While waiting for my turn to vote at my precint, I downloaded the WordPress app for my Blackberry to try it on for size. Thanks to Smart’s BB daily package I’m able to do unlimited online stuff for only P30 per day. The package is perfect for when I’m out of town and want to stay connected via e-mail, Yahoo! Messenger, gTalk, Facebook, and Twitter. Ugh, whatta geek.

The election is taking way too long, but truth is, I’m happy to know more people today care about the Philippines to vote and be heard. I also believe that when one doesn’t pay for government taxes and refuse to vote, then he/she should have no say when expectations of the government are not met. I am so proud of my fellow Filipinos! Especially those who carefully thought out the candidates they’re going to vote and didn’t succumb to vote-buying (or ‘eeny meeny miny moe’).

While we’re waiting for our volunteer-friend at the precint to text us when our numbers are up (estimated waiting time up to 4 hours) my cousins and I are singing along to KTV and sipping buko juice. It doesn’t get any more “Filipino” than this. Haha.

God bless the Philippines!

(Let’s see if this post goes through.)
