Okay, the President's SONA is due Monday, July 28 -- so I've heard. I wonder what sort of PowerPoint-style presentation we'll see this time. I'm not a fan of the President's SONA (State of the Nation Address) and I have to admit that I've seen only quite a few. If you want to know why, that's because like many Filipinos, I grew tired of watching/listening to SONA's. And why won't I be? There are far more reasons not to watch it.

Do You Ever Get Tired of SONA’s?

This entry is part 2 of 3 in the series The 2008 PGMA SONA

I do. It's so ironic when something that happens only ONCE a year can be so tiring to listen to. Tomorrow's SONA (State of the Nation Address) to be presented (or read--pun intended) by President Arroyo has not even happened yet but as early as now, I already feel a certain level of "exhaustion". Maybe that's because I read a lot of news.

Nevertheless, you may say (yes, I know), if you're really tired of it, then why write more about it? Well, you may have a point there, but that's how I am with something I find tiring or sickening -- I tend to think about it or talk about it pretty much everyday until my brain's short term memory passes the buck to my long-term memory.
