The one thing I truly dislike about any politics, Filipino, American or wherever, is the disingenuous insincere nature of some people.
We were brought up to be frank and sincere. Sometimes being honest and communicating may hurt, but in the end, the transparency of it all makes for open lines of communication that, most of the time, breeds integrity and respect.
It's going to be a snake pit soon, and it hurts me to see my grandma get hurt. At her age, she seems too frail to take what is happening or could happen. It would be a breath of fresh air, and another moment for her. haaay.

New Toy and Busted Old One
So the stereo in my mom's car broke and she asked me to look for a new one that could be used with a steering wheel remote.
Since I've had a good experience with my trusty Pioneer 8650, I got my mom the newest Pioneer 5250. This baby is so high-tech she can plug a USB Drive, an SD Card, an iPod, an auxiliary input device and regular CDs with MP3s or other audio formats to play music.
Awesome value and she gets to keep her steering wheel remote. It does help that the face looks pretty slick and high tech.
While checking the amp I gave my mom, I also looked at the old Blaupunkt speakers I used to keep in my car before they were replaced with Focal Separates.
They were blown, well one is at least. The other is still kicking loud and clear.
I love new tech.

Window Shopping Zara and Bags
Watched The Last Exorcism with Miggie then went around Greenbelt 5. We were suppose to just window shop, till I passed this Zara blazer with built-in removable hoodie.
I'm no fashionista, but this hoodie and blazer combo looked real good and they had a size that fit me just right. So I thought about it. Then asked Miggie.
Continued walking and saw this nice Samsonite for my school books.
Couldn't stop thinking about the Zara blazer though so I went back to try it on.
Looked usable everyday. Not too formal, not too casual. Plus, I've been thinking about getting the Ateneo Law hoodie they started selling in school the past two weeks. The school hoodie, at nine hundred, seemed worth it.
The price of the Zara blazer made me think twice since I was already planning on getting a custom leather bag. I called my mom and asked her. She said whatever makes me happy and if they had my size, the better, since she was planning on getting me a suit at the Fort since there was an Armani sale. Since I rarely buy clothes (I'm more of a tech and toys guy), she said go ahead.
With that out of my conscience, I carded it. Got four free movie tickets pa! Thanks Citibank! yay.

Signs You Might Need a New Lawyer
Taken from the Web:
Signs That You Might Need A New Lawyer
* During the trial, you catch him playing his Gameboy.
* Every couple of minutes he yells, "I call Jack Daniel's to the stand!" and proceeds to drink a shot.
* He places a large "No Refunds" sign on the defense table.
* He begins closing arguments with, "As Ally McBeal once said ..."
* Just before trial starts he whispers, "The judge is the one with the little hammer, right?"
* Just before he says "Your Honor," he makes those little quotation marks in the air with his fingers.
* The sign in front of his law office reads "Practicing Law Since 2:25 PM."
* Whenever his objection is overruled, he tells the judge, "Whatever."
* He giggles every time he hears the word "briefs."
* Giggles hysterically at the mere mention of the Penal Code.
* Constantly raising objections to the "vibes" he's getting from the jury.
* Every time the judge sustains one of his objections, he screams, "Yahtzee!"
* Offers to waive his usual fees in exchange for your panties.
* You met him in prison.
* He tells you that his last good case was a Budweiser.
* When the prosecutors see who your lawyer is, they high-five each other.
* He picks the jury by playing "duck-duck-goose."
* He asks a hostile witness to "pull my finger."
* A prison guard is shaving your head.
