At long last I will be able to get enough sleep. I was too busy working day and night and getting only 3-4 hours of sleep everyday. Simon came over from Tacloban so that we could work on Brainstorm‘s event legworks. Going around the metropolis to meet up with prospective clients at daytime was tiring, the long commutes and walks stressed us out to the max, late in the afternoon I take a short rest then proceed with my regular 8-hour nightshift job, after that I go home and wake up Simon so we could continue our work. A cycle of stressful sleeplessness…continously pressuring myself to work.
In between our long stressful errands, we managed to power up by taking a breather in Starbucks with a tall and cold mocha frappucino…what happened to our usual caffe latte? Obviously the hot summer sun dehydrated us to thirst and smacked our heads with heat and beaded us with sweat on our backs. So we needed something else to cool ourselves.
Then just yesterday, Simon took off for Cebu. I felt relieved that most of my work was done, but saddened because I’ll miss the company of my closest buddy from back home. We used to share an apartment and live like kings in our own way, helping out each other, watching tv, cleaning up the pad, cooking and eating on our small dinner table. His constant knocking on my bedroom door in the middle of the night just to wake me up to have coffee with him. It was also excitingly trivial, for he likes to leave our little so-called “home” in a mess and I had to clean up after him. It was fun and was a sweet taste of our own independence, until I had to leave Tacloban for a change in career.
How time flies. And back to my normal boring daily routine. But its okay, a few more weeks then I’ll be going home for the Pintados festival for a week.
How I can’t wait.
