Blog EntrySomething revolving only around ME!Sep 18, '07 11:08 AM
for everyone
Survey stolen from Phoebe Hui without permission--heh heh heh. Thank you, dearie!

PART 1: The History of Me
Were you a planned baby? Perhaps. My brother wasn't, I think. My parents must've learned by then since I'm already their third.
Were you the first? I just implied no.
Were your parents married when you were born? Already, yes.
What is your birth date? 11 May 1988. I don't hate my birthday. I don't feel like I was born too early; it is only my classmates who did not take an extra year in preparatory/elementary to have been younger. What is important is I'm still alive today.

PART 2: THE FAMILY
Parents married or divorced? Married. Woohoo!
Are you an only child? No. Would you want that?
If you have siblings are you oldest, middle, or youngest? It's termed "eldest" (har har, I am mayabang), and I am youngest.
Which parent do you get along with best? Mummy.
Do you have step-parents? Maids who had taken care of me as a youngster don't count, no? I do not.

PART 3: THE FRIENDS
Do you have more than one best friend? I don't have any best friends.
What do you like to do when you are together? Stare at each other.
Do you share the same interests? If I did have any, probably, but they shouldn't matter too much.
Which friend can you tell everything to? Har har, Lara Claveria accepts anything random!

PART 4: YOUR PERSONALITY
Do you have low self-esteem? Eh, it depends on which field.
Do you get depressed about things easily? Easily? Again, it depends on which topic and its general social relevance/severity.
Are you happy right now? Kind of. Auds-chan believes I'd make a good admin at AD'I! *hugs Auds*

PART 5: APPEARANCE
Are you comfortable with the way you look? Yes. It's not like I can see myself everywhere else I go to. If I do look messed up, then screw it!
Describe your hair: Referred to mockingly as a wig during my Elementary school years, it is a flowy helmet of royalty that (in my dreams) stuns onlookers with its commanding presence and successfully frames my face into doll-like proportions.
How do you dress? If I know/think I won't get scolded for the day, I brush up onto my elder sister's accessories to shine, be admired, look almost like a goddess (and maybe hopefully, finally, a stranger might give me flowers on Valentine's Day!). For most of the time that I regretfully do little school work, I tend to wear unnoticable shirts (eww) and the usual jeans and rubber shoes to accentuate my lowliness.
Were you a strange child? Oh my God, what do you think?

PART 6: RANDOM
Are you scared of growing up old and alone? I am, I am. I don't think about it, but billowing away to a rest house with no one to remember me is sad indeed.
What are you wearing? Right now? The same as yesterday night, booyah! Comfortable home shirt (again, ugh!) and shorts.
Own any pets? No, not at all. I feel I'd just promote any animal's misery by keeping them trapped in between the four walls of our unspeaking house without a chance to let it live for its own.
Have your license? Nah. I'll learn to drive some other time.
Ever been in trouble with the law? In school, yes. In society, not yet. What evil might I exemplify?
Ever been thrown out of a bar? Yet I have done nothing that younger people could imitate me for. (I have--irresponsibility in academics, promising things I can't do--but ssh.) First time I had gone to one, I drank myself a warm cuppa milk. Seriously, cow's milk; I didn't want to get even tipsy as I was to be fetched that night.

PART 7: THE OUTDOORS
Do you prefer indoors or outdoors? Outdoors, mostly. I had billowed my childhood away from my video game addiction and would rather not do so for the rest of my life.
Favorite season? I have only the sunny and the rainy season to choose from. I would like to experience some friendly ecologically-challenged hail.
Do you like walking in the rain? Yes. I haven't the opportunity for my maintainance of a dry image seems to weigh more. Someday, *sings* soooomeday.
Do you like thunderstorms? Yes! The high energy. They make me feel alive. I like them the most when urban blackouts strike. I enjoyed the Milenyo disaster last year, when we had to use candles for restroom moments and unheated canned food for dinner. There were no appliances to preoccupy ourselves with so we were among each other. It was nice.
Ever done anything strange outdoors? Used the disastrous Portalet. One could clearly see the floating bodily wastes underneath, intact.
Ever peed outside? As a child, yes. Perhaps in the provinces too; I can't remember.

PART 8: FOOD
Are you a vegetarian? Oh my God, yes.
Anything you absolutely could eat forever? Oh my God, spaghetti.
Favorite food? Oh my God, Italian.
What is your favorite dessert? Oh my God, nada. You know these questions stir appetizing manifestations of eatables in my brain cells. Yes, I don't have a particular craving when it comes to sweets; anything with sugar and endorphines in it is a gooda.

PART 9: RELATIONSHIPS AND LOVE
Do you believe in love at first sight? I want to, I think I have experienced so, but through splicing and dicing it, it appears I have only placed her onto an impossible ideal. I now believe in love as learned, as parents do with their children.
Do you want to get married? I fear eternal promises. There is always the live-in alternative. =D
Single or taken? Snagged. :3 Hee hee hee.
Love or Lust? Rather the love, but neither would I last without the latter.
Have you ever wanted to spend forever with someone?
Longest relationship? Two years and four months up to present.
Shortest relationship? One with someone I can't even bear to speak of. No offical break-up, but our situation wasn't official as well nor was it in any way understandable. It was gross.
Currently in love with someone? My boyfriend. OoOoOoOh. I try, try to keep my halo.

Kiddie party! Food! Balloons! Mascots to take pictures with! Pictures of me! Pictures taken by me! Except the ones where I'm with the mascots.

Every Filipino has to attend a Jollibee party at least once.

Subject: FW: What will make me leave the Philippines. .. An Open Letter to Every Filipino


Dear Fellow Filipino,

Good day to all of you! Before I begin my letter... just a disclaimer, for people who know me they know that I love the Philippines very much and I am not really one who rants and complaints to high heavens about what is happening to our country and does nothing about it, in fact, I feel that at my relatively young age of 27, I have done much service to the Philippines by setting up Pathways to Higher Education which has sent more than 500 poor but deserving students to college and AHON Foundation which has already built two public elementary school libraries that have benefitted more than 3,500 students. Yet, after seeing how events in our nation have transpired the past few weeks and talking with some friends, I feel the urge to share with you my own thoughts and feelings.

Over the weekend, we saw the completion of two major political alliances for this coming Senate Elections that has just began here in the Philippines . Now we have two political forces with familiar faces nonetheless on opposite sides of the fences. On one end, you have Tito Sotto and Tessie Aquino-Oreta who were two major stalwarts of the opposition and the FPJ Campaign in 2004 hobnobbing with the woman (Pres. GMA) whom they claimed to have cheated FPJ in the last Presidential Elections.On the other side of the fence, you see Manny Villar, the former house speaker who was actually responsible for impeaching Erap now part of the United Opposition who is led by no less than... Erap himself. Now if you don't see anything wrong with this picture then you must be one of the many Filipinos who have accepted this very sad reality that there is indeed no permanent ideals that our government leaders stand up for but rather they just go where there self-interests can best be served. It is this kind of politics why I no longer wonder why good people like Ramon Magsaysay Awardee Mayor Jesse Robredo of Naga City or outstanding Bulacan Governor Josie Dela Cruz will find it hard or worse, never be elected to national positions.

It is with these in mind that I'd like to share with you what are events this coming May elections that will make me consider leaving the Philippines :

1.) If former COMELEC Commissioner Virgilio Garcillano of Hello Garci fame wins in his bid to become Congressman of Bukidnon...seeking to replace a good man no less in incumbent Cong. Neric Acosta... We would really be the laughing stock of the whole world if we allow a man with the reputation of Garci to be one of our so called "Honorable Gentlemen".

2.) If Dancing Queen Tessie Aquino Oreta reclaims her seat at the Senate... I hope that all of us would still remember that dance that she did during the 2001 impeachment hearings after they voted to overrule the decision of then Chief Justice Davide... let us make sure that people like her never make it to the Senate again.

3.) If Richard Gomez becomes a senator... what does he know about making laws? We already have the likes of Bong Revilla and Lito Lapid in the Senate and their performance or lack of it would be reason enough not to elect another actor who has no prior experience in government to the distinguished halls of the Senate.

4.) If Gringo Honasan wins again.... have we not learned our lesson? I cannot believe that just because someone is charismatic then we will just elect him to become one of our senators despite the fact that he has time and again caused so much instability in our country... if we want a military junta similar to that of Thailand ... then lets all vote for this guy....

5.) If Manny Pacquiao becomes Congressman of General Santos City... everybody loves Manny the Boxing Champ but Manny the Lawmaker? Lets be realistic here, Manny is our Hero alright but I think it takes more than just great boxing skills and a desire to serve to be able to make appropriate laws that would help uplift the lives of the many Filipinos who live in Poverty.

6.) If Lito Lapid wins for Mayor of Makati City... I don't like Jojo Binay as well but Lito Lapid as city mayor of the country's finance and business center?!?! And do you really think he is from Makati and has good plans for the city? The Arroyos asking someone like him to run just goes to show you how much love and concern this government has for our country.

7.) If Chavit Singson becomes a Senator, Illegal Gambling = Chavit... enough said.

Now if all of these 7 things happen during this coming elections then don't be surprised if I decide to leave this country that I love dearly. Like I said during the first part of my letter, I feel that I have done much for this country but I think its time that Filipinos become more vigilant and critical in selecting our leaders for the sake of our future and the generations that will go beyond us. So I appeal to every Filipino who asks what can I actually do for my country... Choose and vote for the right people this coming elections, huwag na tayong magpaloko sa mga kandidatong maganda lang ang jingle o gwapo lang sa mga poster. Let us choose leaders who have a good track record for service and who are genuinely committed towards serving our country.

Manindigan naman tayong lahat para sa ating Kinabukasan at para sa Kapakanan ng ating Bayan!

Thank you very much for your time in reading this letter.

Sincerely,

Harvey S. Keh
