i thought the word "weird" is applied only to me

/sarcasm

Well, it's Friday, right? If you would look at the time of this entry -- it's approximately one in the afternoon. We all know I can't access LiveJournal at work, so what the hell am I doing here?

Surprise, guys: I'm having a self-quarantine at home. You see, last Wednesday afternoon, a female foreign exchange student at my university was confirmed of the infamous A(H1N1) influenza virus. (She was rumored to be Japanese, jsyk.) I clearly thought -- and I wasn't the only one in my class -- that the sudden suspension of classes in my university wouldn't affect our on-the-job trainings at our respective workplaces, since technically we don't go to school regularly recently.

What do you know? The next day, my blockmate and I were busy at our workstation, when a higher "boss" (I-I don't know exactly how to call him) asked, "Who's from La Salle here?"

And then it started. I knew the day would be weird -- the campus grounds were suddenly and unusually silent after all -- but not in this way. He then told us that he would be talking to the HR Recruitment to consider letting us have the so-called quarantine too.

It's understandable in a way -- most of us were in school last Friday -- but I felt it was kind of discriminating that they suspended ALL student trainees, those from our school. Besides, we all had work to do (or at least finish), and it's very unprofessional just to leave them all behind.

I happened to think that the ones who would be suspended were my classmates and I (there were other students that have different degrees from us) since we were there only last week. When the HR Recruitment Head said, "Where are the other students from La Salle?" And we were like, "So ALL of us?"

And they told us that it had been already decided. We were to go home at 12 noon that day, no questions asked. Even if our bosses tried to bargain that we'd extend for the day, it's non-negotiable, they said. None of us had any choice, simply put.

It was kind of amusing that we all had this, "What now?" faces, especially that it was really, really sudden. It's actually an "unexpected vacation" (as I'd like to call it) for everyone. We're supposed to go back to work -- cleared by the company clinic -- on June 15. So, yeah.

Basically we all decided to have a "bon voyage" kind of lunch at the nearest mall afterwards, lol. We called ourselves the "quarantined" peeps. XD

For me, it turned out in my favor though, especially that day. He and I, together with 3 other guys hanged out for a while, and they all played video games at the mall. I totally looked like a mom watching over those little boys, rofl. And well, it was fun, to say the least. :)

Enough of that, I was supposed to do this first!

I turn back time to relive each moment...
I turn back time to revive each emotion I've felt...
I turn back time to feel the happiness I have sensed some time in my life.
