Today was a good day for me. I rose really early because I had a lot to accomplish for the day. I am a contract worker. Which means I can get called in for work but I'm not on a salary; I'm on daily wages. I like it that way. I have time for myself too which is a plus. However, there are days when I want out of the house and go stay at the Radio Station where I interned.
Today, I wanted out of the house for a different reason. To distribute some of these...
But, I decided to make a small detour when I noticed how perfect the weather seemed to be.
I had the perfect place in mind to go for relaxation after distributing the flyers and hopefully even talk about the upcoming league to people I find there but alas...When I got there, I received the news that the park has been closed. The person told me it was sold.
What a shame...
Well, it is what it is. I decided to just walk back a bit and breathe before going back home. To be honest, I was a bit reluctant to go home because a project was sitting right on my desk. I have been working on this Assignment since last night and truth be told, I felt a little burned out.
Not so far from the gate, I met with these side beauties...
...and the owner, I think, actively working on something...
He noticed me hovering and thought I was a customer. I felt a bit bad to have disappointed him. Maybe someday soon, I'll come to get something for my place. Not a bad idea...
You see many like those...
They also had a lot of flower beds lined up...
...and obviously, this little prickly guy got my attention. I legit whispered, "Would you bite if I touch?"
Of course not, Deraa. He's a cuddle buddy. Can't you tell?
Sometimes, I wonder if I am actually sane with the conversations I have with myself. Am I the only person who asks and answers their own questions?
Crown-of-thorns is the name. I was not surprised with that discovery. I mean... Look at it!
This one was isolated from the rest. I love it!
Further ahead, when I was just contemplating taking a bike home, I saw this...
What got my attention was the RESORT upfront and so I thought maybe this was just a public view and something was behind. That wasn't the case when I asked the attendants. The view here? That was it. So, I was thinking, "are they making future prophesies?" If so, then I understand the plan.
There was a small kitchen beside it. This is basically a sit out and I really like the concept. This is a place I'd like to visit with my girlfriends and/or Mom and just chill to talk. It is out of the house with indoor feels...
I would be back to taste their menu soon...I hope it's good...
I found this wanderer! Look at me 
A Golden Pansy or Junonia chorimene! Nearly bit my tongue there. I'll just stick to the Pansy. And ohhh, there were other matches taken from Ghana and Ethiopia according to Google Lens. Looking further...
This guy, White Cabbage Moth, was a tad more difficult and I practically had to guess where he'd land next. See, Tengo. I'm a good student.
I also found this place! Look at that. A perfect shade. I see some enjoying it and I wonder what N.P.F spelt below means...
Well, I rounded up my walk with a bottle of water. I made a promise to not take Soda this month. So, water! water!! water!!
And I went home...to face the very thing I was running away from. However, I had new ideas. So, I wasn't so burned out afterall...
