Whoa, I’m another year older today! 🙂
Good night!

What am I thinking right now?
Well, that’s it.
Good night.

I think I should start doing this. I might have in the past, but I don’t remember.
Anyway, what’s going on in my head? Some thoughts before I sleep.
That’s it for now. Not much else in my head. I am getting sleepy.
Sweet dreams to all!

Yo!
It’s officially the weekend. 🙂 I was catching up on s4 of Broad City. I’m only 4 episodes in right now. So far, I like it!
Just reminiscing for a bit. I just recall the fashion in high school – polo shirts tied up with rubber bands from behind, velour, puffed up shoes, and moccasins to name a few. I also recall my not so nice crushes.
I can just remember how terrible these “crushes” were to me. Take this one guy. Let’s call him T. T found out during track practice that I liked him. He acted like a jerk the entire time. I never confronted him about it, but it was awkward af. Especially when you have all of these mutual friends on the team. I never tried to clear the air. I was just mortified. And to make it more awkward, he asked this other girl on the track team to prom. I was a bit 💔. Fast forward a few years later, I see him again at community college. I said hello and that was it. I’ve never seen or spoke to him again. Glad it worked out that way. #bye
I was super insecure in high school. I never felt like I was good enough. And even in the present day, I still kinda feel that way from time to time. BUT I’m still learning & growing. There’s so much more to do and see. I’m excited for the future! I must always treat myself well. 👑
So this is good night. But I’ll leave you with this quote.
Happy weekend to all!

It’s been a weird week for me. I feel off. I’m dealing with all of this other stuff too, but it should be resolved in due time.
January just flew by. I am excited for this week because we’ll be celebrating Mom’s birthday! Should be a wonderful time. 🙂
There’s rain in the forecast. I’m waiting for spring. Come on!!
We just ordered DoorDash. Lol. #junkfood But I’ve been good about my exercise. Yay!
That’s my small update. Will post my weekly entry later.
Good night to all.

Picture was taken on July 25, 2017. Beari was 6 months here. Time flies.
She’s been doing well this week. Nothing really stands out, except she vomited today. It could be connected to her liver issue. The vet confirmed that to me today. Beari will be on medication. Hopefully it helps her enzyme count and we can proceed with her spay surgery. Going to wait it out for a few weeks or even a month or so. She might need an ultrasound too.
I just feel helpless because she’s so young. She shouldn’t be dealing with things like this considering her age. But it could also be due to her genetics. 😦
We’re going to continue to monitor her and keep her happy. I hope she’ll be okay. Go Beari! ❤
That’s my Beari update. Hope everyone had a great day!

I must update my weekly photo blog, but today has been a busy Monday. I didn’t get much sleep because Beari was so fidgety. On top of that, I had some milk tea without boba last night. The upside: I got to watch The Last Jedi for the third time yesterday! Whoo. 🙂
I had to shadow to substitute at the school. It’s been a rollercoaster ride. Focusing and in the middle of the day wanting to go to sleep.
I hope to post a blog entry tonight. Please bear with me.
Happy Monday to all!

The Bay Area was shaking this morning. I was startled because I just fell asleep. I had insomnia due to Beari’s surgery day. She’s already at the vet. I miss her. We get to visit her later! I’m sure she’ll be happy to see familiar faces. ❤
Anyway, it was a 4.4 magnitude which started in Berkeley, CA. Everyone was updating via Twitter or Facebook. It’s a wake up call! They’ve been telling everyone to be prepared. Emergency kits are super important during an event of a natural disaster.
I was quite young in 1989, but I have fragments of the Loma Prieta earthquake stored in my memory. Faint, but still so frightening.
Be prepared! That’s the point I want to drive home.
Back to sleep I go. Happy Thursday! And expect a few entries later on today. #tbt

Edit:
No surgery for Beari today. Had to take care of labs. We’ll know the results tomorrow. She’s just happy to be home and is in good spirits. ❤️ She’s currently napping on the futon.
Laki. ❤
I loved and I lost. That sums up 2017 for me. I had to turn multiple pages and start anew. Change is scary, but absolutely necessary for growth.
I won’t have a month by month log of everything that happened this year. To be honest, I was so hopeful in January. I was looking forward to a lot, especially my 30th year. Everything seemed possible. February rolls around and Bianca was dealing with so much. It was up and down for the family. And maybe we were all preoccupied with that which is super important, but also realizing Laki was growing weak too. I held on for as long as I could. I really did. I believe he did too.
When Laki passed, nothing else mattered to me. I got a rude awakening myself in terms of my health and had to let go. After March ended, I don’t remember much. I was grieving for quite some time. Isolation was necessary for me. Everything was quite a blur. I slowly began to pick the pieces up and start again. I didn’t look back after April ended. It was time to take care of myself!
Summer was a period of relaxation. I had so much time and I’m grateful for that. I found my motivation. I landed a new position come August. I took that jump! And I’m glad I did. I’m surrounded by awesome and supportive co-workers. I’m so appreciative of them. THANK YOU SO MUCH.
February still sticks out in my mind. I got to go to Vegas and hang with the BFF for our birthdays. Unfortunately, Bianca was unable to join us. We gotta plan the next trip (you’ll be there, Bianca!!). We stayed in the Aria, eating at the buffet, dining at momofuku + milk bar, playing some games at the casino, etc. We all need fun! More traveling needs to be done in 2018.
I’m still hopeful for the New Year. 2018, I’m ready. Wishing you all a Happy 2018! Enjoy the night.
With love,
b
P.S. Thank you, Houston Astros! 🙂
I’ve been talking about them a lot lately. The holiday season is always really difficult. I miss wrapping presents together. I miss the family parties. And most of all, I miss their presence. They both gave me reassurance and so much life advice.
I’ve done a lot of reflecting this week. My break is winding down. Staying up and sleeping in has been fun. It reminds me of high school.
As this new year approaches, I want a clearer picture of my goals and where I’m headed. I’m so anxious for 2018, but I know big things are in store. I’m ready for the ride.
I’ll write a much more thorough entry of my 2017 in a later post. Most likely New Year’s Eve.
Happy Friday! 🙂

let me think.
