pretty amazing grace

I planned this day to be full of things to take care of because I really need to apply for clearance, transcript and get my diploma in the university registrar. But instead of this, I am here, blogging, surfing the net, out of the office and at somebody else's home. What happened was that the offices has been canceled for the rest of the day because of the typhoon Egay.

I thank God that even though I wasn't able to do the things I planned to do, I have time to rest as well.. I've been really stressed the past months and there hasn't been enough time to rest. Although I sleep every night, there's always the thought that tomorrow I will be waking up early again because I have to prepare myself for another workday. So this is really a long weekend for me. Friday to Monday since Monday is a holiday and the Madam President declared no office and no school. I just hope that I can really use this time to refresh and replenish whatever I've overused the past months of my life.

Actually, I'm still thinking how to spend my long weekend in a way that I would really be nourished when Tuesday comes. Hmm... I was hoping ideas would pop-up in my head before it's too late so there's also time for preparation and all (if necessary). I thought of going to Sorsogon but I guess this is not a good time for that, anyway, my mother is supposed to come here hopefully next week for her check-up and medications. So that option has already been dealt with. I'll just wait for my mother here. And go to the province this Christmas? No accurate plans yet, but I know I will be in my hometown this Christmas break, because I wasn't able to go last year.

I've been listening to alternatives right now. Kind of Coldplay, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Sting, even Bob Marley, U2 and Eraserheads. Derf is sleeping and this is his lullabye, so I guess I have no choice but to play it, and I'm kinda liking it anyways. Perks up my mood. So much for a lullabye. We're here at Ate Flor's. The original plan is to just leave here the laptop and some of out things and then go to the registrar. But (thank God I called first) I was told that classes (and offices) has already been suspended. So we just stayed here. Me doing the one thing I love, blogging and well surfing the net, and him, sleeping. Shhh... And Vangie sipping a cup of coffee.. Very enticing. Maybe later, I'll make myself a cup. Great, so now I can't seem to last the day without a cup of coffee? Tsk, tsk... It's becoming a habit now. But they say coffee is good. On moderation. Is one cup a day still on moderation? I think so, I hope so.

Anyway, it's now time to play SIMS.. Haha!
