I woke up earlier than usual today, Sundays always have a different vibe as my day always rotate around music. After stretching and jumping down from my bed, i said a quick prayer, thanking God for a new day. My home was quiet, so i took my time getting ready for church service.

I picked out one of my finest outfit, black trouser, white shirt and a petit coat.... since i was heading to church. I made breakfast and after i was done with my breakfast, i scrolled through my phone checking messages.

By 8:30AM i was all set to leave for church. The drive from my house to church was smooth, with no traffic and the morning air felt refreshing. I love going to church, the similes on peoples faces, the greetings, and the sense of community.

While in church and just as the service was about to begin, the lights went off and there was power outage. Without the microphones and instruments, service had to go on and we did what was done for centuries by singing a cappella.

There's something powerful about voices united in worship without any music. The entire church sand old hymns and choruses, clapping and harmonizing.
While all this was going on inside the church, we were outside trying to connect and use the generator but some parts where damage and needed repairs.

We managed to fix the generator but after using it for about 30 minutes, it went back off. The sermon was deliverd without a microphone. By the end of the service, the power was still out, but no one seemed to mind and if anything, i think i made the experience more memorable.

After church, i headed back home. The sun was high, and the day was warming up. Once i was home i rested on the couch. When i woke up, i felt refreshed, i checked my phone and saw a message from my friend asking if i am free to come over to his place which i went to his place. We discussed everything, work, family, future plans and even silly childhood memories.

As evening approached, we decided to watch El Classico game together. The match kicked off at 3:30pm and from the first whistle, it was intense. I am a real madrid fan and i wanted her to win. Fast forwarding to the final whistle, Barcelona won my team and i felt so much embarrassed until i had to post it on my whatsapp status.
After the game, we talked a bit more, replaying key moments and analyzing the players performances. Later around 6pm i decided to head back home as i called it a day.
