Hmm...I am seriously considering becoming a devout Christian. My phone got wet yesterday, and I had said that if it works again today, I will believe in God. Yeah, I'm a conditional faithsort of person. Anyway, this morning, I reassembled my phone (just the covers, the battery and the sim card. Hahah. I'm no engineer) and pushed the power button.
A two-second eternity began.

It worked.

Hmph.

I am seriously going to take care of my phone. If I am going to leave it anywhere in the outdoors, I am going to put it in a ziploc plastic, I don't care if it sweats. It's better than it getting soaked. I promise to be paranoid about my phone and keep it close to me at all times, because my father said that if I lose this phone, I'm not allowed to get another one. Ever.

This is currently my third phone. My first cellphone lasted for a year with me, before I forgot all about it and left it on a table in Subic. Which I only remembered at night. Of course, it wasn't there anymore in the morning.
My second phone got stolen, EXACTLY a month after I got it. In greenbelt. Before the stores even opened. It was in my jacket pocket. And..then..it wasn't.
This is my third phone, and it got sira a week after I bought it from my brother.
I hope if ever I get a new one, it'll last longer than a day.
Strange.

Well, am off. Going to the birthday lunch of my lola, who isn't really my lola but more like the sister of my deceased lolo. Hmph. We call her Ninang, because she doesn't like being thought of as old. She doesn't LOOK it anyway, so it's okay. (NAKS!! Hahahah!)
Ninang is married to the Marquis of Headfort. Meaning her husband is English nobility. Hah. But he lives here in the Philippines.
He's sort of kawawa, cos he has all sorts of sicknesses, and you can hardly understand him because he speaks in a heavy accent, plus he mumbles.

Am going to play later at the U.P. Sunken Garden. Might see my former schoolmate because her sister is going to bring her, and we could play together. Hi Marquis Misa. Hahah.
***
Shocks. Hmph.
When is this going to stop?
Uhm...probably never.
Can't forget.
***
Uhm..well...that last thing didn't really work. Can't help it, I still like the guy. Hahah, I guess it's not that easy.
