Pre-Election Rants

eto ha. people shouldn't be meddling with other peoples' businesses because we have our own affairs to attend to. this election thing, it's really getting into my nerves because suddenly, the environment is cranky, and you are not sure if the person sitting next to you, talking to you, actually hates you because you are rooting for some other candidate.. how sucky could that be? being surrounded by HYPOCRITES.

thing is wala ka naman ginawang masama, you are just a voter who chose who to vote and nothing else. i noticed that when i told somebody that im actually rooting for a less visible candidate, they'll suddenly avert their faces, and the next time we see each other, the usual "o hi kumusta" will just be "oh..." with slanted eyes and a demeanor that tells me "i dont wanna be with you..."

how melodramatic.

eto pa. this morning, a friend approached me and asked me who i want to vote.. i told her im voting for the less popular candidate, but i didnt tell her all the reasons why im voting him. sinabi ko lang na im voting him kasi gusto ko ung mukha talagang council chair, like for example may assembly ng student councils tapos tinawag ung econ council chair, sasabihin ng tao "ah sya nga ung econ chair, mukha eh..." nung sinabi ko un, some EF person sitted at the far end of the other bench butted in the conversation and launched into a lecture about scrutinizing a candidate and voting wisely. he lectures that hindi lang basta representation ang nagmamatter, kelangan din ung visibility etc etc... like duh, you think i dont know that?

ayoko lang kasi nung nangengealam ka about the opinions of people. eh sa opinion ko mas bagay na council chair si ganito, why do you want to contest my opinions? diyos ka ba? do you know everything??? are you a social nucleus at kelangan lahat ng processing ay dumadaan sayo?

at hindi lang naman dahil gusto ko lang maging council chair si ganito kaya ko sya iboboto? you think i haven't thought about his competency before i arrived at my decision? c'mon. im far better than that. baka nga mas objective pa ko kesa sayo eh...

i am voting wisely. kahat ano pang lecture ang gawin mo I DONT CARE. we are different people with different preferences. i think the candidate im voting suits the job because of pre-reflected observations and notions. and they are proven. so i dont really care if llecturan mo ko just because im voting for the other candidate. bigyan mo muna ko ng one million, i'll give you your most wanted vote. but then again, if you do that, you'll just see me at the end of the line, laughing at the very lowly deed you just did.

actually ngayon mababa na tingin ko sayo. and who am i to say this? well, let's just say im a social detective with no strings attached. and i am very objective when it comes to comparing people and giving them property rights.

at excuse me, may ibang mga tao na wala talagang kwenta ung standards for voting. i have this classmate who told me the other day that she's voting for ****** kasi crush nya yun. oh? you want to lecture about voting wisely? target those who are voting out of infatuation, you blabberloo.

basta ako, i will vote who i want to be there. when its election time, hindi nagmamatter sakin kung very influential person ka, what matters to me is the goodness of your vision and the passion to lead the pack. my objectivity is a gaping clarity that will not be tainted by your nonsensical campaigning/lecturing-the-wrong-audience... and i hate you because you are a hypocrite.

insert: all the while toooot was lecturing i was smiling and being apprehensive.. haha! im good at projecting that angle of my face, because people really believe they are convincing me, when in fact, in my mind, im thinking, "what a talker..."

haay. i really look down on hypocrites. pero i remember my lola telling me that when you dont really like a person, you shouldn't be hypocritical like he is by continually being with him/her. although, you shouldn't also tell them in a bad way that you dont like them. what you should do is just smile yourself away. no confrontations, no violent reactions, no more unlikeable person... no wasted time, no wasted effort, and the loss is not yours... i love my lola.

anyways, i do have an economic report about india tomorrow. these people who are dwelling too much on their politics have blurred visions of the things around them and should just be dropped. im not wasting time thinking about pakialameros...

ps. i just saw this tibak person back in econ again, and loh, she was saying hello and waving hi at me, and whatever... hala!?! miss kelan pa tayo naging friends?? magpakatibak kang mag-isa mo...
