When I was pregnant with my second child, my eldest and I went out a couple of times, playing at the arcade, shopping for his baby brother's need, and just simply having fun. We usually go at Trinoma because it used to be ten minutes away from our place. We usually go at weekdays because it's less crowded.
One time, while we were waiting for my husband, my son and I hanged around the food court for a little while and ate some snacks. Just then, little 'ol forgetful me, lost my kid's bag. Huhu.. :,-(
So I went to the customer service area to report my lost bag. When we were on our way there, I asked a couple of people around from where we were if they have seen a small kid's bag with a picture of a red car on it (it was Lightning Mcqueen from the Disney's movie "Cars").
The funny thing was when I ask some people around, they're reply is, "Anong laman?" Like, duhh?? Aren't you supposed to ask me where I lost it, or what does it look like? Not what's inside it, right?
I was getting pissed, so when I asked one of the ligpit boys (yung mga nagliligpit ng napagkainan) if they have seen a kid's bag, and when I got another dumb reply, I answered, "Ang laman, ginto, pilak, namumulaklak." Ha ha! Rude ba? Sabay bawi, "'Di joke lang." ;-)
Another example: One time, when we were still living at my dad's place, my mom called us and told us that nilooban daw yung house niya. So after the details, she did the same thing I did and asked our neighbors around if they have seen anyone climbing our gates and slashing the locks of our house away. "So anong sabi nila ma?", I asked. "Wala daw sila nakita, tapos tinatanong nila kung ano daw ba ang nanakaw o nawala sa bahay," my mom replied. Geesh! Unbelievable people! I mean, would it help us all if you would know what's inside my lost bag? Or would help us more to catch the criminal who went inside my mom's house if you chismosas knew that some our valuables are missing?! I mean, seriously. . . Wala na ba kayong ibang matanong? Hindi ba dapat the right questions are, "Kelan nangyari?", "Anong araw o oras nangyari?", "May tao ba dun sa bahay noong nangyari ito?" Hindi yung, "May nawala ba?" ??!!! Di ba?
Wala lang, I just find the dumb questions unhelpful, stupid and inquisitive (in short, nakikiusi!)
Haay . . . sa bagay, that's life eh. Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose. And when you lose, you get stupid questions like the ones I mentioned above. Ha ha! Just kidding ;-)
The moral here people is that, don't be negligent of your belongings, buy a house alarm system (Ha ha, exagg!). Okay, if that's not possible, just hope and pray that everything will turn out just fine. And finally, no more dumb questions alright? Peace! ;-)
