WE ARE SURVIVORS.

March 9, 2012

"I'm a survivor I'm gonna make it. I'm a survivor." Good, now sing it again the chipmunk way.

                       Okay, I'm not talking about the kind of survivor from cancer or something. Like, I'm talking about robbery or anything else that could've killed us.
You see, we live in this subdivision with many reports of robbery the past few days. Like this woman who just came from Florida was jogging (apparently, she had all her expensive jewelry with her) and then they got snatched by guys on a motorcycle. Next, about 2-3 houses were robbed as well. Everything happened quickly, but we took note that they all had something to do with a motorcycle.
One afternoon, when I was about to go home, I was in a car and lots of things were on my mind.
Stress.
and more bull.
I wanted to get away from all of it.
Without thinking, as if my hand was controlled by a ninja, my hand reached to my pocket and got out my cellphone and called my friend, Abigail (You would've known her from the POOL EXPERIENCE. It was her birthday that time. Tweet me if you want a link :))
So it went a little something like this:
"Hello?"
"Hello Ab, feel ko mag lakad lakad today." (I'd like to go walking)
"Nagastudy man ako sa exam." (I'm studying for an exam.)
"Oh. Okay." cue sad voice..
"Pwede man, mag review lang tayo habang naga walk." (It's possible, we can just walk while you're helping me review)
"Great, thanks, see ya."
and then as I got home, I threw my bag on my bed, got dressed, ate a little bit of mcdonalds and left.
I used my bike at the moment.
Lalallalalalalal~~ me, biking... lalalala.
So I get to Abigail's house, waited for a while outside until she finished her reviewer.
I left my bike and we started to walk.
Every time a flock of birds go by, we made a wish. Alexis told us so. xD
First I helped her review, like,
some names that sounded awkward I renamed.
I still remember, Edward Cullen Double Decker Burger
and there was Munckin living.
and two answers.
we laughed the whole time while we were even walking at the middle of the road.
Then we started talking about my problems at school, that was the main reason we met.
I could only FULLY trust Polarians.
then when we were beside the beach,
Vroooom, Vrooooom.
WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT?!?!
A motorcycle.
I told you to look out for motorcycles.
We looked back and saw two guys on a motorcycle, one wearing black, the driver, and the one behind him, in white.
We were already frozen and half-panicking because of the motorcycle.
We stopped.
No one was there, just us, the beach, the grass, the bird, the microorganisms and other cellular life.
Then they passed us, and were even smiling at us, I think, I didn't wear my glasses at the time.
BUTT WEIGHT,
at the end of the road, they stopped and started to turn around.
Abigail was like:

I was, too. but not very much because I couldn't see any much without my glasses.
then she started to walk away at the intersection before they could get any closer,
she whispered, "Hala, bumalik sila Lyen, alis na tayo lyen." (LYEN! THEY ARE COMING BACK! WE GOTTA GO!)
then I got it.
She started to run,
I started to run and scream.
Like so,

Really, I was.
So Abigail laughed while running,
and I laughed too.
Let me get this straight.
We were panicking WHILE laughing.
 We ran as fast as we can to the intersection, and proceeded to where there were people.
Then we got to her house and ate pancit.
we started talking about how I would blog this and post the telephone wire armed meme, which I did.
It was scary and fun.

Mostly fun, then came the possibility of getting robbed or killed or raped,
or even worse, expelled.
No, I'm totally kidding about the second statement.
But still,
ABIGAIL,
WE SURVIVED, THANKS TO YOU xDD
Beware people of Gulfview, beware of motorcycles I tell you.
xDD
