elections '07

today i woke up early.
drank coffee.
took a bath.
and headed to ourown destinations.
we were to give out flyers and sample ballots,
pwede yun basta not inside the voting area :)

THIS IS THE ROUTINE:

"Good Morning/ 'Gandang Umaga po!"
*sabay abot ng flyer*
*tapos kunin man o hindi...*
"Thank you po!"

this i did for 4 hours--- non-stop.

some people were nice.
and some people were huge aholes.
and some people were MAJOR aholes:

"Ano ba toh?! *sabay tapon ng flyer*
Eh hindi naman makaipit ng pera to e!"
kawawa ka naman, napepresyohan lang prinsipyo mo. tsk tsk

there were some people intelligent enough to ask what was AKAPIN all about.
muntik pa nga ako maiyak. haha ganon talaga paggaling sa puso. chos. pero chos aside...

i received the most fabulous text message of today:

"Kai, pgtpos mo dyan,
punta k central,
first gate, bomoto ka!
andun pngalan mo!"
-Si Papa

wohoo! 11am came and we went straight to central elementary school to vote--- PERS TAYM!
walked. turn right. asked.2nd floor daw.
name?
Docot po!
DOCOT? Naku dun sa dulo dinukot na pangalan mo!
*nyenyenye mamatay ka sa kakornihan mo*
((mga taong taga-baryo at the background: ow? 18 na pala yan!))
No. 64 Therese Ma. Francesca Sarsonas Docot
ayos!

went to the teacher's table, signed my name, stained my thumb, got the ballot, wrote my bet, at napaparaning ako ngayon if i wrote AKAPIN correctly.potah. went back to the table, sealed my ballot, dropped it, and had my index finger stained.

that was it. nakaboto na ako. i hope my candidates will not turn out to be colossal pigs.
hayayayayay.
thank you sa mga nakinig sa akin.
thank you sa mga boboto.

i'll be crossing my fingers...
hayayay!
good luck!
