Gloria: bad president.. or not?
According to my friend, Sarah Capili, President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo is small but terrible. Terrible... for corrupting the Philippines. She also stated that, right now, the Philippines is the fourth most corrupt country in the world. She is blaming the president for this matter. I asked myself.. is the president really the cause of all of these problems? I guess some of this is partly her fault for letting corruption worsen in the Philippines, but I don't think that corruption is mainly her fault. I heard my titas talking about the election and they ran into the issue about Gloria being corrupt. They said that one official (I didn't heard his name) complemented the president because she is the only president who sought for the Philippines' development. While she was in Singapore, the president said "I want the Philippines to be better than Singapore". That's a very tough thing to say. Singapore has a very successful economy and making the Philippines that successful is already very difficult but saying that she wants the Philippines to be better than Singapore, that's almost impossible! She is very determined to make the Philippines improve.
Now, why does she have a bad reputation? That's because of the Philippines, itself. When they see the president become good in her job, they try to bring her down. They create scandals that will bring the reputation of the president to trash. The most famous scandal is the "Hello Garci" scandal. The content of this scandal is really devastating to her career. But how did this scandal rise? It's a private phone call yet it reached the media.
She has done many development to our country. During President Erap's time, the Philippines has experienced a major downfall. President Gloria has brought the Philippines back on track. Yet, we never appreciated all her efforts to make the Philippines better. All we see are her faults. We cry for change and development but when change comes to us, we throw it aside.
So now, do you still think that Gloria is really a bad president? Why and why not?

shake it like a PROM PROM
Hahaha! Cool title! It fits the song's name! Hahahaha! Hahaha! Haaaaaaa....... OK! Done laughing.
So, as the title "suggests", this blog is, yes, about prom. My friend, Robelle, inspired me to write a blog about it. In my previous blog, I spoke about my bitterness because of not being able to go to prom. Luckily , I was able to go! So there, My mom woke me up early. It didn't cross my mind that I'm going to SUFFER in waking up because of prom. I thought that my mom would wake me up later that day. So I took a bath first then...on with the make up! So yeah.. she put curlers on my head. It looked weird, by the way, but I guess It's part of the "process". After eating breakfast, my mom started putting make up on my face. My make up was ALMOST DONE! ALMOST DONE! Then... she put the fake eyelashes. The glue scattered on my eyelids! I mean, come on!! We were almost done! So, we started all over again. So... in the end, my mom realized how hard a make-up artist's job is.
We arrived very early at Sofitel. So we took that chance to take some pictures around the place. One by one, my classmates started to come. We first saw a girl with glasses and fine straight hair. Then, I realized.. it was Hedda! lol. Nice hair Hedda. Then the SMYM. They look dashing with their suits on. All the boys looked rather dashing but quite shorter than usual. I guess it's because of the heels all the girls were wearing. It's difficult being tall sometimes 'cause it's hard to find a partner taller than you.
Then on with the entourage. My partner was Nilleth. I got very nervous while walking so unknowingly, I walked faster than usual. I'm sorry Nilleth. I know it was hard for you. While walking, I heard Janelle's voice calling me. So I laughed (nervously) while walking.
The program was boring but it was less boring than what I was expecting. The meal was good. Especially the dessert. It was unexpectedly delicious. I had trauma while eating at Don Henrico's. Their tiramisu was not to my liking so I thought that all tiramisu desserts taste like that. Good thing they weren't!
Then the giving of awards! Two people from my section got awards. Shane as the star of the night and Eudes as prom prince. Congratulations to both of you! The prom prince and princess and king and queen started the first dance. Then the others followed.
Let the party begin! The DJ played party songs and love songs alternately on the dance floor. I don't know why but I can't remember who my first dance was. Hmmm.. I think it was Raymart. So I started the conversation so as not to make the moment awkward. We talked about Sam all throughout. It was a very long dance. Hahaha! My classmates told us that we look good with each other. Hmm. What's up with that? Hahaha. The other boys were just exchanging partners with each other. Mark was fun to dance with. He made me twirl THREE TIMES. Not your usual side- step partner huh. Hahaha. The best part for a single female, interested in friends only is the party songs. I had gone wild on the dance floor! My heels were a hindrance so I took them off.
I got so hyped! I dance until morning! It was actually bitin but it was really really fun...

Aaaahhhh... The smell of freedom rushing through the air.. Hmmm... How lovely! Errr..
Actually, I feel kinda bored. Got nothing to do in our house. It's sorta disappointing.
I'm always doing the same things. Waking up at 12, wasting half of the day sleeping. Lying on my bed half asleep. Spending half an 1 hour in the bathroom 'coz I'm too lazy to bathe properly. Spending the rest of the day in front of the PC, typing or reading Mangas- comic-like Japanese books. Eating, every now and then. I can't count how many times I eat everyday. Then, I spend the evening watching tv (and eating) . I sleep when I feel like sleeping, but I try to sleep as early as I could (12 midnight).
*Sigh.. If only someone (I mean you) will invite me to make gala... And make libre of me. HAHA
;)

Card Giving
Today's our card giving. So yeah... I'm really worried about my grade in advanced algebra. We entered the room. There's no one there except our adviser, M. Dee and us. It gives me a scary feeling. It's like I'm going to be judged to death. Hahaha. Exaggerated. I received my card and yeah, my grade in AA is really low. But what's lower is my grade in Filipino. Yeah. I really don't like Filipino. My teachers so deep with her Tagalog words that I can't reach it anymore. I'm just happy I didn't have any grade lower than 90.
My mom asked our adviser, Sir Vitug, how I'm doing in school. Of course, my teacher answered with the word "Makulit" and Ms. Dee agreed. I was like " Yeah, that's true. Hahaha". So the remarks ended there. I also found out that I'm the top 8. So I'm happy. Good thing I made it.
I'll end it here. My sister's going nuts because she already wants to use the pc.

'Twas extremely fun! And exhausting too. hahaha. We went to Rizal. We entered a cave. I can't remember its name but it's a famous spot for shootings. Actually, a shooting was going on when we went there. They're shooting for one scene from the GMA series, Darna, starring Marian Rivera. I saw her talking to someone while we're passing by. She's really white. But, I'm not really a fan of GMA shows because I'm a kapamilya. So yeah. I just took a quick glimpse and then passed by her.
The cave is really dark so I'm frightened because I'm scared of the dark. Good thing I have my friends with me. It's really exciting when you get inside. But it's really slippery so we had a hard time. I don't know why but every time we have our field trip, it's raining. So yeah.. our feet we're soaked in water. It's not really that high. But there's one point in the cave where the water's high. Of course I didn't know that, so when i stepped on it, my feet sank and and the water entered my shoes. My white socks and shoes turned into brown. It feels really gross but there's nothing I can do. There's no other way but to go sink our feet in the ice cold water.
The internal of the cave was really amazing. It's totally breath taking but parts of the cave was already vandalized by people. The cave was long so when we got outside we really felt tired. We didn't recognize our shoes after going into the cave. I really want to go change to my slippers but we're not allowed because we're still going to trek. So yeah, we went for a long and tiring trek. Many of my classmates slipped. Good thing I didn't. I guess I have a good balance. hahaha. After the long walk, we finally reached the falls. I'm surprised when I saw our bus on the other side. It's like, "What the heck! You guys made us trek when we could have just returned to the bus". But it's good. I enjoyed it anyway.
Before we went for a swim, we ate lunch first. At last! I'm really hungry 'coz I haven't eaten breakfast. I finished quickly because I really want to go for a swim already. We were the first class to finish eating. What can I say, we're really in the mood for a dip. The water is really cold! But it's fine because we can take it. We went near the falling water. It's really cool. It's like the water is massaging my shoulders and back. We played in the water. I played some pranks with my classmates and in return, they splashed water on my face. Hahaha.
The hardest part of all is the changing part. It's really difficult to change clothes when you're all squeezed in in the bus. It took us about half an hour to go change and clean up.
We went to a camp after. They showed us a demonstration of how they go into a battle. I got really shocked when they fired their guns. I wasn't prepared for it! Well, it's good for the heart! Hahaha. They also showed us some techniques we can use for survival when we get stranded with nothing with us. They let us taste the rice they cooked in a bamboo shoot. It tastes like rice cake. It's good. Then we played at the obstacle course. Some just joined so that they can go see Kuya Nico, the cutest soldier there. Hahaha. So I dirtied myself again. The obstacle course was really tiring but it's fun. I like the part where we cross the lagoon by using rope the best. I think I developed some muscles! hahaha! The soldiers were really nice. I guess they're not really that bad.
So.. all in all, it's so much fun!! It's my best fieldtrip to date! It's adventurous and very exciting! I love it!
WOW. I think this is my longest blog ever. I guess I really enjoyed the trip! Now, I have to prepare for the card giving tomorrow.

RECAP
I haven't updated my blog for quite some time now.. Well, many things happened. Let's do some recap.
uno................
3 weeks w/o classes
I know! We're so lucky right?! Well it's going to be over soon so I'm trying to enjoy every minute of it. Yes, yes, yes... The cold floor where I lie down every time I get tired. The strong wind outside our room that brushes my messy hair whenever we go out. Our dirty room that looks like it was hit by a tornado. Our happy times playing "Ten Twenty", "Chinese garter", "Ice, ice water", or cards. And oh those unforgettable memories we had while playing "Ten Twenty" with, yes of course, Mark. Yes, that was truly worth remembering.

Haute Couture
I don't know if I spelled it right.
Well... This was really time consuming. I wasted my precious time of playing for dress making. Yes, I'm very lazy. Well, It wasn't that bad. We actually enjoyed doing it. It was hard at first because we kept on changing our design. But we got the hang of it and so our work went on smoothly. Our work actually came out good. I'm proud of it!

Yey! We're going to have our fieldtrip tomorrow! I'm already getting excited! Oh men! I haven't fixed my things yet! Men, i'm lazy.

Core Value Presentation
So yeah. We're done with our presentation. It's really full of flaws. I know that. 'Coz we've only practiced completely for I think 2 days? It's really hard. We know that it was really a messy performance. But hey, we did our best. I really got pissed off when I heard a bad comment about our performance. C'mon! I doubt that you can do it. You're so boastful. I think 90% percent of the population in school hates you! Why not try doing it and see for yourself!( I'm actually referring to one person) You're so plastic. Urrrghhh... Hate those kinds..
Sana mabasa mo at sana matamaan ka.
