March 15, 2021 - MONDAY

I got out of the bed a bit late because I also slept late. I can't really avoid this habit every Sunday. I know this routine would take a toll in my health in the future. I just can't help it. 

Before lunchtime, I attended our scheduled synchronous session. I tried to be productive as much as I could. Fortunately, before the day was about to end, I finished two activities. Indeed, a little progress each day adds up to big result.

March 16, 2021 - TUESDAY

My mom asked me if I have an extra money in my wallet. We already run out of gas. I don't have a choice but to spare her my extra cash because we probably wouldn't have a food at our table if I refuse to. 

I was just sad because I am continuously saving for a merch that I suppose to buy in April. I guess I just have to postponed it a little later. The most important thing right now is the support we always have in the family

March 17, 2021 - WEDNESDAY

I'm still studying/reviewing for our upcoming quiz on Friday. So far, I managed to be quite calm and at ease this time. There's no help to distress myself. I've already experienced it. 

I'll just have to devote and use my time efficiently in studying. Yes, finals should be top of mind for me. But it is also important to emphasize my health as a top priority. 

March 18, 2021 - THURSDAY

Today was like a repeat performance of yesterday. I did some research for our major course. Some reflection papers also about the movie we were tasked to watch. By afternoon, I decided to went over to my mom's tapsihan to make up for my absences last week. 

Although my mom didn't obliged me to come over because she knows also that I'm really busy with school, I willingly joined her only because I felt bad whenever I can't help or to be with her only due to lack of time. 

March 19, 2021 - FRIDAY

It's our quiz in our major course today. I'm kind of excited and also nervous. I didn't cram for a last minute rundown of lessons & concepts because I will just panick with all the sudden ideas and ended being completely overloaded. I didn't want that to happen. So I decided to be calm and internalize the peace I want inside my body. To cut the story short, I did good in our quiz. Not perfect but I did my best. Two mistakes is not somehow a big deal. And to celebrate my small win, I bought an ice cream for me when I went outside, just savoring my reward even for a short moment.

March 20, 2021 - SATURDAY

I decided to call this day as my rest day, As much as I want to be successful in my studies, I also want to prioritize my well-being as an person.

We all know our body needs sufficient time to repair and refuel, especially between challenging, stressful events. 

Throughout the day, I just enjoyed my self-care activities like watching videos, and movies, listening to my playlists, bonding time with my cats and lastly, making time for my family.

March 21, 2021 - SUNDAY

Today I chose to resume my academic duties but in a lighter mode just like any other Sundays. 

Along with my task in school, I also fulfilling my responsibilities as a son in our family. It is also considered as my make up period because during weekdays, I've always been inactive in some other chores. 

By evening, I decided to map out my schedule for the next 3 to 5 days and make sure I am prepared for the week ahead because our professors are already showering us with tons of final requirements.

Planning on Sunday gives me a chance to focus in peace and quiet on what needs to get done. This makes Monday feel far less overwhelming and sets me up for success through the week.

But this doesn't mean I need to follow it exaggeratedly down to the minutes and seconds. Things will always come up and there will always be emergencies. So, this planning session is like outlining your day in a much meaning and efficient manner.
