10-Minute Warning CXXIII

All right. What can I tell here in under 10 minutes?

I was writing a new Notes to Self a while ago, but I can’t continue and I’m writing this instead. Why? I have post-vacation depression.

It has been a few days since my family and I went home from Japan, and now I have post-vacation depression. I miss Japan – the cool summer weather, the flavorful food, the train rides, all of it. My legs are also sore, but what is more apparent is the depression.

Give me a few days to recover… or maybe weeks. Either way, I will see you on Wednesday.

10-Minute Warning CXXII

So, what can I share here under 10 minutes?

Remember when I said I was about to buy a Samsung Galaxy S24+? Well, I was about to buy one the night before our family’s flight to Japan. But after another reflection and some convincing from my younger brothers, I bought an Apple iPhone 15 instead. Exactly 7 days after buying the newest basic iPhone, I can say that I’m happy with my purchase. 2009 Deranged Writer – a person who wanted an iPhone back then – would have freaked out with said purchase.

Anyway, I will try to make a review of the iPhone 15 soon. I will also try to write about my recent trip to Japan with my family. I will try. I will try. Blah blah blah. I know I keep saying that even if I already have more than 100 drafts on my WordPress dashboard. But I will keep on trying.

See you tomorrow!

Song of the Moment XXXI: James Blunt’s “You’re Beautiful”

I just came back from Tokyo, Japan with my family this morning. How was the whole vacation? Japan blew me away. The cool summer weather made it bearable to walk for miles, the food – especially their sashimi – was amazing, I bought a lot of souvenirs and Foo Fighters albums without breaking the bank, and all of the tourist spots we went to were breathtaking. The only downside of the trip is that 5 days is not enough to enjoy Japan.

Well, I take it back. There is another downside at least on my end. After having dinner at a Saizeriya in Shibuya, I saw a beautiful girl walk inside the restaurant. She has the face of an angel. 23-year-old Deranged Writer might have the courage to approach her, but now I know better and just let her be.

To the girl I saw in Shibuya, I want to let you know that you’re beautiful and I would like to know you more. But then I quote the last 2 lines of James Blunt’s most famous song…

But it’s time to face the truth
I will never be with you

That is all.
