Rent and Condominiums

rent-and-condominiums

Apartment B might give up the place. They’re 5K behind May’s rent and they haven’t paid June’s. It’s already July and Mama’s predicting that they might not stay any longer soon. If they do leave, 1/3 of the house income will be cut and that will be a serious difference especially with the current trend of prices of commodities and other stuff. What’s funny is we haven’t increased the rent in like 10 years and they’re having troubles paying that amount.

But then, the rent in different places just keep going up. A lot of contact centers and offices are moving out or cutting down floor area because of the increasing rent. At the Philam Life alone, according to Vani, their rent will double. My company will also be moving out of our floor and will move to Glorietta (Or was it Greenbelt?) 5 once it’s finished. Loraine’s client gave up a half floor on the PBCom Tower because of the rent as well.

Now, if Apartment B gives up their space, it will be really hard to find a new tenant. The place is s run down and it will be unlivable for normal people since A and C are night clubs. The rent for our apartments are dirt cheap considering they’re on a main road and near an intersection…

I’ve been thinking about redoing the whole place–the apartments and the house itself–that is, IF ever I did have the money. The house is also very run down. The walls are termite-eaten and the roof is so rusted that when it rains, it’s also raining inside the house. Water seeps in the walls. Worst of all, what I hate the most, it floods inside the house, in my room.

I want to tear down the whole place and build a condominium. Maybe a 5 to 8 storey one will do. The floor area is large enough. And when it’s done, we could have a better chance at renting space out. Maybe one floor could be a dormitory. Two or three floors could be offices. I’d like the top floor or a penthouse for myself. We could probably do this through mortgage lenders … Borrow some money for a major reconstruction. A~ah… I do wish I had the money for that. I really hate this place.

Another problem though, even if I had the money to have this place torn down, where will the people live? Not like everyone will agree as well. It’s my grandfather’s house (he’s dead) and his wife is still alive. All their children are still alive. I doubt they’d agree to it. And if they did, they’d all be fighting over shares of the house income.

*sigh*

I do hate this family as well.

I need to work hard so I can move out to an elevated place where it doesn’t flood. Where I don’t have to hide food from my cousins or brother (because I hate them). Because I hate this place.

I just signed up for ZooToo. It’s a Pet Social Network. Basically, making acquaintances and/or friends over a social network with pets as the main concern. Here you can learn more about pets, or share your knowledge about pets, or just plainly meet pet-lovers. You can ask questions like about grooming, and so on. But that’s not all it is for.

It’s an online community geared towards pet-owners helping pets! — Yes, you can help other pets by joining ZooToo. ZooToo has different promotions and causes to help pet shelters and rescue groups around the States. They will donate up to US$1,000,000 every year to a deserving and community-supported shelter.

How’s that? Not only will you be helping your own pet, but you’ll also be helping other pets and future pets!

Now, what this site lacks is international support. Laugh It would be nice if I’ll also be helping the would-be pets in my country. Might as well start somewhere, right? And I do want to take better care of Taba.

Hana Yori Dango Anime

hana-yori-dango-anime

I just finished watching the anime version of Hana Yori Dango and although the Japanese and the Taiwanese (Meteor Garden) versions were also nice, I liked the anime too. The story is the same, but the ending and the last parts were somewhat different.

For the anime, Shigeru plotted so that Tsukasa and Tsukushi could be together and the evil mother finally let them be in the last episode.
In the Japanese drama, Shigeru left them alone so that they could be together and what was left was just the evil mother. And more events after that.
In the Taiwanese version … For the life of me, I can’t remember it anymore, but they had a lot of troubles with the mother first before they were able to get together.

I liked the Anime ending best although Tsukushi was a lot more indecisive. In the drama, Tsukushi was kind of stronger. In the Taiwanese version… UUGGHhh I need to rewatch it but I kind of remember Tsukushi (San Chai…not sure of spelling) also being stronger but more of a crybaby.

Tsukasa’s mom was scheming in all versions, although not as much in the anime version. But either way, you might have wanted her to just stay in New York where she belongs.

Hmmm… I think it would be nice to go on some New York City travel? What’s to see in New York anyway? Aside from the Statue of Liberty?

Aaaahhhh I want to go somewhere =_=;;

Watching Hana Yori Dango kind of made me envious of rich people. lol.
