So, I joined the Obama fever bandwagon...I only heard him from the news but I really did not pay attention up until this "historical day" of his inauguration. The two Philippines' biggest media companies namely ABS-CBN and GMA are covering the event as it unfolds live straight from the US...So I guess I will be awake till 2am to witness myself the charismatic leader who would faced the looming economy and war against terrorism inherited from the not-so-quite-former president George Bush.
It's really amazing how a leader of another country would somehow affect Philippines by politics alone...Common Filipinos may not be as excited about America these days, since we have a lot more problems here on our own.
However, aren't we one of the countries who is the biggest recipient of humanitarian aid in the US, jobs such as call centers...blah blah blah...
For most of us, including myself who would like to be employed in US in a near near near future...it still is..."The Land of Dreams"
Although Canada is the best option...
