10-Minute Warning CLXIV

Hi. What can I write here under 10 minutes?

For the past 3 weeks, I have been sleeping for more than 8 hours and I still wake up later than usual. I’m grateful that my sleep is good, but it goes to the point that I wake up almost before lunchtime, and I could have spent the extra hours doing productive things instead of sleeping more. As medical experts would say, 8 hours of sleep is ideal. And I’m not really a morning person, but to help in the family business and be more productive overall, I need to practice waking up earlier again.

So, tonight, I’m doing my nightly routine earlier so I can sleep better and earlier and eventually wake up refreshed, energized, and, well, earlier. I’m almost finished with my nightly routine as I type this post, so I feel accomplished already. I hope I will get used to this change of habit in 3 weeks. Good luck to me.

Have a great week, everyone!

Song of the Moment LXVIII: My Chemical Romance’s “Disenchanted”

This week, I have decided to listen more to one of my favorite bands when I was in high school, My Chemical Romance. And yesterday, I have been listening to their iconic third studio album, The Black Parade.

Setting aside The Black Parade album’s concept around the character “The Patient”, whenever I listen to the album, I remember my last few months in high school. I remember the day I brought the album on campus discreetly and played it inside our classroom. I remember an old friend (a My Chemical Romance fan since day one) who recommended me to listen to the band’s first album I Brought You My Bullets, You Brought Me Your Love, and I did so long after. And I remember the night when I wrote the good and bad parts of my senior prom on my first blog, I was drinking an ice-cold Coca-Cola, and track twelve of the album (and one of my favorite tracks as well), “Disenchanted”, was playing in the background.

Oh, the memories. And tonight, “Disenchanted”, is on repeat.

My Chemical Romance’s “Disenchanted”.

That is all.

10-Minute Warning CLXI

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

Well, today at work, I ordered some spare parts, I got those parts earlier than expected, and I finished all of today’s paperwork on time. I feel so productive and happy after that. And after work, I started watching Daredevil again on Disney+ in preparation for the upcoming series Daredevil: Born Again. (The new series about The Devil of Hell’s Kitchen will be released on March 4, 2025.)

Tomorrow, I’m expecting a bit more work. I’m finishing work early though and then I’m going out to an event at night. I’m an introvert; I rarely go out during weekends and I’m not that good at socializing. But I’m expecting some socializing during the event that I’m going to, so good luck to me. Setting aside the socializing aspect, I’m pretty excited for tomorrow night.

What else? Well, that’s it. That’s for now.
