C.L: Hey guys! Cielito Lindo here. I know I haven't finished Escaping Destiny, but this story popped into my head. I promise that I will update my other story and this one by Thanksgiving break. So this is told in Li's POV. (At least this chapter is). Uh huh. Well that is pretty much my intro and the whole I don't own Card Captor Sakura. I own an imagination that produces voices in my head. hehehe. just kidding. But seriously I do not own CCS. Continue reading....
Monday morning.
Everyone hates the thought of it. Everyone hates being in it. Everyone hates living in a world with it. But what can you do?
It was a nice summer morning. I was working as a lifeguard at one of those fancy hotels. My mother forced me to. She said something like, "You need to learn the value of money. You need to experience how to work hard." Like I really didn't know what it was like to work. Ever since I learned how to walk, she put me in martial arts training. When I learned how to read, she put me in some foreign language class.
So I am supposed to not know discipline and working hard? And this is my lesson? Did I mention that I am a seventeen-year-old boy? Did I mention that I can speak five different languages and I am currently learning my sixth? Did I even mention that I only get at least four freakin' hours of sleep a night?
Oh yeah. Did I also mention that my family owns the hotel I am working in? I get no benefits of any sort, which I don't mind or care. The staff acts all weird around me and on top of that, I have summer homework that I am currently doing. You know, the usual, Chemistry, Calculus and some Biology. I almost forgot about my Spanish homework.
Yo no tengo gozo en mi corazon. I have no joy in my heart.
So what does a seventeen-year-old do as a lifeguard? Well— we usually get a tan while trying to avoid sunburn, watch people swim all day, get ogled by other teenage girls (and senior citizens, which the thought of it scares the crap out of me), and in rare cases, perform CPR.
Yes, I am CPR certified.
No, I have not used that pick up line. You know the, "Do you know CPR? 'Cause you take my breath away".
It has been used on me.
So being a lifeguard is pretty boring. Until someone drowns, that is. Yes, I know that was mean. I apologize. I'm just really mad right now. There's no time for me to be a normal guy. I just want to hang out with friends, play video games, maybe even date a hot girl? I mean is it to much to ask fo—
Crap! Shit! Waitress chic just fell into the pool! Damn! She's not coming back up!
Sorry, but I have to do my job now. I'll continue venting later.
You know the whole spanish part. That was like a line from the spanish version of I've got the joy joy joy joy down in my heart (where?). Except I took one gozo out and added a no. The original song is: yo tengo gozo gozo en mi corazon. Yeah I was bored and not very inspired to finish my other story.
So you like? Tell me about it/ type it to me once you press the green button below. Tee hee. Thanks for reading.
