IX: Fighting the Christmas Blues (Year XXXIII)

As I said in a previous post: Whenever I feel depressed, it’s either (1) I dwell in the darkness or (2) distract myself to feel better.

Today, on Christmas Day, I chose option 2.

So, what can I tell here under 10 minutes?

Well, at work, I finally finished scanning all the needed quotations. Tomorrow, I will run errands.

After work, I joined my Mother, Younger Brother, cousin and maid in going to Ayala Triangle Gardens. We had some caffeinated drinks at a newly-opened spot, attended Night 4 of the anticipated Simbang Gabi, and then we watched the lights show (something the family and I usually do every year). After the lights show, we had some pizza and pasta for dinner.

We got home at 10pm, and I’m so tired. I will start re-watching one of my favorite shows ever, Chuck.

And time’s up.

10-Minute Warning XCIV

I had a productive day today. Notably, I finished all the billings for November 2023. I just need to print those billings out and photocopy some reports tomorrow.

After that, I walked and jogged around Three Trees from 8 to 9pm. It has been almost 2 weeks since the last time I was at a jogging path. After walking and jogging for an hour, I met with my Younger Brother and we walked some more while we talked about our favorite food and drinks.

What else? Oh! Simbang Gabi starts this weekend, and I’m planning to attend the anticipated Masses instead of going to the actual Masses at 2am. Wish me luck!
