I biked the other day from the house to UP and around UP then came back home. I wanted to stay here longer to listen to music while I catch my breath. But no, UP Police is guarding the entire academic oval, making sure people don’t linger. The UP admin’s reason for closing the oval was that COVID-19 cases are rising so they’re getting people off the campus for two weeks.

They still kept College of Science closed. Well, understandable since the Philippine Genome Center is there.

This is the first time I’ve been here without him. Well, as my friend said, there will be a lot of firsts like this in the coming days…until I stop noticing.

A colleague told me to have a completely new hobby. “Time and energy are best spent on yourself and your girls and not something unworthy.”

He is unworthy. Better spend the effort of harboring this anger into something more productive.
