September 30, 2014.
I slept 6 in the morning. The electricity is down around 8:45. It was a hell of perspiration.I spent the last of my energy from last night by shouting, 'Puta, alas-9 pa lang, tatlong oras pa lang tulog ko. Hayop na Meralco yan.' Oh, sorry for those Spanish words.
Surprisingly, I was awaken by the rings of my alarm. I should be sleeping dead. And it was a pull and push situation. Brain is full awake, but the body is sour-fully crashed. But just like the unanimous decision in a boxing game, I was up by 12:30. Damn the brain who rules my world.
I spent the next 30 minutes of my life counting my money from yesterday's salary pay. And I realized, money are just papers. Meaningless to the hands of a tired, sleepless person like me. Happy that I can somehow count my money, I decided to take a bath.
When you make every little thing a major decision making, it's time to check your wrinkles in the mirror. From the pair of undergarments I will wear today to the brand of hair shampoo or conditioner I should apply, yes, it's all part of my daily 24 hours. I'm guilty of the capital O and C. Anyway, the lines doesn't bother me as long as I got the right combination of soap everyday.
A man is a greatest thief when his hungry. I checked the fridge as if the entire contents of it are all mine. I picked the Korean biscuit, and without a second, it disappeared in my mouth. Indeed, when you're hungry, opportunities are like stars in the night sky.
Realizing I am the only one left in the house, I decided to do things faster than normal. Sa lahat ng ayoko ko, yung tinatakot ang sarili ko. Imagining things out of the concept of science is good when you got someone beside you. Don't ever try when you're alone. And so, I did a very good duck bath.
Today, I decided to put some powder on my face and color my lips. I feel sketching myself to somehow lighten the traces of stress accumulated for the past weeks. Oh gosh, I feel really worn out. Thank God, I can afford to buy make-ups. Lo, I'm so good in pretending.
Satisfied I look beautiful today, I decided to face the ugly side of the world. I hope I can find an exemption
p.s. This blog is dedicated to the cute little girl in the jeep who keeps on staring at me because of my bright lipstick. And I almost broke into laughter when I realized she's watching me every move, waiting for me to open my mouth for her to see the sparks from my braces.
