Life is Like Gambling

Life is like gambling. You cannot gain anything without betting something. It would be too good to be true to do nothing and get rich.

I’m trying to imagine the big difference it will make in my life if I play casino game and win. Most people in my family, like my mom, older brother and aunt, love to gamble. I, on the other hand, don’t have it on my personality as I don’t like taking risks. But only those who put something on the line get to reap something.

I’ve never played in online casinos for real money. The only gambling I made online is playing slots in Gaia, an online hangout incorporating gaming and a virtual world. Not bad since no real money involved, just Gaia money which I earned from playing it religiously back in the days.

I was never lucky, and it maybe the reason I stay away from gambling. XD But who knows, many things change with time, no?

I Voted!

It was May 10 yesterday, the day we elect new leaders for our country. This was my second time to vote. I’ve never been this eager to participate in any kind of election in my entire life. To be honest, I felt both extremely excited to vote and scared of the results (you know how it is here in the Philippines, politics is a popularity contest).

It was chaos in my precint. I was already there early in the morning and got home at noon. I waited for almost 3 hours in line for my turn; But actually, It didn’t matter. I don’t want to bear regrets for the next 6 years.

One proud voter here.

(Pic taken in the evening, I love how my bf photomanipped and turned a low quality pic into a painting-like one, even if I look way too older here. Forgive the eyebags & the stressed face, I never sleep early.)

My presidential bet is far behind in the partial tally. Very heartbreaking. But at least, I did my part.

I can only say, God help the Philippines.
