June 30 Holiday It Is

Thankfully, the inauguration day of incoming President Benigno Simeon “Noynoy” Aquino III is a special nonworking holiday. June 30 is a holiday and it is a Wednesday. I would prefer it to be a Friday but Friday or not, there’s no work! I could sleep late and I could wake up late! Hallelujah!

Anyway, it will be interesting to watch the inauguration on TV. I wonder how both the outgoing and incoming presidents will feel about being in the same limousine going to the inaugural place. Probably, they would feel antsy and awkward but would still remain civil.

Interestingly, P-Noy as the incoming president prefers to be called, is the only single president in the Philippine history to be installed in Malacanang. All of his predecessors were married and this is why his sisters are taking part in a lot of activities to help him out.
