Philippines, are you watching?

Barack Obama is President.

I'm excited, and hopeful -- for America, and the world.

I wonder when will we ever get that kind of hope here in the Philippines? When was the last time we were really, really hopeful about our country, and us, as a people?

Come to think of it, when was the last time we were inspired?

I'm kinda jealous of her.
Aside from being pretty (and not about to turn 30 anytime soon), she has a President she can believe in.

But today, I am hopeful. And happy that there is a man who can inspire change.

I just hope that we Filipinos are not just watching -- but more importantly, are learning from this historic event too.

When will our new day come?
