Younger Brother – Page 9 – The Diary of The Deranged Writer

10-Minute Warning CIII

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

Once again, I’m not in a good mood. But time this, that should not stop me from writing here on The Dispatch. I will not be able to accomplish anything if I keep on letting my bad mood stop me.

Moving on… I got my salary today – 2 days after the actual payday. I’m not complaining though. At least I got my salary already. This time though, I’m more careful about spending my money. I want to limit my spending in the next 2 weeks at least. That means I can’t go out with friends for now and I would spend less if I were to go to my favorite restaurants and cafes.

What else? Oh! My Younger Brother is at the airport now. He is going to Cebu for the Sinulog Festival. I’m happy for him. He has been working so hard on his endeavors and he deserves a break. Have a fun and safe trip, my brother!

What else? Since my Younger Brother is on vacation, I’m expecting more workload in the next several days and I will need to go to my ENT visit alone. And I quote The Rock, “Just bring it!”

And time’s up.

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.

10-Minute Warning XCVI

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.
