10-Minute Warning CLXV

All right. I’m supposed to write a longer post, but I opened my WordPress at 11:40pm. What can I share under 10 minutes?

Well, I really, really had a long day. I woke up earlier as I promised this week, but my sleep was not good, so I felt groggy. But I forced myself to do my morning rituals, fueled myself with extra-strong coffee, then ran today’s errands… and there were a lot of errands. My smartwatch is so happy that I got to walk 6,000 steps before lunchtime, and I honestly didn’t feel tired until I ran my last errand: having a watch fixed. I waited on the bench for several minutes, and I almost fell asleep. Looks like my extra-strong coffee is not strong enough.

With the caffeine out of my system already, I walked to the nearest Army Navy and ordered my favorite chicken burrito with extra orange cheese and a Coke Zero as my beverage. Once again, my heart and tummy are happy. (And this is why I’m fat.) After that, I enjoyed a slower walk around the area.

Crap. My 10 minutes is almost up. That’s it for now. Happy weekend, everyone.

10-Minute Warning CXLVIII

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

I have 2 reasons to celebrate tonight with a glass of ice-cold Jack and Coke Zero. Firstly, it’s finally the weekend, and if you have been following The Diary, you know that this is how I kick off my break from the work week.

And what’s the 2nd reason? Remember my post about the 1st Deadpool & Wolverine teaser – the post where I mentioned I wanted a Deadpool half-shell mask for so long? After finding a local supplier, ordering the mask from the supplier, and almost 2 months of waiting, I finally got the mask! Well… almost. I got the package this afternoon and I have not opened the box yet. Why? As much as I want to open the box right away, I want to blog about my unboxing and review of the Deadpool half-shell mask, and I must carefully plan and document the whole process. Wish me luck on that!

And that’s all I can share for now. Happy weekend, everyone!

10-Minute Warning CXXVII

All right. What can I blog here for under 10 minutes?

I have been re-watching the sci-fi crime drama, Person of Interest, for the nth time. I started binge-watching (again) when I went to Tokyo with my family last month. I’m on Season 3 now as I type this post, and I’m about to enter the Endgame trilogy – one of my favorite arcs of the show. I needed a snack and a Coke Zero during my binge-watching, but I’m too lazy to go out.

What is Person of Interest all about? It’s about Harold Finch (a reclusive billionaire hacker, played by Michael Emerson) and John Resse (an ex-CIA assassin, played by Jim Caviezel) attempting to prevent premeditated violent crimes from happening with the help of a surveillance system called The Machine. As the show progresses, it turns from a unique case-of-the-week story into an extraordinary grounded sci-fi series. Person of Interest is my favorite show of all time, and I believe it is one of the most underrated shows ever. If you have not watched the series, please watch it. You will not regret it.

I will make a review series for Person of Interest here on The Diary sooner or later, but for now, I’m enjoying the ride (again).
