Another embarrassing experience


You ever had that experience where you think of something bad happening and then you do every thing to avoid it, but even if you've secured yourself of the improbability of it happening it actually happens! (yeah... [-_-])

Every Friday however I'm always undecided because I hate going home early when it's not going to be a school night, it makes me feel like I'm throwing away an opportunity. An opportunity to have FUN.

Sooo.... I stayed later than usual at school, spending some time at the library, waiting for my friends from the homeroom club to come back from Greenwich (the pizza place), the one in Gaisano. When they did arrive however I abandoned the idea of going to Robinsons, it was pretty late by then. I decided to buy large fries from Mcdonald's for consolation instead. I boarded a jeepney and was well on way my way home. You may be wondering by now what's embarrassing in any of this, or, how could anything I've wrote so far be of any relevance to what I've said earlier. Well, here it is.

I hate dangling food while I'm in a jeepney, it makes me feel a little inconsiderate because no one else is eating anything. My bag was already bulging from all the things I've stuffed in it but I'd rather carry books than food. I, along with some friends, was ambushed once by a group of street children. It was a traumatic experience. Not Really.
I took out the book I was reading for my English book report, interesting book though I'm not halfway done with it. With the available space I stuffed my fries. So far so good, I kept the book in my sight and in my reach. When I was out f the jeepney, and when it was already driving away, I realized something so very horrible. I did NOT know where my book was. I panicked and I had to stop the jeepney. De ja vu, much. I had to ask over and over again if the book was anywhere in the spot I seated. They said "No it's not here" (in Ilonggo), and I said, "are you sure? Can you look again?" and finally I said Okay because they were so ure it wasn't there anymore. Thats was a mortifying time for me and even more motifying when i found out my book was in my hand the WHOLE time.

Lesson Learned:
Always check your hands when in search for a missing object before alerting other people.
