Starting the Day Earlier than Usual: Early Walk to the Voting Place with the Fam, the Extreme Heat, and the Beautiful Greens That Are Cooling It

I didn't even notice the oldies getting out on their room, when I woke up they are already well prepared while i'm still in my bed, lol. But there's really no problem with that because it doesn't take much time when I prepared. I didn't take a bath because it's too early. And a take a bath yesterday in the afternoon so i'm still fresh no? Lol. I just change clothes and i'm all set, am ready to go!

Today is Election Day in the Philippines, so early in the morning, 6 am to be exact, we headed outside after drinking coffee. I just had bread though, I plan to have my full breakfast after coming back. We still have Pizza leftover from yesterday so I want to have that for breakfast.

We arrive in the school to where we'll vote and gosh, there's already a lot of people. We already know our Precinct number by looking at it online so we headed straight to where our precinct number is. But finding it still took a lot of time, the precinct I mean, but still, in the end, we find it. There's already a long line when we arrive, there's also that priority lane.

You can already tell how itchy it us just being here. So early but Mr. Sunny's in full blast! Waiting is tiring, and the heat made it worse, I hate this! But no choice but to wait. There's a few people who's much earlier than us, we should've come here as early as 5 am, aigooo. But anyhow, I am glad that all of us has the same Precinct number. Meaning just one room, unlike before, me and Mommy D was very far from Mommy F and Mama A's Precinct. If ever I am in a different precinct, I might choose again not to vote, like last time, Lol. I hate the crowd, and standing in a crowd without someone I know in those crowd is making me anxious and panic. And my shyness might just get on the way again, lol.

Anyways, waiting become more bearable because of the kind of surrounding the school has. With all different flowers and plants everywhere, being surrounded with it is like a blessings. Every year, this school change, they also added a lot of pretty things in here. Too bad my shyness get in the way, I couldn't take a lot of photos while waiting because I got conscious with the other people in there.

I also love their colorful benches here made in tires. Cool no? Putting them into good use.

And everything here is filled with greens, just look at that. Students in BCS is really living their best student life in here. Well, only those who appreciates greens though. I'm sure even those kids enjoy what they have here. Not to mention the wide field where they can run around and play. During our time here, every lunch break or after school and it's already time to go home, we will stay for nore minutes here to play luksong baka, patentero, habol habulan, luksong tinik and many more Pilipino games. Those are the best moments of my student life as elementary student. Hahhh, memories!

So after voting, we then walk back to our house. It's an exhausting walk because the heat is really too much. Our cap is really not enough to protect us from the heat.


How's the weather in your area?

Definitely better than the precinct where I voted. It was so hot and there were no green sceneries in sight! Plus, I waited 2 hours in line to vote. Nonetheless, I'm glad I did it 😊
