70th Post!

FINALLY! ELECTRICITY!

For three and a half days, I experienced total darkness right at my own abode. It started Thursday morning. At first I thought it was just going to be for a few hours. And then it went on for two days until Saturday! It really blew my head off. I was really, really angry with Meralco. What was the two-day no classes vacation gonna be without electricity?

With no TV, no computer, no electric fan, I did nothing but stare into blankness for the past three days. I played with my dogs, and practically FINISHED all the assigned readings. I finished studying for chemistry, even read topics not in our syllabus, miraculously studied FILIPINO, scribbled a few odds and ends on my whiteboard, and screamed at the electric posts.

Electricity came Sunday, 3:00 AM. I didn't get to watch House M.D., the Ateneo-UST basketball game, didn't watch ANY darned shows on TV. I did not sleep well for these past three days because of the heat and the darned mosquitoes. I had bites all over my body.

These three days were purely hell. I didn't get to do my theology powerpoint presentation, my stupid Rizal Course term paper, read blogs, and download mp3s.

I really, really thank God for the electricity.
