Province or City

If I have to choose where I will live and the choice is between province and Manila, I would choose province. Here are the facts why it is better to live in the province:

First, the food is always fresh. You can eat fresh seafoods, and fresh vegetables. Second, I want to be close to my family wherever I am living in the province, so that I can just go home easily to be with them. The things that's good in Manila is that you can just go to the malls whenever you want as long as you have money. You can as well party at many places if you love to party. There are lots of interesting places in Manila and lots of things to do in Manila. You will never be bored if you live there. But I was born a province girl so I will always choose province over any city.

Duterte

His Excellency, President Rodrigo Roa Duterte, the 16th President of the Republic of the Philippines. Now that he is the newest president of the year I assume that he will do what's right for the country and to his people. I am one of those who voted for him because I believe in him and in his advocacy to make the country even better. Let's see what he got! Let's see if he is really different than the rest of the politicians, Davao, once the "murder capital of the Philippines, is nowadays one the of the best and safest cities of the Philippines and as a major there, it was under Rodrigo Roa Duterte's leadership. He ruled in the city for more than two decades, and now it's time for him to bring that to the whole country. Good Luck to the 16th president!

Captain America Civil War

The latest movie that I have watched was Captain America Civil War. This movie was fine and worth to be seen. But I have some critics: I did not like how they'd become enimies at the middle of the movie and back all together as friends at the end. I hated the scene when everyone fights with each other when they were supposed to be one. I'd say the idea of the movie wasn't really that good. The director could have thought of better ideas when they were filming the movie, or could have created another enemies. It could be better than to make all the Marvel heroes fight with each other.

Don't get me wrong! Since I watched the first Marvel movie, I became a fan of Marvel movies. I love Marvel movies so much but I have to disagree to the storyline of this movie.

Not a loner

I am not a loner, but sometimes there is that day when I want to be alone and don't want to be distracted or bothered by someone. Sometimes I go to a place where no one is around. I often do that when I feel irretated or something. Just like when I've been in a not so good conversation with my family. To stop myself from being mad, I simply go to the seasides and sit there and look around and think, and sometimes after I calmed down I smile, thinking that things will be ok. Then I feel relieved.

Some days I am in a bad mood and do not want to be around with anyone. The simplest thing to do when you're in that mood is to be alone to avoid a fight with somebody because when are in a bad mood we sometimes say inappropriate words that we later regret.

3 years after typhoon Haiyan

Three years ago, typhoon Haiyan hit the Philippines, taking away thousands of lives from their family. There were those injured people crying because of pain, agony and their loss. Afterwards, some had died because of hunger. Thousands had lost their homes. People were desperate 3 years ago. It was the disaster that we will never forget. That was then.

I am now in Tacloban again: Now seems everything is back to what it was before the typhoon. Building has been renovated and so are the school buildings. The loss of lifes has been somewhat relieved by newborn children born after the typhoon. Things can be gone and can be replaced by new ones. Life continues even after big disasters, and this is good. It gives hope!

Presidential election

May 9th: No no no, it is no fun at all, this election! I am waiting in line, being roasted under the sun. Waiting already since hours. I can feel the heat on my skin. I am hearing people gossiping arount. I even smell strange people odor. Is that myself who is smelling? Oh well, I did shower before I came here.

Lots of people are here, waiting waiting waiting. You have to wait until it is your turn. I am still eager to vote, but all this waiting in the heat is no fun. I hope it is my turn soon. My dad can't write or read so I did help him to vote. I did the shading and signing for him.

Before election

May 5th: I can't wait for the election day to come! The election here in the province is kind of exciting. You wonder why? The election day is on April 9th: that's the day where you can choose who to vote for president, vice president, governor, vice governor, mayor, vice mayor and a lot more. Why is it fun to vote here in province? Because of the corruption! No joke, it is because most of these candidates give away money in every election. Isn't that fun? At least you have a reason to stay in the heat while voting. That's how it is here in the province: in order to win you'll need to give away money to a huge amount of people. This increases your chance that you get elected, because most people are poor and vote for whoever gives money to them. If the majority likes you and your services, then giving away money is just a bonus. But if you are just a nice and competent candidate without money, then you're still far from being elected. That's the fun of the election! ;-)
