The Sunday Currently Vol. 5


A new week is here! I don't why but I'm quite excited for no apparent reason. I just feel good about the coming days. Does that ever happen to you? I wanna dress better, smile more, and generally be more positive about everything. I love this kind of feeling.

Reading
Marriage-related articles. I'll admit I'm a little paranoid about everything and overthink things. I know someday I will get married, not because I'm engaged but because I want to be married to the man I love someday. With that, I just want to know what I'm getting myself into.  I know, I know, I'm in over my head.

Writing
Next week's to-do list. Surprisingly not a long one

Listening
Acoustic Lounge in Spotify. I listen to Spotify a LOT.

Thinking
About my uncomfortable experience earlier. I was driving earlier to the nail salon and in front of me was a jeepney full of young men. They were all gawking and teasing! And how could I not look at them? I was driving and they were in front. Ugh. I felt so uneasy. It was like being catcalled. Why do men have to do this?

Smelling
Fresh nail polish smell. Are you familiar with that?

Wishing
I can save enough extra cash to visit Dr. Aivee Teo. I wanna have artista derma experience. I've always been wondering if they all got lucky in the gene pool or doctors made them look like that. 

Hoping
For less rain because I want to get my car washed properly. 

Wearing
Bed attire aka as old ratty clothes 

Loving
The weather! I know I'm hoping for less rain (it's for my car) but I love the cool winds here in the probinsya! A real sweater/cuddle weather! 

Wanting
The new Archie! Where can I get one and are there still available copies? huhu

Needing
Heeled sandals. Not for the rainy weather but for adulthood. All I have are flats, all kinds of them. I need sexy footwear.

Feeling
Happy and sleepy but I know I will still read my night away. Why don't I just sleep when I feel sleepy? Why do I fight it then regret the next day? Why do I never learn?

I'm also feeling excited for the long weekend though I don't have a plan yet. What are your plans? 

How was your weekend? Good luck on the coming week! 

The Sunday Currently Vol. 4


It's technically not Sunday but whatever, it's still Sunday somewhere.

Reading
Work emails. I was away for a week and I try not to open work emails when I'm not at work. Do you open work emails any where, any time? I'm backlogged yet distracted.

Writing
I'm working on my to-do list because vacation tends to make my mind forget of my duties and responsibilities. 

Listening
To the annoying buzzing sound of the centralized aircon. I wish I have my earpods, which were stolen ggrrrrr, so I can listen to music while at work. Now I'm reminded I need to buy new earpods. 

Thinking
Metro Manila looks so depressing. I don't know if it's my mood but it looked so ugly to me yesterday. I'm also thinking, more on contemplating, if I can quit my current job and do other things that will make me happier. Not necessarily a new job but I need something happier than this. I need a reason for me to wake up in the mornings and jump out of bed with joy. Things are so blah with my current situation. I need something new. 

Smelling
Loveswept by Philosphy because I'm wearing it

Wishing
I'm in South Korea with Franco. I just got back yesterday and I already want to fly back to him. I'm wondering if it's really worth to stay here. I mean, what's the point?

Hoping
I can finish this week without punching someone on the face. There is this very annoying person and I'm like ugh. 

Wearing
My "uniform" -- black (or white) tee and jeans

Loving
My nieces! Seriously, they are the main reason I smile and laugh. They bring so much joy and love in my life. 

Wanting
More money. More money, more problems? Nah. More like, no money, more unpaid bills.

Needing
To get a massage or something because obviously this Monday hasn't been very nice to me. 

Feeling
Happy, lonely, and annoyed all at the same time. I'm so happy I got to spend time with Franco but bummed that we have to part ways again. I'm happy I have a job but annoyed at some stuff as well. I'm in an emotional rollercoaster OMG. I just can't with my emotions.

How was your long weekend?

Good luck on the coming week! 

The Sunday Currently Vol. 3


When did Labor Day weekend became a party time for singles? Seriously, I'm curious.

Reading
Funny tweets of what transpired today also known as the Pacquiao-Mayweather "fight of the century". I think we shouldn't be calling it that because there were far better fights but whatever. 

Writing
I SHOULD be writing my scientific poster because deadline is coming soon but it's Sunday and who wants to work on Sundays. -- I wrote this last Sunday and OMG still applies today! 

Listening
Listening/watching to YouTube room tour videos because I badly want to redecorate but I don't have enough disposable money for that plus I have been too lazy lately to just even clean out my closet.

Thinking
How many Filipinos are saddened by the Pacquiao fight? How much are we really affected, like, spending habits, etc.? Because after the fight I wanted to go out and shop and/or drink beer, anything to lighten up the mood. 

Smelling
Shampoo cos I just got out of the shower. Who doesn't love to sleep clean? I love it!

Wishing
For a better work week. Work has been different lately since my supervisor left and I'm basically running the show but I'm not fully qualified to fill in his shoes.

Hoping
I can accomplish everything on my to-do list. I always have one but sometimes they're too daunting. 

Wearing
This very comfy boxer shorts from Bench and equally comfy cotton tank top from Hanes (from Franco's mom).

Loving
How my driving and parking skills have improved immensely but I still have a long way to go. 

Wanting
A real vacation. Labor day weekend was meh because I worked and stayed home when I was not working. I want a vacation with people I like. I'm very particular with how and whom I spend my personal time. 

Needing
To clean out my closet and hold a garage sale and then use the money to buy new "uniforms" or staples. I have a lot of jeans but most of them are ill-fitting. I need more plain shirts because I live in them. 

Feeling
Energized because I slept the whole afternoon, had a nice shower and now having green tea after my Mom's home cooked dinner. Life is wonderful if we just appreciate the small things.

How was your long weekend?

Good luck on the coming week! 

The Sunday Currently Vol. 2

I love Sundays because of the serenity. Everyone seems to be more mellow on this day of the week.

 Reading
Blogs of some people. I unfollowed  a lot of blogs lately because they all seem so shallow to me. If the blog's purpose is to be shallow, then I need more personality from the blogger. Some thing like that

Writing
I SHOULD be writing my scientific poster because deadline is coming soon but it's Sunday and who wants to work on Sundays.

Listening
I was just listening to Nat King Cole. Something about his voice and his songs makes me feel loved.

Thinking
Of what I'm going to do this week. The kids are on their summer break and so the house feels empty. When my nieces are away, I have so much time on my hands. 

Smelling
Shea butter. My soap and hand cream are of the same scent.

Wishing
I'm still in Korea with Franco. Too much alone time sucks

Hoping
My wound on my left index finger won't turn into keloid. I hurt myself last time I was in Korea. I was exiting Franco's building. I was pushing the glass door when the wind fought back and my index finger lost the battle. I was going to meet Franco for lunch and I was running late so I decided to just go to the nearest convenient store for band aids. I was running in the cold with a bloody hand. The cashier felt so bad for me, she put the band aid herself. Love trumps pain. :P 

Wearing
Favorite ragged pambahay clothes

Loving
My skin lately. I don't want to jinx it!

Wanting
Ballet flats. I lack ballet flats, I can't believe it! I used to live in them and now I don't even own a pair. What happened?

Needing
Driving shoes. I never understood the importance before but I badly need one. It's not that I can't drive without it but not all shoes are comfortable to drive in. What's a good and stylish driving shoe?

Feeling
Mighty effin empowered! I can drive myself and other people around now. I don't have to bug my sister to wake up and drive for me and bring me to places. I just hope my parking skills get better soon.


Good luck on the coming week!

The Sunday Currently Vol. 1



I realized the other day that I haven't posted anything in this blog since 2015 started. I have a lot of stories, mostly mundane, but I can't find the time or the energy to write. 

Since I don't want to write something very long and requires deep thinking and because I have been thinking of doing this for a while and also why not, here goes.

Reading
Rappler and CNN because I need to know what's going on around me. I'm also reading tweets of random people just because.

Writing
I'm planning my week and my Moleskine planner is currently my favorite thing in the world. I cannot leave the house without it. Planning and writing it down is so therapeutic.

Listening
Today is one of those days where our neighbors decided to never stop singing. There should be a videoke police. 

Thinking
I'm doing the biggest purchase (so far) of my life next week and I'm all excited and nervous at the same time. I'm imagining how it will be like and how it would change my life. Franco is very excited, too.

Smelling
A combination of milk and cherry blossom because I just showered with a hint of white citrus due to my lotion of choice tonight and a bit of strawberry because of the Kitkat I just devoured.

Wishing
Honestly, for more money

Hoping
For things to fall in to place at work. There are so many changes going on right now.

Wearing
My favorite tank top and cotton shorts -- I wear them every week! 

Loving
This hair curling essence I bought from Korea. No styling needed!

Wanting
More like lusting (still) over the Michael Kors Jet Set Macbook bag because necessities vs priorities LOL

Needing
To lose a little bit of weight or just the tummy flab before the Holy Week. A lot of people tells me I look better with a little bit of weight on but I feel heavy and sluggish already.

Feeling
Better because my sore throat is gone but irritated because my monthly visitor is here (TMI) and when on my period, everything and I mean everything annoys the hell out of me.

Good luck on the coming week!
