A ROOKIE POLITICAL SCIENTIST

It is a pity indeed that some people use contradictory adjectives to describe a person, but the most unfortunate fact is that you can be judged according to lies and exaggeration.

Optimism... Truthfulness... Self-actualization... these three words are my personal principles in life...

I am Jommel, and I am myself. I have my own identity that is unique and special.

I am a person with merry nature and I also have the ability to do two things at the same time. I think very critical and I do not let undue family ties nor party centrism blind me. My mind works with quick ease. I am generous to my friends and I adapt myself readily, which makes me considerate and affable.

I have this ambition to destroy the status quo and reform the governmental and political systems of our country, although I deny that I am a radical in my political views.

I am famous (or, in some cases, infamous) for being aggressive in my thoughts. my fearless views sometimes gain me friends, but most of the time they turn people against me, which is quite understandable in a case-to-case basis. However, as long as I do not cross my limitations, I think I am entitled to express my ideas and sentiments. Even my closest friends consider this as a problem, but I really do not care.

I don't talk too much but I frequently ask too many questions. One thing that is not ideal about me is that I lack concentration. I have a tendency to scatter my energies. I am also very susceptible to flattery and often become irritated rather easily, which makes it difficult for me to maintain my poise. Trouble and worry make bad effects on me an I am inclined to give way easily. When provoked I can be your worst enemy. I'm unable to accept the bitter facts and I tend to show my annoyance in a rather blunt manner.

People sometimes label me as a difficult person. Maybe because they do not understand me of being principled and firm. I always try to be incorruptible. I believe that this country will not move forward if you are just contented of what we have.

It is alright to be ambitious, as long as you do not make exaggerations.

I am Jommel Jaucian, at your service.

What Jommel Means

You are fair, honest, and logical. You are a natural leader, and people respect you. You never give up, and you will succeed... even if it takes you a hundred tries. You are rational enough to see every part of a problem. You are great at giving other people advice. You are well rounded, with a complete perspective on life. You are solid and dependable. You are loyal, and people can count on you. At times, you can be a bit too serious. You tend to put too much pressure on yourself. You are confident, self assured, and capable. You are not easily intimidated. You master any and all skills easily. You don't have to work hard for what you want. You make your life out to be exactly how you want it. And you'll knock down anyone who gets in your way! You are friendly, charming, and warm. You get along with almost everyone. You work hard not to rock the boat. Your easy going attitude brings people together. At times, you can be a little flaky and irresponsible. But for the important things, you pull it together. You are relaxed, chill, and very likely to go with the flow. You are light hearted and accepting. You don't get worked up easily. Well adjusted and incredibly happy, many people wonder what your secret to life is.

Hoo... let's start...

Well, I have already met many people - people of different walks of life.

I want to meet people who are indeed human beings... that's all.
