TettaTete

 I just finished listening to all the episodes available of the TettaTete podcast by former FM DJs I listened to before! I'm a big fan of Patty (DJ Kelly on Magic/Play/Max FM), one of my all-time favorites on the radio! I never realized how much I missed listening to her voice, both the vocal quality and the things she says, until I l heard her again after so many years! I love listening to people share their thoughts, especially now that I'm an adult. These kinds of introspective discussions about life hold a lot of meaning to me now!

LSPCON 2026

 I judged a student publication contest organized by my beloved Heraldo Filipino, It's part of the Lasallian Schools Press Conference that they are hosting this year! We hosted this back in 2007 too and was one of the first things I did as newly-appointed EIC. It was such a moment. Glad to be part again after many years. Campus journalism will always have a special place in my heart. 

Two Weeks

 Glad for a safe arrival and I hope they all have a safe and good time. Thank you, Lord. The next two weeks will be interesting to me as well and hopefully I can some things done and also get a little breather not gonna deny. But don't get me wrong, I do love what I do but every now and then I need some breather so I don't get all burned out that I could end up not being grateful in the end. I don't want to feel regret. I am okay with what is now but yes I hope for better ahead days ahead. 

Safe

 I'm getting worried but I know this is the right call. They deserve it and I hope all goes well and nothing stressful happens too. I hate myself for thinking a lot of negative things but I keep it to myself so there won't be unnecessary problems. Dear Lord, please keep them safe always

36 Minutes

 Just a little bit more and I'm done with this gigantic task. I had to extra effort because I was not in top form yesterday and I wasn't able to complete everything needed. But I do think I made the right call listening to my body! Better be safe than sorry

Good job

 After my mini meltdown (to myself per usual) yesterday, I felt a little sick today but then made me remember things I should be grateful for. And the cause of stress I had last night has been fixed and good thing I didn't act out in front of other people because unneccesary problem it would have caused! Anyway, I had to delay some things to do today because I wasn't in form, but tomorrow I'll be back. Needed a break (not even a full break, just took a breather)

Fight

 I'm tired but I need to keep on fighting. I'm stressed but I know it's something manegeable but the heat is just making things a lot harder. It elevates small problems to bigger than it is. It didn't help that I overheard some shady comments earlier too, maybe in jest, maybe acting out of recent events but it's annoying. Then I have a lot of things to do but I took a detour earlier because I was a feeling off then I had to do other stuff in consideration of others. One of those days...

Flight

 The next week is hectic, so many things that needs to get done in a quick manner and on top of that I have to take care of personal things which hopefully will be smooth and persons involved will have a convenient time as well. Thank you Dear Lord because despite my paranod, you hear my prayers, I'm  so grateful, please continue guiding us

IO

 Plot twist! I didn't expect that we will ever have something to do with then! Hopefully it's a good thing but I'm a bit wary about it. 

On Call

 Reading comments on Scrubs' Facebook page, a lot of people say they got used to seeing Neil Flynn as Mike Heck, whereas before they had a hard time seeing him as not The Janitor on The Middle. Honestly, same thought! The revival season is over, and I enjoyed it, but it was way too short, with just 9 episodes. Hopefully, we get 20+ again next season. For now, I will just binge the earlier seasons of Scrubs, which I watched on actual free TV (RPN 9) weekly back in the day.

Pilots

Joined Spotted Ratings community "Pilot" season, which is a little group activity where commenters pitch their pilot concepts and other users rate them later, and top scorers get an "order". It's a little silly on the surface but kinda fun to play armchair TV development executive when I score pilot premises over the years. This time I made pitches for the first time! It was fun and good brain exercise! Let's see how my pitches fair after the judging, ha!

Vibes

I've been wanting to get a massage for weeks and I finally got one today. A little bit of impulse move because I had one after work, I usually my routine and time set but squeezing that massage meant I got home a little later but it's okay. I really needed this one! I always getting a massage from blind masseause, they just do things differently! 

Artemis II

 I was not paying that much attention when it was happening because my mind is all distracted of some many things but today all of a sudden and watching reading about the Artemis II exploration. And I'm so amazed and also somehow emotional too? It really is something out of this world for me to think about deeply

New Suki

Now that the Mercury Drug near our office has closed down, I went to another branch that's also nearby.  It's a little farther than our office and I need to cross another street which is okay but the traffic light takes forever for pedestrians' turn! Anyway, that branch is smaller but at least it's not as crowed as other Mercury branches and it has my essential snacks I want. Convenience stores are more expensive, I want cheaper snacks! Oh well, I still miss the branch near us but that's life

Pantropiko 2026

 

Oh, I really love this Coachella version of Pantropiko! BINI did really great here, I'm proud that did so wel on such a big stage! I feel like this song will yet again regain popularity. It's such a good song and this version is another level.

20 Minutes

Just a little more push and it's all done. Hopefully tomorrow I can settle another one off my list that's been a little delayed but partially settled. It's a little messy and chaotic but I don't know works for me. But it shouldn't be like this always!

Thoughts on Malcolm in the Middle: Life's Still Unfair

 It was originally pitched as a TV movie and you could feel it!  Anyway, with just 4 episodes it was an easy and fun binge.

Episode 4 is the best of course, Malcolm and Lois confrontation while Craig is doing his business in the toilet! Crazy funny while having the heart of the story.

I liked Hal in general but he was too much in this one. Yes, Bryan Cranston became the biggest name after this show and he is first billed now but episode 3 when he was front and center was a bit painful to watch. He actually had more scenes than Malcom himself 

New Dewey is forgettable and I don't get why the character had to be 'remote' for ep. 4? Maybe they were hoping Erik Per Sullivan would agree in this setup?

Malcolm's daughter was good and funny and I wouldn't mind a series centered on her! The girlfriend is also a good character.

I also liked Kelly, the youngest!

There were less Reese than I hoped but his few moments were fun, Justin's comic timing is just perfect.

It was fun to see Stevie, Malcolm's other childhood 'friends', Francis' friends in ep. 4

While this wasn't fully satisfying, I'm still glad to see this family again and honestly I wanted more!

Grunts

 I went hard today on a specific thing and glad I accomplished it well. Now, there's more ahead I need to get done and hopefully I can make good progress tomorrow so the weekend will be not chaotic, we need to avoid that!

Metropolitan

 Some bad choices were made and I'm paying for it. Sometimes, I never learn! Charge it to experience and to aim for sounder decisions in the future.

First Look

 

Excited for this to finally grace local TV screens! I wrote the dubbing scripts for the first two episodes of Twist of Fate" and so excited to see it be alive on screen! It will premiere this Saturday 8 PM on SolarFlix!

Mid

 This is such a good interview mostly thanks to The Middle's Eden Sher's infectious energy. I love that Eden Sher still remembers they launched with Hank. The interviewer is a bit frustrating, he is kinda clueless on how TV works. Tidbit here was they were kinda tricked to do the Sue spinoff, Eden was not interested at first but she was told the producers wanted to later on she found the producers initially said no but they were told she wanted to do so. I just saw Netflix Philippines will have The Middle on their lineup soon, I'm in a for a rewatch, love that show so much

Rising

 Checked everything off my list! I really had the energy to do a lot of things on Easter day itself! Glad I was able to keep that momentum going so I can lighter load tomorrow. I do have to finish other things but at least some of the things are already done! Hoping for a bright week ahead!

Life is....

 I've been listening to interviews of Frankie Muniz and Justin (Reese) for the Malcolm in  the Middle revival, and from what I gather, it really is supposed to be a TV movie only and it looks like it was Craig's call to make it a 4-episode "event" . Frankie did say the 4 episodes are really just one continuous story and he said that the story left on a good note, that if it's really the last time it would be good place to conclude. But I think Craig wants a series revival, the show is popular overseas especially Latin America because the humor is so easily translatable to non-Americans so could be a good thing for Disney. So excited to watch it next week!

Blinking

 I failed to replicate the thing I did last year. But there's still some progress just not fully focused like last year, it's a mix of geting pre-occuping of that thing that hang over my head for many weeks and general feel laziness! But anywya, psyching myself again to finish this one!

One Minute

 Felt quite relieve the one thing I was anxious and almost made me make a big impusilve decision is taken care off already. Nabunutan ng tink as they say. I know objectively speaking it wasn't really that problematic, I just made mountains out of molehills but it's me. Anyway, tomorrow I need to do something that I held off because I was too worried about this thing that I can't focus on another thing!

Foresee

 Just as I predicted, oh well. I did make a correct choice today though but still this kind of stress / dilemma is unavoidable I guess. I'm trying my best not to get so affected by this because it is out of my control in the end. 

Long Day

Started my day earlier than normal for something which ultimately was disappointing. But I guess had to do it to kill the fire before things escalate. It made me sad as always but I just have to accept that this is it, it's not the end of the world of course and there are bigger problems so yeah, it's okay.

Mercury

 Tomorrow last day na ng Mercury branch na 'to near our office (the one connected sa Tropical Hut Makati). This branch is older than me and I've always loved its classic look tuwing nandito ako. Suki ako dito for buying medicines for Nanay (and buying snacks too!) na familiar na sakin ang staff dito. Very helpful and accommodating pa naman sila. I like it here kasi hindi masyado matao but I guess  that was a warning sign na struggling na sila. This area used to have a lot of foot traffic kasi sakayan ng bus and vans but changes sa routes that started nung pandemic and yung construction ng Makati subway (na hindi naman natapos) made them less accessible. Madami naman Mercury nearby but still this branch has a special place in my heart.

Petty Fun

 Today I unclogged and just did something that could be considered brain junk! It's fun though to not think about bigger problems because I will face that most of the time anyway. For my well-being, I need to have this kind of moments where I do nothing of important to recharge for another week ahead full of life's challenges!

Screen Time

 I caught up with my shows Abbott Elementary and Scrubs 2026 thanks to Disney+ Ha! I still have a few months left on the discounted annual plan I got last year and I'm gonna maximize it as much as I can! Back in the day I could really watch more but now my time is so divided with so many things going on but I will find time to relax! I need it!

In Line

Planning my next week with things I need to do. Really hoping my other concern will be attended to and it will go smoothly because I've stressed about that so much last time around. Anyway, glad things went good this week generally speaking. Hoping for brighter days ahead!

Pop

 I really hope the thing I was so worried about will be taken care off as soon as possible. Maybe as early as next week! Hopefully, things could run smooth, I just want some peace of mind or at least something less to worry about. I have so many on my mind I get all confused. So help me, God!

Stat

 Received some potentially good news. I don't want to jinx it but I really everything goes well so I have one less thing to worry about. Good thing I just let my frustrations to myself and posting it here on vague terms hahaha. Yeah, I needed an outlet and this is better than being outspoken. I was wrong with my initial thought anyway, the stress consumed me!I really hope things will go well soon enough!

Test

Next will be it, the deciding factor on what I should do next. Anticipating bigger stressful things but I need to be calm because I have another thing to think about this week too. Overwhelmed with so many stressful factors in my life. I wish there's a shortcut, to go to the good part already or just ignore these things but I need to protect my well being because I don't want to crash out

Diving

I'm getting confused again. I'm scared and also emotional about what could happen if I pursue it. All weekend, I felt like my decision is final then now I'm second-guessing again. I do know what could be better for me, but I'm getting cold feet again, and my people-pleasing nature is stopping me too. Oh dear Lord, please guide me.

Fotos

I've been thinking it over and over. I try not to be excited or make things up in my mind. Maybe I'll jinx it because nothing is happening yet anyway. But I need to do something, I need to protect myself, especially what lies ahead. Although I still need to give myself some space, because I could be just acting impulsively. But I want to trust my instinct now. I need to fight my fear. Oh, let's do it!

Several Months Later

As much as it pains me, because I like it and it gives me some comfort, but thinking ahead, I have to do something before I get dragged into a bigger problem on the horizon. It won't be this early yet because I need to prepare something to fall on, but I actually need to actively search for that something already because I have enough information to see that this isn't gonna work, and it seems to me that there's no better planning ahead. I hope something else happens that would stop this eventually but there's no other way but this. Oh Dear Lord, please guide me. 

ISTG

 Oh my goodness, I can't help but watch youtube shorts of these two actors promoting their show! I will sound like a giggly girl but they look good together and has great rapport. I don't even watch the show they are part of but just stumbled upon while scrolling away on YouTube. I just want some diversion so I guess that's why I ate this up hahaha

40 Toons

Tired. Trying to keep it together so I won't fall apart. Because no one is gonna catch me anyway. In the end, it will be my problem yet again. I just want to escape sometimes but I know it's futile because I will think about it again anyway. There is truly no escape. I just witnessed what could happen if I don't keep it together, so stay put and just take everything in. I'm just stressing out tonight and tomorrow I'll be okay before I go back this endless cycle.

Fair Fare

 Glad the supposed fare hike was vetoed. Yes, I know everyone is affected with the oil price changes but you see once the fare increases, they will never go back down anymore even if the crisis is over. I mean, the pandemic era where we pay to make up for social distancing is still in effect up to now in our area. No one complains because what's the point? It's just unneccessary stress. Oh, the life of the working class!

Hanging Over

 I have very tough thing to do tomorrow but let's do it! I wanted to finish it today but I wasn't able to due to some reasons, self inflicted admittedly. But I'm okay, I'm gonna do this, revving up!

98th Oscars!

Some thoughts on this year's Oscars!

- Love the Amy Madigan, Sinners and One Battle After Another wins~

- Not a super fan of Kpop Demon Hunters but I love the songs! You can't deny the pop culture impact leading to its win

- Not much surprises overall except for the tie in Live Short, that was fascinating!

Degrees!

 There has been much hype today because the weather is cold because what will happen when summer time actually comes? Will the heat be that intense? Maybe so but for now I will enjoy the cool breeze!

Orders

I love the cold weather is back! Cold but not raining so that's perfect for me! Drawback is that it makes me feel lazy and do nothing of importance! But maybe that's okay! I'll think about that tomorrow lol

Caterpillar

 Here we go again, another jam-packed next few days! But this is what I want of course, and hopefully things will run smoothly this week had some slippery slopes, and partially my fault, but I will make things better this time. I need to.

Project

 I'm interested with the movie PROJECT HAIL MARY and yes the book too! I just want to be transported again to another world like I used to before. I need to get back to that and not get drownd with life's challenges. So hopefully I can push with this!

Arranging

 So I got things done while I was watching Scrubs season 1 in the background! Yes, the revival/10th season made me revisit the first season on Disney+ For some reason, I was still able to understand what I'm watching while doing a task that normally bores me because it's tedious and repetitive but I guess having my brain focused on something else helped? It's fascinating really!

Boomerang

 Gas prices all over the news.And for sure, everything will rise because of it and even if when things settle down prices for most things still high! Oh well, I don't want to think anymore.

Majesty

 Finished something I thought I couldn't but good thing I asked for help because I needed it so bad! Still have things to do but I will make things work per usual. I still have bouts of dout and fear but I don't want to let it consume me, fight on! 

Hoppers

 Glad to see Pixar's latest HOPPERS have a good box office opening! Best since Coco for an original story! A good performance for an original title is really needed because the powers that be always based on their decision on hard money and not really other factors! 

TV Thoughts!

 Scrubs revival really feels smooth, it feels so natural continuation and the new additions are well cast and feels like I've been watching them for so long already. Also, I love that the characters definitely matured but not too far from the personalities we loved in the original. This is so ready for a 22 type of order again! Hope they can make it possible!

The Richard Jewell joke on Abbott Elementary this week is so funny and random! I will always remember that movie where Kathy Bates randomly getting an Oscar nod bumping J.Lo on Hustlers lol

Patches

I still feel uncomfortable and frazzled but you gotta move on. Fears still linger but I can't be a slave of it especially seeing the effect of one who allowed herself to be consumed by it and made fatal mistakes that led her to a place she never expected to be. I feel bad but I also need to distance myself because it's consuming me as well. 

Shine a Light

Scared of something in the past that could haunt me. And the thing is, on the wide view, it shouldn't be because the rest were good and adjusted except for one that had lapses, but was not a big issue overall. But I'm paranoid and my mind go to places especially after recents shook me to the core. Oh dear Lord, please let just this be something in my mind and not really in reality. I am begging you. 

Atmosphere

 I've been dreaming a little. An escape. But I know it's just the stress talking or rather the uncomfortable feeling due to recent events. I march on and do things as best as I can. I can't help but dream again though of a more comfortable life but I know life is not like that especially with many things going on. Dreaming though even if it is far fetched keeps some fire in me.

P10

 Way to ruin a night! Always jumping to conclusions then when proven wrong you still feel victimized? So sick of this act. Oh well, as always, let things go and just move on because there's no point letting myself get stressed out over nonsense waste of time matters.

35

 One more thing to do check of my deliverables, I wanted to finish it today but when you feel something you gotta listen to it so no further consequences. Conserving energy for tomorrow's battle yet again!

Buzzers

 I could have done things more efficiently if I divided my time well but I guess it's okay in the end because I still get to do some mental breaks and take care of things

N/A

I got stresed and I wasn't able to finish the thing I want to finish because I got distracted yet again! Let's try tomorrow which is a new month already!!!!

Don't Let Me Go

 

I had a World of My Own album (on cassette) for decades but only now that I've discovered this song from this album when I streamed the album on Spotify! I guess it was from a deluxe edition because I don't recall it or maybe my memory is just poor! Anyway, I love this song, bopping to it while commuting!

It's so fun to discover an old song although it doesn't feel that old to me. Or maybe I'm just biased!

Scrub Back In

 Just watched Scrubs revival (thank goodness it streams on Disney+ here!) and I really enjoyed it. It's really a good continuation, acknowledging the time that passed but still has the same vibe of the characters we loved. It also successfully touched on new specific stories to this time without it going too much that feels so try hard. I'm totally in for the rest of the season and hoping for more!

Silver

The major change has been official this week ,and there's a vital confirmation that happened a while ago too. I hope healing will begin from this day. I know it's not easy but I do hope I was able to help to make the road clear or at least take the first step. I admit I got exhausted too but it's hard not to care.

Sponges

People using me as their shock absorber again and I obliged because I can't help it as well. I wish I could find a better solution to handle everything than just taking it all in. But I don't know anymore because I know there's no eureka moment that will magically change what they feel, how they view things. Lord, please help me to stay strong

Machine

 Crossed off one from the list but there's more to come! But I live in this kind of challenge. Hopefully, I can do my one thing tomorrow smoothly because it's a first for this new phase we are living in now.

Empty Out

 I need to power through next week because I decided to not force myself too much this weekend! It's a 50-50 feeling because I do need it but I wanted to get things done as well. But I was just not feeling it so I followed that especially since I struggled with coughs this week and recovering now! On to better week ahead and hopefully no unnecessary stress anymore, please!!!!

Joints

 So I decided not to do something to push things forward. I hit pause yet again. On one side I feel a little worried that I'm behind but on the other hand I think it's okay to empty out my brain so I can recharge and be on fighting mode again! I remind myself of recent events when I witnessed something crashing all down because of letting everything consume you completely

Resend

 Getting annoyed again but I have to be patient yet again! It's a small thing so I don't want to make a big deal out of it. But hopefully I won't get bothered again because self-realization please! But I don't want to be blunt so I just let it pass!

Structure

 So many changes lately but I'm trying to keep things on regular flow as possible! It is quite scary but if you just stare and ponder and worry and basically not move then nothing will happen and more problems will arise! Oh Dear Lord, please guide me in these trying times.

Zigzag

 I don't want to be bothered, but I clearly am, so yeah. I'm going to take some actions to protect what I worked hard for. There will be compromises; I have to accept that. I may lose out on certain things but I used to do that before anyway. Hopefully, this will steady the ship.I don't know. I'm confused. I could mess it up after seeing such big epic fail recently from another person. I don't want to be next.

Checked Out

 I have now been second-guessing what I should be doing. But like what I said self yesterday, I NEED to do this for them. So I have to toughen it up or else I will falter. I knew this would eventually come. Oh well....

Tissue

 Alright, I confirmed I expected but I can't let it bring me down because what I need to provide is priority. As long as I don't do anything wrong, it's okay, I will just let it be. But it does worry me because I've been on the same rodeo before but well I gotta be cautious then!

Relief

 So yeah after some very intense and insane series of days, I decided to do a pause today because the thing I need to finish can be done tomorrow. After what I've witnessed recently, it really is better if you don't give your all and make your life revolved around something because it could cloud your judgment and make impulsive decisions that would make you regret things!

Lands

I'm worried about yet another thing that hasn't happened yet, but you see, I will calm down. I will not meddle; I will let them do their thing. I shouldn't overstep. Hopefully, things will turn out okay and what needs to be done will be accomplished. 

Next time

 I was working on something that got me emotional in the end! I didn't saw it coming but it showed me the value of time really and not to take things for granted! Also, not waste time holding grudges and prolonging drama!

Flames

 My brain is so tired. My heart is so tired. But I can't give up. I can't afford to give up. I need to calm down. I need to control my emotions. I need to stay on track. I need to protect whatever peace of mind I still have left. 

Wallowing

 It hurts me to say that I'm running out of patience with empathizing. I totally get now why they had to distance themselves. And I need to step back too. I feel so drained just absorbing. I gave my best to boost the morale but you have to choose to rise up from it. Oh well, I need a little distance now. 

Adjustments

So...many...changes... I have to adjust and adapt to the changing tides.  I'm quite uncomfortable but I have no choice to march forward. I have to watch over their welfare too because challenging times ahead, we need to stay united and focus on one goal. Oh dear Lord, please help me. 

Messy. Messy

 Letting it all in again. Absorbing the negative energy again. Thinking that things could be worse and these are just little issues in grand scheme of things.  Have a deep breath then move forward

Main Shaft

 Whew, met my goal today! Hoping the rest of the week will be smooth sailing even if there's a lot of things that are challenging me (and yeah annoying me too but I try to keep things in check) It's gonna be a tough one ahead but I will remain focused. For now, I will take a well-deserved rest! I need to recharge!

The Muppets

 I watched The Muppets Show special on Disney+ and my heart was aflutter! I don't know about the theme song and the general feel is just full of wholesome fun! The opening with Sabrina Carpenter singing child and the chicken muppets dancing was pure joy! The end part is hopefully they could do more and I hope so too!

Swamped

 So many things to do but I will manage to pull it all off! I will need some help of course and careful focus. No time wasted. Don't get distracted. Focus on the goal. Let's do it!!!

21 years

My first post 21 years ago! It's been that long! Glad to have this online space for me to vent,ramble and basically unload whatever is on my mind! It helps really to be normal outside, haha. Hopefully, Google won't shut this down!

.

Circumstances

Some good things came in but some lingering issue is making me feel a little bit anxious. It's hard not to sympathize but not get drawn to the misery of others too because it affects you too. Difficult situation. Unfortunate circumstance. What a tough year so far. 

0314

Okay, processing some shocking news today. I had a feeling it would happen but I was hoping it was just paranoia but sadly, things are really indeed worse. I'm worried, deeply worried for the future. But I need to do my best for the future. Or what I could salvage from it. Scary times. 

Consultations

 I've been absorbing stress and anxiety from other people lately and man it's so hard to deal with. I am emphathetic of course but it will really test your patience because it doesn't seem like whatevery your saying is really being heard and you just feel like they don't want to listen but just wants you to listen. Bu I do feel for the agony, I'm pretty anxious too but I'm also practical that I can't afford to freeze my life because I have a lot of things going on that needs me to be in check always. Anyway, I do sincerely they will battle their inner demons eventually

Resurgence

 I absolutely how The Bloomfields' cover of Ale is once again popular! I bought the CD of thier album where this song was included back in 2007! Nostalgia of course but it's such a good vibe, makes you forget all of life's worries!

Reenergized

I had a good afternoon nap today! A good sleep clears your mind really! Yesterday was challenging so I needed this dat especially since I'm gonna face something stressful and challenging to up ahead! So yeah, let's go!

Disrupted

My mind was so preoccupied today! Of course, there were a lot of stressful moments but I had to be calm or else there will be chaos. I was a little annoyed because my system got disrupted but what can I do but yet again adjust! Things turned out okay in the end but hopefully there won't be big problems on the horizon. Please don't!!!!

Order

 Something that I thought that passed will likely haunt me again and it sucks because I thought everything's over already but nope it has to potentially come back to make me go crazy in my inner thoughts again! It was a big mistake on my part to volunteer myself to do something stressful because I thought I was helping out but eventually I just realized it's all because I got swept in by someone's else negative energy. Argh! I empathasized with that person but it really took a toll on me and now I'm scared of the worst case scenario yet again. Please Lord, guide me and protect me from my fear of things turning out in a bad way

Expectations

 Oh my goodness, two big things on the horizon that's stressing me a little but hey I can do this! Let's do this! It's quite scary to think about it now but I should not feel panic and anxiety early on! I can realistically do it with some help of course. The right balance and focus, let's do this. I need this, we need this!

Capitulo

 Hoping for good news tomorrow! I prod a bit to make the push to ask because we need it so bad. Personally, I also need to feel the security of having it around. I hope there would be more to come. Please, please, please.

Sides

 Fingers crossed for more! I went hard the past few days because there's a need for it and I also need. I still worry about a lot of things that can make stuff complicated but just gotta have faith that things will be okay. That everything can go back in order. But we really need more to come, badly need it!

What's Ahead

 Whenever I think about the future, which I do a lot, it often scares me. Both on personal level and the society as a whole. Time seems to move fast or maybe we are just way too conscious about it. Too self aware how everything is changing. So that's why I want to notice much anymore and overthink. Because it's a waste of time and also torturing yourself. 

Cool Breeze

I love the cold weather, I wish this were the weather during the holidays! But better late than never! It's such a bed weather, I would just love to relax! But the timing is kinda inconvenient due to ther other things but I will work it out!

Hot and Cold

 So much chaos surrounding me. Nothing explosive on the surface but it is lurking from all corners of my life. I try my best to stay calm, I do things to get my mind out of it but I really can't escape from it. Oh well.

Lease

 One of the early surprises for me this new year is nagsara na yung Jollibee sa Glorietta! It's been in the same spot since I first visited Glorietta as a child in the 90s. I'm sure they didn't close due to low sales because palaging puno yun. Today, I saw a sign  they are opening a new store at the One Ayala MRT station side. I guess it makes sense to move there because of the foot traffic but still, it's strange not to see Jollibee in Glorietta anymore. I felt the same way when the Mercury Drug and Wendy's Glorietta branches closed down after decades of being in the same spot. It's not a big deal I know but it's just a strange feeling to witness so many changes in a place you've known for so long.

Ten AM

Okay. Ready, get set, Go!!!! It would be hard but I can do this. I need this anyway so I can focus and reach this goal. It's for the better so let's go and pull this off while maintaining top form quality. I still have two to go for the next few days so I need to hurry up!

Purchased

 Bought a new book today! Death's End, the final book in Three Body Problem series which fascinated when I got to work on the English dubbing of the chinese adaptation. It's the thickest book of the three and excited to read it!

Ahead

 Out of impulse, I did something that is quite responsible but will also challenge me in the meantime. But I did the right thing because of wasting resources, I did something that will put some thing settled earlies than usual. Now, I need to be more cautious because planning ahead needs discipline for the represent. So help me, God!

Ate Aida

 While I was doing my weekly palengke trip today, I was sad to see the stall of Nanay's suki for tilapia already occupied by a new tenant selling vegetables. She hasn't been there for a few months already but it was still sad to see it permanent. She was very nice to me when I started taking over the palengke duties when Nanay got sick and she's always asking me how she is. Oh well, changes. 

2016

 So social media trend lately is people being nostalgic and romanticizing 2016! Well, it's been 10 years so I can understand how overwhelming it feels but I guess because 2016 is already modern so it still feels fresh in our minds. But times have changed lot in 10 years, the pandemic years added a lot of years in our lives while at the same time it feels so recent as well! Oh well, time flies!
