di naman ako cash cow...

a month ago, my brothers told me there was this girl who always calls me. Laging bad timing, weekdays kasi. I'm in QC. They forgot the name. They just described how the voice sounds. Mahinhin daw. I thought, hmm, Roche?? hindi pala siya.

I received a call a while ago (because I am not yet online.lol). Nagulat ako na someone called me. rare yun. I don't use our landline unless for Internet. Naabutan nako ng girl na tumatawag saken. Nagulat ako when I have learned who it was. Batchmate ko nung high school. Not even classmates ha? Batchmate lang. Di ko na sabihin ung name. Anyways, nagulat ako. We're not close not even friends. Just acquaintance.

She told me her reason for calling. She's asking for help. Note. Financial help. I could actually hear her voice breaking, almost at the verge of crying. *sigh* I want to help. But I am dependent on my parents. I promised her I'll try. meaning, I'll try to ask my Mom if she could extend kahit maliit lang na help. for tuition naman yun e.

BUT, i can't help blaming the girl. It's not like the reason she's asking for help was because they don't have money at all. The start of it all was when she dropped a subject because the subject's schedule is freaking ugly, and this is without consent from her parents. And when she has to transfer school, makikita ng parents niya na may dropped subject siya. So she has to take the subject again to cover up the dropped subject. Ganun sa school nila. Take the dropped subject again, mawawala na yung record. So someone agreed to lend her money to enroll the said subject. Plus, nawalan na ng bisa yung CAP educational plan di ba?Yun dapat pang tuition niya. Kaso hindi. And the result now, the money for her Finals was used to pay the friend. And now, she has no money for Finals and she's asking for help. hay. If she has just been honest to her parents. Oh well. Anjan na nga naman yan. Kelangan pangatawanan.

Nagulat ako when she told me she asked for help from only 4 of our batchmates. She got my number daw from our annual. I was thinking, "Bakit saken??di naman tayo close..ni di tayo friends?" Ang weird lang. Why me? Di naman pati ako mayaman. Di naman ako cash cow.

Di naman masyado malaki (meaning, hindi naman tipong 5000 and above) money na kelangan though di naman din madaling kunin yun di ba??kaso kung uutang sya, magpapatong-patong yun di ba?

I want to ask my mom if she can give me money. Kaso tatanungin niya para san. E di naman ako nagsisinungaling kung saan ko dinadala pera ko. Para at least alam nila. Ok lang naman sa kanila most of the time e. Basta honest daw at di illegal at masama. baka sakali, sila pa magbigay sa batchmate ko. Kaso, may twist nga sa story nung girl. Mejo kasi kadelinkwentehan yung reason bakit nagkaganon.hay.
