The Journal: Being a Boto Patroller

When I registered in our Barangay hall last Thursday, I thought everything is going to be just easy. But when my sister went to the hall, we expected a mayhem.

Total Mayhem because of the number of people who turned up, mayhem because of the threat of power outage because of the overload, and mayhem because of the long wait.

But I say, the long wait is okay, as long as I have to exercise

1. My right at a voter, and
2. My right as a Boto Patroller.

Yeah, I am a full-fledged Boto Patroller, thanks to ABS-CBN News' Boto Mo Ipatrol Mo Ako ang Simula.

I am the start of the change, And I want to do it with the most trusted news organization in the country.

Face it, we don't have a steady supply of candidates eligible for Madame's chair, Pollitcos like Manny Villar, Mar "Lalaban Tayo" Roxas, Loren Legarda, Former Pres. Erap Estrada , Gilbert Gibo Teodoro and even Gov. Ed Panlilio are not the ones we have to think over.

They may have the qualifications mandated in the constitution, but still. I don't see them really being qualified to serve the needs of the people.

And that was the reason I joined and became a Boto Patroller, I will exercise my right both as a voter and as a citizen journalist to follow whatever the outcome on the days leading to and on election day itself.

On the sinuous question to myself that "will I still vote even if we moved out of the house maybe before next year?". The answer is YES,

I love QC, I love the city, and I hate it going in the dumpster if Annie Susano becomes Mayor by the use of her iron hands. I will vote for a politico  who will lead QC to a better future than Mayor Sonny Belmonte.

And I am not endorsing any candidate.


Anyway, I am already a Boto Patroller, I want to participate in this country's first ever Automated Elections, or as Juana Change puts it, the "Lotto Elections". I will still think over the candidates and going over their resumes to see who will fit in my choice as Madame's new replacement.

But one thing is for sure. I hate Cha-cha and I hate Con-ass.


And, For the first Time, OTAKU'S VERDICT is cooking up something for the 2010 Presidential Elections, Keep tuned!


The Dissection of Haruhi Suzumiya is Next.

And that's the way it is.
