The Man Who Seldom Sleeps

Tuesday morning:

Mum woke me up at 8 AM. I had my sleep at the living room with my T-square, triangles, technical pens, and tracing papers. I am in a rush doing my plates for my CE132L course. (That course was intended only for planning and drawing the structural details of a two-storey building.

It was in the wee hours of Tuesday, I am staying late (from Monday evening) to working too early (Tuesday morning). The twist in the story was; by 9 AM the floor plan, four elevations, foundation plan, doors and windows sked, beam detail and sked, and slab are due for checking.

At that moment I was still planning the Elevation. Though I am not yet done with my work I slept by 5 AM and be awake at 8. I got so tired that I didn't notice that I was able to sleep in the sofa right at the living room.

At that moment I was still planning the Elevation. Though I am not yet done with my work I slept by 5 AM and be awake at 8. I got so tired that I didn't notice that I was able to sleep in the sofa right at the living room.

It was 7:30 when my Mum tried to wake me up.

Mama: "Wake Up! You have classes today? At what time?"

(Gising na. Wala ka bang pasok? Anong oras ba klase mo?)

I: (I was stretching my arms) "2.8 Mum." (2.8 po ma)

I was half-awake by then so I didn't even understand what the hell was going on.

Mum: (asked the same question) (inulit ang tanong)
Ako: "I said 2.8." (2.8 nga  po ma.)

At 8:30 Am, after realizing that I might arrive late, I rose even my eyes were still swollen and hefty.

Just before I took my bus off to school, my elder brother told me the story. I was ashamed of what I did. (Haha) I was dumbfounded at that time while my big bro was laughing and mocking at me incessantly. That's the way I knew my story. (LOL) (Kinuwento ng kuya ko. Hiyang-hiya ako habang siya ay tawa ng tawa. Dun ko na lang nalaman.)

ENDING: Our prof was absent that day. He attended a meeting at the main campus. (Wala si Prof. May meeting sa main campus. Ayun. Sayang ang pinagpuyatang kahihiyan.)

EPIC FAIL. XD


P.S: The 2.8 there was the height of my first floor in meters.

And this kind of thing is what keeps me busy from January until May this year. No more social life and I seldom take a slumber too. (Sighs)

But still I am happy and I love life.

Four Months before,

You were here with me. But things are not the same as before. Situations are not good before I knew that something was going on. One hot afternoon, we were together. Your eyes were swollen and you feel exhausted. I asked you if you were okay. You said you do. I ignored it. I trusted your word. But my eyes saw a different feeling upon your face. You asked me to just let it go: your hidden suffering. Then I followed your request because you said so and I am your best friend. I don’t want you to doubt my trust on you. But then, I started to think of what you were going through.

Two Months before,

Dahil campus journalist na si Ginoong Manunulat, konting oras na lang ang naaksaya niya sa pagba-blog. Pero 'wag mag-alala. Ako pa rin ang dati. Medyo nadatnan lang ng kaunting evolution. At ngayon dahil campus journalist na, madalas ng maikulong ang sarili niya sa 'standards' ng iba. Mahal ko pa din ang blogging. Mas gusto ko ang free at wild mehn! Ire-republish ko lang ang naisulat ko na ngunit marahil di niyo pa nabasa. Wala namang masama dahil di pa rin natin natututunan ang aral na nais nitong ipabatid. Sa madaling salita, parang sa book report lang: Walang lesson learned kaya dapat i-revise!

Nanonood ako habang ginagawa ang plates (drawings) ko. Paglabas ng programa, sina VJ Chino (kapatid ata ni Lui Pio, bokalista ng Hale) at si VJ Bianca. (Magiging 'hate mail' ito kaya sa mga pans nila, pasensyahan na lang).
