You're a gangbanger! Gangbanger! Gangbanger!

What happened to my two-week summer vacation?

Yeah yeah... I know, I'm one of the very few people who are wishing that classes start soon. It's so boring here in the house. There's nothing to do but surf the internet all day long, and I'm kind of getting tired of it.

You know what, scratch that. I'm not getting tired of the internet at all.

But I just really really reaaally want something else to do! Just sitting here in front of the pc for an entire day is doing me no good. I'm just here, gaining weight. No, wait... I can't gain weight... I haven't been eating properly. Ooooh... I just realized that the only thing I ate yesterday was a pack of Tomi, an order of large fries, a sarsi float, and a little bit of the Sinigang na Baboy which we had for dinner. And glasses of orange-manga juice and lemonade.

Who am I kidding? I'm going to gain weight just by eating from Mcdo!!! Not that I care... much.

I really need to get out of the house, and I was reaaally wishing for that. So last Tuesday, I went to school. Originally it was to have my ID validated, and for Paolo's load revision (Or is it mine? But what does it matter... Nothing happened anyway.). But, like I said, nothing came out of it. We couldn't decide on who was having a load revision, and when we finally decided that it was to be me, I backed out.

Of course, we ended up in Gateway. Oooooh, big surprise. My mom got mad at me when I got home when she learned I didn't accomplish anything for that day.

The next day was Cars day, so it was okay. I had to make up an excuse to get out, of course. Hahaha! Bad.

Yesterday... Yesterday Paolo and I were supposed to go back to school for the load revision thing, but then my mom woke me up at 6 in the morning, before they and my siblings went off to Makati for work and school, to tell me that I had to go to Makati that day too. It was to have my compulsary summer fee reimbursed in Prudential.

Waaaaah?! I didn't want to go out there! I wanted it somewhere fun! Not that going to school to have load revisions is fun. Well, not that going to school isn't fun at all, but at least I would be with a blockmate, right? In Makati, I would have to go to a boring building in Gamboa St., Legaspi City, go to the third floor, sit there waiting for my number to be called, fill out some papers, talk to the girl/guy who calls my number, explain everything and yadda yadda yadda.

And then when I got to Makati, I learned that my mom had a meeting, so she couldn't give me the authorization letter I needed. I had to wait. WAIT is PAIN.

Well, not this wait. I remembered that Powerbooks was only a walking distance away (and so was Landmark, Glorietta, SM, Greenbelt...) so I went there to read some manga. The Monday a week ago, they had volume 4 and volume 7 of Wallflower. As in the one that has been taken out of the plastic so that we could read them. When I got there yesterday, there was only volume 1!!! And I've already read volume 1! I've read volumes 1-6, except volume 4 which they didn't have at that time, and now the ones I needed to read were gone!

But I re-read it, anyhow. It was fuuuun! There was this part where Noi and Kyohei were having an argument and Noi started to shout "You are a gangbanger! Gangbanger! Gangbanger!" I just had to take a picture of that. It's now the avatar I'm using for YM.:P

After a bit, my mom called to tell me that she was done and that I should head back to her office. I grudgingly put the book down and walked back to her office UNDER THE SCORCHING SUN. After I meeting up with her and getting the letter, I walked some more, still under the heat of the sun, without my umbrella which I seem to have left somewhere, passing through Greenbelt 4, Greenbelt 3, and Greenbelt 1, until finally I got to Gamboa st. Went up the building, waited for my name, and then I was told that I NEEDED TO COME BACK THE NEXT DAY TO GET THE CHECK.

Meaning I need to go back TODAY. I don't want to go TODAY! Today is the last day of weekday vacation, and I was planning on bumming around the house from 6 am to 10 pm! Yes, I wake up early even during vacations to maximize the little time I have.

Haaaaay... But I don't have much of a choice. I'll leave the house at 3, fetch my siblings from school, have the driver park at Landmark, and then head to the place.

Darn it.
