the world outside

I dunno if I should post this but, I juz want it out of my mind. I wanna share it though and I hope you'll learn somtin’ from this. hehehee...

I woke up exactly 12 pm in the afternoon. I saw my mom getting ready for her appointment this afternoon. She asked me if I’m still going to my friends house for she's hoping I could go with her. Well, I wanted to go with her but I told her that going to my friend’s house is kinda important and it's for our group project. She then juz nodded and took off.

I left past 1:00 and was running for I am So0o0o late. I rode a jeep going "tay-tay" and then waited for the jeep to arrive to Village East - where my friend lives. The radio was switched to a certain channel and the song was "I write sins not tragedies" by panic at the disco. It reminded me of a certain happening and a certain anime (oh yeh, did I mention that I’m an anime addict?-Lolz).

My mind was so caught up by the song that I forgot to check if I’m in village east already. When the song ended, my mind was still swirling around my head and when I realized that I was the only one left in the jeep, I looked outside. I then realized that I’m lost and also stupid-lol.

I asked the driver the location and he said that we're already in "tay-tay". I should’ve screamed but I’m not that kind of person. I can tell that the driver knows that I’m lost but I was too freaked out to let him help me (well that's stupid).

I stopped by a gas station and started walking where I think is the right direction back home. I don't have my cell and the only thing that's with me is 100 pesos and a pencil-I really dunno why I have that pencil.

I continued my journey back home. I was too shy and freaked out to ask the right way. Then I saw a church – Iglesia Ni Cristo. I then decided to ask there for some help. I juz felt that they could be trusted and they could help me. The guard told me the direction but juz a few minutes passed and I already forgot the way.

I walked back to the church but then a dog chased me that I couldn’t get near the church. Once again, I got lost. The dog chased me until a man gave the dog a biscuit (I didn’t know that dogs eat those and this reminds me of something…) then I continued running without saying my thanks to that man. (hahaha- that’s embarrassing! Though it really reminds me of something…lol)

Yep, I’m lost again. I guess this what happens to people who juz stays at home and sleep. I continued walking and followed my instincts. A car parked in front of me, and then a cheery face showed up. I can tell she was surprised to see me because of her reaction. She got out of the car and gave me a “long time no see” embrace. I really can’t remember her but I think she remembers me so I juz nodded to everything she says pretending I do. She asked me what I was doing, and I juz said, “juz wandering around, taking a walk and feeling the warmth of the sun”.

I guess she figured out that I was lying and found out that I was lost. She gave me a ride home. I asked her how, and she said that she saw me walking back and forth in front of the church, saw me ask the guard, and saw me being chased by a dog. We then burst out laughing and then I remembered who she was. She was my childhood friend and church mate. She moved in tay-tay 8 years ago. We used to have those laughs when we were little so I remembered. It was her brother who gave those biscuits and her father was the one who decided to give me a lift home.

I never thought I’d saw her in that place and she’ll help me. Our fathers used to be friends but they both got busy and that friendship got wasted. When they gave me a lift they met again and juz like we did, they burst out laughing, remembering their own embarrassing moments (or maybe they’re laughing at me..ngrr…).

As I got home, I said to myself, “I’m never leaving home again!”
