there's a rat in my bowl

Change bedsheet.. check. CDs littering the floor put on the shelf.. check. Empty water bottles put in the trashbin.. check. Dirty clothes counted for later delivery to laundry shop.. check. Dirty socks and undies packed away to be washed personally by moi at the province..check. laptop and celfone chargers already in the backpack.. check. Whew. Now at least my little home away from home has that semblance of a home after that mild clean-up of sorts. I really ought to seriously clean the place sometime soon and by clean, i mean really clean. Some days ago i had the heart pounding experience of flushing down a rat i found swimming in my toilet bowl early one morning—how’s that for an early morning cardio workout, then huh? before its just cockroaches running the length of my walls,(of course i have my handy tsinelas to take care of em..for good) now, its rat on the menu. I wonder what’ll be next?! Calling animal rights activists in the neighborhood!! ;P

But for now i think that single effort will suffice, as i have to go home today. Took a one day leave from the office so i won’t worry getting home late at night; i used to opt to head home directly (by home i mean the province) after my last day of office work but i sortof changed strategy so i can drop by trinoma to buy northpark taipao for ate and nanay. Yesterday, the three-day seminar ended; i can’t be doing anything much at the office now, even if i chose to work this one single day, as the weekly work schedule i plotted for myself was ruined anyway when i decided to accept the seminar assignment, so its better off to take the day and run some special errands before going home, right? Ate made lambing last time that she kinda misses the taipao, so its taipao i’m gonna hunt for. But that’s gonna be after i deliver the laundry to the nearby shop.. and had some breakfast filling my tummy. Ciao.
