Don't leave fun girls in a workplace where there's plenty of idle time. Chances are, they'll eventually come up with a hilarious topic. That's what happened to us when we reported for work yesterday and found out that we had some connection problems. Ugh! Do I hear Yipee?!
Vee, Maica, Hazel, Daphne, Kimber, Cheryl and I went on an endless chat that started with Maica's high school experience about having difficulties praying "Hail Mary" in Tagalog. When we figured out what "Holy Mary" is in Tagalog, we started reciting some Catholic prayers in Tagalog. Only to find out that it was an absurd idea because we don't even know how to translate "Hail, Holy Queen".
Then we tried to evaluate ourselves if we would pass St. Peter's interrogations and if there was a chance that any of us would be allowed to enter heaven in our after-life. And so we started with the first checklist: The Seven Deadly Sins:
1.) Greed - Excessive desire to acquire or possess more (especially more material wealth) than one needs.
2.) Sloth - Apathy and inactivity in the practice of virtue (in other words, laziness)
3.) Gluttony - Eating or drinking in excess
4.) Wrath - Belligerence aroused by a real or supposed wrong (also, intense anger)
5.) Envy - Spite and resentment at seeing the success of another and a feeling of grudging admiration and desire to have something that is possessed by another (jealousy included in this category)
6.) Pride - Unreasonable and inordinate self-esteem
7.) Lust - Self-indulgent sexual desire
We found out that all of us have committed the seven deadly sins if to count not only the act itself but also those that we have committed in thoughts.
Coincidentally, there were also seven of us. So, I suggested that each of us pick something that we think is the sin that we mostly commit. Maica picked Gluttony, Daphne -- Wrath, Hazel -- Envy, Kim -- Pride, Cheryl -- Lust (we actually volunteered it for her), I picked Sloth and Veeya -- who was supposed to pick Greed (coz that's what's left for her to choose), we unanimously decided that she is our Queen Bee -- the mother of all queens of deadly sins! Hahaha!
We sure had a lot of fun as we continued to evaluate ourselves by using another instrument to gauge our sinfulness -- the 10 Commandments! Well, I'll tell you about it next post. I just realized that I'm supposed to be asleep now. It's almost 2am now. Hahaha!
