Week 2, 2018

Monday; The hardest part of the day was – the struggle with my nephew when it comes to taking his med. He repeatedly pleaded “pleaaath, pleaaaath, let me suka” (pleeeeasse, pleaaaasee, let me vomit). He gravely disliked his med that although I gave him options like mixing it in water or a juice drink right after, he’d still fight to refuse. My heart broke watching him begged so hard with tears dripping down his innocent face, but he has to take it! This time, I executed the “tingal.” Without a luck, he just vomited the med and worst of all, along with the food he ate. Now his stomach was empty and a possible dehydration. It’s too risky! I let it passed 1 hour before the second attempt while making sure he’s in the right condition. Same situation, pleading and crying. But thanks God he didn’t vomit. We had that commotion 3 times today.

Tuesday; Woke up late, went to school late, class dismissed early, and if I taken off early from school, I wouldn’t get wet from the rain on my way back home. I wandered around the campus for 2 hours waiting for at least, the rain to get a little lighter. When I got the chance, I quickly drove my motorcycle on the way home. On the road, a motorist overtake at me. He doesn’t have a proper mudguard and while I’m tailing him (which was not my choice), his rear tire spewed dirt water all over myself. I feel like my dignity has been abused! Vandalized! I hope he does realize it’s not easy to do the laundry.

Wednesday; Once I shut down my laptop, it means I’m going to sleep because I know it won’t turn on for another hours. I woke up this morning and turned my laptop on to see the time then shut it down forgetting the consequence of my action, it’s actually unnecessary if only I have my phone with me which is So Uncool. I have been waiting the entire day for my laptop to get fixed by itself. Yes, I’m not sure how it’s done and what’s the problem that it keeps on recurring although I’ve tried different methods said by people of the internet to the point of unscrewing the back cover and tweak the battery, but still, no luck. It turned on when I was about to go to bed. Nice, WRONG!

Thursday; After I dropped my nephew to school at 12pm, I have to go back home to prepare for my 3pm class. I'm on my way home riding an L3 van and with me, were 2 of the survivors of the recent NCCC Mall fire incident that took the lives of 38 people (TIMELINE: NCCC Mall Davao fire | SunStar). They were talking about the incident and I felt lucky to have heard a first account statement from the actual survivors. Not like those “magically turned into investigator” on Facebook spreading fake news! I even visualized everything they’ve said during that tragic event that I decided I won’t get off until they’re done. It lasted for like 30 minutes until a bunch of noisy students entered the L3 van, one student even said that it stank. Come on! Haven’t they realized they’ve been standing under Sun for quite a few minutes? They’ll definitely smell like untreated corpse. Perhaps they forgot their mouth is close to their nose. Going back to the chit-chat of the survivors, they stopped talking and I hate those students for that! 

Friday; I spent the day working on my thesis. We were ahead submitting the requirements, giving me extra days to chill. Today, I decided to work on Chapter 3, which is the installation of the system we’re gonna use. However, I’m having troubles on how I could possibly install it using Oracle Virtual Box. Searched YouTube for tutorials but if it’s not using other virtual box software then they’re speaking in Spanish. That’s when I contacted the Network Administrator at school where I used to work for him as in intern. On his generosity, he showed how I could simply install it. CHICKEN! Now the system is good and running but there’s a lot to work for. Tomorrow is weekend and I don’t usually make myself busy on the weekend, guess I’ll have to take it early. Movies? HEHE!
