explore my optimistic world

If you’d ask me how I feel today, I’ll answer that way.

From yesterday’s strenuous shooting for our music video, from the back and forth walking—NORSU to the boulevard to Freedom Park; back to NORSU to Freedom Park to the boulevard; finally ended at NORSU, I perceived in me a very weak sensation.

Supposed to be, I’ll be at school as early as 6:00 in the morning (as agreed between me and Nadine), but I never noticed (due to weariness), that it’s already 9:15 when I woke up, considering that I have class at 10:00 am.

Then my roommate told me her “stranded” story last night. That she almost cried because of the striking attack of thunder and lightning while standing alone in front of Mcdo. Thus was the reason why she slept at her bf’s house because the latter’s brother saw him while riding in a tricycle. It would be dangerous for her to walk alone that’s why she accepted the invitation. Now I knew there were many of us who were stranded because of the downpour accompanied with the frightening lightning and loud hit of thunder.

Okay that was last night. It belonged to the memories of yesterday but I have to admit that the experience frightened me especially when I walk alone in going back to the boarding for it was past 12 midnight already.

Present setting:
Because the aircon in the office is having its “day-off” (which I don’t like), therefore Nadine, Mami Rose and I chose to hang out at Lee Plaza. It served as our library as we wrote and read while staying in an air-conditioned environment.

I was reading Nicholas Sparks’ “Dear John”, but later, my eyes demanded to sleep. That was the start of the “not in earth” episode of my day. I was totally “worldless” (if there’s such a word as that). I felt like I do not exist. I knew I was surrounded with people, but I did not feel their presence. That’s why with the idea of sleeping on the table, “I don’t care!” because anyway, no one would mind that action except the food court personnel.

Mardy came and thanks to her mp, my drowsiness vanished. It proved that music can bring a person back to life. Shortly, Abigail came and we became livelier.

But stomachache struck, I need to go back to the boarding house. Honestly, I didn’t feel well since the time I escaped from bed, because last night, the rain ran after us while shooting at the boulevard and we have to secure the video cam than ourselves because the previous is not ours, it’s only borrowed.

I sensed the different “aches” of the body that’s why I wasn’t able to go with them in attending the press con of Ms. Cherrie Gil at Robinsons. I felt cold that’s why I need to wrap myself with thick blanket.

But despite this sensation, I still took a bath, went back to the office and stayed overnight. I hope this won’t lead to fever. Good luck!
