Wintertsuki brought us some treats. Nuts, lots of them, her dad is in the country and brought home sacks of almonds, so she brought some to the office and we've been nibbling them for the past week now. She also gave me a bar of chocolate because she can't eat it. Lucky ~ .
I went to my parent's house during the weekends, it's a requirement if I want to stay in my apartment longer. But I might stay in my apartment for good, because my Dad decided that he would tend to our fields in Masbate permanently. This means, no one will pick me up or drive me around the metro, and living in Makati seems more feasible now. We might sell the family van as well because no one knows how to drive. I asked if i can have it instead, Mom said it's too big for me so if my dad agrees , they would sell the van and buy a car then I will drive it. Lucky ~ .
Sunday, my last day at the house, I was watching Dukes of Hazzard, when the power went out. I went out of my room to help my grandma find the matches and candles. Then I sat on the sofa and did nothing for a few minutes. The silence was deafening if you block out the noise of the crikets. I tried to take a nap but it was darn to hot. I went back to my room hoping that my bed would be a lot colder than the sofa, it wasn't. >.< . I looked at the clock and it was only 7:30 in the evening. The black out was driving nuts, and I wanted t pack my bags and leave for my apartment right then and there. However, worry is keeping me from leaving the house. I can't leave my grandma home alone god knows what will happen if I left her with the candles. Then the thought of burglars getting into our house as well. Last night someone threw a rock at our roof so that got me so worried. So i chucked the idea of leaving early out the window and willed myself to sleep. I drifted in and out because of the heat, the third time I woke up it was 3:30 AM, I couldn't go back to sleep so I repared to go to work.
I really hate power outages, so whenever there was one, I always come to the office and stay there until the power is restored. I'd rather endure working than staying at the house w/ no electricity and doing nothing.
