I miss hearing Kenneth say, “Wowwww..” everytime nagluluto ako. Medyo nakukulitan pa ko sa kanya dati kasi araw-araw nya kong tinatanong, “Anong pagkain natin?” Pero ngayon, wala nang nagtatanong ng ganun. Nami-miss ko yung dependency nya sakin pagdating sa food. Yung dating annoying, hinahanap-hanap ko na ngayon. Ugh life.


I have found my people! I am so happy that my choices led me to finding them. I invited my online-to-real friend, Xiao, for brunch to thank her for helping me with Almond’s trip to Canada. Tapos sakto, merong stamp caravan event sa favorite stationery store ko (26 Market)—na malapit lang dun sa brunch place. We went to the stationery store after eating. There, I met a few fellow journalers. One thing led to another, and I got invited to join their bi-weekly planner hangout.
A reaction/rant to a negative review I read about Emily Henry’s book, Happy Place:

Two weeks na ko sa Pinas at parang ang dami na agad nangyare. Na-o-overwhelm na ko sa mga ido-document ko. Anyway, everytime umuuwi ako ng Pilipinas, meron akong mga listahan ng mga gusto kong kainan. Isa dun ay KFC. Kaso sobrang na-disappoint ako:
Since medyo malungkot ang previous post ko, it’s time for my recent happy things!

Last day ko na bukas!! As much as I love this job, I’m not sad about getting a nice long break from sitting and typing all day. Nung nagpaalam ako sa boss ko na mawawala ako ng almost 2 months (pero binanggit ko rin na willing akong bumalik after that period), ang dali nyang kausap! That same day, nagkaron agad ng arrangement na last day ko sa January 31st (bukas), pero pababalikin nila ko sa April. Favorite na kita TL!
My current job is seasonal/contractual kaya may ganitong hanash.

Mukang ito ang theme ng birthdays namin this year: low-key. Sa birthday ni Kenneth, ito lang ang nasa checklist nya:

Woke up. Pinapakiramdam ko kung masakit pa rin likod ko. Parang medyo na lang.


I am so proud that I initiated an interaction with a workmate today. Ang weird pero parang takot na ko sa tao. Kinakabahan talaga ko pag merong potential interaction na magaganap. Para ma-neutralize yung kaba ko, kelangan ko ng practice. Gusto ko ng more face-to-face interactions with random people and nagawa ko sya today. Yay.

Je vais essayer d’écrire en français aujourd’hui. Hier, c’etait très froid même si ça semble chaud, parce qu’il y a du soleil. Je me manque la neige sur les arbres. Si ça va etre froid, j’aimerais voir de la neige.
I will try to write in French today. Yesterday, it was so cold even if it seems hot, because it’s sunny. I miss the snow on the trees. If it’s going to be cold, I would like to see some snow.
