ire-ish

the life outside the city...

is peaceful...? No. not really.

here in the province we find all sorts of folks ranging from subdued to psychopathic.
months ago, we were awakened one early morning with sounds of gunshots, which I thought were fireworks.. later that mornIng it was confirmed that a man was kIlled by someone who shot hIm wIth a gun. the guy who died was a drunkard, apparently even If he was belIeved to have some kind of super powers– the shot on his head was fatal enough to kIll him.

last week, one of our company`s client was robbed just nearby our plant by some guys on a motorbike. that client was driving his truck when a dIrtbIke pulled them over on the curve.. they could've gone away with our client`s cash but the robber`s gun didn't fire. they were only able to take his rolex as the client drove his truck away in haste.
a few days later, the congressman–and–owner of the plant deployed men armed with their m4s, to keep the peace and order of the premises. What you shouldn't know is that a day before the held up took place, I walked home ALONE, passing by the same curve where the crime happened and yes, I'm still alive and blogging about it. I guess luck was on my side. But who would actually care to rob poor, destitute me? (knock on wood!) someone got worried when he heard about the robbery (and my precedent solitary late night walk to my home) and made me promise not to make that stunt again. sigh.. Men.

meanwhile, my city friends are being attacked by a much higher degree of evil, as one of them gets a surprising message in facebook by a friend of her boyfriend`s ex– girlfriend.. (take a minute to figure that out..) They were all gung– ho of why my friend requested to add her (the ex– gf of her boyfriend) as a friend, to which the act ignited a warehouse full of some really bad fireworks.. and apparently opened a can of worms. ADDING YOUR BOYFRIEND`s ex is a crime, and is non– bailable by her friends. So don't ever make such a mistake all you girls. UNLESS youre pretty SURE she (and her friends) have gotten over him already. :-)
