30-Minute Warning VI

So, what can I share here today under 30 minutes?

As I type this, it’s 20 minutes before the world premiere of the live-action series Voltes V: Legacy. I already saw the theatrical release a few weeks ago with Younger Brother and our cousins, and I like what I have seen so far. I’m excited to watch the series using the living room’s enormous Samsung smart TV.

Voltes V: Legacy premieres tonight, May 8, at 8pm (Philippine time) on GMA 7.

As of what happened at work today, I only have 1 simple but crucial task: review a part of a contract. I admit that I got a bit anxious because I have never reviewed a contract in my life, but I drank my coffee, took a few breaths, and worked on it. I was able to finish the entire worksheet before the afternoon. And I rewarded myself with a large cup of cookies & cream frappe with pearls, and I also bought a large Oreo milk tea for Mother. Thanks, Infinitea!

(The header image was an old one. I took the photo last April 2.)

And now I bought something for myself already, I need to avoid spending more than PHP 500 this week. I will buy an affogato or an iced tea at Satchmi, but that’s it. If I’m planning to buy that Bullet Club jacket from Pro Wrestling Tees (among the few things I want to buy) before May 17, I need to be careful about spending too much.

I know, I know. Buying the Bullet Club jacket is already spending too much. I need to save more. But… but… the jacket looks so badass. I really want it. Forgive me.

And time’s up.

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 XVII

OK. What can I type here in under 10 minutes?

This morning, I feel sleepier than usual. Mother noticed that, so in order to be awake, she told me to start working on this month’s billings. I also took a long, cold bath and 1 cup of extra strong coffee to power through the day. I’m done with the 1st part of the billings, so I took an afternoon nap after.

What else? I checked the photos I took from my younger brothers’ gig last Friday. I’m so disappointed that most of their photos – taken by my smartphone – are not clear. I’m also disappointed that I did not check the photos sooner. Damn it. I will take better photos and videos with my smartphone and DSLR next time.

Tonight I will jog again and Younger Brother will do his calisthenics at Three Trees. But I think I should do more than just jog. Last year I followed this aerobics workout on YouTube, and it helped me burn a lot of fat. Maybe I should do both jogging and aerobics again.

And time’s up.
