A sunset a day, keep the blues away.

I hated myself for randomly saying the word "char." While talking to my friends at school I ended jokes with char, chatting with my boyfriend, and even at the dinner table. Minsan talaga mapapa-char ka na lang. AnywayI should be doing my upcoming small group discussion report but instead I scroll through this app called indeed and look for part-time jobs.

These past few days I want to experience retail therapy but it's hard when you can't even save. Kidding aside, I have the urge to earn and study at the same time. I wonder if I could find a part-time job and juggle between working and studying at the same time. But I also want to have time for social things. Time to walk outside and somehow take rest. Yesterday, I spent an afternoon walk with my cousins. We visited their home and I felt a rush of happiness seeing my parents, tito and titas catch up with each other. Suddenly, I felt nostalgic, reminiscing those childhood days in Cavite where my cousins would visit every summer. Where we can play outside, eat breakfast together, take afternoon naps, enjoy ice candy, swimming at inflatable pool in our backyard and listen to adults about funny and horror stories. Before, I find it weird how adults can just talk for hours about their lives and stuff. 


Despite of having lots of acad stuff to submit and finish, I decided to spent afternoon walking and waiting for the sunset. Everywhere I go, sunset will always be one of the things I'll look forward to seeing. Aside from that, I told M (who loves painting) that I've seen a sunset yesterday. She introduced me to one of her favorite oil paint shop that is somewhat hidden and oh god, how pricey the items are. I asked her if the happiness she felt entering a paint shop is the same as when I'm entering a bookstore. Still, the qualities of this items in that paint shop are top tier. She told me to send one of those sunset shots in order for her to draw the sunset using oil pastel and she actually did.
