rest
i was glad that i had a chance to go on leave, even if it was for three days only. especially after my staff conference. hay pagod! i was able to sleep, sleep, and sleep. i also had a chance to watch a lot of tv, especially the news and pester my neice. on the last day of my leave, i was able to spend the afternoon at my favorite place in all of metro manila, UP diliman. yeah, yeah, it’s like, kapit bahay ko sya. but it is not that often that i have the time to sit around the sunken garden and watch people going around the campus. it was such a treat, high school students were going around the campus, looking for their testing rooms for the UPCAT. you can see the usual signs posted around the campus for the directions. has it been that long since i took UPCAT. i smile upon their eager faces as they asked me where they would find this and that building. also, i love hanging out in the campus when it is a lot less populated, like sunday afternoons and school holidays. it really made me miss my carefree college days. hay, if i can just go back. but i cannot, it wouldn’t be the same, i guess. i can just smile at those memories and continue my aimless wandering. i ended up going to my favorite spot, the track oval behind the bahay ng alumni. it’s the perfect place to watch the sun set. it has this calming effect on me.
there are a lot of better places where i could have spent those three days but it’s enough for me, for now. until my next BRP session.
