mosquito bites and mustached cockroaches.

cockroaches, by far, are the most disgusting insects like, ever.
i`ve had a few cockroach encounters since i stayed here at makati. my titas told me it was because of the sewer right in front of this apartment, along with the overflowing, rusty garbage bin with occasional scattered animal defacation and soiled diapers -- the sight makes my skin crawl.
..so that pretty much explains why every night [since i sleep around 3 or 4am] whilst i watch tv, i have near-death experiences with my seemingly real heart-attacks when cockroaches magically dart out of nowhere. gahd, that gives me such a scare. lalo pa`t cockroaches here effing fly and have long, scaly mustaches. ICK x 100000. i don`t usually see cockroaches in riyadh. well..i do, except that`s only when i go over to deejay`s or jem`s building or some icky area in batha. so it was a surprise for me when i saw how sosyal cockroaches here were compared to those in riyadh, which didn`t have any antennae.
and if there`s one more thing i hate other than cockroaches, that would be mosquitoes. i had zero to no mosquito bites when i was in riyadh. i didn`t have them either when i was in paranaque. but when i stayed over @ my cousins` place and here at makati, my flawless [ahaha, rofl] legs now function as something more than for walking, i can play connect-the-dots on them while passing time, thanks to my numerous peklats. [scars] it pays to live in a fucking tropical country. argh. and what more, i don`t have any off! lotion here so my only option is to have the electric fan face me in the lightest possible setting just to keep those shitty bugs off
anyways, complaints aside, my tito jun`s family will be arriving thursday instead of tomorrow. they were delayed because sesa got her first menstrual period. she`s like, 11. so it`s about time, innit? according to tito jun, she was crying and stuff. on any day, i would be kicking and screaming right now but i`m trying my best to be considerate anyhow.
i visited enchanted kingdom`s website and learned that ticket prices are 500php on a regular day and on holidays/weekends, it`s 600php. the carousel special is 150php. seph and don`s tip: if you`re on a tight budget, get the carousel special and wear long sleeves. [rotflol] the junior day pass is 350php. so i`ll be paying 1,700php instead of 2000. since jules and jamjam will be having the JDP. whew. there would be a shuttle service departing for EK @ 2:30pm @ the ayala center terminal and it`s 150php/person. heehee, i really did my homework. although, i did hear that food there would be a bit pricey so i`m freaking worrying how much i`ll be spending for that. and i`m also worrying if there`d be an entrance fee and shit. oh god.
later kiddies.

pesto-stained teeth

i had pesto for lunch today.
i smile at the mirror and the tiny gaps in between my teeth have been filled in with green shit.
whatever.

i have the hardest time trying to sleep nowadays. i used to sleep well when i was in paranaque. but ever since i temporarily moved here to makati [bcz my tito`s family is at naga. crud.] i`ve been waiting for the sun to rise before dozing to lala land. *mr. monching told me it was jet lag. i think it`s tita tisay`s shitty bed at fault.

wednesday morning is when tito jun`s family arrives and i`m more than excited. i seriously fantasize about them arriving before i try in my pursuits of having a restful sleep. i hate little kids but ses, jamjam and julieanne make me feel like mature. [because i`m not] i`ve never been an ate-figure in my entire life, so who knew it would feel great being one? anyways..i`ve got so much in plan once tito jun`s family arrives. [since i`ve been denied to go to the mall and let be without adult supervision repeatedly. *i swear, being caught seen with any of my titas is an unstylish death* ] on the 14th is dang`s birthday. and i wouldn`t want to miss it for the world. =] and after next week, friday at the most, is when i go to enchanted kingdom with the kids, tito jun, iyah & her baboy, jem and well..people from ris. i`m head-over-heels excited. it would`ve been okay if i were with my cousins..but as unfortunate as iam, misha, ate honey and kuya mcneil are mahihiluhin, jonat, jerrick and jake are asthmatic, and ate jamie is married. so where do i fit in? nowhere.

so. iam obliged to treat my three little cousins [i have to. tito`s unemployed and i don`t want to give him a reason to put a dent in his pocket.] and treat iyah and jem to food. [kapos sila sa budget eh.] it`s reasonable enough, since the two bitches will be commuting going to bf. gahd, i just wish all this excitement pays off in the end. and i hope i make the most out of this damned vacation because in a few weeks` time, i`ll be flying back to riyadh and on june 7th, i head to new york for about two weeks. which means i have a handful of time to shop for the bilin`s, pasalubongs and personal items. how haggarding.

mother`s day is coming up and i haven`t emailed mommy yet. [after my tyrade over the last phone call, god knows how i`d do it] speaking of which, i dread what ate might sermon me when we do get the chance to talk. *shudders*


later much, i`ll be watching stepford wives.
*mr. monching is tita linda`s reflexology guru.

frustration

iam on vacation.
but really. if i wanted to go to the mall on a regular basis, i would`ve stayed put my ass in riyadh. i`ve been the denied the privilage to go to enchanted kingdom with my friends tomorrow, which would also mean missing reuniting with my ex-mafia clan consisting of jeff, don & gabo. [which is pretty much non-existent now] i feel bitter about it, no doubt. i`m a kid! and kids dream of cotton-candy and amusement parks and overly-dressed clowns and what not. i argued with mom over the phone suggesting post-dramacore. and although i`ve been persistent enough, i wound up yelling and hanging up on her.
that`s just sucky, isn`t it?
so as of two hours ago, i have started cursing my entire damned family tree for blessing me with such a lovely mother. the sort of lovely you`d so love to whack a mallet in the head with.
but this is momentary anger, isn`t it? no it isn`t anger. it`s my-blood-is-curdling anger.
i`m just wishing tito jun would get here earlier so i wouldn`t resort to slitting my pancreas open with a swiss knife.
..hey. that`s possible! emo kids do it alot. which is the most stylish thing ever.
note how sarcastic i phrased my last line.
