10-Minute Warning XVIII

Well, what can I say here in under 10 minutes?

Frankly speaking, I’m so lazy to write right now. But like I said before in a previous post, I don’t want to ruin my blogging streak. I have written 42 posts so far, and I can’t stop now. So, let me just tell you what happened in my life today.

Mother, Father, and I ran errands for almost the whole day. We paid a lot of bills. We had a nice lunch at Manam (that Buko Pandan Sago was refreshing). And now we cap off the work week with a great action movie, John Wick: Chapter 3 – Parabellum. That’s the short version of what happened today.

Maybe I should write something about laziness to write on the next post. And I should upload a featured header image on this very post tomorrow.

And time’s up.

10-Minute Warning XVI

What can I share here in under 10 minutes?

Last night, I finally watched Voltes V: Legacy – The Cinematic Experience with my cousins and Younger Brother. I was so excited to watch it especially since I grew up watching and loving Voltes V. How was the movie? As a fan, it has exceeded my expectations. I cannot wait to watch the whole series starting May 8 on GMA 7. (And maybe I should do a full review soon?)

Last week, I may have spent more money than usual. And today I checked whatever was left in my wallet. I still have some money left, but I could have done better. I’m disappointed in myself.

So, here’s my plan: This week and, at least, until payday, I’m not going out unless it’s for exercise. Wish me luck!

Speaking of exercise, tonight I will do that again at Three Trees after a week of having coughs and asthma. I feel so much better now, thanks to the doctor’s prescribed drugs. And I’m charging my phone and power bank before I go out and exercise with Younger Brother.

And time’s up.

10-Minute Warning IV

So, what can I say in ten minutes after reading the last 10-Minute Warning post?

Oh, God. After waking up at 12pm, I don’t feel so good. On a Saturday, I get to drink an average of five glasses of my favorite Jack and Coke. But last night, my stupid self went for eight. What the fuck am I thinking?

Anyway, I finally got to watch Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings while eating some chicken tinola. I don’t want this post to be a movie spoiler, so I simply have to say this: I love the action scenes and how the movie introduces a new part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. The MCU is really good at world-building.

After watching, I took a cold bath and changed clothes. I feel a bit better now, but I want to feel better. So today I’m going to my favorite cafe and safe space, Satchmi. I cannot complete a week without going there, having my favorite affogato, and writing in my journal. I just hope I can find a seat right away because there are a lot of people hanging out there on weekends. (I’m happy that Satchmi’s business is doing great, though.)

And time’s up.
