Random Thoughts and Stories For The Week...

Last weekend was probably one of my most expensive and tiring experience since I started working. I spend around 1k+ majority of it because of food. Well, I can't help my self from eating. Eating has been my favorite pastime especially when I depressed or sad. . Haha! Hopefully I won't grow into a fat person! I should watch my diet from now on.. Haha! Tiring in the sense that whole weekend I was out of the house and coming home very late. It's a good thing that it's okay for my dad to wake him up in the middle of the night just to asked him if he could open the door downstairs. Umm.. Is it really okay? Hopefully.. Hahaha!

Last Tuesday as I was going down the LRT station near our place, I saw this child carried by his father. Normally I don't look, give money, and care much of the kids who stay or beg for money near the station but I can't help but feel pitty for that child. His head was around twice the normal size already. I think the child got hydrocephalus. I don't know it that's the right term for it. And from what I heard, operating the child would cost the family alot! Feeling very sorry for the child, I went the LRT station just to give something from my pocket to help him. Hopefully they will got over that crisis that they are facing right now and that what I had given for the child would somehow help them in one way or another...

Out of Water Again!

I don't if Mr. H2O is mad at us or what... We don't have water now on our aunt's place for the past 2 days. This time, the owner have the water tank cleaned but I think that they did something wrong because they cleaned it in the afternoon but come nighttime, we still don't have water. Then I overheard my aunt's conversation with the landlady and the landlady told my aunt that normally we should be the last one to have water for we are at the 4th floor. The ones who should have water first is the first and second floor. Duh?! The water tank is on top of our floor and we are the ones who will have water last?! I don't know if the landlady knows what she's talking about... Hay.. Well, my brother told me a while ago that the motor of the pump is already there and hopefully it will be put in place with the night...

The Story of the Poor Kid

There was this kid who grew up in a nice place having enough luxiries to fill up the needs and wants of the family but things started to get worse when his mother died right before he went to college and his dad had an accident. Money started to flew away for no clear reason to the point that now they don't have enough money to sustain their everyday needs. He had two younger brothers who are still both studying and we all now that studying is starting to become one of the most expensive things to do now. It's a good thing that he is already working but not enough to support his whole family. After working for one month, his dad asked him if he could help his dad with their monthly expenses which he freely give but to a certain amount and not to the amount that his father was asking. But he started to wonder what might his dad be doing for he is most of the time doesn't have money whenever his brothers would ask him if he had money for transportation and for miscellaneous expenses for school. Well, his dad doesn't have work right now but he is thinking if his dad is right now thinking of a way on how to earn money. It seems like that his father is starting to be dependent on him for the expenses. Well, he is not the kind who is selfish but he would also like to try to have fun and enjoy life. Well, it's a good thing that he doesn't have any vices like smoking or drinking or worse drugs. He somehow have enough money for his daily expenses and enough money for his savings and would like to let his father know, that he can't support the family all by himself. I can't his dad for he doesn't have that high level of education nor did he had that good and fit body but I think he should somehow think of a way to earn some money. Well, from what I heard, it's only a temporary thing that they don't have enough money. Well, I certainly hope so that this is only a temporary thing. I don't know what this kid could do if he became all fed up... Wishing him the best of luck... Good luck dude!!

The Pandesal and The Pizza

One of my officemates walked-out when we are about to have our afternoon break a while ago. I don't know what's the root cause of his walked-out but from what I know it started from asking who would like to order something for our break and then decided to buy pizza. One (Boy A) said that he will not join us for suppostedly their group would order pandesal. Then came the pizza and the group of BoyA cannot find the facilitator to whom they will asked her to buy their pandesal. Then BoyA was looking and asking us to already start eating when one of the girls looked at her with a big smile and some of us started laughing then he suddenly said that he will not really join us anymore then walked-out. I never knew he really had that kind of temper. We tried to call him back and given tried giving him the pizza but to no avail.. He really didn't had a bite of pizza.. Well, hopefully tomorrow he's a bit okay.. Hehehe! Talked about temper.. It's a good thing that I'm not already of that type... Well, hopefully I had already cured myself... Haha!!
