State of the Nation Address (SONA) again! Once more, GMA will be heard for her lies and contemptible promises…
The typhoon didn’t stop us. Despite the rain and strong winds, we still marched from UP to an area near Sandigan Bayan yesterday, to express our sentiments to the puppet and fascist president. Aside from the umbrella I was using, I also wore a jacket to protect me from the rain. But the environment was so harsh then. Perhaps it also wanted to express its aggravations with us. Hahaha! So no matter how we shielded ourselves from being wet, nature found its ways to make us look burdened.
When the mob stopped from progressing, we settled and rested for some time. This gave us time to eat our lunch (yes! we ate our lunch on the street! it was fun!). After a while, the program already began. We chanted several times to condemn GMA. It really relieves me to express the abhorrence I feel towards a person. At about 4pm, I and some of my companions decided to go home for we still have a number of things to do.
It was past 5pm when I got to the apartment. I relaxed for a short while and took a bath after. While drying my hair, I was still able to catch up with some of the parts of GMA’s speech. I must admit, her speech was well-constructed. I wonder…how many refurbishments it went through? How many writers passed it on? An ordinary citizen wouldn’t know. With regards to the contents, I can say that GMA is so ambitious. Well, let’s just see…
After listening to GMA’s SONA, I immediately fixed my things to get ready for an overnight brainstorming activity for the debate. I and the other members of SPECA debate team agreed to meet at Vinzons Hall by 8pm. It was just 7pm so I was still calm. When I lay on my bed to lighten up my mood, I wasn’t able to stop myself from sleeping. I was really exhausted. When I woke up, it was already 7:52. I stood up instantly and prepared to leave. Without more ado, I left the apartment and went to Vinzons Hall. To cut the story short, the team was completed by 10pm in Mini-Stop Katipunan. Marge fetched us and brought us to their house. We worked on the Philippine Mining Act that night. We tried to scrutinize the law and build the arguments on both sides. The process was even more complicated than what I was expecting. It was so hard!!! While burning our eyebrows, people were texting us that there would be no classes today, so we felt a little comforted. At least, we can still have time to have a good sleep even though our work objectives were not met.
