Pig Loves Cow

I had a pretty nice day actually. I woke up at 6 in the morning, took a shower, got dressed, and went to work. I got lucky on parking space, there was one free slot available so I quickly parked the car. I dropped by the infamous coffee shop that I now miss, Starbucks. I miss the surroundings of our old office; being there makes me feel young as its corridors are crowded by students of UA&P.

I got lucky again that the night shift people haven’t gone home yet, so I got in. I was afraid I wouldn’t get in because I don’t have a key to the office. I got a couple of interesting tasks at work. I left an hour later than my shift ends, and went shopping for a bit. I dropped by the “kawaii” “notebook shop” that Gracia told me about, but I couldn’t find anything that I like. Actually, I found one, but I couldn’t stand the English plus I felt it was useless to me and expensive for what it’s worth. Since I was waiting for 7pm, the time the coding on my car ends, I had a lot of time to myself. I tried to withdraw the money I was going to use to pay my bills, but when it was my turn, the ATM went berserk and kept me waiting for a good 10 minutes before finally telling me that it didn’t have any hundred-dollar bills. I tried thrice to make a transaction; to no avail. I switched over the the other ATM and good thing that was working. Since I was itching to buy a notebook/draft book, I decided to pay bookstores a visit, and went insde Powerbooks. Boy, do they have a lot of nice stuff, too bad they’re pretty expensive. I got a pretty decent notebook that costs P200, and a copy of this month’s Reader’s Digest. On my way to the bank, I stopped by the pet shop. I’ve been meaning to buy a cat one of these days, and I found a “cute”, very fluffy persian cat (misspelled by the shop as “Pearsian Cat”). Unfortunately it’s already 5 months old and priced at P15,000. I’m not rich, so I proceeded to deposit my money to to bank and pay my bills instead…

I walked my way back to the car, which was a good 20 minutes’ exercise away. I was so dehydrated and exhausted so I stopped by a nearby 7-11 to grab something to eat and drink, and finally, went home…
