Long weekend

Sorry for the delay... been so busy lately to update this blog... these are photos from last week of April

Long weekend with friends

This album is all about seeing old friends again and meeting new ones.

Will just got back from Chicago and begged me to join him have dinner while he waits for Kris. I on the other hand went to Trinoma to meet my close friend from Dumaguete who I haven't seen for ages. We then bumped into my new friends who share the same passion in running... Lara and Nats with Wayne having coffee at Sky Garden.

We then drove to Will's uber posh condo in QC where I stayed for the night. When we woke up the following day I decided to get a massage and went out to party but unfortunately Will can't join us but promised to meet up the next day at Pier 1 with Mike, Harold, Karen, Hi, and Alex. Oh I forgot! We even went to the christening of Jacky's niece! Hoy Will and Karen iniwan nyo pa sa kotse yung souvenirs nyo! hahaha!

What a way to end the night and spend the weekend :)

Eleksyon 2010

First ever automated election in the Philippines... was there 630 AM. I feel so fortunate because my Voting Precinct is located inside an exclusive village and has a good air-conditioning system unlike the ones being flash on TV.

There was roughly 10 people waiting to vote when I got there. I was a bit excited and bored... 5 minutes after 7AM the BEI announced that we will start.

The steps were pretty simple... though it would have been easier if they have a definite system in place and it's clearly stated on a piece of paper and posted outside or inside the precint.

They had me check and locate my name on the list and had me remember my number on the list. Then they had me sign this paper with my super old photo when I registered back in 2003 I think. Then they gave me a sample ballot and the actual ballot and I stated shading away (the ovals are too small though) and after I walked to the PICOS machine and there goes my vote... oh they had me put my thumb mark on the same list and they put indelible ink on my finger.
