Crimson Heavens

I got a news from home about an incident which might be considered to be a disaster to some members of the family involved. And yes, it did involve me, indirectly, in a way, sorta, because it involves people who are close to me. It got me all disturbed in a way, and it reminded me about my own experience when my grandpapa died and I almost didn’t have anything to my name.

It is a wonder how people can change almost overnight after a tragedy. From a happy person to a very depressed one, from a complete brat to someone so sweet and humble, from a person who seemed to be always in control to a nervous wreck.

Sometimes, after a major disaster happens, some mini-tragedies (well, they’re not really what you’d call a tragedy, more of just a series of bad luck) comes up. Like, you get fired, and then you get sick, and then the fridge suddenly craps up and all your food supply might end up rotten, and you don’t have any money to fix it much more get a new one….

Nowadays, I consider them as a big wake up call…the brutal type…Like when you’re in deep sleep, and someone just gives u a big slap in the face for you to wake up.It hurts, but in a way, the most effective.

Something really weird has been happening to our kitchen for quite sometime now….

All of a sudden, roachies are coming out from only God knows where! Not one, not two, but 20+ of them, one after another! Really creepy! I swear, it’s never happened before except for these past few months. Of course, they don’t come out like that everyday, it’s more of like a weekly occurance, specially when we’re doing the laundry. Like they’ve been disturbed from underground or something. We even brought the caretaker in and he moved the stuff around to see if there are holes somewhere, but we couldn’t find anything!

We do not only the attack from the roachie army, but the water in our kitchen, has a really dark reddish-brown color every morning and after letting it flow for sometime and it becomes clear again. And our water filter, has to be washed realllly often or it would end up looking really gross! Our faucet is being eaten up by rust and it had to be replaced at least every month. I bet even if we bought those posh Danze faucets they’d also end up crumbling like stale bread bahahaha!

I mean, sure if we live like total slobs and not clean our kitchen it would be understandable. But my in laws are really, really particular when it comes to cleanliness and all, so there’s no question of us breeding roachies and all that…Weirdnessss

So I haven’t been blogging lately. Work is currently driving me insane so…

Anyway, I’ll try to give you all a quick update on what has been happenin’

1. I haven’t been sleeping well these past few days because work…but then again that is nothing new…

2. I managed to set up a quick blog/podcast as a request by a Filipino resident priest here in Kuwait. This is for all Filipino Catholics out there – > http://www.pinoycatholicspodcast.info. To my fellow Pinoy Catholics, visit nyo naman…

3. Wanting a baby so bad is eating me up.  I am really getting depressed over it.

4. Our organization is in charge of the film-showing for the Phil. Independence day celebration here in Kuwait. Personally, I think the movie that is to be shown is so corny…I won’t mention the title na…Gives me the creeps. Haha!

5. I managed to recruit 2 more members for our organization. I hope they’ll get to come on Friday (see #4) so they’ll officially register in the org na.

6. Not been feeling well lately too (Probably due to #1?)

7. Hubby and I were supposed to go to the Philippines for a vacation this September, but that plan got cancelled coz…we’re going to Goa! I asked for a 36-day vacation…dunno if it’l get approved though…I miss my aunt and sister’s cooking…

8. I feel like rolling on something soft, nice and fluffy. Ignore me, that’s my disfunctional brain talking.
