washed away

"Pants, Socks, Dirty Drawers

I'm Headed To The Laundromat
And Let's Not Forget The Food Stains, Dirt Spots, Headsets,
Chips, Pop, Pay Phones, Clean House
I'm Headed To The Laundromat"

~*~ NIVEA feat. R. Kelly ~*~

Our household help left early this month (for good) leaving a mountain pile of laundry in my room =( And the washing machine doesn't work either. I looked for a laundry shop in Nova Bayan and found none. Super malas. Or hindi ko lang alam kung saan maghahanap. So I have no choice but to do the laundry myself. Imagine 3 weeks worth of clothes... super dami. My only consolation is that there's only 1 pair of Denim pants, the rest are my pok-pok shorts and skirts na. Ooppps... there's one bath towel din pala. Pero no problem with my tops, maliliit lang kasi... pang-Grade 1 lang ang size, haha! I brought all my dirty clothes at Jackee's place. Syempre hindi ako masyadong ready, as in I don't have soaps and all. I can't bother Jackee coz she's in her tutorial class. I can't find her supplies of detergents. So I went to the nearest Sari-Sari Store to buy the things I need. "Pabili nga po ng Ariel", I told Manong Tindero. "Anong klase?", he replied. Ang nasabi ko lang eh, "Kahit ano po. Tsaka pabili din ng Downy". Again, he replied, "Anong klase?". Hmmn... gusto ko ng sabihin na "SIRIT!!!" Hahaha, this only shows na commercialism really made life complicated. I don't know which variant to use, all I know is that... gusto ko mag-Ariel at Downy. Period. Enough of this shameless plugs at wala naman bayad ;-P

So I spent the day washing my clothes while ignoring the neighbors na nakiki-UZI. I was so conscious. I swear, it's really annoying that they have to stare or pause just to check me out. Maybe they we're wondering who I was. Maybe they were thnking, "May bagong Labandera si Teacher". Bwahaha!!! Eh nde naman ako naka-Klang Klang kasi di ba short hair ako. Gets mo? Yung labandera look, naka-pusod yung hair tapos may Chok-Chok clip or whatever it's called ;-P Or those who know me are so puzzled to see me washing clothes. Bakit kaya? Hindi ba bagay!?! Hahaha!!! Or halatang hindi marunong. Bwahaha!!!

While waiting for the washing machine to give the warning sound na it's done spinning the clothes, I was thinking, "When was the last time I did my laundry?" Hmmmn... super tagal na I think. Yung ganito kadami ha. I think the last time I literally washed clothes was during my early GABC days when I was sent to train in Cebu. I stayed sa staffhouse with no washing machine. So I did my laundry that time, pero yung mga undies lang and socks, the rest I bring it to the Laundry Shop. T-A-M-A-D-! Pero yung super dami talaga was nung College days pa, when my Mom went to Pangasinan for months. Walang choice kundi maglaba di'ba!?! I remember Owen used to help me pa nga, hahaha! Kasi nakakaawa daw ako tignan pag mag-pipiga ng clothes, parang mababali na daw ung mga braso ko. Okay, enough of the Owen thoughts. Ehem ;-P

I haven't rinsed my clothes yet but I have to stop since La Greta showed up. Yey! I dropped the chore to entertain her Highness. It's Chismaks Time!!! Ohhhhhh soooooooo super saya =) Full of animated kwento and award winning punchlines. Jackee, Jette and I spent the afternoon laughing our hearts out with all the kwento while pigging out on chips and iced tea. Super great way to de-stress. I HEART JETTE!!! She's so funny and full of kwento talaga. Napawi ang pagod ko sa paglalaba =)

It was already dark when I started rinsing my labada. At ramdam ko na talaga ang pagod. The neighbors are already commenting, "Uy ginabi ka na, ah". Kaya pati si Jackee excited na rin when it's time na for the Downy banlaw, hehe. She helped me na nga to hang my clothes eh. Complaining na super bagal ko daw talaga kumilos. Sorry hindi ako expert eh ;-P Ifelt fulfilled when we finally hung the last piece of clothing. Sa wakas!!!

Chikahan pa rin kami ni Jackee while resting. Then my phone rang... si Tito Alex. He was asking where I was kasi he needs help daw with Chaska's Algebra assignment. Huh!?! As in Algebra, well goodluck sa'kin! Hahaha! I was planning pa naman to sleepover at Jackee's place kasi I was so tired and tamad na to go home. But then I had to rush home to check the email that Tito Alex sent me. At ayun nga... no joke... ALGEBRA nga *wink* Super goodluck talaga kasi it's almost 11PM na rin. Buti na lang... kahit na-nosebleed ako ng slight... nasagot ko naman =)

y^2 - 22y + 85 = 0

Ayan ang sample at kung ano-ano pang mga pinapa-problema na values ng X at Y. I even asked Kuks kung tama yung solution ko. Alam mo naman... yung mga iba d'yan... mas NERD =) Imagine us discussing over the phone, mahirap yun ha! Hay... Factoring a Trinomial after how many years... hmmn... buti may natira pang stock knowledge ;-P I used to tell my Teachers in Quesci, "Hindi ko naman magagamit yang mga X at Y na yan pag nag-PokPok ako eh". Bitch =) Nagtaka rin ako sa sarili ko, why I ended up in Engineering. Hmmn... siguro nga mas maiksi kasi ang pila ;-P
