What have I been up to lately you might ask? Well, for one I've been really busy finishing my papers for a class that I did not complete two semesters ago. It took a broken flash drive and an impending conviction of my professor to motivate me to finally finish my reaction papers. Whew!!! Aside from that, work, friends, and family have been eating up much of my time. I have been neglecting this blog, I know but then I can always make it up by posting every once in a while. Hehe...Anyway, yesterday on my way home, my faith in human kindness has been restored. I mean, I've been really jaded these past few days given the series of events that have been taking place, be it something personal or otherwise. But last night was different. As I fell in line to wait for the shuttle service that will take me home, it began to drizzle. I didn't have an umbrella and all I had was my denim jacket. I then began to use it to shield at least my head from getting wet since I didn't want to get sick. And what do you know? This woman who looked like a snob at first was smiling at me and she said "Silong ka muna dito sa kin Miss." And I was like Whoah!?! I really didn't quite expect it and all I could do was say thank you and smile back. And after the kind lady had gone as the shuttle service arrived, another offered her umbrella since I no longer had shelter from the drizzle. It was amazing! I've been a recipient of two kind acts from strangers in just one night. Those random acts of kindness were very refreshing and they surely revived my ailing spirits.
