Just for an update

Yes, I voted someone from the disqualified party, Isang Bansa.

But just in the local government. Since I know little of the candidates and their respective platforms in the local government, I mostly based my decision on what party they are affiliated with. I didn't want to abstain as it can be used as a tool for cheating.

Indelible Ink

If you wash it with alcohol almost immediately after you got it, most likely it will come off. However, I didn't do that, and now I still have that stain on my fingernail. It now looks like I have a dead nail or something.

I might do another layout for my blog since Blogger upgraded their services. They offer more flexibility for design now.

Is the FPJ camp scared?

Earlier today, FPJ called for a press conference and blamed the media for showing the wrong results regarding the elections, and called his supporters to guard the canvassing and join him for a victory rally. Right now, GMA is leading all polls done by different groups like GMA-7, ABS-CBN, and Namfrel. Every poll except for the KBP one, FPJ's own election count, where he dramatically leads over GMA. Is this a sign of an impending rally for election fraud if FPJ doesn't win the elections? Would the non-FPJ supporters believe him? The past surveys, exit polls and official counts are all against FPJ's claim.

Survivor: All Stars - Best Survivor Ever

It was down to Amber and Rob, the two who stuck together since the beginning of the season. They had an alliance, everyone knew it, yet they still remained intact. Even if their style of playing wasn't the most moral of all techniques, it was one of the smartest and strongest. They had the control of the ship and steered it in whatever direction they wanted to go. Sure, they ran over some ducks swimming along the way, and threw some people overboard, but it's a game, and for people with big targets on their backs, it's their only chance of survival.

So the jury went in with the "lesser of two evils", Amber wins the Survivor, Rob second place in a 4-3 decision, but it didn't matter. Either way, they still get the cars and the money. Emphasize the word "THEY". My sweet Amber and Rob are now engaged! *LUCKY GUY* Rob proposed in front of a live audience in the Survivor finale, and gave her a ring with a huge diamonds with little ones encrusted around the ring. How's that for a construction worker?

Jerri walked out in the finale after she got dissed by the crowd when she tried to explain her anguish over the broken friendships in Survivor just for the entertainment of the people. However, like Rich Hatch said (who by the way also found a loving partner when he was voted out), it was just a game. Jeff Probst emphasized this in his analogy of Survivor being a poker game. In poker, if you bluff, nobody gets hurt, but in Survivor, if you bluff, it has a bigger scale and repercussions. To add more emphasis in their point, Rob and Tom, whose friendship bonds were severed during the game, was mended in the finale as shown by their handshake.

We also find out in the finale that Jenna M. and Ethan are seeing each other, Sue had undergone liposuction and face surgeries (and she looked great), Shii Ann got a car from Amber, and the other Jenna got married. The audience (that includes us) could also vote now in CBS.com for the Survivor who we want to give the million dollars. If you want to give it to the winner of Survivor and make her more richer, go ahead. I'd give it to Kathy if it were me.
