I'm getting the hang of my new Lumia 625 phone. Today was straightforward go to work and go home day. I don't know why I feel so lazy on Wednesdays. When I got home at 10:30pm, I had dinner, played one game of Starcraft 2, watched The Legal Wife with my mom (laughs), and returned with a Civ 5 session. I also am getting used to Viber. Also as I have an intimate reason why I should use Viber, I should learn it!
I've never had stomach flu before. I don't know how it feels. My ate's girl has a stomach flu. I'm confident that she's fine now. She's all prayed for. It's all good, sweetie. Labels: 365-project

Tuesday. We've been told that work would be slow for a week. I don't know if I should be happy, sad, relieved or annoyed. Anyway, come what may. I've already prayed for pocket money on my Philippines vacay trip. I had nilagang baboy for lunch today. Work was pleasant for me. I left the office at 9:30pm.
At long last, I've been able to figure out how to continue my Arbiter novel. It's one of my primary novels right now. And I think my draft and my ideas are exciting enough to keep it alive and well. I have two future chapters in my head. I just need a draft at least. Now I have to figure out my 3-shot short story codenamed '2C'. I don't know what got over me writing a shoujo romantic short story. Labels: 365-project

I woke up at 3pm. I was half-asleep when I heard my phone vibrating. I forgot checking my phone, but it got drained. Speaking of phone, I got a new phone now. My brother got me a new one. I feel blessed. Truly. Because I also discovered something else near Polo. I'll keep it a secret first. My new phone is a Nokia, a soon to be phased out one. I got a Lumia 625. To be honest, I just need a phone. It doesn't have to be fancy. I'm not one of those folks trying to stay current or stay ahead having the latest model. I do that with other gadgets. I'm studying it right now and adding my contacts again. It's a good phone. The camera is a bit bad though, but I don't really care. It's free. National calls and the text are free. I don't have a data plan, but I can change that, but again, I'm not complaining. I also finished a layout today. I'm trying to beat my April deadline. Also, I should start checking how to sign up for a credit card. Believe it or not, I still don't have a credit history. To my future self, I hope you have a credit card already. Labels: 365-project

I woke up at 8:30am, and I got ready for church. I was greeted a good morning by that special girl from the otherside of the world. It made my day. Really.
While sipping on my hot coco, I heard that there's a potluck today at church. I showered and we left quarter to 10am. My OCD kicked in when I got inside the car. I know I locked the door, but I got an annoying feeling of uncertainty and regret knocking on my head. We turned around and I double checked everything inside the house.
9:58am. We're in the church. We had a guest.
The service went well. I'm pleased that my pupil, aha, is now able to play a 4-4 beat. He needs more practice, but it's definitely a progress. He wasn't able to play any simple beat in the past. I'll give him two more months and he'll master a running fill.
We got home around 1:30pm. I'll say, my mom argued again with my sister. It's about housework and how stressed my mom is. Anyway, what's new? It should work both ways. My sister should focus more work at home. But mom should give her credit for the work she's already doing at home. I mean, she cleans the kitchen before my mom goes home. Anyway, I think everything's settled now. I hope. Oh God, I hope so. It's ripping me out too. This replay of an argument.
There was a Bible study in our place in the evening. I'm glad that my brother made it. They were supposed to visit and check the invitation design I made. But it just so happened that my Pastor scheduled a Bible study in our home. I can say that my mom is very happy. It's the only thing that's missing. I mean, both my brother and my sister-in-law are the only folks missing in the picture. My brother is super hot in the ministry back in the Philippines. I don't know what really happened when we got here. Maybe work got in the way. I can't say. Only he can answer. But I can only pray for him and persuade him. I'm also happy that he made it today.
Played Civ 5 from 10pm onwards. The invitation design has been finalized. I'm looking forward to Monday. Labels: 365-project

I had somewhat of a good sleep, but I still struggled on my bed. I'm not complaining much. I'm just complaining that it's another Saturday shift. Fun fun. Yesterday was my late grandpa's birthday. My first five hours were actually easy. At 4pm, things got real annoying. But more importantly, I made some new friends in the office. I came home at 5:30pm. I was just happy that I was home. Fasting was done, and so I had dinner and lazed a bit before turning in early. I planned to nap, and wake up to tie some loose ends, but I guess sleep visited me. I changed my mind.

It's my Friday day off. Just yesterday, call it pessimistic thinking, but it's more of a realist's thought, I told myself that Friday's just going to zoom by. It kind of did. I woke up at 3pm. When I jumped off my bed, I was still hesitant. I got up to search for something to eat so I can activate myself kicking. The truth is, I should've woken up early, but I decided not to. Sleeping in is my inborn disease.
Somehow I've finished the invitation today. I've designed 4 parts, the covers and the content. I also started designing a small blog layout for my fanfiction. I think it's bleh. I also resumed writing on my novel, which is good. I aim to update across my boards before the end of April.
If I'm going to teach the youth on Sunday, I still have to review my material. But I think our Pastor has shifted the attention into something else. So our service format has changed a bit. It's almost time to have our own church building.
My Friday is pretty incomplete. I'm not looking forward to Saturday. But whatever. These Friday drive-by should stop. Next week I'm going to make sure I get the most out of my Fridays. Labels: 365-project

Thursday was simple enough. I did a little bit of level design and I played videogames in my off time. Then I started working on the debut invitation. My sister wanted to give it a passport feel. I got it covered. I just started, but it's coming along pretty fine. I also discovered Abandoned Pool's album named Humanistic. Good find. It's awesome. Labels: 365-project

Pretty weird Wednesday. Maybe it's just the stress creeping in on me, but I felt really bummed in the office today. 8pm, they gave me a more difficult project. Sigh. I'm just happy that I left the office 10 minutes early. When I got home, I started collecting stuff material for the invitation design. And then I also surveyed my other projects. My videogame has gone to a halt. Level designing is tough for me. I'm more on story telling, but I have to do everything in this videogame. And I mean everything. I've already mentioned the loaded work. If I won't beat the June deadline, I don't know when I'll finish. But I'm pushing everything on June. Labels: 365-project

Started the day with a smile. I watched and finished an anime series this early morning. I was singing in my bed too. Worship songs. Until I got was able to sleep. It was time to start Tuesday and it wasn't really chilly outside. All I could say is that today's work in the office is real tough. It's unusual that there are a lot of angry people in the office. There's not really much to tell. I'm hanging out in the cafeteria and I can't wait to go home. Just an hour left. Let's push. I held off changing my weekday schedule, because there's no sense. What I want to change is my weekend, but since it's mandatory to have either a Sunday or a Saturday, again, what's the use of changing my schedule? I just want to write this random thing: they made a color change to my username at Mangafox yesterday. I thought I had become a contributor, but then when I checked this evening, they turned it back to green, a normal member. Sigh. I was excited for nothing. Just a glitch, perhaps. But a sweet glitch for me, if ever they haven't fixed it. It's also a good game with SC2. Won two games in a row, and there was even a handicap on the first game -- 2v3. Come to think of it, the second game was also 2v3. That blue player barely did anything. Labels: 365-project

I still haven't published the three missing entries today, (107, 108, 109) but they're all in my notebook. It finally hit me. I've become too lazy to update. BUT I WILL NOT YIELD!! *battlecry*
I've started making plans about the invitation for my sister's debut. I think I have an idea now, but it's still a long way. I have to know the dimensions and stuff. Also the tarpaulin design hasn't been dealt with yet. It'll be an occupied week for me designing things. They expect me to finish everything before Sunday. I just hope that my June plans will materialize as well.
It wasn't a good Monday for me. What made my day complete is that she told me that she missed me. There's no need to elaborate. Labels: 365-project

Hallelujah, Jesus is Alive! This is actually one of my favourite Praise songs. I could say that the service felt really great today. Really great. But I don't know why I can't shake the thought that one of my sisters in the Lord had to pray for a long long time in preparation for us, the music ministry. She prayed for a lot of things, I noticed. Anyway, I really think that we should get our own building as soon as possible. Today's service was truly memorable. I noticed that my Pastor was jumping during the Praise and Worship, and my trainee finally played his turn during the Worship, or the slow songs.
When the service was over, my cousin called me around 1pm. I told him that we were still at church but we were on our way home. He was inviting us to go to their house because they had prepared some food. Today's his son's dedication. Even though they're oceans apart, of course he'd prepare a celebration. We went to their house afterwards.
We also started planning for our summer roadtrip. There was a change of plans and we've decided to go west instead. There's no concrete date yet, and no budget set yet. *laughs* But whatever.
I got too drowsy when I got home. I took a nap and woke up at 7pm. My older brother and my sister-in-law came over for dinner. Tomorrow's back to reality.

I tossed and tumbled during the night on my bed. Again. I woke up at 4am, and I couldn't go on sleeping again. I felt really uneasy for some reason. Perhaps it's because I should be living into a long weekend, but I have work this Saturday. I'm the only one who's going to work.
I snoozed part of 7am. It was on and off. But around 8am, I was pondering if I should just call in sick. I felt like crap around 9:30am. And I felt worse when I had to get up, because it's official, huh? I'm going to work. I still didn't want to get up. I was restless. I didn't get up at 10am yet. My body felt so heavy. I prayed.
At work, I shake my head when they said that there's a potential early wrap-up. Yeah right. What did I tell you? 1pm, and they said nope. I don't really care. I'm in the office already. Despite accepting that I'm going home after 6pm, and that I'm fasting, I just wanted to go home to be honest. I left the office at 5:30pm.
We had visitors when I got home. They were from the church. I think they were discussing about yesterday's service. I wasn't there, so I'm not really sure what happened. Finally, I felt relieved and I just wanted to relax. Labels: 365-project

Woke up at 12:30am this Black Friday. Remember that I had a headache yesterday? Well, all I did was a power nap and then that's it. I woke up and I wouldn't go back to sleep again. I didn't do anything important because I know that there's a service today. So I didn't get up. All of which is a mistake on my part. It's probably, because I'm recovering from my cold. I don't know why my sleep came knocking on the door at 9am. 11am, my mom tried to wake me up, but I was so out of it, that I remember saying fractured words and a sentence that doesn't make sense. I was half-asleep. It was very clear that I was knocked out. No one tried to wake me up. They came home around 5pm. I woke up during that time. I felt like I just ruined my Friday. Great. Tomorrow's Saturday. I haven't even done anything fun. Labels: 365-project

I woke up at 1:30pm and remembered the haircut appointment my cousin and I have today. I texted him yesterday that we'd go there at 2:30pm. I was still groggy, but I got up at 2pm instead. Then off I hurried to make ready. I showered, but I didn't eat anything. He sent a text asking if I was ready around 2:35pm. I replied with the three letters. When we got to the salon / barber, there was no one there. Fortune is with us. We finshed at 3:45pm. I initially had planned that we'll eat at the buffet again. My cousin said that his older brother, my older cousin, was inviting everyone because my godson is 6 months.
My tita B called and she was asking where we were. She needed a ride to my older cousin's. So we drove there first to pick her up. But then she said that my other tita, auntie J, also needed a ride, because my uncle E was scheduled for an overtime. I guess he wants to make more money to make up for tomorrow, Black Friday. Anyway, we got there around 4pm and we picked up my tita B. Then we dropped her off at my older cousin's apartment. And off we went to pick up tita J, because we can only fit four people in the car; my other cousin is tagging along. We had to stop over for gas first. After just a $20 worth of gas, we noticed that the gas gauge looked like it didn't move. Well in theory it did go up a notch, but how much gas can you buy with $20 nowadays?
When we got to my older cousin M's apartment, there was food. Finally. There wasn't much people. It's just us. My tita M asked where my cousin K was. I told her that he wasn't with us, but I said that I could call him. So I called him over the cellphone. He said that he can't make it with us, because he had no ride. Looking fresh with our haircut, I said that we'll just pick him up.
On our way, my dad called. 4:30pm, he was asking where I was. I told him that we already had our haircut and I'm going to cousin M's apartment, because it's my godson's 6th month. When he hung up the cellphone, I called cousin K and he showed up after a few minutes.
We returned the pad and ate. My tito E later showed up. My tita R and tito P also showed up at 5pm. Around 6pm, my dad showed up along with ate C. Cousin K and I talked about lootcrate. Tita J also told me some insights on how to surprise someone. There was a lot of things that I've learned. These were things on what to utilize. We got home around 9:35pm. I had a headache and it stopped me from doing other things. I just slept instead. Thursday was a pretty full day. Half-full at least. Labels: 365-project

I just got hooked again on Starcraft 2, Skyrim and Civilization 5. I took turns playing each early in the morning. I guess I didn't want to go to sleep yet and let Wednesday start. It turned out that way and I slept at 7am. I woke up at 1:30pm and had been trying to snooze until 3pm to get to work. Exam season is here again and so I'll try to do what I can in the office. Ah, it's always a pleasant experience reading notes while working in the office. When I left the house, I was wondering why it's chilly this 0 degree celsius weather.
Work was fine today. Nothing too hard. It's actually one of the better Wednesdays. My past Wednesday shifts have all been terribly busy. And they also brought in new faces, new co-workers. Interesting. It makes sense because the turnover rate where I work is pretty high. After work, I texted my cousin that the haircut session is a go tomorrow. I pushed it back to tomorrow since I was under the weather last week. Simple Wednesday. I expect that after Thursday, all the examining folks are finished and we hang out again. Labels: 365-project

It's Tuesday. Work in the afternoon. Busy for the first 3 hours. Things got lighter afterwards. It got pleasant during the last two hours. I left the office just past 10pm. I'm surprised that they didn't update my schedule after missing my Saturday. I kept quiet. I don't know what it means.
At home, to unwind, I talked to her about random things. You know who I'm referring to. Anyway, I asked her if she was busy. She said that today was her last day before the long weekend. It was already Wednesday where. The topic, again, just random things. Anyway, I'm just happy that we share a secret now. Real happy *smiles*. Labels: 365-project

It's a Monday day off so I didn't want to get up yet even though the cellphone said it's already 11pm. I snoozed further, but I didn't see that I'd be sleeping through the afternoon until 4pm. Today's my mom and dad's 30th anniversary. Both of them have work today. But an evening dinner treat wouldn't also work, because mom gets off at 11pm. When dad came home, I just told him that we could order out instead. So we did.
Tonight's the first of the first tetrad, the blood moon. As for myself, I've already seen the moon with a red color. I saw it one time when driving and the moon was just a bit above the horizon. It was red. But it turned golden yellow again when it was high up on the sky. So it had to do with its position on the horizon and the color spectrum.
I've also been able to find options on that tarpaulin thing for my sister's debut. Thanks to my love's help.
Come at night, to adjust my mindset for work, I just played Civilization V, Starcraft 2, and Skyrim. Again. Well, I've been trying to catch my friends in Battlenet, but they're still busy with exams. So I chose to level up instead. Labels: 365-project

Sunday morning. I didn't go to church today. Sad face. The cold woke me up very early at 7am and I was out of it. My body felt really cold and weak. I went upstairs to get something to eat since it was useless lying on my bed. When I had my breakfast I stayed up for a bit. I took my cold medicine with the drowsy formula. Then I tried to go back to sleep around 11am. I woke up at 4pm with my throat annoyed by mucus. My cousin asked if I was available today, but I told them otherwise. It was a quiet Sunday. We had fried noodles before the day ended. I just found out that it's my mom and dad's anniversary tomorrow! Labels: 365-project

The happiness continued. I called in sick today due to my cold. I really wanted to go to work today, because working Friday evening and then Saturday morning is hard for me. But I can't help it. My body wasn't really in the condition to go to work. And I haven't been able to sleep at all. I needed a cold medicine that would also help me become drowsy. My dad saw my note that I had left early morning, and he also bought a hearty 'Pampanga' breakfast. It was a good Saturday morning; I just chilled and let my body rest today. I didn't care about work. Health is wealth indeed.
After having my breakfast and my cold medicine, I felt so full that I couldn't just lie down to sleep right away. I may have eaten too much. I remembered that there's a meeting at home tonight about for my little sister's debut. Oh man, it's going to be one of those nights when everyone sleeps past 1am. Well, my sister's debut is a big deal. Its scale is like planning for her wedding. After watching the TV and let the food digest for a while, I lied down on my bed. I was able to sleep.
I woke up at 6pm. My brother is here. He woke me up asking if I had a torrent client in my desktop. I told him yes. But since he can't find it, I mean since he's not familiar with my Windows 8 setup, I got up and showed it to him.
There was a meeting for my sister's debut tonight. It was a lengthy conversation, but I think the planning stage is finally over. We're onto the execution stage. Her birthday is on October. I have two responsibilities to fulfill by the end of April. And just when we were about to wrap up around 10pm, Pacquiao's match against Bradley, the rematch, have started. All of us stayed put at home while planning my sister's debut. But we weren't left out of the loop. My dad was following the match through the tweet updates. The first four rounds were pretty even and you can tell that my dad's really nervous. Especially when they tweeted that Pacquiao was hurt by Bradley in round 4. As for me, I wasn't really paying attention. I was still nursing myself feeling like I'm coming down with a cold.
When I went upstairs to check again. It was already the 11th round. And I asked him if Pacquiao was losing. My dad said that Bradley started running just to finish the match. He wanted to survive the match? I wondered. I guess Pacquiao still has the stamina even though a lot of analysts say he has lost the eye of the tiger.
Long story short. My dad's super happy today. He's happy, because I made someone very happy, we were finally settled on the debut plans and Pacquiao won to reclaim his belt. Labels: 365-project

She loved it! They loved it! Happy days! I was restless during the evening waiting for my ate's reply. Friday morning, there were a lot of adjustments, but I wanted to push it through today because it's Holy Week next week. Giving her my present would be out of place. The truth is, I was supposed to give her the present last week. But my money wasn't transferred right away. Anyway, I was so happy when I felt her happiness radiate through my computer screen.
The point of my present is to share my happiness with the rest of her family. So far, from what she had said, it worked perfectly. She said that she was also surprised and that she was embarrassed because she wasn't able to entertain my ate after the delivery of my presents. When my contacts had told me that she was on her way to work after they've delivered the present, I told my special girl that she shouldn't worry about it. I mean, she was on her way to work. She added that she'll just make it up the next time. Is that a hint? Anyway, I'm just very happy today. *Cough* Even though I think I'm coming down with a cold. Labels: 365-project

I made it to my 100th entry! Let's just keep it going!
Okay, so Thursday. It's coming along together fine. But I just found out that they don't sell fruits basket at this time. So there were some changes. What they told me is that they sell fruits basket in December. Figures as it's the Filipino tradition to buy round fruits when the New Year approaches.
My body gave out today. I started coughing and there's a mucus buildup in my throat. It's pretty typical as I recall coming down with a cold during the start of spring last year. When my dad woke me up to help him fix the gate, I barely could answer him and get up. That's when it hit me that I may be coming down with the cold. But it's not that I have caught the cold fully. I've had much rest today and made some changes to the plans with my cousin. I really can't afford to be sick at this time, so I chose not to go outside. It was also very hard to catch a nap or go to sleep.
I did a little bit of level design today. I also had mussels for lunch. I'm a sea food guy. When I see food, I eat. Labels: 365-project

I almost lost my cool in the office. Sigh. Today was just tough. What's happened to my Wednesdays? Why do they always turn out to be tough? Add to that, my supervisor friend is gone. I felt so relieved when I left the office. I got home and I just wanted to relax.
I'll just leave a riddle tonight. Does she know about my plan? Labels: 365-project

Today's the last day of my supervisor friend at work. I regard him as one of the supervisors that I like. He's just easy and laid back like me. And when I left work tonight, I felt a bit sad inside. They're going to start a family restaurant. I just told him that we'd see each other in the future. Sigh, tomorrow would be another adjustment for me. A lot of people I know already left the firm, but I need to stay for the year because I'm saving. I'm not leaving yet. But the option is there.
I'm planning to apply for more grants this summer. I have to inquire what's easier. Well, a student loan is much easier, but a grant is a lot preferable. I now know the cost of my plane ticket to going home. I shake my head, because it's expensive. If I don't pick up more shifts, it means two months of work for a plane ticket. But I think it'll serve as a great motivation for me to pick up more shifts after all. It's ironic, because the office is missing two friendly faces since two of my close supervisors left.
My favourite girl and I chat around 11pm. I grabbed the laptop on my side, while playing Skyrim on my 3-mon desktop. Just before saying goodbye, since I needed to go to sleep, I found myself speechless and my character just idling for a while due to a message she had dropped. No no, it's nothing negative at all. It's just weird. I'll just say this: 'Does she know?' I have a plan up my sleeve this April. I didn't know what to say next, so I just told her yes. And now, she expecting them. I hope she would still be pleasantly surprised, because it's a whole different thing if she surprised or not. Well, we'll see. Labels: 365-project

Woke up early today, because I just decided to sleep early last night. We're finally feeling the spring. It rained yesterday afternoon. Even though it wasn't a beautiful day outside, it was all gray, I'm just glad that the temperature is above freezing. Work is picking up again. It's giving me options. Tomorrow is going to be the last day of my supervisor friend. I'm going to miss him. One of my close supervisors already left. Now I ask where I stand and what I'm going to do.
Me and my cousin started building the app page on Facebook for our games. He's registered a domain. I told him that I have a layout in mind, but I need to build it. One of my layouts for the June project has been completed. I haven't worked on my RPG today, but I need to now. It's a lot of work. I have to level design, write the story, create the characters, name the characters, setup the battle mode system, and come up with interesting enemies -- plus I need to make the game interesting itself. I think I have the last part covered. I have a handful of core aspects that it needs to have and I'm confident it'll make it interesting. I'm not revealing anything yet. Labels: 365-project

Sunday felt alive during Praise and Worship. Truly. The Pastor's message today made sense about how we, as Christians, should learn to cherish the value of sacrifice. I understood it thoroughly. That's why sometimes I just tear up all of a sudden when I look back. Sacrifice and blessings go hand in hand. I've made my share of sacrifices in life, cried tears of joy from them, yes, and I'm content with the blessings I have. Indeed, that there are people who don't have the means to make sacrifices. I should be honored that I could make sacrifices, that I have the means to do so.
There was a meeting after the service. It was about the acquisition of our church building, and our service bus. We expect to move into the new building next month. But it may be sooner as the congregation agreed that they're willing to set it up as soon as possible. Our Pastor also mentioned about buying a new drumset, because we need to replace the current one. One of the toms, can't be secured properly anymore with a broken screw. Anyway, we need another drumset so it would make it easier to train another drummer. That way, they could just follow my lead.
We went home afterwards; I thought that I wanted to sleep. It was really a quiet Sunday afternoon at home. I took a needed nap. When I woke up, I wanted to unwind with a videogame session. We didn't go anywhere with the cousins this Sunday. I think everyone is still full from yesterday. Labels: 365-project

I woke up again from the screaming kid in the living room. I could barely go back to sleep and it's just 7am. I don't need to get up until 10am. I struggled going back to sleep, so when it was 10am, my eyes were bloodshot. Sigh. My Saturdays.
When I got to work, it was really quiet in the office. I started work with the more difficult project. Whatever. I wasn't bored, because I was more concerned that I was passing out of my desk. I'm back to fasting every Saturday, so no caffeine or calorie for me in the morning. Anyway, I didn't pass out and I told myself to just endure the first 4 hours. By 3pm, we were told that there was a potential chance of us going home earlier. But I was skeptical. I mean, we were busy and I doubt they could afford to let us leave before 6pm. So 4pm, I took my break. Then I went back to do just a bit of work. I came back to my break at 4:45pm. And pretty much work was straightforward from then on. I left the office 6pm.
I stepped inside the house and set my bag on one corner. I opened the computer and learned that we're going to my uncle's house for his birthday. It's a full day. Fasting is done, so I grabbed a quick bite first. Mom and dad left to go to church for a moment. It appears that there's also a birthday celebration in church -- someone's 18th birthday, a debut at that. My auntie called our house and she was asking where we were. I told them that I was just by myself. I felt embarrassed if I didn't go. I mean, I was tired too. So I called my cousin to ride along with them. Just before 8pm, he pulled up in front of the house.
There was a lot of guests in their house. It didn't matter. The food was great. I've certainly had my fill. And then I met with my cousins talking about our summer plans this year. Three of us are interested for a long drive to Toronto. I don't know how official our plan is, because I'm the only one who will be funding the trip. Yes, moi. And it'll take 24 hours to get there by car. So we'll need to plan our stop-overs properly. That means we need money for gas, lodging, food and others.
I came back at home around 10pm. Then I brought up my Facebook to chat with her, my one and only girl. It's one of our more longer chats. We brainstormed different destinations for my vacay time next year. Then I just had to spill something weird about me, it's something on the eerie side. It's why I often mention about spiritual battles. But I could say that I had a good time from such a simple chat. Which makes me think. Oh God, how much more happiness can I have when I go home and spend my time with her in person? Is it fair to feel such happiness? Labels: 365-project

I'm just glad that she liked the video. That's what's important. At first I thought she might have been grossed out, because the music video was sudden. I've known girls in the past that didn't want those kinds of 'presents.' I thought I was too aggressive. But I was just insecure. Too insecure perhaps. Anyway, like I said, I'm just glad that she likes the video.
It's Friday and it was time for me to just take it easy. Played Skyrim and it's payday. Although, I stopped myself from spending anything today. The truth is, I'm going to hold out until June. I'm saving for different things and I can get by. Labels: 365-project

I didn't go to sleep yet, because I had to draw her portrait for the last part. I kept making adjustments on the drawing and I couldn't finish immediately. But I did it eventually. When I finished, I went to sleep. It's time. I woke up this morning to complete the video. I just had to finish the last bit of time left. It's time to publish the video online. I've finished my simple music video for her and posted it on my Facebook. She was still asleep when I posted it, and I just hope that it would surprise her and make her happy. After posting the video, I went on with my business for Thursday. Labels: 365-project

I slept around 5am after working on my personal project. It's almost finished. I just need to rack my brain a little more. It's ironic to feel that the last bit is the most difficult. Or perhaps, I just ran out of steam last night and thought that way.
I woke up from the screaming kid in the living room. Sigh. No matter, I slept at least 7 hours today. When I left for work at 4:13pm, I thought that today's a beautiful day. It's bright outside and it's not too cold either. I didn't feel restricted... well except that I have to work today. Honestly, it felt like it would be a shame to go to work. My cousin also missed call me on my cellphone. I think we had the same thoughts about today. But whatever. I was already walking beside the office building. Before going to sleep, I was doing calculations in my head how I need to pick up more shifts in the coming months. It sucks. I'll be short on my target savings. But I don't want to worry or think about it for now. I won't make money worrying about it. If I did, then I would have been the most problematic and worrywart person in the whole world. Back to work, today was a straightforward day in the office again. I liked it. I left the office past 10pm.
I'm looking forward to Thursday and Friday. I just had to try and finish my personal project today. Labels: 365-project

Before going to sleep, I sent a message to my beloved about how I often miss out on staying in touch with her. There's a 13 hour difference between us. I get up, she's already asleep. So I stay up late to talk to her. But it's been real busy last week, and I wasn't able to talk to her a lot since I've gone to sleep. I just wanted to say hi before I went to bed.
I didn't care about April Fool's, but my Facebook was fool err... full of April Fools jokes. Work was relatively lighter today. I meant relatively because they've launched 3 new projects and so they had to make some pretests and training. Since they're new projects, nobody knew what to expect from them, so work was not monotonous. These new projects are better. I left the office at 9:30pm. They're still rerouting the buses, so even that early, I almost missed my bus. Labels: 365-project
