Sorry I didn't write back earlier, I had 4 exams during these last two weeks, pain in the butt.
Short story: Honda mechanic said everything was fine with the car and battery.
Long story: Last Tuesday I got rid of the LED keyring. On Wednesday, my dad drove to the Honda dealership, after jumpstarting the car. It is a roughly 30 minute drive on the NJ Turnpike (~65 mph). Dropped off car at the Honda dealership mechanic. I picked him up, and 30 mins later when we got home, the mechanic calls and says that he tested the battery and its within normal performance limits. He also said that the car started immediately without need for jumpstarting. I've been driving it almost every day since then and I've had no problems. So by process of elimination plus what you guys wrote here, the cause of the problem was probably my faulty wiring of the keyring. The battery was fine, according to the mechanic. The alternator works, since it recharged the battery during that 30 min drive that morning. There are no shorts, according to the mechanic. If I don't have the battery problem again, its probably safe to say I screwed up the keyring wiring lol
