The Sleepover

Back in high school, my friends and I spent one summer-overnight up in the mountains. Since one of my friends owned a farm and a house there, we wanted to have a bonding session away from home plus experience different kinds of summer activities. It was technically our first time spending the break out of town together with some farm animals and a different kind of weather. It was also our chance to have fun roasting hotdogs and marshmallows in a bonfire and to stargaze before going to sleep.

The experience was great, and soon after, we found ourselves spending the sembreak in that same farmhouse the year after.

One afternoon by the piano


Around a week ago, I, together with my sister and a friend, was in a mall and by the new wing of restaurants where there was a piano, to play some songs while it was vacant. You see, the area would be usually flooded with music enthusiasts and pianists since it was the only public piano in that mall, so while we were there we chanced upon the place while not much people were around. That time, we met a man, probably on his late 50s (since he told me through our course of conversation that he was already retiring). He saw our tiny 'jamming' session and approached us, noticing that we weren't using the piano chair. We explained that it was starting to break so we decided not to use it instead, and this was where our conversation started.

Summer Sky

Looks like someone's been enjoying the summer break for too long.

At last, I finally have something to post once again. Just a few hours ago I went outside to take some pictures of the sky, one of my favorite hobbies. I initially wanted to see the partial lunar eclipse that was supposedly today (or tonight for that matter) but I misread the date and went outside "too early".

Well, so much for that, here they are.

Faces of Hell Month

Hello, everyone!

It's been a long month since my last post. What happened to me? Hell month happened.

Because of finals and deadlines fast approaching, March became a toxic and stressful month for us students. You had exams falling on the same day, papers and group paper deadlines here and there, reports and class outputs to submit, and for the graduating students, thesis defense and last academic requirements to finish the sem. Plus, you had finals and submissions to deal with after the Holy Week holidays. Luckily though, all my workload was due before the Holy Week break so I basically started summer early.

Unexpected rains

Because of the hot weather and sunny days during the past few weeks, I decided to bring a camera to school one day to get some ideas for my next entry. I thought it'd be nice to spend some time taking pictures of anything outdoor-related.

At 12:45 am,

I tried to enter the bedroom as quietly as I could. This was the nth time I crammed and finished school work late again. I had to open the door slowly and not too wide so it wouldn't creak. It didn't matter if I had to squeeze myself through a small space just to secretly get in; if anyone heard me coming in the room so late at night, it would mean deep trouble for me.

I successfully entered and made my way to the bathroom. I closed the door behind me before switching on the lights. I had to make sure no light would get to the bedroom; I stayed with light sleepers you see, so any form of disturbance would wake them up. I quickly got ready for bed, quietly turned off the lights, exited the bathroom, and made my way to the bed.

The room was very dark.
