who gets our votes. I hope you do this every elections. and next time, if possible, air it on an earlier time and on a saturday so that more voters can watch. We need this so that we won't the same mistake of electing the wrong person over and over and over.

I hope this election will really change the way things are done around here...

INSOMNIA

I can't sleep.

Summer always brings to mind such fond memories ive shared with the bestEST person ive met in this planet. Being cousins are a given, but i think that we have a special bond that no one in this world could've ever experienced. Kim is my bestest bestest best friend in the whole world. We've had the greatest adventures and best memories ever that even alzheimer's can't take away. (;p) Although we're miles apart, the love and care will always be same. We are always for each other in good times and bad. Not to mention the inumerable stories and mushyness we've shared. Thank God for technology and the internet now we get to talk more often. Someday, I know, we'll still each other and have even more adventures! I can't wait to go to France with you! hehehe :) Don't worry kimmie, that will happen :) By the way, im'ma proud cousin right here! --> chech out her site (http://isaia.deviantart.com).

Awesome artworks! that's my cousin y'all! hehehehehe :)


Me and kim... a million light years ago:)



She drew this for my birthday! best present evah! :)
***the drawing is all about the adventures we had together when she was still in the Philippines. This came with a poem as well. ***

1 step forward, 2 steps back...

I'm afraid that I'm leaving a man behind.

Indeed, I have travelled far and wandered aimlessly. but I still got to where I wanna be. Someone made me realize that I am already in a place where my hardwork and sleepless nights (not to mention eyebags!) paid off yet it doesn't feel so great because I'm leaving a man behind. It was never my intention in the first place. I never meant to elevate my stature and lower someone else's. I just simply swam to shore while he drowned in his problems and sank. Still, it was not enough to kill his spirit which is more admirable than my achievements. Anyway, it's too early to say what the end will be. Graduation does not guarantee success, a mighty heart does. Surely our odds go up once we received our diplomas, but never will it define us as persons. But what a person becomes because of his perseverance and sacrifices are far more important than any medal or recognition. I might be leaving someone behind but I know he can make a quick run for it and get back on track. Everyone has their own pace, own time.

**ahem!!! i'm sorry...my boredom's making me eeeeek-ingly(!!!) sentimental**

baby turn around and let me see your sexy body go...BUM BUM BUM!!!

I'm a certified bum! kasama na sa nagpapadagdag sa unemployment rate ng 'Pinas! i don't like to think that it's a good thing because i'm beginning to get rusty. If patagalin ko pa to...I'll grow up to be a big-bellied old woman who enjoys munching chips while watching late-night tv all her life. But that's an isolated case i don't think anyone ends up that way. :) seriously, i just need to make the most out of the short time i have to replenish whatever was sucked out of my system and get going with my career! hahahaha :) can't believe my batchmates and i are NEARLY career women! hehehehe :) parang kelan lang nang-boboycott tayo...hahaha! now, we're actually going through this whole career moves shiznit. Goodluck to all of us and our future that awaits us! by the way, sa mga unang makakatanggap ng paycheck i'm just a text away :)

also... because of this brief hiatus i was able to make the internet my best friend and voila! i'm blogging again...medyo nilangaw yung index ko for quite some time kasi i was busy-busyhan with school. so there guys! i'm gonna add more entries i hope you all have a high tolerance for kathy g's nonsense... miss you all! :) *queso*

no more school! :) no more allowance! :( hehe

i still remember how i dreaded going to school especially when vacations are cut short. I used to complain everytime i have to wear the uniform during the hot months of march and april. But now I've no more school and no longer do I have to wear my uniform! After 16 years of studying...i finally graduated! hehehehe :) I never knew that this day would ever come. Long school days have the tendency to piss off an impatient school girl ;p

Wearing a toga for the first time helped me absorb another transition in life. This was the only time i realized that i am adding to the unemployment rate in the Philippines. I finally graduated and it feels great! NO more school! but the sad thing is: no more allowance and bigger responsibilities! oh-no!!!

But before i jump to another page, I'm just going to enjoy my break and take a breather... Cheers to all the graduates of 2007! partei on!!!!! :)

the most awaited! hehehehehehe!:)

no better way to celebrate than some sing-along..birit baby! :)

drama queen :)

the recent events in my life made me something i've soooo long hated...a drama queen! things happen so quickly that my system doesn't even have the time to absorb each. As a result of this, i'm now an emotional wreck. Alot of good things happened that I didn't even mind appreciating. While the bad always ruin my day. Kung kelan pa naman ako ggraduate o! tsaka pako nagka ganito. Pero di naman lahat ay kasalanan ko...there are people and situations that greatly affect me! All you haters better not be hanging around me...I used to be a jovial person, at least leave me that...

This is also a transition stage for me so I guess it's also one of the things that's making me gak! I'm doing my best to bring back old sunny happy me. It will take a while but I'd rather go through a process than cheat my way to it. I'm just sorry for my friends who are affected because of my kaartihan...but they'll understand I'm sure...otherwise pag-umarte din sila irereport user ko sila sa friendster! wahahahahahaha :) I'll be better!
