What do I know about her?

• She is known as (Tita) Cory Aquino.
• The first female Philippine President from 1986 to 1992.
• She was a brave leader and known for her commitment to democracy, peace, and women's issues.
• The widow of Benigno Aquino Jr, a former leader of Philippine opposition who was assasinated in 1983 at Philippine NAIA which explains why the place is named after him. (Ninoy Aquino International Airport)
• She is famously known of her trademark - yellow dress.
• She is 76 years old.

The reason why I know her this much is that she became the President of the Philippines after the People's Power on February 25, 1986. Since then, February 25 is declared a holiday every year. If that doesn't make any sense, February 25 is my birthday...

But today, August 1, 2009, after she had suffered a series of health problems and due to complications from colon cancer, she already passed away :(.

President Cory Aquino

May You Rest In Peace!

A legend has died...

What a sad day today. After Farrah Fawcett, now is the ''King of Pop''. I'm not a big fan of MJ but I am shocked to hear this sad news. Michael Jackson died at 50 due to cardiac arrest. This is such a realization that life is really short and that we ALL come and go.

May You Rest In Peace MJ!!!
