2011 july 4th

I was exhausted from accommodating my newly found friends -- the Norsks, that it didn’t came up to me that july 4 – the American indepence day and the Filipino-American friendship day is almost in the corner. I had been constantly reminded that i will join the celebration, and i always tell them i would. 4th of july falls on Monday, and we have to celebrate it the day before, which is the 3rd of July and it's sunday.

The day came, and i was totally drained from the past week event. I said i’m going but thinking of not going at all, as i just wanna spend time with my room, my bed and sleep. As that’s what i always define weekend. But at the same time i don’t wanna disappoint my Peace corp friends of not showing up on their special day. Even with a groggy self, i drag myself going to the beach, as my mom would not stop pushing me to go and attend the july 4th celebration.

Went to the beach with an earphone in my ear as im still on the bad mood. I didn’t hear cassie asked how i was, not until brenfred told me that she did asked me. Same people we’re present during the party except for some new volunteers from Calbayog and for some visitors that were not here like of last year.

I tried to compose myself and begin to talk with people who are there. Foods are great let say, far more greater than the last year. Went to swim and just talk while in waters. And the rest of the day was fun fun fun 
