JUST A GLIMPSE...

It has become my habit to look around and appreciate sights and sound a step away. It brings out the contemplative side of my personhood that keeps on searching for anything that can catch attention. And in this world of constant change and countless angles, I could say life is a kaleidoscope of experiences of different people on almost everything that comes along the way.


I invite you to join me in my journal as I feature the colourful panorama of this modern life seen from different perspectives. Allow me to take you to see other sides… even the unexplored dimensions as I further search, dissect, scrutinize, and rediscover anything under the sun. This blog is a feast of the many fascinating things about life and what it has to offer.


Go through the pages and have a peek… enjoy the kaleidoscope, then let your mind speak!

PED MERCADO

on sleeping


The other day, I did it again.

It was a Thursday. After my work in the morning, I had nothing to do in the afternoon so I watched a DVD movie. Immediately afterwards, I went out to buy some personal things. It didn't take me a long time since my place is just a few blocks away from the town's commercial center. Few minutes later, I was already inside my room thinking of what to do next. It was like five in the afternoon.

Then, everything went BLANK.

I came to my senses it was already four in the morning. I still felt groggy so I went back to sleep. The next thing I knew it was already one in the afternoon. My house mate told me some of my friends were looking for me the other night and I was totally dead to the world that I wouldn't wake up.

This was not the first time it happened to me. I usually would experience this after I finished a very tedious work, but this time I was not even preoccupied with a lot of things.

I know there are many factors to consider, but it bothers me now that I can be detached from the real world for half a day straight. It feels like I have missed something or there was a gap missing especially upon waking up not knowing the date.

Is it a good thing or not? I still do not know. But whatever the causes are, I hope it is just my body's unique way of working its system.
