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 XXX

A quick update : My headache went away yesterday and I was able to finish my workload. Today, I had a lot of free time and I feel a bit dizzy, so I took a lot of naps. I mean, I took a nap after breakfast, and another nap in the afternoon. After the latter, I felt so tired and I hate it. Naps are supposed to energize my whole being during the day because I’m nocturnal. Damn it.

What else can I say here? Yesterday, after finishing my work early, I went to Satchmi to write on my journal and drink their thirst-quenching house blend iced tea. After that, I went to see The Flash movie, and it was simply trippy and emotional. I might watch it again next week. And then I capped off my solo trip with a satisfying chicken quesadilla with cheese dip and a Coke Zero at Army Navy. (Before that, I have been craving for quesadilla for a week.)

And time’s up.

10-Minute Warning XVII

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

This morning, I feel sleepier than usual. Mother noticed that, so in order to be awake, she told me to start working on this month’s billings. I also took a long, cold bath and 1 cup of extra strong coffee to power through the day. I’m done with the 1st part of the billings, so I took an afternoon nap after.

What else? I checked the photos I took from my younger brothers’ gig last Friday. I’m so disappointed that most of their photos – taken by my smartphone – are not clear. I’m also disappointed that I did not check the photos sooner. Damn it. I will take better photos and videos with my smartphone and DSLR next time.

Tonight I will jog again and Younger Brother will do his calisthenics at Three Trees. But I think I should do more than just jog. Last year I followed this aerobics workout on YouTube, and it helped me burn a lot of fat. Maybe I should do both jogging and aerobics again.

And time’s up.
