Worryless life

College life is where you don't have to worry about anything, from notebooks, to paper, school bag, pencil, and other stuffs for school. Unlike elementary and high school, things must be prepared on the very first day of school. That's what the parents do for their kids who are to study. Why I know about this, it's because I been through all that back in the days.

Now that I am in college, studying alone, I don't seems to worry about things. In 1 week, school will start, and I haven't even bought any stuffs for school. Not that I don't have money to buy those, it is just that I don't really feel like I am in need of getting those right away. It's funny sometimes, other college students go to school without bringing any paper with them or even notebooks. I myself make always sure I bring eveything I might needed in school. The reason why I haven't gotten anything yet is because, school may be starting already, but in the first week, not much is going on. It's going to be a week more or so, before the classes will be properly arranged.

Last day of Fiesta

Yesterday was a blast! We celebrated the last day of Fiesta with my cousins. We has lots of food and drinks. I bought four cases of Red Horse Beer for us. When drunk, I came up with the crazy idea to hide our alcohol behind the dried banana leaves, so that nobody would know we were drunk and nobody would ask us for more beer. It was only a joke though. People in the province seldomly drink Red Horse, because it is kind of expensive. Most people here go for the cheaper alcohol.

But I wasn't the only one who spent money for alcohol yesterday. Everybody did. We were only five people and we were really drunken at the end, so, for the last case that we had, we decided to give some to the other people who walked by us. The Fiesta this June was definitely fun. Though most got drunk, it was all good because nobody started to fight. People yesterday were all enjoying the Fiesta.

Travelling makes you smart

Travelling gives you lots of experiences and changes your viewpoint. It makes you smart and mature, because you can see beyond the scope of your little province life. I had been to two counties already, but that doesn't mean I'd stop travelling whenever I can. If there's another opportunity for me to travel, I'd surely grab it. Traveling is expensive, but it is a once in a lifetime opportunity to learn the world. Grab every opportunity, never let go of it, or you will later regret it.

There is the time of travelling and the time after travelling. Only after the travel, you learn how rich you are now with the new experiences. When I was still on the trip, I never appreciated how amazing it is being in a country. The first time I traveled, I was very tense and confused with so many strange impressions. I felt like in a movie, not in the real world, and I was not as relaxed as I should have been. Now, since the day I arrived back in the Philippines, my experiences during my travel are always in my mind. There is no day without thinking I had already been in other countries. Isn't that amazing? I am grateful for getting invited to the two trips. It will always stay in my memories.

Dreams

When I was little, my only dream was to have nice dresses on Christmas, and more toys to play with on birthdays. Being from a poor family, that was often an unreachable dream for me as little kid. But even though I did not get what I wanted, I still ended up happy with the toys that I had. My father is just a farmer, and my mother is just a housewife who took care of everything in the house. Therefore we never had lots of money. We had enough food to eat, but we were not well provided with other nice things that every small kids wanted to have. But I cannot complain! I was just a child who was happy with anything.

As I get older, my dreams change. I have now more ambitions. First, I want to finish my education. That's my most important dream. When it comes to gadgets, I am still like a little girl who wants unreachable things, like the best smartphone, the best TV, etc. It is not anymore about toys, but about the modern products of daily life that only rich people can afford. Well, I am not rich. But they said dreaming is not bad: you can dream big, and it is up to you if you'll make it happen. If you are a person with a good strategy and motivation, then you'll succeed. 

Prayer For Marawi

I am sad for what happens in Marawi. The Maute group of terrorists have attacked the city Marawi on Mindanao. I do not understand why. What this terrorist group does seems not logical and seems not to have any purpose. It is just a random insane act of terrorism. So many died already in just a week, most of the dead are innocent victims. Nobody understands why they are doing this. This is crazy.

Those people who died are gone forever. It is so sad that they had to die like that. I pray for their soul, and I hope the killings in Marawi will stop soon. I pity for the small kids who are trapped on this war. They are just kids, they don't deserve anything like that. I wishes everyone out there nothing but their safety, that's all I can do for all of them. We are all praying!

Sleep

Good morning everyone! Hope you all are having a fantastic day! I feel great, becayse I had a good night sleep. I am a sleep person: when I have enough sleep, I am happy, when not then I am usually in bad mood.

Having enough sleep is very important to our daily lives. We are more stronger, we are more dedicated to what we do, and most of all we are hard to quit onto something difficult when we are energetic. Healthy eating is also important, without eating on time, and not drinking enough water a day a person can become weaker no matter how long we sleep. 8 hours of sleep is the maximum hours of sleep for each of us, most of us even sleep longer than 8 hours, others never get to sleep enough due to working routine. But with healthy food to eat, it helps us regain enough energy until the rest of the day.

Wrong timing

Yesterday, I went to Tacloban until this afternoon, now I am back home. I feel tired, while I am writing this, my eyes feel like closing. The 3 hours trip isn't so bad, as I get used to travel between Tacloban and Borongan, still today I am tired.

I went to Tacloban to pay my apartment rent and to get a new phone. That is, I was hoping to get a new phone via postal package, but it didn't arrive yet. My old phone is not good anymore, hence I need this new phone urgently. I waited until this afternoon for the delivery man to call me. But to my surprise I didn't get any call. So, I left my ID at my landlady so she will be able to receive the item for me. I hope when I come back next time, the cellphone is there.

My old phone was a Samsung, and it is sad it is broken. Of course I cannot afford yet another expensive phone, so I am getting an inexpensive Cherry Mobile phone. I never had one of this brand, but I am excited to see whether it is good enough for me. If not, well, then I will start saving for an expensive phone again. That's life!
