10-Minute Warning XV

So, what can I tell here in under 10 minutes?

I’m typing this on mobile while my younger brothers, their bandmates and I are on the way to Cavite. This is the 1st time I’m blogging while on a moving vehicle, so I’m only focused on writing. I can’t make a featured header image here as of now.

Tonight I saw my younger brothers and their bandmates perform (and killed it, as usual) at a bar in Menlo, Pasay. Last night, I also saw them perform at a bar just beside tonight’s venue. I love seeing my brothers’ band live while I gulp on a few beers and cocktails. I usually don’t go out at night, so I tend to enjoy the nightlife whenever I do go out.

And because I saw my brothers’ band tonight, I was not able to go to my favorite busker’s birthday gig. When I have to choose between my brothers and another favorite solo act or band, I choose my brothers every time. And there was also a dress code for the gig (which is a school outfit; student, admin, whatever) but I don’t want to ruin Flannel Friday. (That’s a weekly habit of mine when I wear flannel every Friday, no matter what the weather is.)

And oh! I have been drinking alcohol more than usual yesterday and tonight. I think that’s all right because I rarely drinking too much booze. I drank this cocktail with Red Bull, Sprite and gin, this cocktail that tastes like peach, and San Mig Light.

And time’s up.

Listen II: Foo Fighters’ “Rescued”

Today, it was an OK day for me. I have done most of my daily rituals, and I didn’t do that much work. In the afternoon, I had to endure the hot summer and ran an errand at the city hall. After that, I enjoyed a bit of Coke Zero while watching the Netflix special Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: Once & Always. (The Power Rangers fan in me is happy seeing the old cast and the updated morphing sequences.)

And then came dinner time. I was enjoying my mushroom soup, fried chicken, and brown rice when suddenly I saw a YouTube notification from my favorite band of all time, Foo Fighters. They uploaded a lyric video of their new song “Rescued”. And, of course, I shouted for joy like the elated Foos fanboy that I am.

10-Minute Warning XI

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

For the 1st time since I started blogging more frequently, I feel so lazy to write. But I think it would help me stop being lazy if I talk about it here. Right, Dispatch? Thank you for understanding. Now I’m ready to write again.

Oh! Today was a bit productive at work. Around lunchtime, I joined Father in surveying a condominium for the 2nd time. And this time we have company – air-con technicians from another firm. I believe my dad is overseeing the whole installation? We will return to the condo and check the installation process tomorrow morning.

After today’s survey, Father and I went home, ate some air-fried chicken, and napped. We woke up at 6pm, and our local version of Family Feud was on TV. We were supposed to go to the mall with Mother and have a haircut tonight, but perhaps we all got lazy. I hope we can have our haircut before we leave for our Cagayan trip this coming Saturday.

Speaking of Saturday, last Saturday, March 25, I was sad. Why? March 25, 2019, was the day I almost died, and March 25, 2022, was the day the drummer of my favorite band Foo Fighters, Taylor Hawkins, died. I’m supposed to write about what happened to me and a tribute to Taylor, but I’m too sad to even start a draft. Maybe next time.

And time’s up.
