A GLIMPSE OF MY LIFE

My alarm goes off at 5:30 a.m. It’s hard to wake up so early as my bed is still pulling me closer, but I need to get out of bed as I have my class, my last face-to-face class before academic health break, or should I say the Undas. Honestly, I am a night owl. I’m not into mornings, but I love sunrise and of course, the smell of brewing coffee which makes my day much better. I’m at my apartment when I have my in-person class usually, I clean first every Wednesday before preparing for school. So, I start my day one by cleaning the apartment as I hate an unorganized and messy place. Well, this is my home. A second home that made me independent and gave me freedom in every aspect of life, such as making decisions and doing what I want. It's always been a commuter's life. Well, I can say that this is a wheel of success. No matter how hassle and hard it is doing this day to day routine just to go to school, this is part of the process. A process that can lead me to a destination of s...

  This kind of morning is what I am waking up for. After I ate my breakfast and had my coffee, I made sure to go to our farm, where I saw my grandmother cleaning an area. I miss this place so much. I miss the fresh air, the wind that ripples through my clothes, and touching my skin. I’m home! I’m at peace. It was my online class today for two subjects. It’s like an in-person class, so exhausting. Imagine for the whole three to six hours you just need to focus, look, and listen on your laptop virtually. Everything has been so draining for me lately, so I know I deserve a break for a while. After my online classes, I am doing all the activities and assignments for me to have all the long weekend without thinking about the deadlines or submissions. Unending schoolwork is fulfilling when everything is finished. Say hi to the brain, but there is nothing in my brain anymore. My mind is now in rest mode.

  I visited the Lubao bamboo hub and eco-park today with my cousins. We decided to go out as we will going to clean our family mausoleum in the cemetery after this. Going back, this place has only a 20 pesos entrance fee, which is very affordable. I love the vibes that the bamboo trees giving, its sounds whenever winds blowing them is like a heaven on my ears. Nature is my therapy. These are some of my favorite spots here in eco-park. This is so relaxing and refreshing. I really love the vibe that it gives me. Eating some snacks here with good company is what I just need after a very tiring week of mine. Chill spot? This is the best spot for me. You’re not just looking at the bamboos here, you can also try to ride a boat here at a very affordable price. The silence of being here on the riverside is everything. You will just hear the bamboos and the water and watch the sunset. Well, I love sunsets. I love everything about nature. This is my safe place, my therapy, and what I am look...
