Petite Pedia Plots 10 You know the mom is anxious about her sick daughter when she has a suitcase with her when she visits you in the clinic. She also had it with her when she visited the ER this morning.  And when you ask to see what’s in the suitcase, there’s nothing inside.  Hahahaha!

Gonna go to Ghana

Daughter Duties 2 Woke up to hearing my mom on the phone with a high school classmate of hers. “Hindi ko nga siya kakilala kasi section C siya eh. Kasi tayo  section A.  Lahat ng marurunong nasa section A”. That gust of wind just blew by me. Hehehe.

Checking Cellphone

Daughter Duties 1 Called my mom at home using my cellphone to ask if someone could bring me the car’s spare key. (Yes, I accidentally locked my key inside.)   After 5 mins, she calls me up on my cellphone. “Anak, tatanong ko lang kung dala mo cellphone mo”. Hehe.

Petite Pedia Plots 7 Was prodded, poked and pinched yday afternoon by small little fingers in the orphanage.  Turns out the kids liked my blouse which had holes and lace as design. They all wanted to touch it.
