It's a mundane Monday. I woke up at 6:00am to find out I'll be late for work if I don't act fast. I went home to our town for a one day break and its one hour away from Dumaguete.

When I arrived at the bus stop, it was raining hard and there were a lot of passengers waiting. Uhm, because of my being choosy, I disregarded 2 buses which passed by, 2 v-hire vans and 1 jeep. I ended up riding on a jeep wherein its combustion seems to be inside since the smoke keeps getting inside. Argh!

When I arrived at my place in Dumaguete, I smelled like hell and was wet because of the rain. I was supposed to take a bath but decided not to because I'll definitely be later than ever. I was hurrying up in ironing my clothes and ended up wearing a pink polo shirt and gray slacks. (Don't ask if I look good, because I do! Hehehe… kidding)

So I arrived at the office only to find out that its dress down day until Wednesday of this week. L Not only was I late, but that I hate what I'm wearing. 

After awhile, I ended up realizing that the choices we make determine the effects in us. I chose to wake up late by disregarding my alarm clock- and so I am. I was hurrying up to dress that I ended up disliking what I chose to wear. L Choices, choices, choices- we need to make them and no matter if it's good or bad- it has an effect on us.

Determining how to respond to our choices is hard, especially when we choose the wrong ones. We end up guilt-ridden and disappointed. We flash back to the memories of other mistakes and misfortunes. Hard as it is, we can't relive those moments but we can determine how to respond to it. For now, what's on my mind is how to respond to my situation? Will it be good or of bad? I dunno…it's just the start of Monday, and maybe this might be a good day after all. J
