10-Minute Warning XXXI

So, what can I share here in under 10 minutes?

What a tiring day. I woke up before 8am, and it was a forceful wake-up. But I had to wake up and do my morning routine quickly to join Mother and Father on their weekly visit to a significant client. After the said visit, I tried to take a nap in the car – something that I always fail at. (I have never had a satisfying car nap.)

The sleepy feeling somehow went away after having fried rice and dumplings for lunch. While we were eating, I found out that Mother and Father had a hard time sleeping last night. It looks like we are all having a good afternoon nap later… but I didn’t. At least my parents got their nap after coming home, and I’m happy for them.

As I type this, it’s exactly 11pm. The more I type this, the more I become sleepy. It’s weird because I haven’t taken my medicine yet. And speaking of medicine, I skipped my meds again last night because I ran out of them. I still feel a bit shitty after more than a week, and now I’m worried I will feel worse. Oops.

Let me sleep now.

10-Minute Warning XXV

So, what happened to me today?

Since I don’t have paperwork to do today, I had time to get a fresh haircut and my weekly affogato at my favorite cafe Satchmi. And before sunset, I dropped by the condominium. Mother, Father, Cristy (my cousin), and Younger Brother are at the condo as well.

Elder Brother is out of town for work, so Mother and Cristy took the time to clean the condo and my brothers’ pet dogs and Father took a nap on Elder’s bed. And before Mother, Father, and Cristy went to the condo, Younger Brother was guarding there alone and working as well.

Speaking of my brother’s pet dogs, it was really nice to see them again. Manuelito and Ariana are so adorable and fluffy. Awww.

At 7pm, I went up the roof deck and took photos of the Makati/Mandaluyong skyline – or at least I tried. The winds are so furious that I had to double my phone grip strength while taking photos. I really thought I would drop my phone, but thankfully I didn’t.

What else? Well, I left out a few more details, but that is pretty much what happened in my life today.

And time’s up.
