10-Minute Warning CV

What can I tell here under 10 minutes?

Right now, I’m outside Mow’s. I just watched my younger brothers’ band and I recorded their whole set. Awesome performance as always! I also watched Jetcoaster and Sunflower Station for the 1st time. Great set from them! I should check out their songs later. And I’m looking forward to seeing Autotelic and Ang Bandang Shirley in a few minutes.

What else? Well… I’m having a hard time posting and refreshing my feed on X (formerly Twitter). I wonder what’s going on.

10-Minute Warning CIV

All right. What can I write here under 10 minutes?

Today I don’t feel like writing about how my day went. But what I can share are my plans for The Diary in the next few weeks.

On January 31, 2024, Wednesday, I will be publishing my post-birthday letter to my ultimate hero, Dave Grohl of Foo Fighters. Right now I’m still working on it, and I hope I don’t fuck it up whether my idol reads it or not.

On February 6, 2024, Tuesday, The Diary turns 1 year old! And in celebration of that, I will post the lessons I learned after I blogged regularly for a full year.

And oh! As for the lack of header images on my posts lately, that’s because my software subscription has expired and I honestly cannot afford it for now. I hope to turn things around soon. In the meantime, no header images.

Wish me luck!

Song of the Moment VIII: Matchbox Twenty’s “Unwell”

Today was an OK day for me. I went to the ENT to have my ears checked and cleaned. (I can hear better now; it’s like I have Daredevil’s heightened hearing now.) I went to pay my monthly bills. I had lunch and wrote in my journal at my favorite spot Satchmi. I checked the new Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra at a Samsung store. I had some afternoon drinks with my Mother and cousins. Then we went home and I quickly worked on a document for next week.

But tonight, I started remembering that one thing that broke my heart, and now I’m mentally unwell. Let me quote that Matchbox Twenty classic.

But I’m not crazy, I’m just a little unwell
I know, right now you can’t tell
But stay a while and maybe then you’ll see
A different side of me

I’m not crazy, I’m just a little impaired
I know, right now you don’t care
But soon enough you’re gonna think of me
And how I used to be

Now let me dwell in the darkness once again.
