Home Alone

Posted on March 31, 2010 under Rants

My parents are in New York for a week, so I’m here alone in the house with my six-year old sister, the two maids and my aunt and grandma, who promised to watch over us throughout the week. You’d think that having minimal supervision for a week would be fun, but honestly, it isn’t. I think the most I’ve had so fear is when I had dinner with friends and went home at 9 PM, something that my parents wouldn’t have allowed on a typical case.

One reason as to why I’m probably not having fun is because it’s Holy Week. Most people would go out of town, out of country, whatever, and spend their week there rather than be stuck at home and bored to death (as I). So while the rest are probably enjoying the sun, having some barbeque by the pool, I’m here at home playing Sims for half the day, and then browsing the web for the remaining half.

Another reason is that my friends and I live far apart, the nearest to me being around a 15-minute drive away. My mom isn’t here to drive me to places and some of the family drivers I usually ask to bring me places are busy as well. So while other people are going on roadtrips and having the time of their lives, I’m here at home watching a couple of TV shows I’ve downloaded.

So what am I getting into? Nothing really, I just needed to rant about the shitty week ahead.

Strict Parents

Posted on January 24, 2010 under Rants

I really hate how my parents can be so strict sometimes. There are times where I understand their being strict. I get the picture that yes, they are just thinking about my safety. Whenever we have after-school cheering practices, it usually ends at 8, and I usually do not go since I have to be home by 7:30. Traffic begins to go bad at around 6 so it’s either I go and leave at 6 or don’t go at all. And, what can an hour of practice do? Stretching, jumps and stunts? But what about the routine, which is basically the most important one of all? So I ditch those after-school practices and just catch up on the weekends (which I successfully do :P ).

Now, that scenario I understand. I get their point that it’s dangerous for me, a student, to still be out at a late hour. However, there are just times when it goes berserk. After a competition, I was staying at my friend’s house. It was around 7 that we got home and we ate a little dinner, and I fell asleep on her bed. I woke up at around 8:30 with my mom on the phone yelling at me to go home. It was already late and my mom’s friend said that I could just sleep over since it wouldn’t be safe to take the public transportation alone at such time. I asked my mom if I could sleep over and she said no. :| What the fuck happened to being home by 7:30 because it’s unsafe for me to be out later than that?!

I know this post is all over the place, but I just had to rant it out.

I Rarely Feel Regret, But I Now Am

Posted on August 17, 2009 under Rants

And to make things worse, it’s for such a shallow reason. Last year, I answered back to a teacher, and was placed on probation because of it. So what? I didn’t feel any remorse. Not one bit.

But today, I feel regret for something I shouldn’t even feel it for. I feel regret for not talking to a person I may never ever see again and that this day was my one and only chance. I don’t know why I’m feeling so remorseful out of the entire situation especially since I don’t even know the guy.

It may sound confusing to you, but if you hear the back story of it, I’ll most probably end up sounding even stupider than I already am.

I hate adolescence.
