2 more days and 2nd semester starts, yeah, we're starting on the 3rd of November which also means early school year end for us... today is the last day for the 2010 election registration all over the country, COMELEC is open until 12am tonight to accommodate those last day registrants... over the news some people are losing their cool with the ongoing registration due to the long lines and maybe with the not so organized flow of the registration... since December last year there are already around 3 million new voters who registered, errr.. wait... did i say December? yes i did, and only if these people tried to register earlier they will not face this kind of problems anymore, long lines, shortage of registration forms and waiting as early as 6am and finally registering 12 hours later... this attitude of "mamaya na [later]" is bringing us to no where, we always talk about change in society but we need to understand that to attain change it should start from within us, not from the person in power or the leader that enjoys the privileges of being one... happy halloween everyone!.. peace!...
After a much heated campaigns the election fever are almost finally over. Pending the final canvassing of votes by the congress the people have chosen a new leader to rule the country for the next 6 years. The presumptive president is a mayor from a city down south of the Philippines known for his iron fisted style of government. What makes this election interesting is the process on how people now choose their leaders. Traditionally, we oath to go for people with great experience, plans, smart and proper character and attitude someone we normally call 'honorable'. This election changed that idea, people now go for leaders with real simple plans to solve recurring problems in the society, strong work portfolio to showcase their capability to govern and implement real solutions. Good luck to the newly elected president, I wish you well in your quest to change this country into something everyone wish it should be. Peace!
