its august 1. nothing out of the ordinary happened. thats fortunate. but i wont be complacent. there might be a stroke of bad luck lurching around the corner. yesterday seemed worse than today, making me think that the last day of july is warming me up for what august has packed for me this year. yesterday started with me waking up around 9am. i think. had a 1pm class and havent really studied yet. ive read the assignments but ive done that long ago so all i have were a general idea floating in my head. and that is never enough in law school. organized retention is important. anyway, i was supposed to do some reviewing of the assignments but i wasnt able to do so because bayantel called to have the dsl connection fixed. i called the night before, again, complaining about the intermittent connection. the technician arrived but wasnt able to fix it because he needed time and i didnt have time since i had class. so there wont be an internet connection til they got it fixed and they will have it fixed the following day, today, which they did. anyway, went to school. first class was PIL. got called. the class i was least prepared and i happened in one of those days where i feel im very unprepared. i mean, most of the time, i go to class confident that i know something. but i dont get called for those days. i get called on the day i have a vague idea of the assignment. nice. second class was nego, then evidence. good thing i wasnt called on those subjects but compared to PIL, i was more prepared for those. anyway, headed home and when i was about to alight from the jeepney, i hit my left abdomen on the jeep's steel bar because it accelerated even before i got off. ouch. ok, they really arent bad luck compared to what happens in august which is more of a series of unfortunate events but i thought it were indications of whats heading my way. anyway, august 1 came, the internet connection is better, still checking if its really fixed. didnt get called. got home safe with no injuries whatsoever. thats something to be thankful
