Good day, guys!

Before sleeping I asked my friend if I could hitch a ride again for the last time, I said last because my schedule every Sunday would change already. I also got to speak with my girlfriend before sleeping. I slept at around 2 am in the morning, it was the very first time that my roommate sleep ahead of me.

I woke up at around 6:45 to get ready. And did everything that I had to do. Walked outside of the building, waiting for my friend. I noticed that the leaves of the palm trees are glowing, they looked dead before.

Met up with my friend and her boyfriend accompanied her to say goodbye. We then took a taxi going to the metro station, thankfully the driver knew where to go and it was a really smooth ride. Got to the metro station and we were just catching up because we haven't spoken in a while. Though our talk was cut short because I had to go down to the next station. It was nice catching up.

At the metro station, while waiting for the bus to come, my usual routine is to go and sit on the chairs provided just looking at the sign, and when it hits around 3 minutes I leave the chair and wait for the bus outside shaded area. The only thing that I hate about bus timings is that most of the time there are delays. While I was on my way to work, something out of the blue happened, I was able to see an accident while going to our workplace. I hope that no one was harmed during the accident.

I got to work at exactly 9 am. I was waiting for my 9:15 patient but he rescheduled to the afternoon. I was waiting for my next patients and they were a couple. I opened my blinds waiting for them, and they were kinda late. But when I was treating them, I was kinda touched because they were jokingly saying that if ever they transfer to a different country they would want to kidnap me hahaha, it was my very first time to hear something like that. It just felt really nice coming from a patient. Then I treated 2 Filipinos and an Indian lady. I was able to rest at around 3 pm for my lunch break. We were just talking with my colleagues. I was surprised that the mango tree beside the place where we stayed had a lot of fruits, though we usually ask the caretaker if it's okay if we could get some.

After lunch, I was just waiting for my patient who was a patient from the UK. Then my next patient was also from the UK, it was nice talking with them and asking for their insights.

I was supposed to leave at around 6 pm then my doctor called me if I could start one of his patients so I had no choice but to do it. I finished around 6:20 pm then I'm really thankful that I didn't have to wait too long for the bus. I went to the metro station and that made me realize that was a really stupid love to do, because every Sunday, there's no feeder bus that goes to our place which makes it really difficult to ride public transportation. While I was waiting for the bus, I was already regretting the decision that I really made. I should have just stayed on the first bus that I did and then transferred to another bus that would go to our place. But I had to wait for 30 minutes before the bus came. When the bus was there I was really lucky that I was one of the people who were able to get inside because the bus was really full. That's the sad reality when it comes to Sunday. There are a lot of people who want to go home but there's a lack of transportation. So there would be a contest to be able to get onto the bus. Luckily I was one of the first people who were able to enter the bus and secure a seat. That's the problem that we are currently facing, there are a lot of people who want to go home but there's a lack of communication.

When I got home, I was greeted by my friend and my other flatmates because they were busy preparing dinner. I just fixed up and spoke with them. After a while, we started to eat dinner. We had a lot of food and the staple was mainly pork, I got really full eating a lot. We were drinking whiskey and some beer while watching some NBA games.

We were first watching on the TV until the women wanted to do some karaoke to everything exchanged. We were forced to watch on the laptop whole and listen to them sing. It was actually a fun night and I could even feel my drunkenness while typing everything. I only drank today because we have a 3-day break. I hope everything is well with you have a great week and month ahead! Keep safe always!
