Holy Retreat Week: Day 1

Today is the start of the Holy Week. This means a mass exodus of those living in the metropolis, to live with their family, friends and relatives in the provinces. Note that this also means a mass traffic queue on the highway and other major roads, so what was supposed to be a 1-hour would take about 3-4 hours this week. Congestion is that bad.

My sister and I started packing our things for the exodus from our condominium (once a dorm). I packed everything I own (and need): my CD-R's, school items, jeans, shirts, foodstuff. After that, we had to wait for our family driver to pick us up. while doing so, I managed to scout for the latest anime series line-up. I must say, it was kinda massive, with the lost list of shows in Japan currently airing on TV. Checking my timetable, I realized I wouldn't be able to see them all, so I picked a few ones I would most likely watch (like School Rumble Second Term). When the driver finally arrived, we were all set to go. I turned off the computer, and off we go.

While in traffic, I suddenly remember that I left my iPod back at the condo. But then I realized I won't be using the device for long, as I have my laptop with me and my CD-R's to keep me entertained on the way home. Oh well.
