10-Minute Warning LXXV

So, how am I today?

Today, I feel much better. I don’t have the flu anymore – no more fever and body ache. I can go upstairs and downstairs a bit faster again. I’m back to eating well and on time. And I can go back to work soon.

What else? Well, I had a problem sleeping last night. I woke up 3 times because I had a hard time breathing. My Mother noticed, so she applied some Vicks VapoRub to my chest. I also inhaled the ointment for good measure, and I was able to sleep properly after that. Thank you, Mother. I love you.

And… that’s it. That’s about it.

10-Minute Warning LXXIV

Hello there. I would like to apologize for the lack of update last Friday. I got the flu on that day, and it was so bad that I don’t even have the strength to blog on mobile. I spent the weekend in my room recovering and drinking lots of vitamins and fluids. Thank you, my family, for taking good care of me while I’m recovering. I love you all.

Right now I’m feeling much better, and I hope to get back into my regular blogging soon. I will keep you posted.

Notes to Self VIII

Recently, whenever my parents/bosses didn’t have a task for me, I did a few job interviews. And not one employer gave a job offer; not even an entry-level one. I thought all the rejections I have taken since the COVID-19 pandemic had toughened me up, but it still breaks my heart whenever a potential employer doesn’t take a chance on me. I truly feel like giving up on hunting for a web/graphic design job and just focusing on the clerical work that I have now.

Then recently, while I was binge-watching the American crime mystery/dramedy series Castle, I heard a quote from Richard Castle (played by Nathan Fillion) for his daughter Alexis (played by Molly Quinn) that hit my heart.

And that, my friends, is my 8th Note to Self.
