BUTCH-ing

Wala si HE for Father's Day.

So, to get me out of the insanity of alone-ness I decided to do some carpentry.

Very butch of ME.

Besides, I really needed to organize my school stuff. My exam keys are with attendance sheets and course outlines and some literary porn...

Hehehe...

Hindi naman ako nag-ilusyon ng malaki - I just got a DIY shelf kit from Landmark. They offered to put it together there pero sabi ko kaya ko na. It looked easy kasi - I mean how hard can it be to screw eight screws in two wooden planks?

I soon found out it was 'dang HARD!

First, I did an audit on the materials - kompleto naman lahat.
And yes, that's how hairy my legs are. Hehehe
Next, screw the screws.
HE took his tool kit with him so I was left to use a  pair of scissors.
I swear HIS tool kit is more important to him than his phone.
Feeling ko nga kung masusunugan kami (knock on wood), ito ang una niyang ilalabas ng bahay.

Yan yung almost finished product. You see the screws?
They're not entirely dug as they're supposed to because the scissors
I used were not really meant for screwing. It was so frustrating! 

Dahil sobrang nakaka-inis na hindi ko ma-DO-IT-YOURSELF yung pesteng book shelves, I actually went out and looked for a karpentero sa mga kapitbahay. Unluckily, wala akong nahanap - asa ako di ba?


So what I did is I hailed a cab and went back to Landmark so they could do the DIY for themselves.

Yan na - hahahaha. Since andun na din ako, binili ko na din yung red.
Natatawa na alng sa akin yung nag-assist.

LESSON: I know very well that i'm not the handyman guy so i'll not attempt it next time. Hahaha.

Baw.
