I feel a little better today so I've no choice but to get back to work later, hoping that the medications I'm taking are enough to help me last a day at work. My temperature's been stable for the last 12 hours, good, I'm healthy again.

As I sit here in front of the computer, the TV blares beside me since my gramma is watching her favorite evening news. I barely heard the sound coming from the TV, I decided I'll finish updating this blog before slouching on the bed to watch. I also like watching the evening news, even though most of the time, the news is all the same, murders, thief, crimes, etc. Still, it's more amusing to watch compared to those so-called teledramas that most average people have come to love for reasons I can never tell.

I caught a glimpse of one news that made my stomach sick. No, it's not about someone raping an underage girl, or someone being ran over by a truck, it's much worse than that. The prize of 3 million pesos was won on the popular tv gameshow Hole in the Wall. Guess who won? Those former Starstruck idiots who's claim to fame is their good looks and nothing else. What's that all about?!

I have very strong sentiments when it comes to rich people getting richer by winning on some lame game show. Isn't it enough that they're already filthy rich? It sickens me to think that a game show will give millions of pesos to someone who can actually earn it overnight. Ok, that might be an exaggeration but point is, they don't need the goddamn money.

I leaned closer to the tv as Mark Herras was asked what he'll do with the money. He answered, 'ohh it'll be for the house.. blah blah blah'. Right, like how many house do you plan to have? Do you plan to have twice as much as you need while other people consider the sidewalk as their house? 3 million pesos in the hands of unworthy shitheads? No wonder why the economy in this country is stinking bad.

It makes me sick. Sicker than I felt when I was struggling with the fever. The sickness I feel now is worse than that.

Fuck Hole in the Wall.

Fuck those starstruck bastards who seriously don't even know how to act.

Fuck those crappy game shows.

3 million? Stop shitting us, poor people are not as dumb as you think.
