I feel relieved because today's Friday. But my brain's already on weekend mode. I can't think of any topic to write here.. I'll just share what I read today.
President Arroyo continues to receive criticisms both in the country and in the USA for spending almost two million pesos in her two dinners while in America for a state visit. She was reported to have dined in two expensive restaurants - one in a French restaurant called Le Cirque and the other in Bobby Van's Steakhouse. People are reacting violently because they know how hard life is for a lot of Filipinos these days. Most think that the money they lavishly used could have fed millions. The Malacanang, however, is denying it. They reasoned that the president was just treated in those meal and that she didn't spend any single penny. (Philippine Star) I say, really? Then, who paid it? Can our leaders who claim to love the nation stomach to pay out that much for dinner considering their beloved countrymen? Phooey!
