What?! SSS lang?!?!

A funny but understandably innocent situation occured to be last Saturday that truly made me think a lot.... as in A LOT..

I was approaching the elevator on our 14th floor office at Landco when suddenly a bunch of people from the other office was also on their way.. since the building was considered as a 'smart building' hehe.. smart daw coz there aren't any buttons inside the elevator.. what you do is you press the desired floor you'd like to go to on the outside then the elevator screen shows you which door you are assigned, which then would take you to your desired floor.. hayy haba!

Anyways Elevator C is the dreaded door since it's always stuck, rarely is running properly plus there are fears of being stranded because of it's MOODS hehehe.. as we call it.

Now to make the long story short.. we were assigned to elevator C and one could hear shrieks and ayyy's of some people knowing we would be using the dreaded elevator.. plus there were qualms of death! hehee.. remarks of "yoko pa mamatay!!!" "I'm too young to diee!!!" hehhee...

But what shocked me to death was the comment made inside the elevator...

someone said... (translated into taglish) "Sus! why worry?! as long as may SSS na tayo, ok na yan lahat!"

I was like.. FROZEN.. I stared at the guy and was soo shocked that no one said anything in retoration but even affirmed!!!!

Oh come on! SSS?!?! the company on the average as of the moment gives 2,000 pesos to the elderly as their benefit for the long years before! so imagine how much we would get in the near future?!?!?! YEAH it does help a little .. but hey?!?! would we allow ourselves that little in the future after working our butts off?!?!?!

Oh MY GOSH!... amidst the UNIVERSITY degrees coming about with educational backgrounds of Flying colours.. I must say.. so many are STILL ILLITERATE!

hmm.. I don't blame them... but what bugs me is the thought that these Illiterates act as if they know everything and won't even bother to listen to those like us (me) who try to educate them as what I do in my company.

Sheeze... if they only knew

... hay for those who didn't get a thing on why I was so shocked.. for goodness sakes! ask me why before it's too late.

Pano na iyong walang SSS? TY na lang? Saka...para namang ang laki ng makukuha natin sa SSS if may nangyaring masama. Grabe naman yan...bakit di ipaayos ng management yan? If that would be the case...maghahagdanan na lang ako. =)

You Are a Glazed Donut Okay, you know that you're plain - and you're cool with that. You prefer not to let anything distract from your sweetness. Your appeal is understated yet universal. Everyone dig you. And in a pinch, you'll probably get eaten. What Donut Are You?

It's up to my wife....

"It's up to my wife.." A student told me today when I asked them to present in class their future plans. I honestly was taken aback by his response. He wasn't the type of who would let someone decide for him. But there he was telling me this. Somehow, I wasn't sure that his declaration was for real. When I asked him if the decision to get married was his, he simply said, "I don't have a choice." I wonder. If I were the fiance and I heard all these, how would it feel like? On the other hand, will men really dodge the bullets of marriage if they could? Why so? Is marriage only for the weak? I hope not.
Today I realize he's gone and I can't do anything about it. Yeah, yeah, yeah I know what people might think as of the moment, majority would say "what?! you're still at it after months?" "tanga tanga mo naman.. tagal mong ma-over!" "It's your fault, iniisip mo kasi always" blah blah blah... but hey, I did not wish for this to happen, neither did I intend for it to linger on for a long time. It is not easy to find a love, but it's more difficult to lose a love. All day today, I was thinking of WHY?!.. went to a Harry Potter movie with my family but thoughts kept coming in my mind.. sa car pa lang I was blaming myself and even my brothers for what was happening to me (It's my fault I am far, it's my brother's fault kung di lang sana nila pinagpalit mga gf nila!, it's my grandfather's fault if he hadn't cheated!).. I'm so horrid, blaming others for the things that are happening to me. But then, I realized how go...
