As she finished her term as a president, she ran as a congresswoman of Pampanga and got the spot. President Benigno "Noynoy" Aquino III took her place. Now, she was being sued by the current administration about the anomalies she had which are always blocked during her term. Now, the country filed many cases against her which is related to corruption. Some may think that PNOY has something to do personally against CGMA. The president recounted that he was just doing his job as a president and worked what he had promise to the people during election as it is in his platform: Kung Walang Corrupt, Walang Mahirap.
Currently, CGMA is suffering from an illness due to hypoparathyroid and bone diseases. Due to this condition, they planned to go abroad for some medical treatment. They demanded it for them to be given a permission to leave the country. At first, she was under hospital arrest while waiting trial for electoral sabotage. A Pasay Regional Trial Court judge issued an arrest warrant against
Arroyo after she was charged with electoral sabotage by the Commission
on Elections on Nov. 25 of this year. This means that she was not permitted to seek medical treatment abroad. She was being diagnosed with Cervical Spondylosis. Her hospital arrest continued. From St. Luke's Medical Center, she was transfered to Veterans Memorial Medical Center in Quezon City.
As I've seen CGMA on t.v, I got pity on her since she is suffering from a disease. But, when my teacher said, even if Gloria is in that condition, he never get pity on her since she is corrupt. She deserves things that have happened to her. (SIGH). Let's just pray and hope that justice will prevail. God Bless!!!

Congressman Gloria Macapagal Arroyo (Part 1)
Few months or weeks, it's been a menu of the conversation of all Filipinos even in other country, maybe, about what Congressman Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo is facing today. She was the 14th president of the Republic of the Philippines and been the 2nd female president after late former President Corazon Cojuangco-Aquino. There were many cases which is filed against her related to corruption. This corruption issues was during her time as a president of our country.
As I remembered, as she was still the president, there were many issues against her. There were many anomalies when she in her sit as a president. These include the million dinner. Me, myself, upon hearing this news, I was really mad at her. How could she ate that expensive food when her people was suffering from poverty. That happened abroad. Another case is the ZTE where there pictures have been taken that could support that the issue is true. Also, I remember the Hello Garci issue which is related to the 2004 election as she won as the president against late Fernando Poe. This issue arised when a recording of a phone call conversation of CGMA and former Election Comissioner Virgilio Garcillano, talking about the rigging of 2004 election, came out to the public on June 2005. There were many attempts of impeachment against her but it didn't happen since her administration is dominated by her allies. It was blocked by them.
With these issues I have mentioned above, I'm so disappointed with her. My appreciation for her as a president of the country turned into disappointments and anger. If it is true, how could she do that.
I have many things to say about the issue. And, this will be on my next entry...

Pacquiao Defeated Marquez for the Third Time!
One event of this year is Manny Pacquiao's fight against Juan Manuel Marquez. Before this day came, the whole I think watched or updated themselves about the trainings that the two fighters did as a preparation for their fight which was held on Nov. 12, 2011 at MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas Nevada. Every moves of them was one of the headlines of the news on how was their preparation for the fight or if they have techniques to win the fight.
Before this day came, boxing experts were interviewed about who did they think would win the fight and majority of them recounted that it would still be Pacquiao who would win. But, this is not the basis since we didn't know what would happen. When the day came, I must say, the whole world stopped turning during their fight. Everybody I think watched the very much awaited boxing fight of the year. Famous celebrities and even politicians never lose the chance to watched it live or just in television. In Philippines, City Gym or covered courts were filled with people where a big screen was placed to watched every fight of Pacquiao. Some took this opportunity to earn money. They people see the fight in their house for a cost but some didn't mind the amount as long as they would witness the fight. I would say that everybody sats in front of their television. What they did sowed that they supported Pacquiao. And, I am included in those people. Me, I watched the fight myself together with my parents and sister.
And, as I've watched the fight, I would say that the two were a great boxers. I must admit that Pacquiao found difficulties to defeat Marquez but still he won through a majority decisions. Yahoooooooooooo!!! After the fight, there were many issues about Pacquiao's winning. I didn't care about the issues since we all know that Pacquiao did the fight fairly and he deserved to be won. Thank you PACMAN for bringing pride again in to our country. God Bless!!!

Nov. 1 and 2 (All Saints and All Souls Day)
All Saints Day and All Souls; as you look on the calendar, these days are considered holidays or either of them would be holiday depending on the government on which day will be consider as holidays. As what we've known, halloween is celebrated during these days or before these days wherein people or youths wearing horror costumes. Wew. Also, during this days, relatives and families are reunited at the tombs of their loved ones. They pray their and have chat about the happenings of their lives while they were away from each other. I have noticed that during these days, policemen roamed around cemeteries and inspect every persons before they let people enter the area. They implement that people are not allowed to bring glass bottle, sharp objects and etc. that could be used in any bad purposes since during this time, snatchers or what we call bad-minded people grab this opportunity to victimize people like stealing things that could be sold for them to gain money or any bad intentions which is obviously could harm humans. I would say that policemen did a good step to prevent crimes during that day and let people feel that they were safe as they visit their late loved ones. As I've watch the news, I can see crowds. I can see thousands or millions of people visit in a cemetery. That's why, some just went there before the day came or right after that day just to avoid crowds.
Me, you may not believe me but it's true. I went to cemetery last Nov.1 after 8 years. Yeah, it's true. Whenever these day comes, our mother don't let us go to the cemetery since as what I have said, it's crowd there. My last visit there was when we bury my late uncle and after that, I never got the chance to come back for my parents forbidded me and my sister. What I did when these days came, I just prayed at home for the saints and for the souls. Now, that I think I'm old enough to handle myself in a crowd, I had decided to go there together with my sister and visit my late uncle and grandparents on my mother side. As I was in front of my uncles tomb, I felt like crying because for me, it's hard to accept even if 8 years had already passed. The pain is still here. For my grandparents, I didn't got to see them when they were still alive since they died when I wasn't in this world. It was my uncle whom I bonded.
For the souls in purgatory, may they REST IN PEACE!!!
God bless everyone!

Holy Rosary Month
Catholic Church dedicated each month of the year for a certain devotion. And month of October will be for Holy Rosary. It is one of the best known Catholic devotions. Best practice for this month is to pray for the Holy Rosary but, of course, it doesn't mean that we will pray the Holy Rosary for this month. It should be everyday. As I have noticed, during this month, there were processions happen during 6pm of the day.
Traditionally, the rosary is divided into three sets of mysteries: Joyful (recited on Monday and Thursday, and Sunday from Advent until Lent); Sorrowful (Tuesday and Friday, and Sunday during Lent); and Glorious (Wednesday and Saturday, and Sunday from Easter until Advent).[1] Childrens, mothers, fathers, olds and youngs gathered at the church for the procession. As the procession pass by the house, we can say lighted candles outside or at the windows of the house. It shows respect for the Blessed Virgin Mary.
I talked about this Holy Rosary because some forgot about it. Oooooh I think most. hmmmp. It is important for us to pray everyday since this is what we need for us to be more closer to our Almighty. As I have observed our world today through news, people were suffering from calamities, wars and poverty. People today are so cruel. They only mind material things they have. They forgot God. God is only our hope to save us from hell. God Bless!

SEMBREAK
SEMESTRAL break usually starts last week of October. It takes 2-3 weeks of vacation including the holiday in Nov. which is the All Saints Day and All Souls Day. For public schools, they only have two weeks vacation, from Oct. 26-Nov. 2. Classes resumed on Nov. 3. It is compulsory for them to follow the order of the DepEd as it is stated in the official calendar of school activities in school year 2011-2012. Private may opt to follow or change the the date as long as they will comply the 180 school days for the second semester.
Semestral break is what most of the pupils and students awaited. Before it came, they already have plans or list on what to do during this time. During this vacation, family reunions happen because November 1st Holiday. Some students stay at their ancestor's house. Some will take a vacation on the other town or countries with their families. Some just stays at their houses helping their parents doing the chores or the business they had. Also, it's not only time for family reunions but also, classmates' reunion or berk's reunion.
During the vacation, I was just at our house doing this I usually do everyday except for going to school. Also, because of this vacation, I was able to spend more time with my parents and cousins which I dearly love to do. To be with them always is what makes me happy. I don't think of having vacation to different towns or countries. First of all, I can't afford. Hahahahaha. As long as I'm with my loved ones, I'm contented.
Vaacation is what most students loved. Hehehe. I'm just being honest base on what I have observed. But then, still, we love to go to school. It's just that we want to be relaxed sometime. Some enjoyed their vacation while some were not. Whatever it is, it's already over. It's already start of the class. And I must say, WELCOME TO SCHOOL. GBU.
