When our favorite television show goes to a break, most of us search for another interesting show then switch back to the show we are originally watching. But when I see these advertisements on television, my initial reaction upon understanding its surface message is to analyze what is within. Yeah I know, it’s the geeky me. But I love thinking, and I can’t stop it. :P
The advertisement of Taheebo Tea and Capsules featuring Charlene Gonzales is just another commercial. But her one line there really caught my attention:
Sa akin tea, sa mga daddy, capsule. (For me tea, For daddies, capsule)
It has been a while since the latest craze finally came to an end, with the bigger David pronounced as this season’s American Idol with 12 million votes ahead from Archuleta. Now everyone has his or her own blog entry about the just-out-of-the-oven news, but I would be having a different approach. If you think about it, Cook’s being ahead by 12 million votes tells us that he is no doubt THE American Idol. But for some days before the final results night, all are having this assertion that it would be hard to tell who would be the successor of Jordin Sparks. Add to the fact that Simon Cowell, during the final performance night, stabbed Cook (in his long-faced front) in favor of Archuleta. But hey, being ahead by 12 million votes speaks for itself. And why did it happen?

The Homeless Billionaire
http://blogs.wsj.com/wealth/2008/05/19/the-homeless-billionaire/
When I first met Nicolas Berggruen, I was struck by two things. First, he was a multi-billionaire I’d never heard of — the most interesting kind. Second, he didn’t own a home.
This is one of my papers in Comm2. We were asked to write a paper about our greatest belief in life. The geek me, happened to wtite a political belief while some of my blockmates wrote about love, freedom and etc.
The Philippine Political Stardom
In the Philippine Politics, turncoatism seems to be a hobby and a play-time activity of most politicians. Many political scientists agree that turncoatism is a strong blood in the veins of Philippine electoral politics. Throughout the decades, it is quite impossible that there is no shifting of parties within the national electorates and even in the localities. It seems to be natural, as one voter may say. What are the candidates’ motives for changing political parties? According to Annie Ruth C. Sabangan, Senior Reporter of The Manila Times, other than for winning the election, there appears to be none. The angelic and even heavenly peace offerings of these turncoats to someone of another political party tend to be so much amusing for the Filipino audience. The citizens may agree so because they would think it is about time to “reunite” and to “have a peaceful politics”. Their motherhood statements feigning sincerity that they switched parties for “unity” and/or to “bring back the people’s trust in government”—are the common things they do and say to cloak their particularistic motives (Sabangan).
This is our first Comm2 class activity- a debate about homosexual marriage. This paper is rushed!
Homosexual Marriage: A Position Paper
We oppose to the motion that homosexual marriages should be allowed in the Philippines. In this position paper, we will be presenting arguments that will prove that homosexual marriage in the country is both immoral and illegal. We will begin by examining the motion. In the motion, two critical group of words can be found—homosexual marriages and the country Philippines. In other words, the affirmative side wanted to install such policy in our country. What we will be doing is to associate both parts in the arguments so that it would perfectly fit what we are fighting for.
Edsa n. Where n stands for any positive integer.
The anniversary of EDSA People Power 1 was more than the celebration itself (or maybe less), the celebration (if that was) was only bunches of political-stampedes, street-dwellers and the state-of-emergency declaration. After having the nation’s hiatus during the SEA games and Pacquiao-Morales bout, we are back again to our selfish thrones. Filipinos are like that. United if we have the cause and disunite in the other hand if we want to. I will not talk about the two sides here, I’ll talk about the nation as a whole. This kind of scenery is not new, we are only continuing the wicked story that we ourselves start. Leaders of this country make their best effort and so are the citizens. But now, where are the fruits of this labor? Here.. this situation.. is the product. There is something wrong. But we don’t know it. A says it’s B. B says it’s C. C says it’s A. Who’s who? In my own humble opinion, excluding the human-factor for it, the current political system makes the connection short-circuit. I am on the side of those who want the political system be changed. For the past decades, we are walking on the same path, obviously, if we continue to this kind of path, we’ll get the same kind of everything. Maybe, our leaders could have the initiative upgrade the earth we are walking. But they are considering the other side’s business and so is the other side. Luckily, our president had the eagle’s eyes to see up-above the nature of what we are walking. Our past presidents should have seen that but many politicians are covering it. This is the time. If this is not then when?
