Hello my dear steemians, welcome to another episode of my dairy session I still remain your humble @madoshi, Work up at around 6:00 a.m. sharp, and like every other weekday, I dragged myself out of bed to get ready for lectures. I brushed my teeth, ironed my shirt, and even reviewed a few pages of my notes from the previous class so I wouldn't be caught off guard. By 8:00, I was dressed, fed on a quick cup of tea, and ready to head out the door mentally preparing myself for a long day of classes. Just as I was about to step out, my phone buzzed. It was a message in our class group chat lectures for the day had been cancelled. No prior warning, no specific reason given, just a simple notice that class wouldn't be holding. At first, I felt a small pang of confusion all that early morning rushing for nothing. But that confusion quickly turned into quiet relief. An unplanned free day is a rare gift for a student and I decided right there to make the most of it.

With my morning suddenly wide open, my stomach reminded me that I hadn't eaten anything substantial yet. So I headed to the kitchen and decided to prepare a proper breakfast boiled yam paired with a rich tomato sauce loaded with vegetables. I peeled and cut the yam into thick, satisfying slices, then set it to boil while I got started on the sauce. I diced tomatoes, onions, carrots, and cabbage, added a bit of sausage for extra flavor, and let everything simmer together into a delicious, spicy stew. By the time the yam was soft and the sauce had thickened into that perfect orange-red color, I plated it all up and dug in. It was easily one of the best breakfasts I'd made in a while, the kind of meal that makes you forget your morning didn't go as planned.

Just as I was cleaning up from breakfast, my phone rang again, this time it was one of my friends inviting me to a get-together later that evening. A group of us decided to meet up in the park to relax, catch up, and play some card games. By evening, I found myself standing by a railing in the open field, sunlight filtering through the trees, laughing and strategizing over rounds of cards with friends. There was plenty of friendly banter, a bit of competitive trash talk, and genuine laughter that made the whole outdoor gathering feel like exactly what I needed after an already unusual day. What started as a normal morning of lecture-prep turned into a day filled with unexpected freedom, good food, and great company. Sometimes the best days are the ones you never planned for.
