Song of the Moment LXVI: Spice Girls’ “Too Much”

Last Monday, I felt so unhappy and unmotivated that I skipped exercise time and my favorite cafe time. So last night, I went to the mall, had a fresh haircut, and ate my favorite BLT sandwich at my favorite cafe. I also made time to write in my journal and planner. All of those things made me feel better.

Today, I finished all of my work tasks, and I wrote again in my journal and planner earlier than usual. Then I was reminded of a 2025 resolution I still haven’t accomplished: finding a second job. Yes, it’s early to tell because it’s still January, and my current clerical job is stable. But I have to be honest: my current pay sucks and I need to keep up with the growing bills. I need another way to save more money. That means I need to find another job—a well-paying part-time job—and I need to do it more strenuously.

Anyway, after work and reminding myself about a resolution, I watched the iconic graphic novel-turned-film V for Vendetta, and now I’m writing this while listening to a hit by the Spice Girls, “Too Much”. It was my favorite song from the English girl group when I was young, and it’s still my favorite from them now—even if some of the lyrics remind me of a painful memory several years back.

Happy Wednesday, everyone.

10-Minute Warning CXLV

OK. I give up. I will not force myself to blog twice today because I still feel weak. I rested early last night but still feel weak after waking up.

But my weakness did not stop me from running errands, having a haircut, and going to my favorite cafe Satchmi. I had to do all of them today because I expect a heavy workload this week. I also had to do all of them today in case I still feel weak.

What else can I share before my 10 minutes is up? Well… tomorrow is October 1. That means 3 more months before 2024 ends. That also means my Mother’s, Father’s, and younger brothers’ birthdays are coming up. “Octoberfest”, as they say. This is going to be fun.

Speaking of birthdays, I’m supposed to plan my birthday a few months from now. But then again, why should I worry too much about my birthday? And it would be nice if I’m not the one who’s planning it… yeah.

And time’s up.

10-Minute Warning CXXXIX

All right. What can I write here under 10 minutes?

Honestly, I’m too lazy to write here on The Diary today. It must be the somber weather. But I don’t want to ruin my blogging schedule again, so here I am.

Anyway, I ran a few errands yesterday even if it’s raining moderately or heavily. But I wanted it to be done with, so I braved the weather. After that, I had a fresh haircut and a tasty dinner at my favorite cafe Satchmi and then I went home.

As for today, it’s mostly work and I did not go outside. I found a way to work on my monthly billings faster. Usually, I finish all the billings in 3-4 days. Now I’m about to finish everything tomorrow. That’s 2 days faster. And I also messaged a few suppliers, too. Good job, self!

And time’s up.
