please believe i'm good

i've been trying to think over the good deeds i have done in my childhood as i was walking across a foot bridge from ateneo to katipunan. (gate 2.5) i wanted to buy a pencil sharpener from national book store which was directly on the opposite side of the overpass. i have grown tired of my magic pencil because it keeps on getting dull everytime i use it. (well duh, that's what happens when you use a pencil. but then you sharpen it but in the case of a magic pencil your only choice is to change the lead and i refuse to! i could still use it! i mean, who does that?? ps: sorry i'm kinda peculiar. hehe) anyway, (snap out of the extra scribbles, leki! you have an experience to share, darn it!) here is the story:

there was this kid, who sort of walked with me along the whole overpass stretch and here's the catch, he talked.. a lot. "ate, ang ganda sa ateneo no?, ate san ka punta?, ate, penge namang coke." and TIRES SCREECHED, ttssshhh... what the?? i stared at the coke can in my hands which i bought like 2 minutes ago and which i have gone through only 1/4 of. then i went to look at the kid. he was, uh, small, and untidy and uh, small and well you get the picture. so anyway, i thought for about 15 seconds whether i'd give it to him or not since if i did i just wasted 20 bucks. and i said "no". (ooohh, harsh) no wait! i said, i will give half of it to him when i come out of the bookstore. but he just kept talking and walking with me, oh wait, running in his pace. "ate, saang bookstore? ate matagal ka dun? ate anong bibilhin mo? ate bigay mo ah." and in the back of my head i was like, "baket may iba pa bang bookstore sa tapat?, baket gusto mo ding hingin yung sharpener ko? yoko nga. iyo nalang yung magic pencil ko no. di ko bibigay yung sharpener" i felt like a kid debating with a kid. but then i got annoyed so i said, "fine it's yours". and he stopped right then and there.

there goes my one act of kindness for the day. (ARK. courtesy of evan almighty. watch it, it's good.) yey. claps for me. and back to my good deeds, turns out you wont actually remember every good deed you made in your life in fact you will remember more the bad ones! think about it, and you'll know i'm right. hehe
