| I did it. |
| DAY ONE |
The first day of my freakishly easy dare. I did say that I would do good deeds but I didn't think that it would be easy or that I would have a hard time doing something that would shake me and my selfish butt to the core but I guess the saying "Rome wasn't built in a day" would somewhat fit in with the situation I'm in.The day started as usual, breakfast, a bit of time on the computer and then I leave for school, before I left for school, I made a post, which was supposed to be done last night so while I was riding down to school, I wasn't really sure what kind of good deed I would do, more of if I could LAST not doing anything at the expense of the misery of others.
I don't think I have to expound on anything else that happened in the day, on what class I took and all that but I guess what would be good if is I would tell you how I can say that I somewhat ACCOMPLISHED the first day of a good deed.
If we're friends, you'd know how selfless I could be. When somethings are mundane I am selfless but when things are about to get bad for me, I tend to get selfish... very selfish. I don't want to give excuses for myself right now, that would be another SIN.. right?
We get out of school, and we ride tricycles to get to the place where we could ride jeepneys since our school is a bit far from that place. It was noon and if you live in the PH or anywhere in asia and it's sunny, you just have to agree with me that it is hot.. like HELL. YEAH! *insert frown here* haha.
We were FOUR to ride a tric and a tric can only accommodate THREE people, if ever FOUR one would have to sit on the small metal chair that would only give you two things. A frown and discomfort, but knowing this. Knowing how I would feel the discomfort, I just let one of my friends take the good sits, leaving my butt crying for help and then it hit me. MY GOOD DEED FOR THE DAY.
I didn't choose to sit there with the challenge in mind, it just.. happened, and I'm proud of myself... somewhat. The moment of when my selfishness switch was supposed to switch on gave me the opportunity to do a good deed, this might actually lead me somewhere, into a better habit? I hope so.
BUT DO NOT REJOICE JUST YET, FOR I AM STILL ROMAN MARCOS.
I DO WHAT I WANT AND I GET WHAT I WANT... THOUGH DO EXPECT
A SOFTER APPROACH AFTER THIS T_T
