House Boy--Hakuna Matata FAIL.

I thought I was going to have the "break-slash-vacation" of the year. It's our sem break now, and I have been a HOUSE BOY during those weeks.

Okay, so you must understand that my parents are ALWAYS busy with their work, it always seemed that they're more devoted to it than to any other thing in the world. Well, i'm obviously complaining here.

I haven't seen my family for like, one whole semester. I kinda missed 'em, you know. Well, not JUST them, but also the state of NOT doing anything at all--no homework, no chores, no quizzes or exams to review for, but just staying in the house, in your room, worrying about what movie or tv series you would like to watch in your laptop.

You get what I mean, it's like a hakuna matata life. ( HAHA! I think I used the wrong term)

Well, this sem break wasn't really what I expected it to be like. After my family's trip from Roxas City (which I wasn't a part with), I went back to my hometown--Cavite, which was about an 8 hour trip from my boarding house in Baguio. As I rode the bus that night, I was imagining of how worry-free my vacation in Cavite would be. I was excited to eat my favorite food, sinigang, cooked by the hands of my mother, I was relieved thinking how our house help (if thats what you call those who help with the house chores and stuff, i dont want to call em maids cuz thats mean? HAHA) would wash all my laundry that i brought im my suitcase. I thought of being like the prince of the house. hahaha!

Okay, just as i said, it didnt come out the way i wanted it to be.
1. our house help (you know the term :D ) was ALSO having her vacation
2. my mom as I have said, WAS TOOOOOOOOOOOO devoted to her job. she should marry it.
3. the house, AND my room was a mess,
4. the airconditioning units wont work
5. i forgot that the house has NO WiFi.


Whew. Because our ate (the house help. HAHA i cant think of the better term eh. sorry) wasnt at home, I WAS THE ONE WHO WASHED ALLL MY LAUNDRY. and because my mom, was too busy, (and I feel sorry for her because she has UTI-Urinary Track Infection), I was the one who cooked ALL the meals of the day. Including the rice. HAHA. just so you know, I dont know HOW to cook. I just learned how after I watched the How to cook videos on YouTube. I cooked sinigang, adobo, tinola, and roast pork. HAHA, proud of myself. LOL

I had to fix my room which my sister messed up.
I had to bear with the heat.
I had to plug my laptop just beside the internet modem thingie just so i could go online.
I had to wait for like 16 hours just to download "Six Feet Under Season 2" on my laptop.

while my sisters went to school, and my parents at work, I was left with the dirty dishes used from breakfast, lunch, and even dinner. EWW. washing dishes was the worst house chore ever.
alone at home, I was left to clean the house, bla bla. and so on...


SERIOUSLY. this has gone toooo far beyond what I have expected. I'm now a HOUSE BOY. the house maid. the Male-kind-of-nanny or something. the yaya.

I thought I would be the house bum. which again didnt happen. HAHA.

I wish school's back again. Let's go back to Baguio.
I think life is much bettah theah. LOL

SIGH.SIGH SIGH.
