Such a lame ass title, I know… Why can’t I think of a good one? Sheesh…

Anyway, I just got back from meeting with a former orgmate with regards to my task in Philippine Blog Awards, he is my junior so he’s still at school, and with that he gave me the “scoop” on whatever’s happening in the school. It saddens me how corrupt the system can be, whether it’s national or just within the campus. It frustrates me how students are able to fool their fellow students behind their back but preach about how good their platforms were come election time.

I can’t believe anyone had the decency to spend 22,000 pesosesoses in just some months without proper liquidation papers to support it and still have the face to go up to us and say that all they could think about was our welfare.

Why haven’t I seen it before?

He was so kapal to say his speech in front of so many people during our graduation. He was so kapal to say how hard it is to be able to get where he was when all he had to do then was suck up to the right people. He did not have the delicadeza to think that our professors did the work for him. They gave him flat 1 grades so they could pull him up. I know no one could understand it nor have any inkling on what I’m talking about but… I just can’t help but say it.

No one, not one, has the right to be a reporter in GMA 7 if his grade is courtesy of so and so professor. No one, not one, has the right to be a reporter in GMA 7 if his term of office is filled with scandals and 22,000 pesos unaccounted expenditures. What about the reputation a reporter has to take care of? I know I will not be able to look at him and not think whether or not how much this politician gave him for him to say what he did.

I never approved of him, I hate his guts, I did not like seeing him then. He has gayness all over him but then he would tell people that he’s straight. I don’t know, I’m not homophobic, well maybe slight, but there is something about closet gays that irk me. I know having them admit that they are gay will not make my life better… but… I don’t know… Note, I heart gays OK, I have a lot of gay friends but, as I’ve said, there’s something about closet gays. Anyway that’s another post so… Where was I?

Yeah, I don’t like seeing him, especially when I knew that a certain professor gave him a flat 1 when he does not even have a perfect attendance. How can you perfect a class that you’re hardly in, right? And that he had mistreated a friend and fellow Art.Kom member of mine just because she enjoyed staying with us more than them who are bunch of faggots and wannabe rich kids. Specially when he made it look like we owe our little organizations existence to him, which to my surprise (just now) was not even accredited by the university.

So yeah… that year, we wasted our time campaigning for our organization looking for members and rackets, fighting people who would give us scraps for a very well built backdrop on a humongous stage. I think they believed we are a bunch of miracle workers. Sheesh.

I do not envy him, mind you, yes, it was my dream to be a reporter and be able to travel while getting paid. But I enjoy what I am doing right now, it’s just that… He doesn’t deserve where he is right now. I know a lot of people who would die to be in his place who are more deserving, more honest, who have enough decency to work, literally, hard for what they have and what they would get.

He doesn’t deserve to be there, not when a friend of mine is forced to clean up the mess he made (read: she amongst other, are required to pay that 22K missing) just because he can not lead without overspending over stuff that we don’t need. It’s just… how ironic and how &%$#(& convenient for him that this leaked a year after he graduated. It sucks, big time, and I hate it, I hate him and the rest of his cronies. It’s just so… unfair.

But one thing that the meeting made me realize (aside from I hate him) is that I miss being at school again… I miss the times when we would all just be in our office/tambakan and laugh our assess off because of some corny jokes that we know. Or how loud we are when we’re hungry but we would all be silenced by the foods in front of us. Ah… the good times. It made me want to go back there… Maybe this Friday, I will, so I could get my long overdue TOR na rin :D *sigh* I wonder what else had changed… or remained the same.
