Thoughts Medley
May mga times na gusto kong magsulat dito pero sabog-sabog yung thoughts sa isip ko. Di ko alam kung san ba ko magfo-focus. May mga times din na instantly, alam ko agad kung tungkol saan ang gusto kong isulat. Sa mga times na ganito, na wala akong mahagilap na topic pero andun yung desire kong magsulat, nagsisimula ako sa kung ano bang nararamdaman ko.
Ano bang nararamdaman ko?
“Ang lamig!”
So pwede akong magsulat tungkol sa weather at ikwento na nag-s-snow nanaman.

I intend to write last Thursday kaso sobrang bothered ako by something. Tapos kinabukasan maghapon akong nagiiyak. Literal na mula umaga hanggang hapon. Ang sakit tuloy ng ulo ko. Magaganda pa naman mostly yung ikikwento ko kaya hinintay ko lang na maging better ang kondisyon ko bago ko sila isulat.
Hindi pa rin ako sobrang okay. Medyo mabigat pa rin ang dibdib ko at may konting sakit pa rin ng ulo. Tingin ko okay na yung isip ko—I’m thinking more positively now. Pero yung katawan ko feeling ko napagod kahapon kaya meron pa rin akong residual physical symptoms na nararamdaman. I will try to eat healthier today at mag-workout para maka-recover na rin physically. Nag-yoga na ko kaninang umaga so that’s a good start.

My cooking enthusiasm continues! Tuwang tuwa ako sa pagluluto ko recently. Ang dami nya kasing benefits:
- hindi nasasayang yung mga binili naming gulay
- nakakatipid kami at nasusunod ang food budget namin
- homecooked meals are healthier
- happy si Kenneth na laging may food tuwing lunch break nya
- I feel somewhat creative pag mino-modify ko yung mga recipes na nakikita ko
Happy ako sa discovery ko na ‘to kasi ang dali lang pala gumawa ng fruit jam! Kala ko kelangan pa ng heat at pakulo, pero may simple version pala. Few months ago, bumili ako ng blackberries at na-disappoint ako kasi ang asim. Yun din yung nangyari sa blueberries na binili namin last month. Hindi matamis. Hindi ko titiisin na kainin yung mga yun kasi bukod sa hindi enjoyable, magkaka-heartburn lang ako sa asim, so nilagay ko na lang sila sa freezer. Gagawin ko na lang silang smoothies in the future para hindi masayang. Kaso hindi nangyari kasi nawala na yung hilig ko sa smoothies. Kaya ang perfect na nakita ko yung simple jam recipe na yun. Nagkaron ako ng idea kung pano i-consume yung sour frozen fruits. Na-counter nung honey yung asim kaya palatable na sya for me.
Since puro karne kami last time, naisipan kong lutuin naman yung salmon. Simpleng bake lang with garlic butter. I partnered it with quinoa and veggies para ma-utilize ko yung zucchini at bellpeppers. Gusto ko lang ng konting crunch kaya nilagyan ko ng potato chips on the side.
Eto mainit-init pa. Kakaluto ko lang kanina. Tofu at eggplant lang talaga yung nasa recipe pero since meron kaming tirang isang slice ng pork belly, isinama ko na. Happy ako dito kasi nagamit ko dito yung kamatis at talong.

Ang daming magagandang series na lumabas nitong January! May mga times na wala na kaming mapanood ni Kenneth (evening routine naming mag-couch potato), pero this time ang daming options!
- Can This Love Be Translated?
- A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms
- Shrinking (season 3!)
- Frieren (season 2!)
- Bridgerton (season 4)
Lahat yan sabay namin papanoorin ni Kenneth except Bridgerton (hindi sya fan) kaya nasimulan ko na sya kahapon. Episode 2 pa lang ako at okay naman sya. Mala-Cinderella ang istorya.
Ang pinapanood namin ngayon ay Can This Love Be Translated? Maganda naman. Kaso minsan, nakaka-frustrate yung subtitles kasi parang hindi sya na-itranslate ng maayos to English. Lalo na dun sa isang scene na yung sinabi nung bida, hindi akma dun sa ginawa nya. Kaya may times na naguguluhan kami ni Kenneth, tapos ip-pause muna namin para i-decipher yung words.

Before we go to the weekly breakdown, Best Buy and Bye-Bye of the week muna:
Best Buy
Si Cashew, bigla na lang hindi kumakain nung wet food nya. Samantalang dati, marinig lang nya yung pagbukas ng delata ng cat food, tatakbo na papalapit sakin tapos ingaw na ng ingaw. Sobrang worried ko kasi hindi raw magandang sign yung walang ganang kumain. May sakit daw pag ganun. Pero, ganado pa naman syang kumain nung dry food nila. Basta lahat normal except sa hindi nya pagkain ng wet food. I’m confused.
Since meron syang gingivitis, na-research ko na meron daw palang type of wet food na masakit for them. Kaya mas okay daw yung purée or mousse type, para hindi na nila kelangan nguyain. Pero bakit yung dry food kinakain nya? Diba mas masakit yun?? Pero ito ang sabi:
Okay, good to know. So in short (haba ng kwento 😂), kinakain na nya yung bagong wet food. As in simut sarap! I’m so happyyy 🤍
Bye-Bye
Nung Saturday, down yung mood ko, so niyaya ko si Kenneth na manood ng sine. Sakto discounted yung movie tickets buong January. Out of curiosity, ang pinili ko ay Marty Supreme. Bukod sa crush ko dati si Timothée, maganda raw talaga yung film. Tapos nalaman ko pa na dalwang best actor awards na yung nakuha ni Chalamet, so mas na-curious ako.

We watched Stranger Things season 5 volume 1 at sobrang na-excite ako sa volume 2! Kaso ang tagal i-release. Sa Pasko pa. Pero perfect timing na rin kasi on-call ata si Kenneth ng Christmas at malabo naming magawa ang aming Christmas movie tradition sa cinema, so manonood na lang kami ng Stranger Things kasi para na rin namang movie ang bawat episode.
Yung last Christmas movie namin ay Nosferatu. Para tuloy nagkakaron na ng monster theme ang Christmas movies namin (and I think I like it).
Stranger Things volume 1 spoiler alert:
Nung first time pinakita na na-eexperience ni Will yung POV ng demogorgon, naisip ko na yung possibility na maco-control nya yung mga monsters, at yun nga ang nangyare sa ending ng volume 1! (maybe even controlling Vecna sa season finale??) Sobrang satisfying. Will deserved this moment. After being helpless sa mga naunang seasons, yung tipong sya na lang lagi ang kelangang i-save, now it’s his time to shine! I love this for Will.
The thing I’m dreading is yung mga mamamatay before this final season ends (for sure meron!) Ito yung list ko ng mga characters na hindi ako sobrang magiging heartbroken pag nadedz sila:
- Nancy
- Lucas
- Joyce or Jonathan (dapat may isang matira kasi kawawa naman si Will)
- Maybe Eleven and Robin??
Habang naghihintay mag-Pasko, sinimulan ko ulit panoorin yung season 1 (I’m now on season 2).

It took me more than a year, but I finally finished The Graveyard Book. When I started reading it, I stopped at 20%, paused for 15 months, picked it up again, then finished it in a week.
Every time I read a Neil Gaiman book, my initial reaction is always, “I don’t get this. This is out of my league.” But I learned that if I just keep going and let myself enter his mysterious world, I would eventually be enchanted by it. I have to keep this in mind whenever I start one of his books again.
I currently have 38 books on my ‘currently reading’ list and maybe that’s just how it is. Maybe each book has its own time and place (The Graveyard Book was gifted to me by my sister last Christmas of 2020!) and I’ll pick them up again when the timing feels right.

Walnut’s okay!
Walnut’s health scare is over! Feeling ko hindi naman talaga sya na-poison nung lily kasi naisuka nya naman agad, pero sabi pa rin nung vet, kelangan syang i-monitor for 72 hours to make sure hindi tinamaan yung kidney. Thankfully, normal yung apat nyang blood tests and she’s in the clear. Ang nakakaasar lang ay yung pilay nya caused by the nurses nung tina-try nilang i-restrain si Walnut para kunan ng dugo. Ka-badtrip. Accountable naman sila ang they will cover all expenses related to her limp (dapat lang!), pero nakakainis pa din. I think nag-iimprove naman yung pilay nya and aside from that, she’s healthy and well and back to her old self.
