Day Off

Not only stay-in maids are entitled to have day-offs, students also have the privilege to have a maximum of seven absences in a semester for whatever reason it may be because rest-days are not enough.

After a restless weekend, I decided not to go to school today. Good thing, there were no violent reactions from my mother. I got jaded from all the coursework, irksome block mates, and galling professors.

And I’m also looking forward to President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo’s State of the Nation Address. It may appear to be another euphemism, but let’s see what issues she’ll be touching this afternoon or what her plans for our country are. Well, this may be a good excuse for me to be absent, or just an alibi.

So, yeah, whatever.
