Day 6.

I was pretty tired today, so I slept in. My sleeping schedule is messed up. I did take care of some important business regarding bills especially my student loans. 🙏🏼 Family and friends checked in on us today too. Everyone is doing well and I hope the same for everyone else.

I watched the news. I like to stay informed. And when I’m not watching TV, I’m on Twitter getting my info.

It was a pretty chill day. I did watch Crazy Beautiful You. Filipino movies always make me laugh. Forevermore was my fave back in the day. Jericho Rosales! ❤️

Dinner was good – Spam, eggs, and rice. Comfort food ftw!

Lastly, I finally watched Doja Cat’s mv for Say So. Super fun and retro! The song is so catchy. And that dude 😍 but he’s supposedly a mystery. Lol.

That was my Wednesday. Until next time.

Early morning thoughts.

Netflix kept me busy these last few hours. I’m still very anxious and stressed. 😩 I’m doing my best to breathe and think rationally.

Some other things on my mind are so trivial, but it mattered to me when I was a teenager. When I was young, I crushed hard. I think I still do that today. Anyway, I think I sought out a lot of validation from others. I was super insecure and I always felt like I wasn’t good enough. So do I revisit that or just let it go? I mean I definitely don’t need closure, but I just thought of this guy. To be young again??? Lol. I don’t know if I’d want to go back. I’m just in my head.

I’m pretty tired and I need to rest, but my mind is awake. Here’s hoping I knock out soon. Thanks for reading. Later!

Day 5.

Anxiety was real today. I mean I create my own problems by overthinking. All of a sudden, it’s this entire domino effect. Calm down, B. Lol. Thankfully, I was able to place an order for my medication because the test was processed. Whew. Delivery is scheduled for Friday. Hurrah!

I slept in again today. I had Chipotle for lunch. Leftovers for dinner. I’ve got a list of shows to watch on Hulu and Netflix. Becoming is really good btw. Tackling my reading list too. I watched The Wedding Singer tonight. I got to catch up with friends via text as well. Oh yeah, I also had Boba Guys as a treat. Still supporting businesses from afar. ☺️ And I can’t forget The Powerpuff Girls! I miss the 90s. Thee best.

Trying my best to stay positive. Doing my part social distancing! Keep it up, folks.

Be safe and be well. ❤️

Day 4.

Today officially starts my two weeks off from work. Sigh. I miss working, but it’s for the best.

I left the house today for a short time. I had to go to the lab to get my bloodwork done. No one was at the lab. Not typical for a Monday. 😬 It was nice to leave the house for a bit.

Shelter-in-place has been ordered for San Francisco. The twin and I will not be able to leave unless it’s for essential business, such as our doctor’s appointments. Social distancing is important! I will continue to emphasize that. Please do it for the greater good, especially for the vulnerable populations. Please be safe and well!

3/16 isn’t an easy day. Three years ago, our dog passed away. I always reflect and remember him. He was a loyal companion. He’ll never be forgotten. We love you, Laki! 💛

Taking it easy for now. I’m going to make a list of things to watch and read. Time to tackle that. I also want to clean and organize. Hoping for a nice and mellow week. But it’s tough trying to make ends meet for me personally. My anxiety is through the roof.

Take care!

Day 3.

It was pretty difficult to fall asleep. So I stayed up rewatching Set It Up. Glen Powell 😍 Very cute movie. I totally recommend it. Once I fell asleep, I slept in for a few hours.

I’m hoping to tackle Becoming starting this week. It was a birthday gift from a friend. Thanks, Brea! I’ll also be cleaning and taking care of laundry.

I do have to leave the house tomorrow for labs. Tests must be done for one of my medications. I’m running low. I really hope the wait won’t be long considering it’s a Monday. Might do some essentials shopping too. But what’s left at this point? It’s hysteria.

Please keep yourselves safe. Social distancing is so important. Time is of the essence. Flatten the curve! Have a great week. ❤️

Day 2.

I give credit to the original artist for the movie poster. I was unable to find the name on myhotposters.com. I’m in the middle of the movie. I have about an hour remaining. I like it so far. I can resonate with the film. I miss the old SF. The familiarity and the wonders of it. It’s kinda lost its spark, but I will always love the city. No one can take away my memories and what I remember.

Good old Saturday. I slept in. I felt alright once I had to really get up. I decided to make myself some fried eggs, sliced up an avocado, and topped it off with the everything but the elote seasoning from Trader Joe’s. I really like it! Definitely a nice addition to eggs. Then I had strawberries as a small dessert. My favorite fruit!

I decided to wash some dishes too. Washing dishes is my favorite chore. I put my music on and I’m in the zone. It’s calming for me.

Had Taco Bell for linner. Nachos BellGrande is my classic order & a supreme taco. 👌🏼 Perfection.

I was on social media for a bit. It helps with connection during this time. I even got to chat with some friends via text.

My last thoughts for the night. I will continue to support small businesses! I admire their craftsmanship and the love they put into their work. Thank you!

Planning to finish up the movie. Hope you’ve all had a good day. 💜

Edit: The movie poster is by Akiko Stehrenberger. She can be found on Akikomatic.com. I found her work on IG. It’s a dope poster. 👍🏼

Day 1.

Today was originally an in service day for work. So until Sunday it’s like a regular weekend. But starting Monday 3/16 up until the 27th work will be closed. It could potentially be for longer, but I’m hoping and praying it isn’t.

I obviously don’t have control over the situation and the same can be said for others. I’m trying to remain positive during this turbulent time in our nation + the world. It’s definitely different from my routine.

I’m planning to work on myself, but at the top of my list is rest & recharging. I will also tackle driving. These next few days will be me time. I also fall into the immunocompromised demographic. I’ve always been good about washing my hands. Touching my face is a different story. I will miss social gatherings, but social distancing is absolutely critical. I plan to blog everyday that I’m off. That way I can remember and reflect.

Sunny has been keeping me busy. I love his films! I Fine..Thank You..Love You is the best. I can watch it forever honestly. 😊🥰

Wishing you all well. Please be safe! ❤️

Tea time!

Before February ended, my sister and I got to celebrate once more with friends. It was such a pleasant afternoon. We all got to catch up over a nice cup of tea. I love my Fujifilm instax camera. Side note: I’ve been buying a variety of film. 💗

It reminded me of London. I miss it! Hoping to return in a few years.

I still need to finish entries from my London tour. I’ve been balancing a bunch of things these last few weeks.

I hope everyone is doing well! 🙂 Will update some more soon.

Change is inevitable.

Ain’t it the truth? We’re all evolving.

Go after what you want. Nothing happens if we don’t take action. Whatever it is you’re after, just go for it.

I’m doing my best to elevate myself. It’s needed in all aspects of my life.

First goal on that list: driving. I’ve had my license since I was 21. I don’t drive often. I’ve also had my share of accidents so it’s built up a lot of anxiety for me. I’m determined to get behind the wheel again. I might sign up with a driving school to get me comfortable again. I want independence. 🙂

Just some thoughts in my head before bed. I took a nap so that explains why I’m still awake. And I also watched To All The Boys P.S. I Still Love You. I liked it, but nothing compares to the first film. 💕

Good night.
