Once again, it’s this time of the year. I turned 28 today but frankly, everything was just normal. I woke up to the sound of my alarm clock, and had my early routine battle with consciousness and staying in bed. It was from a dreamless sleep, just like most of my sleep. I guess people just don’t dream much as they get older. Or maybe I had one and I’ll just remember it later in the day, that happens a lot of times.
I thought of not going to work, but I realized it won’t do me any good. So, I haul my body to the shower, quickly dressed up, and I’m ready to go. Office is about 40 minutes from our apartment, that includes all the walks, train, and elevator time. Just like most days, I’m sharp. Okay, maybe a minute or two late, but that’s minor I think.
After a rapid visit to my boss for daily attendance, I turned on the monitor of my computer pretending to be off from yesterday. Then, I walked to the pantry to get my coffee. I ate my breakfast. Fried sunny-side-up egg sandwich which I prepared last night. I made two. One in the morning, and another in the afternoon. It was bland and cold. Later on, the second one was colder.
Lunch time was with Filipino colleagues. I ordered fish fillet. Even if I wanted to, I’m not in the position to treat lunch. But I still appreciate greetings. 
Lunch chitchats, and while they were all busy with their phones playing games, I took a nap.
The afternoon part is always harder to bear. I don’t want to bring myself in bad light, and appear to be some lazy dumbass employee. I’m extremely far from that, and I’m confident in making this statement. Let’s just say that right now, I’m giving the most adequate amount of effort. Believe me, this is me, just being just.
Insignificantly, my day ended.
