Come on, let's spend the day together. In this post, I take you along with me as I get on with my day. A typical day in my life generally and as a hiver.
I woke up late today at 7AM after going to bed at 3:30AM. 7AM isn’t particularly late a time to wake up in the morning, unless you have something you need to do. Well, I was having my first class of the semester of a particular course. The same course that I spent most of the night trying to understand before I attend the lecture. I went to bed because I needed to. If I didn’t go to bed, I would have had to spend the whole day sleeping to pay for the night. So, the 3hour sleep was needed.
Among other things I spent most of the night downloading materials and reading about this particular course until I needed to go to bed. I quickly got up and got on with my morning routine; clean up, pray, recite, read, breakfast. I resolved to get more serious with my academics this semester (even though it’s a little too late) so I continued reading on to get an understanding of the course. I understood the generality of the course but I just wasn’t sure how the lecturer was going to treat it and I couldn’t wait to listen to his introduction of the course.
The class was at 11:20AM but I made sure to be in the class well before the lecturer came in. That way I got to sit in the front row seats so I would not miss anything the lecturer says. You can see I’m pretty excited about this course. Honestly it is not actually about this course, I am just excited about the whole semester because it is my final semester and I just can’t wait to get done. So, what this is that, I am just trying to finish hard. Lol ;D
The lecturer is of course an expert of the course so I understood it very well by the end of the class. I had planned to go to the library after the class so I went straight there but I got there and they were not opened for students. The reason is that they are moving to a new place. Yes, my school just had a new library building. Might show a vlog some time. They had been moving for the past three weeks I was hoping they were done by now. But that was just about time for prayers so I passed by the masjid which is just behind the library and I prayed. Passed by a food joint and got some and ate. Then I made my way to my hostel since my next class is at 4PM and the only place I normally hangout in between classes isn’t opened.
When I was eating, I realized the weather was what-would-normally-be-strangely-cool but we’re in the rainy season so it is not strange at all, it means something. My mistake that I didn’t think much of it to figure that it was threatening to rain. I was inside, otherwise I would have obviously seen the clouds. I finished eating and came out and it was drizzling outside.
Again, I didn’t think much of it, I was walking in the rain like it was nothing. This time I was walking back to my hostel. I walked past the campus and into the place where I couldn’t really stop anywhere and this rain got serious, pouring cats and dogs. Till now I still don’t get why I didn’t take the weather seriously upon the signs it was giving me. The rain just had to beat me back into my senses.
MY FRIEND CAN’T RUN TO SAVE HER OWN LIFE
I saw that my friend was also walking just a few couple of steps in front of me with her friend. My friend is a bit "weigthy", I never thought it was that bad until today. Her friend, skinny. The rain got serious before I noticed them. I saw that they were trying to walk faster to get a place to stop under. Then the rain got more serious and I saw that her friend had started running. I still can’t describe what my friend was doing, she wasn’t walking anymore, and she sure also wasn’t jogging nor running. Lol ;D.
It was definitely something somewhere between walking and running but it was nothing close to running and it was also not jogging. I took a right turn to my place while they continued ahead but I could still see them. Her friend ran and stopped under a big tree while she fumbled under the rain towards her. I wished I could help her by carrying her or something. ;(
I realized that heck, my friend really cannot run to save her own life! I can’t imagine her pain.
AS A HIVER, THIS IS A POST-WORTHY EXPERIENCE
I got to my hostel and went to my room, dried myself off, and thought of sharing this experience with my hive family. Then I started writing this post.
This is typically how things lead to one another to become a post worthy experience for a hiver. The typical hiver is just a regular human that likes to write and share their life experiences as it happens.
When it stopped raining, I realized the time had moved quite quickly because it was already like 3PM. It wasn’t long until it was time for Asr prayers, I prayed and browsed through social media for a bit until it was getting to the time for my next class which was supposed to be at 4:45PM. I left my hostel at 4:20PM, got to campus well before the class started and waited until the lecturer showed up. At the end of the class, we wrote and quiz. I submitted my paper and left immediately I finished.
My day basically ended there because when I got to my hostel, I went to straight to bed cuz I needed to rest to be able to stay up later in the night.
Thanks for passing by.
