Home Economics

I’m not, by any way, a spoiled kid. It’s just that I’m not into doing house chores. 

So my kaboom super powers were put to the test. Today’s lesson is on home economics. 

9am. Too early. I woke up because everybody’s acting like crazy ants. Chaos! All were too busy moving around as if something’s looming over a deadline. And while they were moving about, they were barking errands to me. Hell. By noon, they were all out, gone, and I was left sitting in front of the TV. Dazed. It took me sometime before realizing that I’m today’s housekeeper. Panic!

Worst case scenario: Pan on fire. Panic!

As if they’re not cruel enough, they left the rice cooker half-empty. Tutong. Dunno how to cook this rice variant right, so the one option left is to do sinangag with the cold leftover in the fridge. Only, I’m afraid of the freakin’ stove. Lucky enough there’s ready-to-eat lechon kawali on the table.

Time to do the chores. Wash the dishes. Quite allergic to dishwashing liquid. Then, take the washed clothes to dry. Mom’s note: Arrange by color. Yeah. Like the color spectrum. Next. Sweep, dust over,… enough. I’m tired. Phew. I’m no superwoman.

While most people would consider that H.E.’s the easiest subject in school because it’s just about practical everyday routine, I have to say I totally disagree. I think language is the easiest. Everybody talks, just think how people love to gossip. Admit it. Lol.

That’s it for today, folks. Today’s lesson: home economics. I guess I did fairly… Quite a good job for someone so lazy…
