last day of summer

Out of all the days possible, it had to happen on this day.

We're pretty much water- less. I had to go to my tita's house (which is a tricycle ride away) a while ago just to have a nice, normal bath with water that doesn't reek with canal odor. If not for the few bucketfuls of clean water left here at home (yes, that's all we have), I would be totally doomed tomorrow.

Lesson of the story:
Conserve water because it's vital and precious. Or better yet, work hard and get ridiculously rich so you can buy one of those big drinking water companies and take the longest baths in pools of purified/distilled heaven.

Haha, I like the idea.

Now thinking about it, I'm starting to wonder if maybe this crisis thing is just life reminding me to appreciate simple luxuries like water and vacations. I admit, I have been taking these things for granted. That's really clever. Now I'm feeling as if a quotations book has suddenly decided to unfold itself in my head. I can definitely find a few speaking of true value and how people are often so oblivious of it.

See, the lack of a decent shower makes me think too much. 0 comment(s)
