THE SATURATED SKY

Yesterday, I "cooked "Pancit Canton for Jonathan and baked cookies for Jomo! Well, yes...baked...but before anyone turns all oh-wow!-I-didn't-know-she-can-bake! on me, I think the world has the right to know that it was just an instant one-step cookie dough mix; one of those that needs only a fittingly amount of water and the rest of it just turns out perfectly naturally. Through this, I have discovered a new passion---cooking instant food. Haha! Well, it isn't exactly one of those passions that often yield to big ambitions; but hey, it's still something, right? I am beginning to love it when my brother asks me to make him  pancakes. I consider beating pancake mix in a bowl very blissful now.  Ahaha, I hope I'm not being too weird.

Nothing much has been happening in my summer. The sheer possibility of me, sand on my barefeet, and the beautiful sun together in one scenario seems very unlikely this summer. For one, I have understood indirectly from my mom's words that our money allocation for luxury this summer had already been spent for our out-of-the country trip last Holy Week. So that clearly means any bookings for beach resorts is momentarily far-fetched. Then, almost everyone in my barkada is either taking advance summer classes (as for Syndy and Genny) or having OJTs (as for Shiene, SheShe, Camille and Irma) or temporary jobs (as for Andee). So basically and unfortunately, I'm left to just sulk at home---alone. For a moment, a little out of envy of my working friends and a little out of impulsive tendencies, I thought of finding an OJT or a job for myself; though even before the summer started, I already kept firm with my decision to refrain from doing any because I really need the rest. Sometimes, I'll go all panicky and whimper to myself as to why I didn't bother to prepare for application for work (or didn't bother to even make a resume!) before the semester ended. However, it'll only take a while for me to collect myself from the sudden panic and put my thinking into perpective again and reconfirm to myself that I am refraining from doing any exhausting activity this summer so as to regain all the physical energy, mental power, confidence and source of inspiration that have all been somewhat lost from the fires of hell of the last semester. Plus, I can use all the free time I have this summer for preparing for my thesis. Thesis!!! *shakes from terror* Oh, oh...I hope everything goes well for my thesis! Okay, oh well. When I tried whining to Andee about me being the only one left among us with no job whatsoever, she told me I need the break. And I know she's right. That's because I also know that once school starts again, I'll be saying goodbye to comfort and rest again. My bed will mostly be untouched again because of the sleepless nights.  So I'm going to spend all the quality time with my bed while I can! While it's still summer, my bed and I will be inseparable. Ehehehe.
