THE OFFICE

I still cut Physics class even if CD told me otherwise. I went to the office with my cousins, Michelle and Ralph, and my little brother, Franco--who is out now. He's buying me a present! I didn't ask for one. He asked me last night, "Achi, what do you want for your birthday?". I said, "a hug". I was serious. Zia went home late last night and she barged into the room and said, "Achi, OH... MY... GOD... Okay, I have a surprise for you. I'm not supposed to show this to you, but I'm really excited!". She and my other cousins made a video for me. I will post it on the 25th. They're all so sweet and waaaay too excited for my birthday. I, on the other hand, am OKAY with it. I mean, HELLO, I am turning 20 and I'm nearing THE mid-life crisis stage (exaggerated a bit there), and have done nothing special for the world to remember! Maybe I should plant trees, help the poor, convince the president to admit her wrong doings about the ZTE scandal (who knows, I might be the next Lozada), and perform genocide to all the jolog-sTiCkY-CaPs-hello-poh-muzta-na-poh-u people. Hay, ang dami! But I think the last one would be more helpful, practical, and SPECIAL for the world to remember me by. All Hail MEEE! My friends would love me more, I know. Jolog season is OUT.

Where was I? (that's what you get for having Mr. Zialcita as your professor, you tend to digress a whole lot, but the digression is far more important than the main topic, believe me). So, where was I? Okay, I'm gonna stop. So, we were in the office, Kong-kong (my Lolo) wasn't there, so I sat on his chair. Wala eh, feeling Bossing. Everyone seems to be excited for my birthday and all my titas asked me what my plans are for the very special day. Blech. Wala akong plans.

Tita Dory: So, Trizia, what are your plans for Friday? Dinner tayo!
Me: No plans!
Tita Dory: Ah, 'coz your going to Baguio pala with your friends, noh?
Me: End of May pa, 'coz of the paint job.
Tita: Ah, so you're going out with your friends nalang?
Me: No rin.
BY THIS TIME, I SAT ON THE CHAIR AND PRETENDED THAT I WAS THE CEO OF THIS MULTI-NATIONAL CORPORATION (WOAH).
Tita Dory: Ah, you have a date?
Me: Date? No!!! Wala.
Tita Donna: You have a boyfriend?
Me: No. I'm suplada eh.
Franco: Yes, tita, she is. Mahirap kausapin yan eh.

MARAMING SALAMAT PO.

So, I've no plans. The white flag was finally waved, defeated, my mom surrendered! Ha ha. No to war, at least for now. So, the Lim household is at peace. Or ceasefire. She cried when she watched the video that Zia made for me. I cried when I watched it last night.

Ama (my Lola) is home from Egypt. I will talk about her homecoming tomorrow! It's very interesting, this Egypt trip.

OKAY. This is too long for an entry.

Cheerios.
