a beautiful day... or so it seems

flashback...

July 05..

was on my way to lunch when i passed by the AS building. There were students (i supposed) with placards. I though they were staging another rally. Their placards said: FREE HUGS. hmft.. who might that hugs be.. i assumed it was another priest or foreigner that was kidnapped. As i was nearing them, one student approached them and hugged them.. as in akap. hehe.. FREE HUGS means libreng akap pala. para tuloy gusto ko bumalik at humingi din ng akap. i mean, after all the troubling thoughts of the past few days that was something that i really would need. but then again, i just sighed and said to myself: aaawww.... that gesture is very heartwarming. well, whether they've done it for case study, project or they just wanted to. it doesn't matter. it has that overwhelmimg effect on me..

later that afternoon, i was on board Katipunan jeepney on my way home. i sat beside two korean girls. they were talking in their own language and they seemed to be having a lot of fun. when i handed my fare and said "bayad po", they said it again and again... "bayad po",, like they were practicing their tongue or something. they did again when somebody said "para po".. they would repeat it again and again: "para po" even if the driver heard it very clearly. hehe. they were cute actually. when we reached the terminal they asked me where starbucks is. when they found out that they missed it, they sort of panicked and said "para po" over and over again even though the jeepney's already not moving.. hehe

well, almost a good day isn't it? only, during this time the rain is pouring heavily already. and there's no jeepney, or fx that goes my way home. i waited for almost over an hour to board a van. by this time i was already soaking wet, very tired and so hungry...

i arrived home late of course, ate, took a shower and prepared me and my baby for bedtime.

i slept longer than usual that day...

web cam

haha.. over an hour na ko sa harap ng computer at banung bano sa web cam. hehe. ka chat ko si zandra kanina eh. at si ate shei. wala lang.

i decided that coming back to school was exciting. and dreadful... hehe. but honestly, i think i've been working hard this past few days. Well, compared to those old days... when i was still younger... attending school... i used to hang out inside libriries. not to study or to read. but to sleep. now, i am still hanging out inside libriaries. but believe it or not, i haven't slept a second! my break time seems so short for all the researches and studying to do! i still got a lot of stuff to do. to reasearch on. to read. problem set to solve. hehe. really, this getting into my system. i feel like this is what i should do. i like working with my mind. i guess i almost forgot how to that. i always do the same things when i am in the office. that is record, count, encode.. and not much of a mind excersice. but rather a daily routine of counting, recording, encoding, subtract and add that i can't seem to balance anyway. not that it's difficult. but because i can't seem to find the right and exact amount. some details were always missing. most of the files were scattered everywhere and never organized. by the end of the day, i became tired. oh, my mind too, but not because i was exercising them to be creative, or useful. but because i've had a hard time finding those files and data that i should have. now, you're going to ask me what i am talking about. well, i worked as an accounting staff. i handled online books and records, and files. now where is the fun in that? oh it's fun when you get to handle funds and budgeting, but recording them is very hard. "madugo". specially when receipts were missing. files were misplaced. or they don't really have any written report at all.

now... why did this entry school stuff turn out to be stories from work? hmpft... anyway, i got to get going. i'm late for class!
