Q: Drizzle drizzle, the sound of the rain.

Updates should have occurred more often than the number of mosquitoes in my room off late, but work has decided to get ahead of my leisure hours by piling up faster than swelling mosquito bites. Ten bites into the hour, I was irritated and drops of sweat continued to form rivets, at one time seeking yet another water source—my mouth. The saltiness, humidity, and whirring buzz of those blood-suckers made a bad combination, one that would have sent me fleeing into the shower, instead I stuck fast assisting the workers laying layers of cement on the wall and along the fences. The sun wasn’t helping much either, I’d prefer it rain, except it wouldn’t do the cement any good. So I refrained from wishing for one.

The patches of mold fell off revealing a dappled grey wall sadden by the fact that it will be coated with a new color soon and this time, it won’t ever be banana yellow again. Break-ins are always a good reason to start a renovation, because I believe everyone wants to begin anew and what better way than to change the fengshui itself. While it isn’t the best thing in the world to know that your house is freely assessable to unwelcomed visitors, it is now a given that repairs need to be made and is guaranteed to complete unlike before.  

And just like that, these insecurities vanish.
Oh ho?
