Portland 2025.🌲

It was an adventure getting up there, but I made it happen!!! Long story short: the booking agency I went through took my money, but they never finalized the reservation. No wonder no one could find it!!! I got to SFO at 4am to figure things out. I was scrambling trying to finalize another flight. Thankfully I was hella resourceful and I made it happen for myself. I did have to fork over some money, but I made it to the original flight I was supposed to be on. 😮‍💨

Isay picked me up at PDX! At this point, I hadn’t slept. I was a little delirious. So after Costco, we had breakfast at their place and we were all able to nap for a few hours. I was just happy to settle in. Cookie made my trip that much more fun! She reminded me so much of Beari. 🥹🐶

We did a little bit of shopping. I was really mindful of what I was going to buy. Most of my money went to food and drinks. I was able to buy postcards at Powell’s and Multnomah Falls. Lived out my Twilight dreamzzz. It was amazing!!! 🩵

I was still dealing with dumb thoughts about these stupid people, but it is what it is. I’m in the bay. Byeee! 😒😤

I’ve been trying to catch up on rest and sleep since I’ve returned. I hated my flight back because I was in the middle seat. My neck was also annoying me. I slept wrong the day before so that didn’t help.

I never want to deal with travel mishaps ever again, especially flying!!! I was so irritated. The booking agency kept gaslighting me too. “The reservation is there.” No, it’s not. Stop pissing me off. Had to file a claim with my bank. Never fucking again!!!

Anyway, I’m tired. Giants won! Woo. Trying to enjoy my time off. Before you know it, I’ll be back to work and school. I am not ready. I need some fun and spontaneity in my life. 😏

Good night.

More football!!!

Oh boy, this weekend was something. The Niners beat the Packers and now it’s back to the NFCCG! 😮‍💨 More football to be played. I’m anxious excited, but I always get this way. Woo!!!

Caught up with some college friends a few days ago. I hadn’t seen a lot of them since before the pandemic. I’ve known Kengar since I transferred to UC Davis in 2010. He went to the rival high school in the city, but it’s all good. He was so happy to see me since I dropped by after work. I was happy to see him too! It’s been 5+ years. He’s off to the Philippines. I’m so jelly because I need to work, LOL.

Me, Kengar, and Mel! UC Davis 💙💛

Just trying to relax atm. One more day of work and then I’m free! Birthday week for Mom too. Love her so much. 💗

I also have a lot of other things to tend to, but I’ll deal with it on Tuesday.

Highlight from yesterday: saying hi to each other. Always a treat! LOL. 😂

I’m “dating” again and I’m bored. No one is giving me anything to work with on Hinge. My goodness! Is it always gonna be this awkward?! 🙃 And this is just the talking phase. I’m like anxious already. WTH?!!

Well, gonna try and sleep. But first, video games.

Good night!

Self care.

I was able to decompress these last few days! I’m reenergized for the rest of the week. I’ll most likely be working during the holiday and I actually don’t mind. I’m all caught up with my shows.

Caught up with our great friend, Walter for lunch today. It was nice to talk and update each other with our lives. We got to window shop too. I bought myself some new books, a Marge baggu that I’ve been eyeing, a purple pen, and an eraser. Reasonable purchases. I’m starting to save up again which is important!!! I’m looking into getting a second job. Sign of the times. 🙃 We’ll see how that goes.

Hoping to sleep soon. I’m snacking though! Chips, salami, and some fruit. 🙂

Giants are failing me. Womp. I miss basketball and football!!!

Wishing you all a great holiday weekend! Take care.

Good night.

Happy Pride! 🏳️‍🌈💗

Wishing all of my dear family and friends a Happy Pride! You are loved always. Blessed to have y’all in my life and to stand proudly as an ally.

It’s been a weird work week. Trying to keep up before I’m off in a few days. 😮‍💨

I’m pretty tired. And unfortunately, Covid is in our household atm. It’s so inconvenient, but we gotta keep our distance!!! Still masking, washing my hands, and keeping away from crowds. But I can’t dodge crowds all the time. Just pls stay away!!!

Hoping to sleep soon. Wishing y’all a great week! 💜

Good night.

Happy June!

This month is flying and I’m making the most of it! 🙂 I caught up with friends on Thursday and tried Doppio Zero. Never been before so I wanted to try! I had the oxtail fettuccine and a Bellini. The food was absolutely amazing. I’ll be back for sure!!!

It was nice to see everyone again. We haven’t seen each other in months. Really thankful it all worked out. Afterwards we went to get ice cream. Salt & Straw!!! I went with a new flavor – Baked Brie and Fig Cheesecake. A very nice combo!🍦

I’m almost done with my TEFL cert! Better late than never!!!! That’s my motto. Slowly getting to where I need to be. Taking chances and staying confident despite my anxiety. Breathe.

Warriors won! 2-2 and back to the bay. Yee!!! 💙💛 Giants beat LA. 😎🖤🧡

I’m excited for a lot of things. Can’t wait! Hoping to sleep soon, but I’m such a night owl.

Happy weekend to all! 💗

Friendsgiving.

I caught up with my college friend, Dania! We bought lunch at San Tung and hung out at Golden Gate Park. The weather was lovely! We’re planning our list of things to do and visit for the holiday season. 🎄❤️ Can’t wait!

I’m a bunch of nerves. There’s a lot going on, but I’m trying to breathe through it all. 😮‍💨 My mindset – I can!!! 💜

Self care day for me. I bought a new book to add to my Giants collection. Can’t wait to read about Willie Mays!! 🖤🧡🖤🧡

I took a much needed nap when I returned. It was a good day.

Hope y’all had a lovely Monday! I’m watching Beauty and the Beast atm to celebrate its release. It’s been 30 years! 🌹 Take care.

Good night.

Catching up.

Happy Sunday! I finally got to catch up with Susan and Mecqué today. We had breakfast at Kitchen Story. They’re so much fun. I met their doggos too. 🥰

Afterwards, they gave me a lift to Fort Mason for the Renegade Craft Fair. I bought a few things – earrings, a beanie, and stationery. I love it all!

I’ve been playing a lot of Animal Crossing! Logging in hours and cleaning up both islands. 😊 November is flying. Please slow down. I’m planning to get a lot done this week! Work, applying to jobs, and wrapping up my certificate. I really hope I find something I like.

Niners 😭💔

Wishing you all a great week! Good night.

Breakfast at Kitchen Story.

It was our first time there! We decided to get in early to avoid the crowds. Good call by all of us. We haven’t seen each other since February 2020! We were at K Elements for our early birthday dinner. Time flies! Grateful that we made time for each other. 🥰🍳🥓

Everything was delicious! The Millionaire Benedict 😋 A nice combo of sweet and savory. My goodness!!!

Then I took a nap once we got back. I’m still pretty tired now. I fell asleep pretty early too. The lupus life. I’ll be okay! Going to nap a bit more.

Wishing you all a great week!!! 🙂💜

Catching up. 💙💛

I haven’t blogged in a few days, but I’d like to make it a weekly entry moving forward.

June is wrapping up and it’s almost July. I’m hoping to finish strong.

Today was a good day! The sis and I had dinner with our friends, Dale and Blake. We haven’t seen each other in a while so it was nice to catch up! We had dinner at Zazie. I would love to go back for brunch. #Chaud 😂 We had a laugh with our server. Good times. I hope we can pay them a visit in Boston!

I’ve been studying and I hope to finish an assignment this week. I got this!

Giants didn’t sweep the A’s, but we took the series! 😎🖤🧡

Now I’m watching On The Wings Of Love with my sisters. Yay!!

Good night and have a wonderful week!
