Hehe

No, this post isn't about the jejemon fad. It's actually my post birthday post for my most favorite dog in the world.

Meet Hehe. He just turned six last May 19. He's a mongrel dog aka 'aspin' (asong pinoy). Hehe may not be as sosyal as the other dogs, but he's definitely got a breed of his own. Often, we were asked why the name Hehe. It's actually my dad who gave it. He based it from a politician who has a weird name...Heherson. Since Heherson is a bit long for a dog's name, we decided to give him a nickname. Hence, the name Hehe.

My daily online reads wouldn't be complete without browsing through some of my favorite fashion blogs. Admittedly, I have bookmarked a lot that I am not able to read all of them. Though I am not that much type of person who lives for fashion, as a girl I love looking at someone else's style to get some tips. I also like how these bloggers actually add 'chica' to their daily wear. The perfect inspiration for days when you feel so lazy to dress up.

I just like to share with you a thought provoking article of writer Scott Berkun about the 'Cult of Busy'.

"This is the cult of busy. That simply by always seeming to have something to do, we all assume you must be important or successful.


People who are always busy are time poor. They have a time shortage. They have time debt. They are either trying to do too much, or they aren’t doing what they’re doing very well."

What keeps you awake?

Mine is being "facebook friends" with that special guy. :)

Good job!

Now that the elections are over, and the results have finally reflected the real voice of the people, I think it is only proper to commend the Filipino people for a job well done. Contrary to the naysayers, the glitches and the most dismal expectations, the country's first automated election turned out to be a success.

After months of criticisms and pessimisms thrown against the Comelec and Smartmatic, the guys have proven that they can live up to their promise to deliver a clean, honest and surprisingly quick nationwide automated poll. I believe its success restored Comelec's credibility.

Kudos also to the thousands of teachers, policemen and soldiers, and the many citizens' organizations who help made the election peaceful and orderly (on most parts of the country). They are the guardians of the electoral exercise who are surely worthy of the people's trust.

And finally, to the voting public who deserve a pat on the back. Even the scorching heat, long queues and many glitches did not deter the people from exercising their right to vote.

Even though my candidate did not win, I still want to commend Sen. Dick Gordon for authoring the nationwide poll automation. Certainly, this is the country's first step towards liberalization.

While there are still a lot of lessons to be learned, as a Filipino, I am keeping my hopes high that this will be the start of better and brighter Philippine society.
