10-Minute Warning XIX

What can I share here in under 10 minutes?

Mother, Father, and I ran errands at the mall this morning. And during the ride to the mall, my tumbler spilled my backpack. I got anxious for a second because I had a backup smartphone and a power bank inside the bag. I had to wipe those gadgets right away with a dry towel.

After running errands, I stopped by my beloved Satchmi and had my weekly affogato. I only stayed in the cafe for 10 minutes though because I know Father wants to go home before rush hour. And staying in the cafe for 10 minutes is better than not at all. At least I can say that I had my weekly hangout time at my favorite cafe.

After coming home, I checked my backpack and the gadgets. All of them are dry now, but it still bothers me that I spilled my bag and what’s inside of it. I hope I can charge the affected gadgets properly tonight or tomorrow. And damn it, anxiety. Stop bothering me.

As I type this, I’m also watching Voltes V (the anime). Thank goodness Anime Club uploaded the entire series on YouTube so I can prepare myself for the upcoming live-action series Voltes V: Legacy. The new series will start on May 8 at 8pm on GMA 7. I’m so stoked!

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 XIV

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

Oh, yes. Because I have been coughing for a week, I went to see the doctor yesterday. And thank goodness I did. The good news: I don’t have COVID-19. The not-so-good news: I have to drink 5 medicines for my cough and cold plus asthma. (It’s official: my asthma is back after so many years.) I know that’s a lot of medication, but at least I know what to do to get rid of my sickness. I hate being sick.

Father and Younger Brother also went to see the doctor because they have been coughing like hell as well. They were given fewer prescriptions than I did. I’m envious somehow, but at least they don’t have to deal with many meds like I do. And thank goodness they don’t have the coronavirus.

As for Mother, she doesn’t have coughs or colds. Thank goodness. I hope I don’t infect her or anyone else in the coming days. I’m currently wearing a face mask at home to be safe.

Also, I printed a lot of documents while dealing with a shitty Internet connection. I had to reset the modem, connect my laptop to the printer wirelessly, print the documents, and then do it all over again. And I did the process 5 times. Damn.

And here’s some other good news: the 11×17 print I ordered from my favorite cosplayer, Riki “Riddle” LeCotey, will arrive at home in just a few weeks. I ordered them last December 2022 as a birthday gift to myself and a “peace offering” to Ms. Riki because I greeted her with a happy birthday way too late. Then I had the prints shipped to my ShippingCart storage account, saved a bit of money for the item shipping from ShippingCart to my house for 2 months, and then finally had the item shipped to my house. I’m so excited to get my prints! Now I need to avoid death in the coming weeks.

And time’s up.
