piffle princess overtakes miss nazareth pageant
Besides commemorating our country's Independence Day this June 12, our barangay will also be celebrating its Fiesta on said date. One of the highlighted events organized for the festivity is the Miss Nazareth pageant, and our neighbor's 16 year-old daughter, an incoming freshman majoring in education, is actually participating.
Well earlier today I went out to do some errands, and I came home tired and slightly pissed off because of some irrelevant event. I was obviously in a foul mood when our neighbor came to visit with a piece of paper in her hand. It was a set of questions for the pageant, and she was requesting for my immediate help in answering for her daughter's sake. I felt even more pissed off, but grudgingly accepted the task. I told her though that if possible, I'd like to speak with her daughter and know what her thoughts are regarding these questions. The young girl came over, and I ran through the questions, asking her opinions and giving her some advices. She actually had some ideas, but IMO she's still too young and unprepared for the pageant. I hope she'll try to understand the answers and not just memorize them. Well, we'll just see if she makes it through this night.
And now, I shall present to you my (ahem. ahem.) "expertise" (whatever. whatever.) in answering pageant questions.
(I finished this after an hour and didn't know if I should just laugh, or become even more pissed off... XD)
1. What can you do to ease the problem of global warming?
As a concerned citizen, I can help solve the problem of global warming by being responsible. At home, I must conserve water and electricity and recycle. Outside my home, I should throw garbage properly, take care of our plants, trees and rivers, help minimize pollution. Most importantly, teach and share to other people to love and care for our surroundings. I believe that if we work together, we can save our world from global warming.
2. What sets you apart from other women?
I believe that the trait that makes me stand out from others is my being true to myself. I am honest and do things with a clear conscience. I do not pretend to be someone I am not. It is because of this that people can easily trust me and love me.
3. What makes you happy?
4. What makes you smile?
(My pamily... XD XD XD)
My family and friends are important to me because I love them and they also love me. They helped me and cared for me so that I can be who I am today. So if my loved ones are happy and contented, then I am also happy and contented, then I have a reason to smile.
5. What makes you cry?
I easily cry when I see people feel sad or hurt. I cry because I care for them and understand them, so when I see them sad, I also feel sad.
6. As a woman, what can you best contribute to the community?
I know I can do many things for my community but the best thing that I can do is to teach the children, because they are our future. And as a woman I know I can do this very well, because it is natural for me to be loving and caring in everything I do.
7. Between love and power, what would you choose and why?
I would choose love, because love is powerful, and love conquers all. If I have love, I will always feel happy, strong and inspired to do the best in everything. And a person with love is always beautiful.
8. If there is one part of your body that you would most like to share, what would it be and why?
I would like to share my mind, because I believe that knowledge is important for progress and prosperity.
9. If there's one historical personality that you most like, who would it be? And why?
(There's something erroneous about the way this question is phrased, but anyway... XD)
I am very proud and inspired by our former president, Mrs Corazon Aquino, because first of all she is a supportive wife and a loving mother. She is very intelligent and was not afraid to lead our country. And even now when she is struggling with her illness, she still shows hope and faith. I want to be a strong woman like her.
10. What is it in women, that men want the most? And why?
(Big boobs!!! XD)
I believe men are attracted to women who are intelligent. Because a smart woman will always show confidence, can do many things, and is an interesting person to talk with.
11. Between a guy who's poor yet intelligent and a guy who's rich but dull, both equally kind and gentle, who among the two would you give your heart? Why?
(None of them! Because I want a smart, rich, and good looking man... HO-HO-HO XD)
I would choose the guy who is poor yet intelligent because I know if he is smart, he can do many things to become successful and rich. But a guy who is dull, no matter how rich, can never become smart, because money can never buy knowledge.
(On second thought, can I just choose the rich guy? *evil grin* Then I'll just kill him off and inherit his wealth. But that's just my wicked random thought. XD)
12. How can you mend a broken heart?
(What the --- is that a song title? XD XD XD)
I can mend a broken heart by being an understanding friend. I will cheer you up, support you, encourage you, and help you move on and become happy and complete again.
13. What project can you suggest to the Barangay Captain who's also a woman that would greatly help in empowering women?
The Barangay Captain (I actually don't know her name XD) is an inspiration for all of us women. I would like to suggest to her to make programs for women, like livelihood projects, lectures on women's health care, breastfeeding and pregnancy, and other supportive projects for women.
14. Are men more superior than women?
I believe we are all created equal. There are things that only men can do (like pee while standing up XD) and there are things that only women can do (give birth!). There is no superiority or inferiority, only equality.
15. What is the best thing a woman can give to her family, to her community, and to her man? Why?
I believe the best thing a woman can give is love, because if a woman loves her family, her community and her man, she will be inspired and strengthened to do her best in everything.
I thank you. BOW. XD
*pissed off!!!*
