I'm not the type who usually complains about having a lot of things to be done. In fact, having deadlines have made it easier for me to deal with them lighter than usual. But there's something different with how things have been running on lately, and they have faintly shifted my views. Not that exceptional, but unusual enough to have me baffled and thinking about a lot.
Exactly a week ago, my mother and I have been witnesses to what we people might regard as a heinous crime. From the top view, a man did seem to be just prancing up and about in front of another one of his kind with a jagged rock and a flat timber in hand. But as the moon had reallocated its beam to unearth the lingering secrets of the night, it hit me. Nagpapatayan na pala yung dalawang lalaki sa ibaba.
Right then and there, it all ended not well enough. One was killed. There were a lot of people around when the entire incident leaked out and nobody even paid enough attention to it. They were just there, standing, screaming and gasping at the whole of it. Gods, they were SO NEAR. As shamefully as I could ever put it, they could have done something, but they apparently chose not to.
I guess it was just about time for the man killed to meet his sunshine someplace else. And if ever he's not to land into that sunshiny place... well, he'll just have to wait and see.
Junk as it may seem, but life has never been stable enough for some. Nobody has ever been so sure of the end. While other people think of themselves as born lucky, I consider myself lucky to have even been born. I was luckily given life, a life not meant to be wasted into gratifying myself to the earthly pleasures of our time. I was born to do certain tasks, to make use of the time I have well. But there's just this thing. Procrastinating has been my pedigree ever since and to it, I couldn't agree more.
But by the gods. Going through that man's death over the days has moved me so much that I couldn't wait to make the rest of my tomorrows pretty well. I have to make a move and fast. I have to think that I haven't got much time, and I might as well just make the quality of all my work tops. I don’t mind having a lot of things to be done. What matters is that I MUST do them all, let them be at their best while I still own my time, and everything will all end well.
The engines of demise are fickle. Sit down and think.

The same thing goes for my grandfather who's currently having health problems of some disturbing sort. The resolve that my family has got for this is for him to have an operation right away.
Please let him be okay. I wouldn't want him to go to that sunshiny place with the rest of his forefathers. Not just yet.

Mukhang magiging okay na itong linggong ito. Tip of the iceberg pa lang yung past weeks! Nakakahiya naman sa iba diyan, baka napapagod ko na sila sa kakaisip na ang bobo-bobo ko at hindi ako deserving sa kung ano man ang meron ako ngayon. If that's the way they perceive the light then by the gods, so be it!
I don't give a damn, hanibam. Babatuhan ko na lang kayo isang matamis at makapangakit-langgam na ngiti!

And besides. Who's the student leader, anyway? Mukha nyo! You have no choice but to comply your butts out!
