Yung advancements and investitures na pinagdaanan ko nung Senior Scout ako grabe, tapos yung president ng BSP, maarte? Anong kalokohan ‘to Ser? Ang daming mararangal na nagbubuwis buhay para makatulong sa gobyerno, ang daming taong kung saan saan bumagtas, kung anu-ano ang itinawid, maiahon lang sa marangal na paraan ang pamilyang naghihikahos tapos ito po, itong taong ito na kumakandidato sa pagiging presidente ng Pilipinas, putik lang ho ang tatawirin, madudungisan lang ang balat na sapatos, mababasa ang dulo ng pantalon, hindi kayang gawin. Hindi kayang isakripisyo. Aba Ser, alam kong a scout is clean pero yung clean ho doon eh hindi lang sa physical ha? Sana sa konsiyensya rin ho ano? Pakiisabuhay nga po ang Scout Oath and Law, hindi na ho kayo kapanipaniwala ser.
Uh oh… Nobody informed his highbess that there will be photo ops so he could have prepared for the mud and ‘maka masa’ gimmicks.
