Last month, I attended a baptism and acted as "proxy" for my sister who's the real godmother of the child who is being baptized. She wasn't able to attend the baptism because she has classes to attend to.
While we were waiting for the mass to be over and for the baptism ceremony to start, we stood under a tree and noticed a bike that was parked against the tree. I laughed when I noticed the Nissan bar, which is usually found in cars and vans placed on the side of the bike. I think that it is a picture worth taking so I did, took a picture of it. Well, I asked Ate Mila, our cousin, first to pose beside the tree just to add fun with what's happening. Well, I am bored so I guess that's enough excuse. Then I took the picture. She asked me if she can see the picture and when I showed it to her, she just rolled her eyes.
Then the mass was over and we went inside the church.
So, what's the lesson that this post can have?
First, you shouldn't be attending baptisms much more act as a proxy to the real godmother when you're not even Catholic. (Well, I wasn't a Catholic then, but I am now).
Second, You should be wary about people wanting you to pose beside a tree with a bike parked in it when the person who wants to take your picture is really bored.
Third, when you agree to do so, don't ask to see the picture. Don't bother at all.
Fourth, be creative. Having an old bike shouldn't be boring. Make your imagination work, be resourceful and who knows, maybe you can pimp your ride. :D
Now, four lessons in a post isn't bad at all, right?
