Sleepovers and Safety Limits

This was supposed to be posted last night but I changed my mind. Anyways here it is: 


I was supposed to stay overnight at a groupmate’s house for our HUMAART reporting on Rodel Tapaya’s award-winning mural Baston ni Kabunian but my dad was not interested about the idea. According to him, he questioned the idea of sleeping over at a groupmate’s place if there’s Skype and instant messaging. He insisted on relying on the convenience of technology for some reason; also, he emphasized that I’m not living in a province. Nothing against his idea, but oh well. I am pretty sure he’s concerned about my safety especially we live miles and skies apart from each other.



I bet you’re expecting me to act like Veruca Salt from Charlie and the Chocolate Factory but surprisingly for you I am not being a spoiled brat as of this moment. Even though technically I am not allowed to go outside Metro Manila without adult supervision, I am glad my friends stand by me one hundred percent. So don’t expect me to go anywhere outside NCR with my friends in the meantime except for field trips and retreats until I graduate from college.
