.....9:51 GMT, the exact time when day=night all over and the southern hemisphere starts swinging towards the sun and us in the north begin sliding into winter depression.
Today is also the most important day in Philippine Television. It's the premiere of KC Concepcion: From Paris to Pinas. Please, can someone tape this and put it up on youtube!
All Filipinos should watch this tv special! I assure you, it will increase our country's collective IQ and accelerate our poverty alleviation programs. Remember how Paris Hilton, the American version of someone famous for being famous, increases the GDP of California every time she appears on television?
I'm sure KC Concepcion: From Paris to Pinas has a very gripping story line at madaming magandang aral na mapupulot dito.
