MMMiii!

Seven years ago, I graduated from high school. April 4, 2001. I didn’t really graduate with honors, though I did get an award. It was a pretty ordinary day. It was hot, and we had food afterwards. I can still remember coming home that day to find our apartment locked for non-payment that afternoon. My mom begged them not to do it yet because it was my graduation day. I still had to attend the graduation ball. Not that it was special too.

I’m going to graduate from college soon… after seven years of sticking with it. I had wanted to give up several times.

So… This will be the last time I’m going to celebrate my high school graduation anniversary. I’ll be graduating from The University, from college. And next year, I’ll be celebrating that instead of my hs grad.

I should set up a countdown timer. I’m excited and I’m not excited at the same time.

Why?

I’ve never really won anything this big. There was once I played bingo and won like P800, but I was just playing my mother’s cards, so technically, it’s still hers. Another time, I bet on the lotto, and got P20 back.

I never really win anything in lotteries or whatever. Anything big, anyway. I won in a Jollibee raffle for free concert tickets for the last episode of a drama.

Last Wednesday, coming home from work, I got an email saying I won $100 just for being chosen. And it had links for me to click on. And I believed it immediately. But after seeing the date, I thought, … Could it be an April Fool’s Joke?

So… how many months have I been working? At work, I have to wear business casual most of the time (except for weekends), and sure I’ve got some slacks. I’ve got one really nice one, one so so, and another one… well… another one which will have to do most of the time.

I wear the three of them in constant rotation. Sometimes just one of them for the whole week when I need to (My shift is Saturday to Wednesday, so I only wear slacks thrice a week… for this month, that is. and last month).

And well… I guess it doesn’t really matter much since it’s just black, but sometimes I wish I had more than one good slacks. I brought this up with my mother and sure enough, she offered me some classy maternity jeans. I know I’m really big and all… *sigh*

BUT ANYWAY… I’m not really into clothes or fashion or what not. I hardly care about how I look. Heck, sometimes a whole week or two passes before I even comb my nice, long, straight black hair which doesn’t tangle much (I mean, comb with a comb. My fingers do the job most of the time, but that’s not really combing, is it?)

I think I’ll go out and get a new pair of slacks tomorrow. *sigh* I hope I Could find a cheap one. Really. It really depresses me sometimes when I go and buy clothes, and they just don’t fit. I know I should diet or something… so that buying clothes won’t depress me anymore. But…

There are good things in life that are just hard to give up. Like noodles.
