First Semester Booboos

9:03 PM

Another day is about to end, another long tiring day.
I got soaked in the rain today and not just soak but bloody soaked that I was still dripping wet when I entered Greenhills Mall. The saleslady there didn't even took pity on me when I tried to buy the towel for 60 pesos 10 pesos less than the original price of 70. It's just that I don't have enough money that time.

I wanted to feel pity for myself as I walk under the rain. My shirt slowly becoming damp and my hair turning itself into all the hideousness it could get. I am so unlucky today.

Friday thoughts

7:42pm - Today is the 4th of July, the American Independence. But far from the feeling of emancipation and actually the opposite of it, I am back here in the arms of my poor country. I feel so poor again. I didn't see this coming. When I was in Korea, everything was perfect like I can do anything. Now that I am in the Philippines, everywhere I look is a picture of poverty and I feel bad because I am again part of this horrible picture painted by a deteriorating culture.
