Today was a typical Sunday.
I woke up at 8:30 a.m. and went to the porridge stall by the front gate for breakfast. I had plain porridge topped with scallions and fried garlic, with sides of toge (bean sprout rolls) and a boiled egg.
On weekends, I don’t usually take a bath in the morning. I feel a little weird and drowsy, so after breakfast, I go back to sleep, like an extension of my morning rest.
Two hours later, I woke up to help cook lunch. I fried tilapia. We also had blanched kangkong (or spinach) and salted egg mixed with tomatoes and onions.
After lunch, I went back to my room to watch the third episode of Game of Thrones, Season 3 squeeze in a little nap.
After that nap, it was finally time for my shower. Feeling refreshed helps me gather my thoughts. While cleaning my clothes storage box, I found a quiet moment to think and pray about what’s happening in the Middle East. May the good Lord reign over us, and may we have a peace that transcends all power, greed, and bad intentions.
Snack time came next, three big siomai, one tokneneng, and gulaman palamig. Ka-miss!
The last activity of the day was spending time on the rooftop. Mind you, I only had two cups of fresh milk but also snacked Oishi salted egg prawn crackers, and some Knick Knacks, hehe. I ended the day with beef pares and lemon fruit soda.
Okay, ready to rest. Time to take my meds, finish writing this entry, say a prayer, and look forward to a meaningful week ahead.
