Woman of the hour

For the record, I am not writing this because I want to take part in bullying, calling her names and bad-mouthing the woman of the hour, Deniece. Wait, I think that should be "woman of the week" instead as it has been so since Vhong (with an H) appeared on national TV like a beaten sparring partner of Pacquiao. Though I'm irritated with names having an irrelevant H, I do wish for his speedy recovery from that unimaginable trauma. No one ever deserves to be treated like that.

Every house, I believe, is waiting how this scandal will end. And even if I knew how people raged on the CCTV footages presented by the NBI, I once tried to put myself in Deniece's situation to be able to understand where her "courage" is coming from. Yung tipong "bilang isang kapwa babae" point of view.

You know it's not easy being interviewed just by yourself, answering accusations alone, proving your statements from interviewers who has each own judgement, and most of all, logging in to all your social media accounts only to be bombarded with so much hate from the whole world. This is definitely not the best way to gain followers on IG and Twitter. Can she still sleep soundly pa kaya these days? And how are her parents coping up with the issue? For these, I give her my sympathy. For all we know, she could be a victim as well. But if you ask me about her TV interviews, well that's a different story.

Teka, how did it all start ba? Was there an infidelity issue in the first place? Or it's just that people nowadays are fond of being too casual, like giving out mobile numbers, inviting someone to your place on your second meet and making out with someone you barely knew. Jusmiyo, whatever happened to golden rule "never trust a stranger?". Tsk! 

Sana lang talaga, justice will be served asap to whoever is proven guilty, because seriously, madami pang problema ang bansa natin na dapat unahin! I hope the pork barrel scam and the Yolanda victims were not like calendar pages flipped when we bid farewell to 2013. I wonder how the worldwide donations are being liquidated? How much billions again?? Hmmm...
