raindrops

it's been raining for the past few days and to match it, i've been sleeping a lot as well. i don't know, it's just my habit to sleep when it's raining. it's like turning on the AC and forgetting all your worries without the hassle of electric bills in the end.

for around 4 days now, i've been teaching my brother english, reading, spelling, math and comprehensive reading all out of the big book my mom dug out. plus a chapter a day from 'James and the Giant Peach' by Roald Dahl. being a teacher is no big feat, and in the end i'm left in a bad state wherein i have a scratch here or a scrape there and a pink spot on my hand. yes, my brother and i don't really get along well when it comes to academics. i don't get how he just couldn't see the answer when it's right infront of him. especially with comprehension. today was the worst and we ended up crying and shouting at each other through a closed door. i hate it when people are so slow into catching up.

but no worries! we made up in the end (over sardines and hotdog and rice at lunch) and here i am now writing what happened. my brother might be a pain but he gets points for being sweet.

so! for now, i've earned around 200 for the 31st! yeah! let's all count until i get to 1k!

(ish now having a bad case of colds... damn)
