Thoughts for today

I was just reading an article from Wikipedia and I learned that wisdom tooth appears at the age of 17-25 years. I’m 27 and haven’t got one until now. Is that normal? My dentist told me something about it last year but I’ve already forgotten what he said. I really should have set an appointment with him last month but the weather was a bit uncooperative, night shift is killing me and my social life, add the fact that the traffic in Divisoria is unimaginable during the rainy days. In other words, I’m lazy. But I’m crossing my fingers. I really have to call his secretary for an appointment within this month.

I found a slightly huge amount of money from the pocket of my old bag. Haha! What a lovely weekend surprise! And because this money was sort of unexpected, I couldn’t decide on what to purchase with it. Thing is, I’ve been wanting to buy a new bag since June but for some reasons, I had  to prioritize other things such as giving gifts to family members for their birthdays. Besides, my mother already gave me a bag last week. It was a beautiful black shoulder bag made of synthetic leather and shiny bling-blings, that’s how I call it, with a cute metal tag that says “Dolce and Baggana.” Cute but too corporate-looking. Friends will surely tease me by asking “are you the company owner?” Don’t get me wrong. Mom has a good taste, I just wish the spelling of the brand was correct. But of course, I’m going to use it.

Just a few reminders

Blogtoprofit: I need to re-submit sterndal dot com. Apparently, my blog was rejected due to “copying contents from other sites” which is totally silly! I sent an e-mail to the admin explaining a few things and luckily, I got a reply from them telling me that they are willing to re-evaluate my blog Weeh!

ATM: I’m already running out of cash (just 120 pesos in my wallet!), have to withdraw asap! I also need to drop by the supermarket to buy diapers and other baby supplies, then go to Meralco to settle our electricity bill. I’m just thankful that I already paid Mrs. Money-Eater in full last payday so I don’t have to see her face tomorrow and hopefully forever. Never again will I allow myself to be treated like a common criminal. No sir, no ma’am! (mimicking a character from one of VC Andrews’ novels).

NSO/SSS:  Having trouble with my membership in social security systems. The clerk said my SSS number/ID is just temporary because I haven’t submitted my birth certificate yet. HUH?! But I already gave it to them four and a half years ago! GRRR! I was told that if I want to apply for a salary loan, I have to give them my NSO certified birth certificate. So okay fine. But I’ve already lost my copy so now I need to request for a new one.

Passport: I can feel it! My dreams of working abroad are starting to realize. It was not that impossible as I have first imagined. When the angel told me about it, I honestly thought it was too good to be true. But, you know, opportunities come unexpected and in cluster. First, there is a chance of working in Korea (initially as a TNT but my friend’s friend’s friend promised to help me find a tutorial job as soon as I get there). Then, there came another one which is not sure yet but the mere fact that the angel considered me for this opportunity is enough to keep me joyful for the past few days I think it means she considers me as a friend! Anyway, I’m getting a passport, just in case any of the two will push through.

Dental We’re already two months late for our cleaning and check-up. I need to phone my dentist’s secretary to ask for an appointment not only because Mom is already freaking out but I’m also paying a small fortune for my and my mother’s medicard. I don’t really want to use our health insurance because that might mean being terribly sick, but dental is different, doesn’t necessarily mean we have cancer.
