10-Minute Warning XXI

So, I’m done walking and jogging after an hour. What can I share here in 10 minutes?

Tonight I tried something different and stupid: blogging while listening to music and walking around a jogging path. I know. It is idiotic. 2 minutes into typing on mobile while walking and listening to rock music, I gave up. It is better to write/blog while listening to music or do a strenuous physical activity while listening to music. Doing 3 things all at once is too much. I’m such a stupid idiot.

Speaking of exercising while sound-tripping, I did so using my new AWEI T12P TWS earbuds. The touch controls need improvement, but as far as sound goes, it’s killer. I think I should write a full review about my new Bluetooth earphones soon.

And time’s up.

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.

30-Minute Warning II

So, what can I type here in under 30 minutes?

I have been in an adjustment period since January 16, 2023. I have been working in the family business for almost 3 months. And tomorrow morning, I’m taking a long break. I’m going to Cagayan Valley with Mother and Uncle Elvis, and the vacation lasts from April 1 to 6. Yes, it’s almost the entire Holy Week.

Actually, the long vacation is Mother’s idea. She has been planning her high school reunion with her friends since October 2022 (I think), and then she tagged me along. I have not said a firm “yes” to her right away. I only said “yes” 1 month after working in the family business. Weekend breaks are cool, but I think having a long vacation every once in a while is better for my physical and mental health.

As I said, I have been in an adjustment period. I have been so immersed in work, I have not replied to any of my friends’ messages except when it’s their birthday. I feel so bad for not replying to them. Tomorrow I will start reconnecting with them. I hope they forgive me for not replying right away.

Currently, I’m charging my Nikon D3200, Sony Handycam (yes, that good ol’ video recorder), and Samsung A52s 5G. I’m bringing all of those devices and trying on recording and document as many moments as possible. Maybe this is the start of my vlogging journey? We will see about that soon.

Anyway, my gadgets are almost ready. My clothes are ready. My toiletries are ready. We’re leaving tomorrow at 2am. And it will be a 20-hour ride. (I think.) We’re all praying for a safe journey.

And time’s up.
