I'm Waiting for the President

Governor Generoso Bridge 1 was broken (I don't know the right term) last year. The bridge is the gateway for trade and commerce in Davao City. They destroyed the whole bridge and promised to replace it in just 3 months.

Well the city is still waiting for the promised bridge. Our city mayor said he can provide us with a new bridge because the city has money. House Speaker Nograles came into the scene and said he should be the one to initiate because it's part of his district. Then suddenly local government units said that the right office to construct the bridge is the DPWH (Department of Public Works and Highways) or as radio commentators would say (Daghan Project Way Human-human).

The city suffered for a year with a heavy traffic and delayed commerce. They started to construct the bridge last April and promised to have it all set by August.

Fortunately.

The bridge is ready for use today. Everything is set for the use of the bridge to avoid the heavy traffic it would give for the opening of classes tomorrow. We can't use the bridge, however, because WE ARE WAITING FOR THE PRESIDENT to inaugurate the opening.

STUPID!!!!!!!!!

June 12 or 9?

As a child I always look forward for the holidays... because that simply means no class! That was the meaning of holiday for me... Until now I still have that mentality of looking forward for the holiday and all the "days" in the calendar...

i.e. bonifacio day, Araw (day) ng kagitingan, Valentine's day (of which we don't hold classes in our high school for the reason we all don't know), and many other days... including Independence day, which I love so much because imagine, the classes had just started and we have a day with no class because of the independence day...

Anyway, with all those days, no work and no classes were ordered by the president. Mainly the reason is for us to spend time to honor and simply to recall the momentous, heroic and meaningful event that happened in our history.

So is it rightful to change the Independence day (which historically and meaningfully fall every 12th of June) into June 9. Just because the 9th is placed on a monday and for us to have a long weekend. As a laborer I love it but as a Filipino, I hate it.

June 12 is the birthday of our Nation. The fulfillment of our long cry for democracy and freedom. To change that day simply means taking the essence of our Filipino-ness.

Yearning of the Child In Me

Ever since I always dream of having a Game Boy. As a child I dreamed of Game Boy (B/W model), I entered high school I dreamed of Game boy Color, in college Game Boy Advance... and finally Game Boy Micro.

Now that I am working and have the money... i will buy that thing. Not because I need it but just to satisfy the inner child in me... yearning to have that Micro.

How I wish I can have that sleek little gadget...

Sadly it costs P3,700.00. Where the hell would I get that amount? Three months ago I bought a brand new cellphone worth P15,000. I could have bought the P4,000 for a Micro and bought a cheaper P11,000 phone.. huhu.

Anyway, my desire is burning so much!!!!!!!!!

Arrrrrggggggggggghhhhhh. I still can't have that Game Boy.

Inner child behave. You wait for the right time to have that Game Boy.

Maybe a week or two, or maybe next month would do...

It's Raining Cats and Dogs

Now we're paying the price! Global warming is killing us.

Pagkagrabeh sa traffic sa lungsod ng Dabaw! Because the streets are flooded by water.
