Day 14: Your Day, In Great Detail

A day starts from midnight, right? Well then let me start off from 12AM. Around that time, I was busy typing a short group reflection for my community service, Kapit Bisig Para Sa Ilog Pasig. I just made guesses and stuff like that since I didn’t remember much from that service other than the cleanup and building of trash bins. After I finished the essay, I started working on the video compilation of the photos I took that day. I got kind of lazy when I couldn’t think of any song to put as background music, so I started reading The Kissing Booth on Wattpad. I stopped when I saw that it was almost 3AM. I’m afraid of the devil’s hour (yes, I believe in stuff like that) so I jumped onto the sofa as soon as the lights were off. I got kind of freaked out when I started seeing things in the dark (I have no idea if I actually saw something or if it was just me being paranoid) so I kept telling myself to keep my eyes closed no matter what until the weird feeling was gone.

Eventually I fell asleep, and I woke up around 7AM to the sound of my cellphone ringing. I got up and opened my laptop for a while so that I could connect to the internet before I took a shower. I took a REALLY hot shower, which is why it took me a while to get out, since I found the hot water very relaxing. Eventually I got myself to leave the shower and I got dressed. As I let my hair dry, I used my laptop and printed out the reservation ticket for the Gervacio Cup (a contest from Math Circle). Then I went to school to meet with one of my friends since she had the pre-acts for that event. Once I got the papers, I went to SJ browns for a bit so that I could photocopy the project proposal and organize the papers. I dropped by the CSO office to have the papers approved, then I went to visit the booth for the Gervacio Cup. Then I decided to stop by the Psychology Lab for a bit for an experiment, and I got some chocolate cream Oreos as a prize. I went back to the booth and waited around until it was around 9:30.

When my friends were dismissed from their class, I was waiting outside. As they walked by, I chased them and followed them to Agno. I took a seat and watched them eat as I munched on my last Oreo cookie. After they ate, we headed to my condo. As the guys went straight for my Wii, I went to my bed and started working on the photo compilation I should have done the night before. When I finished adding music and burning the videos onto a CD, we left to go back to Andrew building for our next class. We took the stairs up to the 9th floor, and then I went up to sit on the edge of the window. I was all emo and stuff for a few minutes until I got bored and started walking around the room. Kuya Mario had just arrived, so I ran to poke him in the tummy. Our prof suddenly came in, so we all took our seats. He discussed the principle of double effect, which I had already studied when I was in third year high school. After that class, another friend of mine was waiting outside of the classroom for me to sign a paper for the financial audit of my project in Math Circle. Then I went down the stairs and headed back to La Salle.

I stopped by the booth again and ended up staying for a while. I was getting a little lazy, and I didn’t wanna go to class. Eventually my friends convinced me otherwise, and I got inside the room right as the attendance sheet was being passed around. For the first time in a very long time I actually took down notes again. I really needed to pull my grades up, especially after my horrible third quiz. My hand hurt really bad afterwards, but it’s gonna be all worth it in the end, I hope. After class, I went back to my condo to find my friends playing on the Wii again. I watched them play for a while until a few of them had to go home. I went along with them since I still needed to go back to school to pass the CD and paper for the community service thing and also to pick up the pre-acts that I dropped off earlier. When I was heading back to my condo, I realized that it started raining, right when I left my jacket at the condo since I told myself I wouldn’t be long. So I ran in the rain back to my condo. The wind was pretty strong, and my hair got in a mess because of it. When I got back to the condo, I played a bit until Kuya Mario called me and asked me if I wanted to eat. He said that he would treat me so I went downstairs right away. We ate at Adobo Connection and at around 5:30 I left to go back to my condo to wait for another friend of mine so that we could go to Cluster.

A few minutes after 6 we left. My umbrella broke while we were walking, so I just walked with my hood on. Before we started, I talked with one of my friends there about her academics. We talked about profs for a bit, then she asked me about physics. I mentioned that we had an assignment in physics where we had to go to an amusement park and take pictures while on rides. The topic spread and everyone at the table started sharing their experiences with amusement parks and rides. We even talked about having an outing to Star City during our “term break” (which is only 3 days long). After a while, we started the discussion on Fellowship. By the time we finished, the rain was getting pretty hard outside, so someone dropped us of at the condo. I went home and told my high school friend Paolo to come over. After a while, I told my blockmate Paolo (yes, there are two Paolo’s) to come over too so that we could play Minecraft. We played for a bit, and they even decided to ‘play a little game’ with me, like putting me on a platform over a lava pool and setting my game mode to adventure, and putting me in a high place and having me TRY to fall into a 2x2 pool of water.

So that’s pretty much it. Was that detailed enough?
