What I Want To Call Mine and Mine Alone


Whenever I have to stay in other places, I only hope for one thing: my own bathroom.
I don't mind sharing spaces including the bedroom. I do mind sharing a bathroom.
I'm not keen on using public bathrooms.  It's not that I'm squeamish.
It's just that it is supposed to be something of your own.
It's a very personal space so it's logical not to share it with just anyone.

These days when the cost of living is so high in the city, 
personal spaces are a luxury.  Sharing your stuff is the rule.
Stuff that you are not using at the moment is not yours anymore.
Well, I heard that from a nun in high school 
who told us that we need to be charitable all the time.

I am for charity.  
Sharing what others urgently need and don't have, that is charity.
Sharing a bathroom is a pet peeve.
Even though the need to use the bathroom is always an urgent case, 
I'd rather wait for a while to use my own at home.

Thank goodness, I'm pre-menopausal and still continent. ^_^

Coffee And Mormons

I've been spending a lot of time in coffee shops, haven't I?  It seems my posts are somehow related to them. Just a while ago, I saw a group of young Mormon missionaries inside Starbucks right across their temple.  I remember someone telling me that Mormons are not allowed to have coffee.  I wonder if they're also not allowed to drink tea.  If so, they must be hear for the Apple Pockets. If drinking coffee is a sin against God, does that mean I put coffee before God?  Is coffee so good that I am purposely defying God with every cup? Honestly, I haven't read anything from the Bible saying something against drinking coffee.  I also wonder if they had coffee back then.  They had wine.  And look what alcohol does to people.   I don't hear any church banning alcohol from their lifestyle.

Couldn't Help Myself

How can I study using online books when I'm so addicted to blogging and blog hopping.  I can't help myself when I open my dashboard, I also scroll way down to my reading list.  And I couldn't help visiting my fellow bloggers' blogs.  I don't know if it's fortunate or unfortunate for me to be following so many blogs already.  But I'm really enjoying my time what's everyone's up to these days. I may be putting off my studying.  Or maybe, I'm really just addicted to other people's blogs.  Sigh!

Paying Respects To Another Boss

Awhile ago, I was approached by one of my immediate superiors.  She told me that my shift manager was complaining that I wasn't greeting her "Good Morning Ma'am" when I do my biometrics near her office.  I reasoned out that I didn't know I was supposed to do that and I have never heard anyone doing that. She told me that I need to because the shift manager was the sister of the owner's (the one I saw before) sister.  I was a bit irritated.  I don't mind greeting anyone.  In fact, I usually greet the lady and the " manong " janitor whenever I see them on the floor.  It's because they were looking at me and so I felt the need to acknowledge their presence.  But the shift manager, who doesn't even look anyone's way, demands to be greeted whenever she's in the room.  I wonder if she thinks people should bow down. In my previous jobs, I greet those who I respect irregardless if they are the owner of the establishment I'm workin...
