Love yourself ;)

I did not attend my Art Studies 171 class today. And I have no regrets.
___________
Today I was feeling more stressed than ever. I guess all these summer work, the heat, and all that thinking (in class and about life) got into me today.

During Psych class, I kept twisting my upper body to a stretch to alleviate the back pains that I've been experiencing this past few days. "Frozen delights" nga daw, according to Sir Dioquino. When I finally decided I've had enough, I entertained the thought of cutting my Art Studies class so I could have some 'me time' today. It was quite a battle because in my three years in college, I have cut class less than ten times only. Now that I am in my senior year, it's no surprise that I am still having a hard time convincing myself that it's okay to cut classes (as long as I don't exceed the limit of 3).

I sat anxiously in the jeepney, fighting the thought of saying 'para' before the jeep reaches the Oblation and makes its way to Philcoa. To remove my worries, I decided to plan my 'me day'. First in my list was to get a back massage. Second was to watch a movie and third, eat a yummy merienda.

I ended up getting my massage which, I must say, worth cutting class for. I could hear my spine crack while the lady exerts effort on my back. After which, I decided to look around the department store without plans of buying anything. (I love fitting clothes and taking photos of it but not buying any. hahaha) The numerous rounds inside the department store made me hungry so off I walked to Jollibee for a merienda.

Energized from merienda, I headed back to the shopping area and oh my gawd, I found lots of cute shoes and baaaaags. There was one sling bag which is perfect for gimmick nights. I wanted to buy it but I haven't been going out lately so I might not be able to use it. But the other bag I found was a canvas bag which I found really pretty so even if they had no other stock, I bought the one on display. I plan to use it when we go to Ilocos! Wooohooo! Then here goes the shoes section. I saw these cute flats and decided to purchase it to replace the flats that I'd be giving to the ABAM rummage collection.

I know I spent quite a lot for my 'me time' but I love it. I was able to free my mind from all the stress, free my body from all these frozen delights, and free my pocket from some cash. HAHAHA

PHONE CALL
I got a surprise phone call from Raisia! Surprise yun kasi she said "HEEEEY ADZ! guess who?" *silence* "Uhhhh...dianne?... AY AY AY! RAISIAAAAAA!" *shrieks from both sides of the line*
hahahaha we talked for like two hours just catching up on things, reviewing funny stories from the past year, predicting the future and just plain ranting about the present.

WISDOM
I finally think I'm good at something...I just do not know what it's called. I find myself being able to make people (see the brighter side of life). omg how irritatingly redundant. But yeah, I think that's it. I can't exactly divulge specific situations but it feels really good when you know you are able to help. It makes you value your life and your friends more.
