I was going down to where I park my car (actually my uncle’s car) to get the parking ticket. Usually, during Sunday evening, I give Manong Guard P25 and then get the ticket at around 5:00 AM the following morning because the “Ate” the parking girl would be coming in at 6:00 AM.
Anyway, I get in the elevator to the ground floor. Bleary eyed, I look at the elevator mirror to see if I have any “eye crusts”. Then, I noticed a single white hair on my mustache. DAYUM! Am I getting that old? I haven’t shaved my mustache in a while, so it was sticking out at an angle looking like an odd ball with the rest of the black hairs.
I checked it out again as I was going up to our floor, and what do you know, another little white hair is on its way. DOUBLE DAYM! Here in the Philippines, when others see a white hair on you they would say, “Tumatanda ka na”. I don’t wanna hear that. Gotta shave more often.
