cheated

I'm one of those who, perhaps in some of your eyes, take things for granted.

In the political sense that is.

But the last couple of weeks have been an eye opener.

I perhaps am actually quite clueless about the government, the opposition, the things that go on in the the Dewan Parlimen, the "issues".

I mean, yes I might read about it, or hear people talking about it, but nope, never taken any particular interest.

But the BERSIH and HINDRAF rallies both opened my eyes, and all of a sudden, I stop, look, listen and try to find out more.

I don't know how to say this exactly... Quite at a loss for words... But am I the only one feeling like this?

Suddenly, I feel cheated.

The next GE will be my first election.
