Read. Fresh from the source.

Blaming each other is what Pinoys do best. If you read the article linked above, you’ll see there the “versions” of various people on how the case should be handled, who to blame, and what the proper penalties are.

Don’t they see the point? It is not who’s responsible for the “accident” or the rightful punishment to whoever that must be taken into consideration. It’s the sad truth about the current situation of the Filipino people. A game show offering lots of prizes for everyone who doesn’t need to be anyone? It’s natural for thousands of hopeful Filipinos to respond to this. But why did they? Because poverty is written all over our country’s name, and for many, joining a gameshow, such as ‘Wowowee’ is a great opportunity, if not the last one, for them to possibly rise up from where they are. It’s about time the government makes a drastic move to save the Philippines. It’s about time the corrupt officials stop being selfish and actually see how they can help our nation’s problems.

Okay, I’m sounding very demanding here, when I, in fact, could not do anything more than complain about it. I’m just really sad as I come to learn more about this tragedy (at this hour in the morning!). And it’s sadder that I can’t do anything about it. I’ve (unconsciously) stopped seriously praying for the Philippines for a while now, and I think it’s time to be back on track. May we all find time to pray for our country. It’s the least we can do.

PS: Sensya sa super-serious mode. Hehe. Epekto ng Graveyard. Gtg home now. Bye.

WARNING: This is a LONG entry. I suggest you read this if you’re bored out of your mind and have nothing better to do. Otherwise, you’re just gonna find me and this entry cheesy. But if you’re just plain curious of what’s ahead, then that’s fine too. Hehe.

This is it. One more day and I will be successfully completing a week of no-absence-no-tardy streak. This is new for me since I’ve never achieved this yet throughout my stay here in this company. Haha. Pathetic. Some of you might say that I’m just overreacting, but you should know, I’m one of the most unpunctual people you’ll ever meet. So leave me be as I call this some sort of an achievement.

Can’t say it is easy though. At some point it is arduous. There are times that I have to jog from our apartment to where I’m supposed to ride a jeepney, then walk briskly from Jollibee in Acacia Lane to where I’m supposed to ride an FX, and from there, I hope against all odds that every traffic light I pass by is green and that the driver is aware that his vehicle can go faster. (Lest he doesn’t know how to step on his gas pedal harder.) Then from the point where I get off, I run toward our office building (simultaneously rummaging through my bag for my badge), and then, at that moment, I say a wish under my breath that when I get to the lobby I’m just in time to alight an elevator that is not going to stop at every damn floor on the upper rise.

It’s more than physically arduous really. It’s mind-boggling! Hehehe!

One more day and I’ll be passing this test of discipline I’ve put myself into. Oh yeah. I’m supposed to work tomorrow (which is a Saturday). Don’t even get me started on how I despise that company policy.

In case they’re lurking again – *Peace* sa mga boss ko! Hehe! Try ko po pumasok bukas. Hahaha!

{EDIT} 01.28.06- I’m here at work, and I wasn’t late! Yahooo!! Now, you guys can congratulate me! Nyehehe!{/EDIT}
