A few days ago, i felt uncomfortable reclining on my office chair. The burning sensation has been superseded by the sporadic itching. I dismissed the annoying itchiness to be nothing life threatening, so i continue with my routine.
So yesterday, as I step my first step towards the realization/actualization of my DREAM, of what I've always wanted to be; something happened. The Manila super summer humid heat had me sweating sticky tropical sweat. This i think made the itching unbearable. I was tapping at my back like a wild monkey looking for lice, LOL. And to my horror, the place where the itching occurs has been replaced by bumps forming clusters. Ugly thoughts raised through my mind like, 'may ginalaw ba kami sa ilog, at pinarusahan ako ng diwata ng pagsanjan?', 'Skin disease?','Parasites eating my skin?','Naagnas na ba ako?'. Hahahha .. But of course, there was no thought of dying, i know, I'm not dying, skin molting is really superficial. Natakot lang ako dun sa pulutong ng pantal. Hahaha... Imagine the shock and disgust in my face when i got the chance to view it in a mirror... Parang na- aagnas nga! hahahhaa....
I turned 18 yesterday! LOL. My guess was wrong that I'll turn grumpier. QLC did not impinge its presence, instead I felt at ease and serene. Maybe because lately, I've loosen up on myself. I've tried CONFORMITY (I'll expound on this some other time). Maybe because I've accomplished previously must-do-things-before-i-die. Whatever it is that's keeping QLC at bay is a welcome respite.
I've cooked pancit canton ala Ding Hao (not bad for a first try, next time I'll add more sauce... :D ). Fried chicken, and ice cream. My sister gave me Mernel's cake. And we devour the food noisily happy!
Next year, I'll be 18 again. :D
