I woke up today feeling this would be a really good day, and for me, it was! Though it wasn’t really a blast. It was still a great day for me.

When I got up from my bed, I immediately went to the bathroom and prepared for my review session this afternoon. It is very important that I come on time today since we rarely have coaching sessions. However, I had to go to Western Union to do a favor for a friend.

I have scheduled a meet-up with a friend at 4PM today so I hurried up with my coaching session and was able to finish all six booklets in one go. When I went back to the dorm, I fell asleep and upon knowing that my friend had fallen asleep, too and that he would be late for our meet-up, I decided to rest first before going to SM North.

It was past six when John told me he’s already in SM North, while I was still stuck in a street jam at G. Araneta Avenue. He waited for an hour and I was finally able to meet him. John and I have known each other for a year or two. We go to the same church locale whenever I return to Olongapo City. And so, I told him I was very hungry so we grabbed a bite at Sisig Hooray! at the SM Foodcourt. Though I was willing to take him at a better food place, my craving for sisig ruled everything out. Good thing, he’s okay with it.

We went to the cinemas but we found out that Enteng ng Ina Mo was shown early half of the day, we went to Timezone instead and I sang three songs. Gawd. I really want to sing those songs so he wasn’t able to stop me! Then, he told me he needs rest and so we went back at the dormitory so he can go sleep and he will be very busy the next day.

We ended up talking our night away to sleep. I told him he was jinxed because when he visited, it was the only time the dormitory internet was down. When we landed our feet at the dormitory, he wanted to surf the internet right away! It was kind of cute seeing him experience new things. He told me it was his first time to go to Sampaloc, and he felt glad he saw FEU, UST and UE-Manila during our side trip. It was also his first time to go to Trinoma!

It was cool for me, in the sense that, I have a new friend to whom I can talk a lot of things to. And I know that I can trust him, too. So I know we’ll be good friends for a long time. I certainly hope so.
