The Struggling Blogger

“I appeal to the public to please give him a chance….” This was the appeal of relatives of Claudio Teehankee Jr., the convicted murderer who was given presidential favor… err clemency. Because after all, as they have said before, he has already served 20 years inside the jail.

Fact is, he did serve time, and rightly so because he did a crime. He played god and took the life of another human being. And even if he stayed inside the rest of his life, it won’t bring back the life that he took… an act that he did, because he can.

Maybe in the spirit of forgiving and reconciliation, he might just deserve a second chance… but to paint a scenario that he is also a victim here is an absolute insanity. He did time because he must pay for what he did.

I am not even in the shoes of the victim’s relatives and I am already this outraged, just imagine how they feel. That is why I can’t help but wear a sour grin everytime I hear them say “Please give him a second chance…”

Easy for them to say.

Yes, I believe that everybody does deserve a second chance… but is EVERYBODY really getting a second chance?

DEFINE EVERYBODY.

Yes, The Struggling Blogger will be on Rated K this Sunday, October 12, 2008. Although this blog won’t be featured there, but my other blog will be, which is the Letters To Mama.

I am really surprised as to how they chanced about my blog. Contacted me, and before I knew it, I’m included on their next Sunday’s episode. Rated K is shown every Sunday at ABS-CBN Channel 2, at around 6pm. (am not sure about the exact time).

I was interviewed by Miss Korina Sanchez herself. Just watch it this Sunday. Be sure to have your hanky with you.

I wish I can expound more here, but to be honest I really don’t how it will turn out or how it will be shown. I hope it won’t be something that I am going to regret someday.

So that’s it! This Sunday, October 12, 2008 at Rated K, it’s a date!

No matter how hard I try, I can’t help but commit them. Even if i reviewed my post a hundred times, something always passes me. A misplaced article or a preposition - a ‘to’ where a ‘from’ should be, an ‘on’ where an ‘in’ is more fitting.

Sometimes, I go back to my previous posts and just laugh at myself. What’s a ‘d’ doing in my sentence when I was not referring to a past event… oh, bloopers, blooper, blooper… bloopers everywhere. No wonder, proofreaders are so valuable.

I am conscious of my grammar, spelling and everything. Yet, I still can’t understand why I wrote ‘live’ and I was meaning to write ‘leave’?… oops! there’s that quotation-punctuation combination again. Will I ever get them right?

Well I do hope, whatever blunder I do commit would be forgivable. I will try to review every work, perhaps go back to my posts way back when. I’m sure I still can find some in them. In the meantime, grammar blunders or not. I hope I still get my messages across.
