10-Minute Warning CLXXVIII

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

Today at work, I had only a few tasks, and I finished them with ease. It has been weeks since the last time I only had a handful of workload, and I’m relieved.

So, work’s over, my parents ran many errands, and I’m all alone in the house. What should I do?

Then the sadness started to sink in. I can feel this is the kind of melancholy that I experienced almost a month ago—alone in the house, with my thoughts, and with or without my favorite Jack & Coke Zero. And usually, when I feel this kind of sadness, I would just dwell on it but I would also not do anything rash.

But today, I did not feel like drifting in the darkness for long. Instead, I watched a few films on Netflix: Back in Action (a spy action comedy film starring Jamie Foxx and Cameron Diaz) and all of two Extraction films (starring Chris Hemsworth as mercenary Tyler Rake.) The impromptu movie marathon (plus the sirens I heard that reminded me of the greatest mathematician of all time, Scott Steiner) distracted me from the sadness.

In other news: I’m really tempted to have my favorite Jack & Coke Zero tonight, but I need to resist. Drinking said drink is my Friday night ritual, and I don’t want to ruin that. Not tonight at least.

…and my time’s almost up. See you in the next post.

Song of the Moment LXIX: My Chemical Romance’s “Na Na Na (Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na)”

I read my post from yesterday, and… man, I sounded so sad. And you know what? My time for sadness is done for now, and I need to get back up. I can’t stay sad for long.

To fuel myself and bounce back again, I’m listening to an absolute banger, the ferocious “Na Na Na (Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na)” by My Chemical Romance. It’s my favorite song from their fourth studio album Danger Days: The True Lives of the Fabulous Killjoys.

And a pro wrestling trivia: “Na Na Na (Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na)” is the theme song of WWE’s Tables, Ladders & Chairs PPV event in 2010. I’m pleasantly surprised that an MCR song became a song for a WWE event.

The amazing music video of My Chemical Romance’s “Na Na Na (Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na)”.

The weekend is almost here. Let’s fucking go.

10-Minute Warning CLXIII

OK. What can I tell here under 10 minutes?

Today has been a sad day for me.

I woke up feeling sad. I’m sad when I had my breakfast. I’m sad when I took a bath. I’m sad when I opened my laptop and worked for a few hours. I’m sad when I had my late lunch. I’m sad when I looked for a job. I brought my sadness to my afternoon nap, and I woke up again still feeling sad. I’m sad when I had my dinner. I’m sad when I watched the movie Meet Joe Black, and I’m still sad while I’m writing this.

And all of this, I don’t know why I’m sad. All I know is that I’m sad, and I just hope I will not be sad tomorrow.
