Update on My Crazy Life

Would you agree that sometimes life is crazy, fun and addicting?

I've had this terrible accident last Friday, I think I blogged about it already, but until now the wound is still in the process of healing, good thing my ring finger is no longer swelling and it doesn't hurt that much anymore.

My sister failed the nursing board exam, she took it months back and we all waited for this moment, but she failed. I'm gonna be honest about it, I cried. My family's not the rich type and we've all struggled so she could finish this course, I know she tried everything she can but still failed. Maybe it's not yet her time.

Mom is really depressed, so is my sister, she barely spoke to me when I called her. I brought her here last Sunday to console her broken heart, gave her all the encouragement she would need for the next battle on November. Told her to find a job while doing a self review, I know it's gonna be a tough fight but life isn't about being too comfortable. We brought her back home yesterday, knowing the battle plan isn't gonna be easy but happy because she knows that I'm always here to support her. I also told her to temporarily stop her hobby in photography and anime, she has all the time in the world after the next board exam. She needs to focus this time.

Last Tuesday, still part of the plan to console her and to get off the daily routine, we went to La Mesa Ecopark with her bf Carlo. It was a crazy ride not entirely knowing where to go. I only knew how to reach Novaliches but after that I'll be damned lost. So, the ride went smoothly until we reached Novaliches except for some car related problems which Jeff took care of.

We got lost approximately 10 times before getting to SM Fairview supposedly in time for lunch. We had troubles finding our way out the subdivision which is supposedly the short cut going to SM. 20 pesos left our pocket just so we could go back to the real non-mountain like road. After a hefty meal and some groceries we purchased for our supposed picnic we then tried to look for La Mesa Ecopark, voila, we got lost again, we even reached the far end of Kaybiga Caloocan, which is really far from Ecopark.

After a good 30 minutes we reached La Mesa Ecopark and it wasn't that fascinating, it's just like going to the province with all those trees and couples getting their prenup pics all over the place. We rested inside the bamboo house if I can call it that. When my sister and her bf got back from viewing the dam, we decided to go home.

The drive home is pretty okay, or so I thought, when this traffic guy in yellow hunt us down because of this crazy coding system (yes, coding kami that time, lakasan lang ng loob yan). This traffic guy took Jeff's license and took a really good luck at him, he said that he's probably his relative even showing the guy's name from his cellphone. Yes, he let us walk away just like that, he didn't even took Jeff's P100 offering.

After reaching Malinta Exit, I finally gave Jeff the freedom to use NLEX instead of going through the hassle and traffic of Mc Arthur's Highway. Jeff thought it was the best experience of the day, I loved it too. In fact, we're planning on going back to NLEX pretty soon.

One more update, my boss, finally gave me the afternoon shift. After nearly 2 months of working my ass off on the night shift they probably noticed that I was so getting stressed out. Now, I'll be staying in the lax shift for the next three weeks. I'm so happy because I'm able to sleep more than 8 hours a day now.

So sorry for the very long post, so many things happened that I wasn't able to blog about, I hope you didn't get tired reading it. So here, life for me is fun, crazy and addictive, these experiences make the ride really to die for.
