badminton ++
haha... for the first time in 2 weeks we have been beaten 4 times in a row without a comeback!
it's me and my aunt vs my mom and my uncle. It is quite scary when my uncle is in the front line of the court. We will definitely get a rebound with smash hits for my high and yet weak enough hits as I have to strike the shuttle from the back of our court and im not even a power hitter for that matter. My reflex actions are simply stunned. LOL.
anyway, it was fun in a way, it's just next time whenever my mom wakes me up at 6:30 am, I should make sure to drink some green tea or coffee to wake myself up. My arm is complaining of pain now, but at least it is more or less getting used to the pain.
-------
i don't like going out even if it's for shopping but here I am, out again because I will have to accompany my mom in this 4-hour long seminar. If not for the free snacks Im readily half-convinced not to go (well... as if I had a choice not too). But anyway, I hope I could get something from this! =P
------
poverty in the Philippines is severe.
this morning while I was about to take a bath I heard a loud "ayo" (a form of knocking in our dialect) and the whole house was quite. My mama said there's this big-bodied beggar who comes by the house everyday. Reminds me that he is the guy I saw a day before and I was too lazy to get up and getting disturbed while watching a good show on TV. He was a stranger after all. What bothers me though is that it is "good to give to those who can't return it to you". But to a really big guy with a bulging tummy? I dunno, I feel like whatever help that is given to him all goes to his tummy and his personal gains like good clothes and all. I remember him wearing decent clothes when he came knocking at home (i was partly home alone then). Easy money for him... and I thought of possibilities... what if that guy gets mad and all??? and then this reminds me again of what Michael shared with us before, "nobody owes you a living".
And now I got two contradicting phrases...
In a way both of them are agreeable no matter how different they are. Yet, one cannot live with those two together! Geez... I also could not find the middle of the two because you can always the other extreme to contest your actions.
hard hard.
i wonder if anyone knows what answer is the best for this...
or should I just use my own intuition?
hmmm...
