I get by with a lot of help from my friends

I lost my coin purse.. while at school... which apparently contains the money I need to get home...

this is when you realize that truly... no man is an island...

cause luckily.. I saw Elmar Lactaoen.. he gave me some spare change.. which was 16 pesos.. with a very shiny five peso coin..

he must've realized with the eerily serious tone of my voice... this was an urgent situation... because I tend to humiliate him in front of his friends.. maybe it also occurred to him than when I don't act like an ass.. there must be a problem...

oh yes oh yes... I always act like an ass one way or another...

then I thought of Sud.. oh yes oh yes.. I think about men... I texted him immediately.. and informed him of the situation... I went to his location and surprisingly.. he got overly generous... he gave me a hundred peso bill.. when I only needed 32 pesos..

so that's 6 pesos for the jeep to recto..

15 pesos for the ticket from recto to santolan..

10 pesos for the jeepney ride to cypress..

and 17 pesos for the tricycle ride to my house...

I tend to feel uneasy when I get help from other people... I really dunno why.. maybe I got too used to being the lone wolf.. and when others help me.. I feel like I'm not doing my job properly..

but I am totally grateful.. I just don't like it when I am indebted to other people...

Don't worry. If ever the need arises AGAIN, I won't lend you money even if you beg for it. =))))
