CHECK SIYA SAKIN

I just read this post written by my friend. Or should I say, ex-friend. KIDDING. :p The post was about Manny Villar. He's one of the many candidates who're running for the presidency this May 2010. Everyone knows him. Yes, from the ads. He has several ads on TV. Flashed on screen more than 20 times a day, I guess. Some say that why would he spend so much money on TV ads when he could just donate it to the needy instead. For this issue, I think that he needs to win the presidential race to serve the country. To be in a better position, and to have more power to help the whole nation. I won't be stating all the issue's against him here one by one. I just wanted to answer that one.

I'm an avid Villar fan. HA-HA-HA. Nonsense. I just chose him as my vote holder in May. He has my vote. Though a lot have been saying that the others are better and Villar is not a good man, I've never heard an issue that I can't answer. Yeah, I mean, the issue about the C5 construction? Nobody has proof about that. I know and believe that Villar's records are very clean; the ones who spread that issue are just in for the trouble it may cause. They just want to ruin the man's name.

I've also been noticing that people hate it when Villar mentions that he came from a poor family. Sometimes, it really is good to have a leader who really felt how hard it is to be poor in order to help the poor. A leader who understands our situation more than others. A leader who knows that after every storm, the sun will surely rise and shine again. He has experienced the down side of life and is now doing his best to share his success to the Philippines.

I know many will disagree, but let's give him a chance. Let's give the "evil liar" a chance to prove the negative stuff about him wrong.

I know we won't be swimming in garbage or celebrating Christmas in the streets when Villar wins the presidency. I know my vote'll be worth it.

MANNY VILLAR--- CHECK!!

I won't settle for a three

Last semester I was so desperate to get into the Dean's List. My goal was to get an average higher or even exactly 1.75. My grades were good but sadly, weren't enough to get me into the list. Several weeks were hell for me that semester. I had to stay in the library for group studies just to get some tips on lessons I didn't understand. I really hoped and prayed for a 1.75 but God didn't grant me my wish.
Some or even most people say that you have to fall so you could get up and succeed. Well, I guess this isn't true in my case. I lost hope after getting my 1.7619 average. It was so near yet not enough to let me achieve my goal. This semester, I expected the subjects to be extremely difficult compared to the past semester. I lost my chance, my only chance, to reach my dream of being a Dean's Lister. The subjects are a lot complicated now and required memorization in order to pass. Formulas, Articles, Functions, Texts and other concepts bombarded my mind. Not to mention all the stress that I feel when going home. I enumerate all that I have to do in my head and end up having a bad headache. So usually I take a nap when I get home (but that'll really get me cramming, heck!) Well, I know I let go of my DL dream but honestly, I won't settle for only a passing grade. If God doesn't want my name on that list, I can't bear to see mine on the list of those who'll take summer classes. Getting a three is like one step from a five. I really am not ready to mess up my transcript. My purpose in studying isn't for the knowledge (HAHAHA!) or the respect from others. I really just want to get high grades and get a good job. A job sufficient to supply my family with their needs and wants. I just want to give them a better lifestyle than what we have now. (Not that we're impoverish :)))))
I really am going to work hard for a 2.0 average. I won't settle for a passing grade. I won't settle for a three.
