CAN'T EXPLAIN MY HAPPINESS

I woke up today with a smile not so typical. I don't know why, but my heart and mind speak that I must be happy this day.

Why can't the world be perfect. Why can't people just experience happiness at all time, just like the happiness I do experience right now.

Well that is one fact of life, you can't never make things all fall into perfection. Yes, it would be a better world if everything is in the happy mood. But again, reality bites, life is never perfect.

With this, I envy those little children who seem not to experience any problem. When you see them, they are always happy, feeling well and only waiting for their mothers to call them and eat their meals.

How I wish I were a child right now, but time speaks, I am not a child anymore.

But thanks anyway because at least even for this day I could firmly say that I am happy.

How I wish this happiness will continue for the entire day, tomorrow and even for the coming more days.

To all my friends, my family, everybody who have shared moments with me, thank you very much. You guys are all the very reason why I am very happy this time.

Love you all guys.

ONLINE WRITING versus NEWSPAPER JOURNALISM

There are some differences when we talk about online writing and newspaper writing.

First, articles online are shorter as compared to the articles in the newspapers. Take for example, the articles in newspapers, you will be reading them for a time, but for online news articles, it would be faster for you to be reading them, since they are written, shortly.

Second, in newspapers, there are many advertisements that you can see all around in one page, but in the online newspapers, you will not see more, because they are grouped into boarders. What I mean is that there is a separation between news pages and advertisement spaces.

Third, it is obvious that reading an online article is more pleasing to the eyes rather than reading a newspaper which will surely make you feel uneasy because of the ink that scatters to the papers and the ink that spills to your fingers.

Finally, I would say that it is really nicer to read an online text rather than a paper text because if you somehow do not understand some part of the article, you could simply type into the search engine and find its meaning, which is a hassle task if you’re in a newspaper scenario.

I hope it will not sound that I am an online newspaper addict.

THE CURSE OF BEING THE PRESIDENT’S HUSBAND

In different press releases, newspapers, radio and television announcements, the name of the First gentleman Mike Arroyo is never being detached. He would even be a possible candidate for the Newsmakers of the Year. But, shall the Filipino people believe on every issue that is being hit and strike against him? Is there truth behind all these accusations against him? Or, is this a mere conspiracy?

During his privilege speech in the Senate, Opposition Senator Panfilo Lacson linked First gentleman Mike Arroyo to many untold stories of corruption in the government wherein proceeds of anomalous contracts and projects are allegedly personally delivered on him. Another thing is the controversy of his name being linked to Victoria Toh, of which was denied by the both parties.

But the question still remains, is there truth against these accusations.

Is it not possible that there are a lot of people who would like to destroy him and using this way, they think would be a very good instrument.

It is very unfair to become the husband or wife, whatsoever of whoever is the President of this country. With all your moves, there would be an equivalent interplay, be it positive, more so, a negative one.

Is this the curse of being the husband of the President of the Philippines? If this is so, how unfair it would be to him.

But still, to be very sympathetic to Mike Arroyo is an unfair task also. But as we move on, as days pass by, let us just see if these accusations would be verified as to their truth and falsity.

With all these things, I rest my case.
