The American Home-owner's life... -,-

man i'm tired.. -.- XD

'It isn't all fun and games here in America..'

Tito Joel always tells me this when he sees me looking all messed up, dirty, and sweaty, when i help him cut the grass or when i do my chores.. XD .. he'd also say.. "Ano Jase? buhay ka pa?" XD

Sure life here in America may be more pleasant compared to the life there in the Phils. but it all comes at a price.. Even though you may think it's wicked awesome to live in a housr like Tita Jinky and Tito Joel's house (which kinda is XD ..), it may not ALWAYS be what you think..

I've worked harder here than I ever have back in the Philippines (referring to house responsibilities =D ..) .. satin kc sa pinas, may mga katulong tau or cleaning ladies, etc.. di tulad d2.. ndi uso ung ganun.. ung mga tipong milyonaryo n may mga mansion ung tipo na may mga maid d2 XD .. but we ain't millionaires.. thus all the responsibilites of having such a nice house is bestowed upon us.. in other words, chores XD

but on a more serious note, we are only stewards to God's blessings and grace.. Tita Jinky and Tito Joel would not have all these great things (like their cars [note the plurality XD..] , the house, and much much more!..) if not for God's goodness.. so it's only right that we take care of these things that comes from Him..

anyways, as i was saying, ive worked harder here sa mga bahay nina Tita Jinky and Tita Norie, than i have ever worked in my home dyan sa Pinas.. we have Ate Eden (our cleaning lady) come every 2 weeks kc.. so i never really had responsibilites in the house as heavy as my responsibilites in Tita JInky's house..

today, i helped Tito Joel cut the grass, i scrubbed the lanai (which is parang ung veranda-ish thingy sa labas..), vacuumed the whole house, did the surface cleaning (punas2 XD..), and cleaned the bathroom, which included the sink, the toilet, and the bathtub...

but you know what.. it's all worth it ^^ .. i dont mind doing all this in exchange for living in such a nice house ^^ (and i made another 20 dollars today.. XD.. ;) :> ^^ .. totalling to an amount of 60 dollars for this whole week! =D ..)

so what is my point?

my point is that you shouldn't think that im living a laid back, pampered, and rich kind of life here.. i have my responsibilities and i do hard work here.. we're talking blood, sweat, and tears man! XD .. w8.. minus the tears pala XD ..

i must admit though, the life here is great; but always remember that it's not as great as you may think.. cuz there's always something missing..







it's you guys..
