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.

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 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.
