Shocked!!! Frustrated!!!

I wasn't the one who was shocked, but thanks for your concern. Hehehe. My friends back in high school were shocked with my news. =p
But I'm the one who got frustrated this morning.

Two of my high school classmates texted me last night (namely Kristian and Art. hehehe). I was eating dinner and they were hurrying me up because they wanted to meet with me. *sigh Anyway, they asked for my help in looking for an apartment or a room for rent. Kristian will be staying here in Cebu soon, and he needs a place near IT Park (he'll start training on Monday). Currently, he's staying in Labangon, together with one of his barkada (also one of our classmates before). Art, on the other hand, is living here (also in Apas), but has no experience of looking for a house/room to be rented.

Anyway, while waiting (I didn't actually know what we were waiting for last night..hihi), they we're telling my stories about our former classmates, that one of our classmates is pregnant. My reaction was plain, and they were like "OK, wala siya na-shock" (OK, she isn't surprised at all). I mean, if you have a son and you heard a news that someone's pregnant, who would be surprised? Well, they didn't know about my baby. So I told them "Ako, dili mo mangutana? Naa na ko anak" (How about me, wouldn't you ask me? I already have a son.). They were like "Ei? Atik?!?" (Really?). They couldn't believe what I just said and the thought kept hanging on their heads. They wouldn't believe me until I showed them my son's pictures.

OK, after looking for a house, we went to Ayala to meet another classmate (Herlene). Before we got in the mall, we met Grace, one of our batchmates (now Kidapawan is starting to flock here in Cebu. hehehe). We decided to take out some food and drop by her pad in Golden Prince Hotel to have a chat. We met with Herlene inside and bought pizza, then to Golden Prince. We were having a good chat until Grace asked me how I was doing. Kristian was like "Sige na, Mel. Ingna si Maming (Grace)" (Go ahead, Mel. Tell Maming).

So there! As I was breaking the news, she was like "Wait! Wait! Wait!". Herlene couldn't believe it herself. The idea of me getting pregnant and having a child is really different from what they expected. It was so hard for them to absorb the news. Hehehe...so there! they were shocked!

Second part, I was really frustrated this morning. I was on my way to Alto Manpower Services, the agency that got me that stupid helper. Their office is the 2nd floor Ouano Building, Banilad, Cebu. The traffic was so heavy and I was starting to get pissed off. When I was already downstairs, they texted me, they can't give the refund that I asked. So there, I went in and started telling them how their f**cked up agency got me into trouble. My voice is already high (but I'm not yelling), and the secretary was like "Wala man gud napirmahan ni Ma'am and withdrawal slip. Nya, tu-a siya sa Bohol. Hatagan lang taka ug number niya, Ma'am para ma-text nimu siya" (Ma'am forgot to sigh the withdrawal slip and she's currently in Bohol. I'll just give you her number so that you can text her).

I was so furious while answering her back, my voice was already shaking because of anger. "Unsaon ko man nang number niya nga inyo na man kong naperwisyo? Musaad mo nga karon unya wala diay gihapon!" (What will I do with her number that you've already got me into a big trouble? You told me that I'll have it today, but then again, I get nothing!).

It was the first time that I showed great anger to other people that I don't even personally know. I'm always polite in confronting other people but this morning was different, I was raging with anger. But after I left the agency, on my way to the office, I felt really good.

Now thinking about it, what will happen if CAP still tells me that I still can't claim my four-semesters-worth reimbursment? Hmmmm
