If you were given a chance to interview the most notorious woman in Philippine history, how would it make you feel? Excited? Anxious? Would you start to hyperventilate and throw up? Well, if you were 16, innocent, and a bit naive, perhaps those mixed emotions I mentioned wouldn’t be that difficult to comprehend. In an article from\u00a0Rappler<\/a><\/strong>, writer\u00a0Marguerite de Leon\u00a0describes her intense, nerve-wracking interview experience when she was 16 with no other than Madame Imelda Marcos herself. As\u00a0the school paper’s editor-in-chief at the Philippine High School for the Arts in Mount Makiling, which was founded by Imelda herself, the school’s\u00a025th anniversary allowed Marguerite the chance to interview the founder herself,\u00a0of which she gladly agreed to do so. And like any interview, a set of questions were carefully prepared, making sure to avoid anything politically related as possible. But alas, Imelda took over everything. “No matter what kind of questions I had, however, it quickly became clear that Imelda was in charge. She hijacked that session and steered it from an innocent chat with a kid to a burning plea for mercy and justice,” wrote Marguerite.<\/p>\n
