kaliluha'y siyang naghahari

That moro-moro which was the Senate hearing with Janet Napoles on it only became interesting when it was Sen. Miriam Santiago's turn to ask the questions. That lady never ceases to amaze me with her wit, humor and of course wisdom of the law. At one point I actually thought she have broken Napoles successfully and would draw confessions out of her. Janet's conviction and resilience to keep mum won though. On the other hand there still that glimmer of hope that perhaps she would find the senator's argument reasonable and would come out clean someday soon. Wishful thinking I know.

Ang atensyon ng media ay nakapokus sa kanya pero alam din ng karamihan na ang kinasasangkutan niyang eskandalo ay maliit na parte lamang ng talamak na korupsyon sa gobyerno. Mula sa pinakamataas na opisyal hanggang sa baranggay lebel ay nakakapanindig kalamnan ang pagnanakaw na ginagawa sa kaban ng bayan. Nakakalungkot dahil hindi maitatanggi na bahagi na ito ng kasalukuyang kultura ng bansa na para bang lahat ng mamamayan ay tanggap na ang katotohanan na lahat ng nasa pwesto ay mandarambong.

Paano tayo makakalaya sa ganitong pag-iisip? Tumanda na ako lahat-lahat ay ganito pa din ang sistema. Nakakasawa. Simula nang ako'y magtrabaho mahigit isang dekada na ang nakakaraan ay walang puknat ang pagkaltas ng witholding tax kada sweldo idagdag pa ang VAT sa lahat ng mga serbisyo at produktong binibili. Para ano, para nakawin lang ng iilan?

Ang sentimyento ko ay hinaing din ng karamihan. Ayoko ko na sana isulat ito pero nakakarindi na.

the craigslist

I had never utilized it. Yet from time to time I visit it to see how people market themselves to others be it for love, casual sex or money. I find it fascinating.

I know there are other sites similar to this but I didn't venture to google another one. Whenever I am at that site in incognito mode that means I am bored to death already and I just want to find some thing interesting.

Of course there are real people in there who in the moment of desperation just took the plunge-that chance that somehow they would managed to find the right one. The sad thing is I am seeing the same set of pics and ads every so often. Are they that unlucky? I suppose finding the right person is really that hard. I was on that situation. I was twenty-seven before making an actual commitment. It was on this defunct gay community site that he found out about me. Prior to his first message, I already hooked up with a couple of gay guys that up until this day I regret having sex with.

I am not discounting the fact that perhaps someday I would be one of those people who would post yet another ad about themselves. The world is getting smaller with the technology we have but it can still be a damn lonely place.

run run run

Hanep no. In fairness uso pa din ang mga fun run ngayon. Akala ko ay pang-isang taon lang ang fad na ito at lilipas din. Pero it is here to stay for good.

Which is not bad at all. Actually gusto ko nga sumali sa mga ganyan kahit one time lang. Ang kaso umiiral na naman ang katamaran ko. Isasangkalan ko na naman ang pagiging call center agent ko. 

Pero meron akong mga ka-opisina na career mode sa mga ganito kaya. Hindi ko nga alam kung paano nila ito ginagawa. Mukha naman tumatakbo naman sila for real at hindi sumasali lang para sa photo op for instagram or facebook. I don't know how they do it. Time management maybe?

One of these days I swear I would join those peeps. I don't do exercise na nga so siguro to join those kinds of event twice a year would be enough. Oh di ba bonggang papawis ever pagnagkataon.

Pero siguro bili muna ko ng maganda shu-es pangtakbo.
