10-Minute Warning CXXXIV

So, what can I share here under 10 minutes?

This weekend has been great. I kicked off the weekend by gulping my favorite Jack and Coke Zero, wrote some drafts, and then slept late. Hello, Saturday.

And then when I woke up in the afternoon, I watched the WWE shows Raw and SmackDown and the latest GMA drama Pulang Araw. After that, I capped off my Saturday with a 2-hour walking/jogging session at my favorite jog path, hung out with my Younger Brother and our cousins, and then went home at 3am on Sunday.

Crap. My 10 minutes is almost up… let me speed things up.

Today I woke up at 12pm, had chicken tinola for lunch, took a bath, put on one of my favorite outfits, and then went to church with my Mother and cousins. After that, my Younger Brother picked us up, we went to the newest mall in the metro and we had dinner there. God bless Manam.

And my time is up.

10-Minute Warning CXXIV

Hello, Diary. I’m sorry for not updating here yesterday. The main reason for the lack of update is that my home’s Wi-Fi is down. Also, I was out walking and jogging last night and have reliable mobile data, but I don’t feel like blogging on mobile.

What happened today though? Other than working on proposals and watching a few Marvel Cinematic Universe films with my cousin Jake, nothing much.

See you tomorrow, Wednesday.

Song of the Moment XXVII: Johnny Cash’s “Hurt” (A Nine Inch Nails Cover)

Yesterday I didn’t feel like writing, hence the lack of a blog post. I just wanted to work during the day and then have my walking/jogging session at night, and I did those things. I feel better after walking and jogging around my usual jogging path.

Today, I woke up earlier than usual to join my Mother in her meeting with a major client. After that, we had cheeseburgers for lunch at 8Cuts and went home. On our way home, I was groggy because I lacked sleep, so I took an afternoon nap.

And then I entered into a bad dream. Again. I can’t tell the details of my nightmare (what happened and who was in it), but all I can say right now is this: I have been fearful of the same nightmare for the past 5 years and counting, and it feels so real whenever I enter into it. I hate it so much. And to make it worse, I woke up with my nose bleeding like a faucet.

And then I remember Johnny Cash’s version of Nine Inch Nails’ “Hurt”. How appropriate.

What have I become
My sweetest friend?
Everyone I know
Goes away in the end

That is all.
