Sa anong kadahilanan? Sinayang lang daw niya ang pagkakataong binigay ng nakararami na magbigay ng mgandang serbisyo sa publiko, na mapatunayang karapat-dapat siya sa posisyon bilang pangulo ng bansa. Ngunit hindi natin naiintindihan at patuloy tayong nagiging bulag sa naging katayuan niya ngayon.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mula noong maupo siya sa pwesto bilang pangulo, may mga patago nang nagpaplano upang matanggal siya sa pwesto. Hindi pa man tapos ang termino niya, madami na agad mga paratang sa kanya. Halatang pinag-aralan lahat ng mga kilos at galaw niya upang mahanapan siya ng butas at mapatalsik siya sa pwesto.  Sa madaling salita, hindi siya nabigayan ng pagkakataong mapatunayan ang pagiging mabuting pangulo niya sa atin. Ngunit ganoon pa man, nakita natin ang ilang mabuti at magandang pagbabago sa bansa.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sa kabilang banda, bakit hindi natin siya bigyan ng isa pang pagkakataon na maging pangulo ng bansa? Madami na din naman siyang nagawang maganda sa ating bayan. Hayaan nating maipagputuloy niya ang nasimulan niya noon. Malamang sasabihin niyo na ayaw niyo sa kanya dahil korap siya, hindi siya makakatulong sa bansa, at iba pa. Bkt, sinong pangulo ba ang hindi korap? Wala naman di ba? Kaya lang naman ganoon ang reaksyon ng ibang tao kay Erap ay dahil sa paninira ng mga taong nagpatalsik sa kanya na hanggang ngayon ay hindi na naalis sa isipan ng mga mamamayan, lalong lalo na sa mga kabataan.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5433946924304278497-3573131100349663971?l=annethought.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://annethought.blogspot.com/feeds/3573131100349663971/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://annethought.blogspot.com/2009/06/sa-ikalawang-pagkakataon.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5433946924304278497/posts/default/3573131100349663971'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5433946924304278497/posts/default/3573131100349663971'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://annethought.blogspot.com/2009/06/sa-ikalawang-pagkakataon.html' title='Sa Ikalawang Pagkakataon'/><author><name>yoyo cici</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00733337788678233077</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_SU4i3-uwvn4/SjN8nxWV5_I/AAAAAAAAAAs/LxjO563sHSs/S220/aaa.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5433946924304278497.post-8267656888443021006</id><published>2009-05-28T02:28:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-05-28T02:35:36.412-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Why not Erap?</title><content type='html'>&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Why not Erap? : an ambiguous phrase that questions everybody.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Why can't we consider Erap to run for Presidency in 2010 Election since the only thing he wants is the common good for his people? Besides, he has so many supporters who still believe in him and in his advocacy. He is running because he wants to correct the things that went wrong in the past.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Why not give the former president Joseph Estrada another chance to run this coming 2010 election to prove himself that he deserves to serve again the Filipino people. If I were to ask who among the living past and present presidents had given his/her best service to the Philippines,  and had provided so much benefits to the Filipinos that would be Joseph Estrada. If we will sum up and compare all the things that they have done for us, only Erap made a big difference!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Regarding the Executive Clemency given by President Gloria Arroyo, the issue tells that by the time Erap accepted the pardon, he can no longer run for presidency again. But according to Atty. Coco Pimentel III, he stressed out that Erap can still run because along with the power vested upon the clemency that gave him his freedom, it was also stated that with his release, his political and civilian rights will be restored. When tackled further, civilian rights includes the right to vote, while political rights give the privilege to run and be voted upon, which concludes that a promise sworn in exchange for freedom won't hold him back from running in 2010.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5433946924304278497-8267656888443021006?l=annethought.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://annethought.blogspot.com/feeds/8267656888443021006/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://annethought.blogspot.com/2009/05/why-not-erap.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5433946924304278497/posts/default/8267656888443021006'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5433946924304278497/posts/default/8267656888443021006'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://annethought.blogspot.com/2009/05/why-not-erap.html' title='Why not Erap?'/><author><name>yoyo cici</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00733337788678233077</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_SU4i3-uwvn4/SjN8nxWV5_I/AAAAAAAAAAs/LxjO563sHSs/S220/aaa.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5433946924304278497.post-6560702018651898591</id><published>2009-05-25T23:41:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-05-26T01:22:36.724-07:00</updated><title type='text'>NLE awaits you!</title><content type='html'>&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;The upcoming Nursing Board Exam will be on June 6 and 7. For sure, all the nursing graduates  who are planning to take the NLE are very much excited and nervous as well. This will be the moment for them. After four years of studying all the nursing concepts: Foundations of Nursing, Maternal and Child Nursing Care, Medical-Surgical Nursing, Psychiatric Nursing, Community Health Nursing, Nursing Research, and Leadership and Management, only one exam will be their judge if they are really qualified to become a registered nurse!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As a nursing student, I am very much concerned with this matter especially to my friends who will be taking up the Board Exam this June. I am also excited for them. It makes me wonder, after one year, I will graduate, finish the Nursing course, take up Nursing Review, and take up the Board Exam. I will be like them. I will feel what they feel right now. It is quite exciting!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;One of my professors once told me, "take the board exam when you are READY". Yes, it's true! You will know in yourself if you are ready enough to pass the Nursing Board Exam. If you think you are not yet ready, don't push yourself trying to get rid of it because if you have doubts, you might fail...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well, to all nursing graduates who are ready to take the exam, GOOD LUCK!!! If this course is really your passion, I know, you will pass!!!

Idinaing ng mga tao ang mga kakulangan ng pabahay. Ayon sa mga residente para itong "Kahong walang laman" kung saan ito'y hindi nila inaasahan. "walang kubeta, walang lababo, walang tubig at ang baho-baho", ani Sarah, isang residente.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Higit na sa 8000 pamilya ang naninirahan dito ngayon at mas naghihirap sila. Paano nga daw ba sila makakpag aplay ng trabaho kung ang kaya lang nila ay pagbobote at dyaryo. Isinisisi naila sa gobyerno ang kahirapang tinatamasa nila hinggil sa pabahay na ito. Hindi man nila mismo sinabi na "Kasalanan 'to ni Erap!", ngunit parang ganoon ang lumalabas na nangyari sapagkat iyon ay pabahay ng dating pangulong Joseph Estrada.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hayaan niyo po akong ibigay ang aking opinyon at saloobin ukol dito sa mga pahayag ng mga residente ng "Erap City".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Unang-una, naging proyekto ito ni Erap noong siya ay nanunungkulan pa sa Pilipinas. Ngunit ano ba ang ginawa sa kanya?! Siya ay tinanggalan ng kapangyarihan na mamuno sa Bansa, kung kaya't hindi na niya naasikaso ang "Erap City". Hindi naman tamang palabasin na ang nangyari sa mga residente ng Erap City ay kakulangan ni Erap. Ito ay kapabayaan ng kasalukuyang gobyerno.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sa kabilang banda, ang mga negatibong pahayag ng mga residente na sa aking palagay ay hindi patas. Sabihin na nating sila ay nabigyan ng bahay ngunit marami pa ring kulang sa kanilang pangangailangan. Kung isa man ako sa mga iskwater na napabilng sa mga nabigyan ng bahay, ako ay magiging kontento at lubos na masaya. Ako ay magsisikap upang mapunan ang mga pagkukulang ng gobyerno. Hindi yung ako na nga ang natulungan, ako pa ang nagagalit at nagrereklamo. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Nais ko lamang maipahatid sa publiko ang aking opinyon hinggil sa isyung ito.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5433946924304278497-7496688717224475397?l=annethought.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://annethought.blogspot.com/feeds/7496688717224475397/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://annethought.blogspot.com/2009/05/erap-city-sablay-na-pabahay.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5433946924304278497/posts/default/7496688717224475397'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5433946924304278497/posts/default/7496688717224475397'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://annethought.blogspot.com/2009/05/erap-city-sablay-na-pabahay.html' title='Erap City: Sablay na pabahay?'/><author><name>yoyo cici</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00733337788678233077</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_SU4i3-uwvn4/SjN8nxWV5_I/AAAAAAAAAAs/LxjO563sHSs/S220/aaa.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5433946924304278497.post-7969241960259962451</id><published>2009-05-05T19:36:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-05-05T20:00:03.444-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Lozada's arrest</title><content type='html'>&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;The news of Lozada's arrest and detention last April 29, 2009 made so many people worried including the former presidents Cory Aquino and Joseph Estrada, a group of Makati Businessmen, several senators, and a movement for good governance. They have given their full support to Jun Lozada.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mike defensor stated that he doens't want Lozada in jail, but what had happened? Lozada was arrested for the case of Perjury.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I think this is just too personal for Defensor to pursue this case since two Cabinet officials called to convince him to drop the case filed against Lozada. "My only intent is to clear my name, this is not political for me", "I am doing this for my children because I do not want my name to appear in law books that I was a kidnapper" Defensor said.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Despite of the call given by the two cabinet officials, why is it Lozada was still arrested?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Are the convincing powers of Malacanang not enough to persuade Defensor drop the case against Lozada?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well the good thing is, at least June Lozada was not handcuffed upon arrested.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5433946924304278497-7969241960259962451?l=annethought.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://annethought.blogspot.com/feeds/7969241960259962451/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://annethought.blogspot.com/2009/05/lozadas-arrest.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5433946924304278497/posts/default/7969241960259962451'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5433946924304278497/posts/default/7969241960259962451'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://annethought.blogspot.com/2009/05/lozadas-arrest.html' title='Lozada&apos;s arrest'/><author><name>yoyo cici</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00733337788678233077</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_SU4i3-uwvn4/SjN8nxWV5_I/AAAAAAAAAAs/LxjO563sHSs/S220/aaa.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5433946924304278497.post-6870894665510780391</id><published>2009-04-27T22:13:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-05-26T01:24:10.336-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Erap and the Church</title><content type='html'>&lt;div style="font-family: arial;" align="justify"&gt;Marami nang artikulo ang nailabas at nabasa, marami nang nagsalita, at marami nang reaksyon ang ating napakinggan at nakita.
