My year ender of whatever I remembered jotting down of had an impact.
So far Left eye can still see light Right eye still holding after a year of having retinal detachment. No recurrence of Gastritis except this holiday season of eating a lot and sleeping. Now, on to the list....
LOCAL
Ondoy: Bummer. Still can't get over the water reached more than 8 feet in our apartment.
Pacquiao: congrats, and thanks for the 4 hour window of utopian shopping and street travel. One more chance if the Mayweather fight pushes through.
Maguindanao Massacre: Journalists condemn the killing of their kind, --- why so special? Condemn all killings! Ok lang ba pag regular tao ang mapapatay para may ma-isulat ang journalist? Same case on kidnappings of journalist, reklamo sila pag may nakidnap sa kanila pero pag regular na tao mukang mas gusto pa nila makabihag para may maisulat, all is fair game sa bad guys.
Mayon: 12/17/09 3:07 PM http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/as_wphilippines_volcano. The real fireworks but deadlier.
Mikee Arroyo: "Ask my lawyer" Congress is a law making body. A congressman is a law maker. Ask your lawyer?
Presidential Elections:
Nonoy - Somebody already said it...Hacienda Luisita is Noynoy's pandora's box. They may not be uber rich but certainly not financially challanged as they want to portray and what platform?
Edu for VP - pang brand recognition ni Guido, baka kasi wala may nakakailala sa kanya. Trying out the Obama factor (youth) eh?
Villar -C5 at Taga?
Gordon/Bayani - GordonProgressive thinker, di lang ma-arok ng masa looks tired, and Bayani? Lubog ang Marikina, Municipal Mayor ang nagaaprove ng construction permits and experts suggested that structures here should be at least 2 stories high. So sino ang nakaupo nung dumami ang mga tao sa Marikina? As usual nang sisi na lang ng ibang government agencies nung Ondoy.
Erap - pang-agaw lang ng boto.
Chiz-loves talking to the camera
Bro. Eddie-Thank you for relaxing your brow muscles, on your ministries and campaigns before, your brow seems to show you are heavily burdened, now I don't see as much but it's is still there.
I'm not saying none of them is worthy, but there are sides to them to be seen. It is sad that all of these personalities is again as always is using the poor on their platform. "Iangat ang nasa baba", "To help the poor" as seen on GMA 7's biyaheng 2010. With all the urong sulong, rainbow coalitions, survey based motives, new faces but same tactics. Come campaigning time, we'll see the same song and dance routine literally (that eventually ended FPJ). Magulo na sila from the start and usually magulo ang term nila.

Having the chance of often going to Irvine California, it's no surprise if this happens by what I observe.

No explanation here, we are all guilty here. Why not rename it, Clausemas, Rudolphmas, oh yeah, they did change it, to... "happy holidays"
