Happy Father’s Day!

I know it’s late. There is no excuse for this because I knew that I can still write something on the day itself but I didn’t for the simple reason that I don’t know what to write.

I’m sorry for being such an idiot to assume that Father’s Day is on June 7. I thought it was on the first Sunday of June. Well, I’m really mistaken. It’s evident when I instructed my little sister to give the card on that day to my dad because I couldn’t give it myself because I was out in the house.

My dad was laughing according to my sister when he received the card because he knew for himself that it wasn’t until the 3^rd week of June to celebrate this event, that’s June 21 to be exact.

Actually, I’m wondering on that Sunday why there are no advertisements on TV for Father’s Day and no articles about it on the Sunday paper.

To make the long story short, I’m just such a moron to assume something I wasn’t sure about. Yes, indeed I’m guilty of this many times already.

To save myself from the shame, I just wanted to tell everyone that we should not just celebrate this occasion on this day only, because we should definitely commemorate it every day or should I say let our father know that we really care for them even if it was really cheesy to say. I am really blessed with a father who is responsible and dependable. He instilled in me the values that I needed to be what I am right now.

I knew of course that he is no saint. He has flaws, many flaws. But this doesn’t mean that I will not respect him. Yes, I knew that there are people who are not blessed to have a father like me. What I can only say is I’m really thankful to God that we have him. I’m not the best son a father or parents can have but I tried my best to live up to the values that they taught us.

Well, this is my short write-up for this day. As for the encounter with the bug, continue reading on the next article.
