30-Minute Warning XXXVIII

Well, what can I write here under 30 minutes?

First of all, I’m feeling a bit better than yesterday. I had a little mix-up at work, but I fixed it right away and eventually completed all of my tasks. And while I was working, I listened to my Song of the Moment, My Chemical Romance’s “Na Na Na (Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na)” and then their first album I Brought You My Bullets, You Brought Me Your Love. As I’m typing this, I’m listening to MCR’s legendary album Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge.

Secondly, what are my weekend plans? Not much. Yes, I will go to Mass on Sunday. Yes, I will write more at home tomorrow and Sunday. And no, I’m not going out tomorrow. I looked back at my spending since December 2024 (a lot of them were spent on online shopping), and good grief… my savings account is hurting now. I need to be careful with how I spend my money in the coming months, especially since a subscription fee doubled and I need said subscription for work. Oh, I really need a second job soon—a part-time graphic design job, at least. Please wish me luck in my job hunting.

Speaking of weekend plans… Normally, on a Friday night, I would prepare a can/glass of Jack and Coke/Coke Zero (my favorite alcoholic drink), open my laptop, and start writing on my blog. But tonight, I’m just writing with no Jack and Coke Zero on my table. No, I’m not forgetting my drink. I just want to shake things up a little. But now I should get my drink.

(Gets an ice-cold Jack and Coke Zero from the refrigerator.)

Oh, and since I need to spend less money in the coming months and to take care of my health, I will start drinking 1 can of Jack and Coke Zero only per weekend. Also, my family gave me a box of 12 Jack and Coke Zeros as one of my Christmas gifts, so I don’t have to worry about supplies of my favorite drink for at least 3 months. The first can from the box has been in the refrigerator for a week, and now I’m drinking it. To my family, thank you so much and I love you so much.

That’s all I can share for today. Cheers to the weekend!

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.

10-Minute Warning CXLVIII

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

I have 2 reasons to celebrate tonight with a glass of ice-cold Jack and Coke Zero. Firstly, it’s finally the weekend, and if you have been following The Diary, you know that this is how I kick off my break from the work week.

And what’s the 2nd reason? Remember my post about the 1st Deadpool & Wolverine teaser – the post where I mentioned I wanted a Deadpool half-shell mask for so long? After finding a local supplier, ordering the mask from the supplier, and almost 2 months of waiting, I finally got the mask! Well… almost. I got the package this afternoon and I have not opened the box yet. Why? As much as I want to open the box right away, I want to blog about my unboxing and review of the Deadpool half-shell mask, and I must carefully plan and document the whole process. Wish me luck on that!

And that’s all I can share for now. Happy weekend, everyone!
