WHAT THE FUTURE HOLDS

If me and Kim had a baby, would it look like this? Actually this is Kim's niece as her brother came out to visit recently, but being that she is so dark skinned, when we were walking around the mall, most people thought, for sure, it was me and Kim's baby. Unfortunately, all is not bliss with the surprise visitors. Her brother came out here to find work, but not yet having it, Kim felt she must take care of him. Sadly only Kim believed this.

Kim is the type to sacrifice herself and put her family first even if everyone else says she is wrong. Her brother is older and a man after all. Because of this she has brought on herself undue stress. She's not eating well or sleeping well. She's getting thin. She's spacing at work, which has led to her getting a number of violations on her record. She spacing in school, which is leading to falling grades. She even spaced somewhere, probably on public transportation, and lost her wallet, and her money for tuition etc. And because everyone believes she is wrong to sacrifice so much for her family, they won't help her. Her other brother, who has always given her money, would not do it this time. Her auntie, who has always taken care of her, won't do it. The last person left to help her is Kris Aika. I hope she doesn't ever piss Aika off. Aika is really her angel.



We had a mother cat go into our attic some time ago and deliver a bunch of kittens. As they grew they began to make a lot of noise up there. Luckily as they grew and could move around, she brought them down and they began to live in some cardboard boxes in our carport. They also, unfortunately, like to hide under the car. What this means is when they hear a noise, or something scares them, they run under the car. The problem is, what if that noise is the car? Two of them have been killed already. We believe some of the neighbors have taken some of the other cuter kittens leaving the jet black babies behind. Now only the mother and one black kitten remain. They now stay on some duffle bags outside my window.

It's good to have money. You may remember the old days in Cebu City last year when struggle was the order of the day. Things are by no means perfect, but my business endeavors are doing well. I'm relaxed and having fun. I'm almost finished with a cartoon gig for a Chinese studio, one which the Chinese government is quite interested in. This may be what leads to my trip to China. I also got a decent payday from some stuff I made and sold in Japan. Finally, I started doing training videos to teach others what I know and the first one went over quite well and even created a bit of a buzz. One customer says people are hungry for this stuff and that I'm the only one who seems to ask people what they want. He said if I follow that crowd and deliver what they want I'll be bale to retire soon. He believes that many people are craving the knowledge.

We'll see what the future holds. Right now I am just slowly walking to it. Whatever is around that corner, I am sure will be an adventure!
