XI: Full Circle I (The Diary’s 1st Anniversary)

The last time I celebrated a blog anniversary was in 2008. I have been using WordPress for a year, and I have a different name and persona. Since then (evolving into The Deranged Writer and all), either:

I blogged for several months, stopped blogging, and gave my blog a hard reset, or…
I forgot to acknowledge my blog anniversary.

That’s why it is so sweet to celebrate my anniversary today after many attempts and many years of blogging regularly. (Even if many people don’t read blogs anymore.) Good job, self!

So, what did I learn, and how did I blog frequently? Here are the things I learned and my writing process on The Diary. (Buckle up because this is going to be a long post.)

10-Minute Warning XLIX

All right. What can I tell here in under 10 minutes?

Well, for the 1st time ever, I’m blogging in a bar. Yes. A bar. Why am I blogging in a bar? I almost forgot to blog today, and I only remembered at 10:35pm. Oops.

10-Minute Warning XXIII

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

I’ll make this quick. I have been sneezing all day, and it’s so annoying. I think I got it from a dusty alarm sensor? I don’t know. Anyway, I already drank an antihistamine, but I’m still unwell and I can’t do any work properly. It’s like I’m expelling my soul from all of the sneezing. Fuck this shit.

As for any updates here on The Dispatch, I still don’t have a header image for the previous post and also on this post. As I said, I can’t do any work properly because of my constant sneezing. I will work on that tomorrow or on Friday.

And speaking of Friday, Gratitude Log, the new blogging series on The Dispatch about being thankful, debuts this Friday, May 24, 2023, at 10pm (Philippine time).

Oh, I truly hope I become well tomorrow.

And time’s up.
