[we're going down...] It bothers me that the land where people I care about is in shambles. I've been all up on the internet news reading about the developments. It's sad that on the day that Filipinos were going to celebrate the 20th anniversary of People Power that they may potentially go back to the ways of Marcos. It saddens me to think that they just can't get it right. At the same time, the frustration with a self president who thinks she's doing a great job, but in reality she's putting the country to shambles. I worry about my family in The Philippines, just because I would not want them to live with such rules like that. Even though they're in the country side, who knows how corrupt they are there. I worry... because I'm afraid that something bad will happen and a lot of people will get hurt when they don't have to. As a Filipino American, it's easy to say that actions in The Philippines don't affect me, but in a some ways it does. There is just this feeling inside of me that makes me sad that all this is going on. I hope something just makes them get it right...
