It's Monday morning, and for some, this is the first day of the week just like what the school follows, but not for me. This is actually my second day at work. Going here at school for the opening of the Sport Fest, it means I barely have sleep and had work prior.
I'm not often going to school anyway because I'm tired and I need sleep. I'm only going if I have class or there's something important that I need to do or attend to just like the class presentations, quizzes and exams. However, I willingly sacrificed my few hours of sleep just for this day since it's the Sport Fest opening program. It only happened once a year, so what's a few hours to spare?
Like any ordinary student, even if I'm a student-leader, the first thing that I will be looking for when I get to the venue would be the attendance sheet. Since there's a School Memo for this event, I better secure the proof of my presence since my Program Coordinator is very strict when it comes to these stuff.
I went to where our department was placed inside the Activity Center and sign the attendance sheet. I also took pictures of myself as proof that I was really there since some of our Instructors are asking for selfies before they consider giving additional points to our grades.
I managed to stay for an hour more to check on my juniors and watch the program starts, but allergies got me. Rashes were spreading from my neck to my back and it's so itchy. I couldn't control to scratch those rash at times, and I got scolded by my friends. I was urged by them to take medicine, but I was hesitant because I frequently got this and I'm not really sure what is the cause. Maybe, it's from the foods, the humidity, or the dust, I can't tell now. It just randomly pops up, and I'll know when I got it when it get reddish. After a few minutes, I couldn't take it anymore. I decided to take the medicine, unfortunately, I left that at home.
I got excused from my duties and sent home. On the way, I get to admire the fine weather but the scorching heat annoys me. I couldn't use my umbrella properly to shade me a little from the blazing hot sun since the wind blows too strong. My umbrella can't withstand the wind and bends if I pull it up. And when I was crossing the intersection near my street, I remember that there is a new Don Macchiatos store in front of the high school gates. I immediately took a turn going there.
If I can't shade myself from it, then I'll beat the heat with an iced coffee. And, here we go! That's Donya Berry and Don Matcha.
It was then where I got to taste Donya Berry, and made it an instant favorite. I just like that they used Strawberry Jam in their flavor not an artificial strawberry syrup like the other coffee shops. I could even taste the real strawberry in it, so authentic.
Anyway, heat index is spiking in this season once again, so stay hydrated. How's the weather on your end?
