I hate our President for being so lazy she loves making changes with holidays. She takes these opportunities to make a good excuse for being a procrastinator, and therefore granting her only 4 days of work for the week. Does she not care that there are millions of excited students who are itching on their computer seats for the school year to commence so they can also start jotting down or doodling on their brand-new notebooks using their expensive Staedtler pencils and G-Tech pens? Does she not care about the more enthusiastic pupils who have studied in advance the whole summer just to be ready to show the classmates who's who in which subject? And about those who are feeling ecstatic they are going to see their crushes back again or be with their boyfriends because they happen to study in the same school? Or about those who are just simply feeling anxious about how the academic year might be, and for them the first day of school tells whether it's what they expect it to be, or something better or worse? And those who want to meet new people, exchange smiles and glances, and wear the new clothes, flash to the public's eye the new bags and flaunt the new shoes, which when they shopped for these they had to endure the brutal amount of people pushing them from all directions during the end-of-summer/back-to-school sale? The answer is no, she really doesn't. She only cares about her egoistic self and of course, about the amount of dilly-dallying she can do for the week.

Well, yeah, ok, some of those I listed above may sound really familiar (no, I don't have these staedtler pencils and G-Tech pens, I prefer the cheaper ones..but I did go to that sale) ... But don't mind those. Let's talk about other depressing matters.

I don't have any load anymore, because I spent it on sending text messages to Serene, Renee, and my uncle, Rene. I tried to send a picture (of myself, of course!) to my phone as well, but then I have to connect it to the internet. And I failed to do so--reason? I failed to know, too. While I was online, I entertained myself with reading interesting posts in a blog (www.enchantedquill.blogspot.com) and chatted with the author--and when we were at the peak of our DiabloII-LOD conversation I got disconnected. Of course, there was only around 3 hours left on my internet account, and time passes quickly while one is enjoying. I stole some internet from my brother's account (which is what I am also doing right now... it's ok, he deleted my folder and that's a thousand times more painful!) and went back to chatting but sadly everyone went away.

Very early this morning I went online to check the news regarding the no-class-Monday. I found out that in the month of May the palace declared June 13 to be a regular working day. Since the President is the commander, her word is to be followed making our first-day-of-classes to be our first-day-of-no-classes for this school year.

Or maybe this is a wrong speculation after all, that Glo is lazy. I am thinking that maybe on those days that she had declared to be a holiday-extension, she was probably working on something..... else! Not her normal Presidential work load, but her favorite extra-curricular activity--being the national Jueteng lord. Now on Monday might be her secret meeting and general rehearsal with her political supporters. Of course, they have to make stories up and practice their alibi to cover up the worst ever blunder in her career. They have to make sure their details aren't too blurry or too elaborated to be a lie. So now, now, she's not a procrastinator after all. She's working really hard. I don't want her to abdicate her throne because next in line is Noli de Castro--I'd rather have Erap back. Enough about politics...

I wonder now why it's BA Political science... Politics was never a science and never will be. It's a dirty art.
