Time-Out!
I need this break. Every student like me needs it. Who wouldn’t? And so, my wish came true. The school gave in and let me go home at last. It’s not really a break like a holiday break. It’s Intramurals week. You know, the week where model-ish, athlete-ish, brain-ish, talented-ish shows off their all. Me? Nah, I better let my brain rest after all the stress and trauma I went through last midterms. And I’ll add this to my excuse: I don’t like to show off my abilities because I don’t have one. Ahahahahaha. Let’s face it.
Anyways, going home is the best. Nothing beats my hometown, my house and of course my family and the food! Why did I ever exchange this wonderful life to Cebu-away from home-foodless-life? Well I need to grab a good education there but I don’t want to be far away from home anymore!! Anyways, moving on, I’m home and I need all the seconds in this one week break to take a break!
I can use the internet as much as I want and I own the television for the time being. Well, we don’t have a t.v cable since birth that’s why I brought a Korean drama in DVD with me. I do love watching Asian or American series. Anyways there, those two stuffs are relaxing to me. Plus I can eat all the good food without spending even a dime and emptying my wallet. I love home. I miss my mommy, my daddy and my three little, idiotic, funny, pessimistic brothers. Try living alone and you’ll feel what I’m feeling. And and and, the best part is this.. We have yaya’s to the rescue. I don’t have to wash the dishes or seep the floor this time. Last summer, I suffered a bit because our yaya’s will just come and go. Now, they’re here to save the day and my one week break. Ha Ha Ha. Just for once okey??
In every happy story theirs always something that is not so happy. My brother got sick. So sick I might say. He had this flu going on for a week. Making my mother tired, worried and anxious everyday. And I have to run errands for her like giving my brother sponge baths, buying medicines, going to the doctor with them, watching for my other brothers and stuffs like that. I have to cut short my one week break because today, a Saturday.. I need to go back to Cebu. My brother is being transferred to another hospital because he’s not just having an ordinary fever but a Dengue. That’s a scary one. There’s no cure for Dengue am I right? So I have to listen to orders and go with them. The annoying thing is, Lolo Pot (the owner of the university I’m in & I call him Lolo Pot because.. I feel like it) the annoying thing is that Lolo Pot declared Monday a holiday or something like continuation of championship games. Nice one Lolo Pot. Hay naku!! Anyways, I don’t have to complain. All I have to do now is pray and wish that my brother will get better soon. I want him to be healthy so that my mom can feel at ease too.
That’s basically it. My one week break will soon be over and crappy college life will resume. God bless the Philippines. And please, please may the dengue fever come to an end! It has to end. It’s adding trouble to everyone and to my brother.
