life and saturdays...

There are days when you don’t have anything to do at all and there are days when there are too many activities or gimmicks that you want to accommodate them all. How come there’s no balance at all?

Of all the previous Saturdays that I did not have much to do and I did not have to go to work, this Saturday proved to be an ultimate disappointment. First, it was frat night, second, a friend who I haven’t seen for almost 3 years asked if we could have coffee and catch up. Another friend was going to godskitchen but I’m not into house music so that didn’t count, I wouldn’t go even if I were free. Hehehe… chill? I don’t chill, I like it hot. =)

Then, Saturday morning after my Friday night work, my sister and her baby went to my apartment. My nephew is just too cute to resist so we played even if I haven’t slept the day. Then my sister asked me to go to the mall since there’s a big sale, so we went to the mall. After an hour or two, we went back to the apartment. My nephew is too heavy to carry and we got so tired so we decided it’s time for the baby’s nap… But he wasn’t ready for sleep yet. He wanted to play. I was so sleepy but he’s too adorable… For today I only slept for 2hours… When I woke up, I felt that there were a lot of things to do but I didn’t have the time.

So I decided to be responsible and go to work first, I was at the office while texting my friends who were already at the frat party. They were asking what time I will be there. I felt that I would miss a lot if I don’t get to at least see the happening so I left the office and went to the frat party. On my way, I was so excited… The last time I was in a sorority or fraternity party has been hmnn… a long time ago that I can’t even remember. When I arrived at the party, there was no more food and everybody is drinking. I cannot drink so I had coffee. I saw a lot of drunkards around the party and saw a lot of my college brods and sisses who I have not seen in ages. I sent my greetings, hugs to the people I know, I sat on the table with old friends and joked around while I was drinking “coffee”. I think that was a first. The first time I was talking to these friends of mine and I was holding a cup of coffee instead of a bottle of beer or a shot of whatever.

After 1 hour, I went back to the office. Was it worth it? Yes, definitely. I wish I don’t work Saturdays because all the happenings happen either on a Friday or a Saturday right so I can give up on Fridays but can I at least be spared with Saturday? Too bad I did not have any more time to meet kat and have coffee…

Well, it’s a Sunday morning and I’m still at work trying very hard to keep my eyes open. Saturdays are a bore when you’re inside the office working instead of drinking and having fun hanging out with your friends.

After 5 days of hard work or rather boring work, I like looking forward to a Saturday but now because of my new schedule I have to look forward on Sundays which most people dread because it means they work the next day. Whew… Tough Crowd.
