Alas! I ruled the house for 3 days!

My parents got this trip to Boracay for 3 days and I just can't go, due to some lame neccessities in Life, which I have to consider as the "foundations" of my future and of myself, as an individual...In short, I had to go to school... yea... definitely... a bummer. Anyway, at first it was like.."yeah! they'll be gone for days! No one would tell me what to do for 3 days!" (wtf!) but, oh yea. it was like that. I was the girl who worshipped the sound of "THREE DAYS".

When they left...everything was still good. I had no classes the next day. I was super relaxed coz no one woud dictate to me a list of chores and things to do for the day. I was a couch potato, who's only struggle was how to get my head in a more comfortable position while watching a movie, and believe it or not, I didn't even get to take a bath for the day! Yup! That's what I was while they were gone... a pig!

Yet, when night came. I had to totally put myself back and start with schoolwork, and thank God I finished it in no time. But when I got to bed, it surely wasn't easy. I would often hear my parent's voices in my head and think that they were on the other side of the room divider. I could not sleep comfortably. It was a night when I couldn't get myself sink into the deepest sleep that I wanted. A slight sound change of the aircon's thermostat would awaken me. I was a guard dog...A chicken who could only sleep in half... Oh well, you got me..I missed my parents that night.

Well. I admit, being independent and all that is really what I loved the most since high school, but everytime independence would sit on my palms, I could never stir my mind away from memory lane. I would always think of them, and what my normal day would have been with them around. There would also be this thought that erupts in my mind that what if something unwanted is about to happen. God, I still cannot bear the cruelties of life without them! I'm still learning the ABCs of Responsibility, the 123s of living..

How ironic this has been, but I know I have to face the demands of everything. I just hope that my parents get back home safe.
