10-Minute Warning CXIII

So, what can I tell here under 10 minutes?

Well, sad news: The lowest point of my life happened 5 years ago today, March 25. I’m supposed to reminisce that day through a blog post, but… I can’t finish it today. My mind and heart can’t finish the story today. I’m not even sure if I can tell the story this Wednesday or Friday, but I’m sure there will be a trigger warning before the post.

And some good news: There was reason for me to be happy yesterday, March 24, because it was the 59th birthday of my all-time favorite professional wrestler, Mark Calaway AKA The Undertaker. Happiest birthday, Taker! I hope you had a blast!

And time’s up.

Song of the Moment XIX: Charlie Burg’s “I Don’t Wanna Be Okay Without You”

After my errands today and capping off the work week with an ice-cold Jack and Coke, now I’m tired and in a mellow mood, and I would like to simply quote Charlie Burg.

But I only think of you
Will we be together soon?
I’m thrown to the wayside
You’re planted in my mind
But I don’t wanna be okay without you

10-Minute Warning CXII

Hi, everyone. I was supposed to write a post last night but forgot because I enjoyed my midnight cardio and workout. Enjoying exercise over blogging… is that a good thing? Of course, it is. I need to take care of my physical health as much as my mental health. And honestly, I missed lifting weights. I need to lift more weights as much as I do a lot of walking and jogging.

However, I need to follow my blogging schedule next time – every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday (Philippine Standard Time). That means I should write before working out.

I will be back to regular blogging tomorrow. See you all!
