Day 406 Salad Sunday

Good afternoon!

Today is Sunday and I really didn’t intend to have a raw vegan lunch today.

I feel bad again that I choose not to attend Sunday service. And my victory group leader is finding me. I’m too ashamed to explain myself that I don’t reply. I’m sorry for not being active in Church 😞.

Also today I tried contacting people who reserved tickets to the College of Medicine Filmfest. It’s the first ever Filmfest of my college and all of us from conceptualization, to shooting even until selling tickets, it’s all on us Medicine students. And up to this moment no response from them. So sad that it’s hard to influence students in the campus to go and watch. It made me realized how people value their money so much that they won’t risk it on a Filmfest made by us Medicine students. 

Another struggle today was when I try buying stuffs from the university’s grocery store. They sell super cheap vegetables and fruits. Aside from that, they are a bit pricy towards dry goods. I found half kilo pechay which costs ₽25.05!!!!! Super cheap compared to supermarket ones. But the catch is the pechay they sell has many holes in it. Nevertheless I believe it’s still edible. Since I’m lazy to cook any good meals, I turned half of the pechay I bought into a salad 🥗 / ensalada. I put in julienned pechay, chopped onion, chopped tomatoes and seasoned with calamansi (for non-Filipino readers, it’s like lime).

After some time, I realized what I was eating was a raw vegan diet. Raw vegan diet is plant based diet which does not involve any cooking whatsoever.

[On a side note, I day dream if I have a car, I won’t have problem going to the Sunday service or any other Church activities in Victory and I might be able to buy decent food. But it’s all just a day dream. 😔]
