What’s the smartest thing you did today?

Hmm… To get up and get on with my day despite the bodily pains. (You have no idea how low my pain tolerance is. LOL)

*****
A combination of having the day as that first day of the time of the month, then an aftermath of surfing and yoga from the previous day and maybe falling asleep in birthday suit--- a not-so wise decision—I woke up with so much pain all over.

Ibuprofen to the rescue of course!

Work day had been productive at the first part, being able to finish the manual for the upcoming big event in July.

I had parents sit in my classes again today. The higher level class of 2 kids seem to be going pretty well on the first part until my boy student suddenly lost his confidence in speaking and things were still manageable until the end, but as a teacher, I felt his dissatisfaction about his own performance while his mom was there. The mom of the girl is just really relaxed.

My last class had been more interesting. It is a one-on-one class with a typical Japanese learner who started learning another language at the age of 13. Though he struggles, I can tell that he is determined. I, myself, was afraid to look at the dad coz that might affect my own performance as a teacher. But on the side, I can feel the dad cheering for his son whenever he is struggling with the sentence pattern or the answers for the questions I throw at him.

As a daddy’s girl myself, I certainly happy for this kiddo for having such a cool dad.

I still have pending tasks to keep me busy tomorrow which is nice.

Just so glad that I took time to cook last Wednesday night as it saved me time and energy for the coming days of the Time of the Month (TOTM) Copyright goes one of the closest friend I have so far in my life. LOL.

Hmm.. Movie and book nights ahead after Sunday! Oopps.. My Python lesson awaits as well. I almost forgot.

It's her time to go.

It's her time to go. I keep telling myself. Today, my former co-worker, E had already left for Hiroshima. She quit the company we used to both work for and had decided to find another job in another place for several reasons. I was hoping to see her before she leaves just so I can also thank her personally and wish her well on her way. I know it would have been emotional and wacky at the same time. She told me that she had intended not to see me because she is avoiding the emotional breakdown that may arise as she leaves the city. She has been crying all week-long, she said. I sent her a message telling her that another co-worker is set to resign and that I had decided to take a holiday flight back home at the end of December and be back on New Year's Eve in Miyazaki. I will be spending the last day of 2018 enroute back to Japan and welcoming 2019, either in a bus enroute to Miyazaki or in a capsule hotel in Fukuoka. Just because with the sudden changes, I may have di

​I weighed in and I’m at 55kgs today. I need to lose 7kgs to get down to my ideal weight.  I am filled with so much frustration right now about myself. I was able to reach it for 2 years and here I am falling out from it.  I am not sure which one I got so much high from, was the journey of being fit or being fit in itself. I remember telling myself that exercising and working out and seeing results of weight loss can bring a different kind of high, it’s addicting like everything else coz once you have somewhat reached a peak level of fitness in comparison to the previous self, it brings so much joy and confidence like never before. And I even told myself before, “If being fit is a form of addiction, this is the kind of addiction I would like to get stuck with for life.” I used to be the only one posting and sharing my fitness journey, now almost everyone who just used to message me about working out and weight loss, they are on the peak of achievement of their body goals.  It is so fru

 Second to the last day of the 9th month of the year. then, 3 more months to call it a wrap for this month.  If my life will be a content that I will curate a story from, I wonder how it will all turn out? Will it be a story people will be willing to pay for? Will it be a story I am willing to share to the world?  Am I willing to share my flaws? My bads?  Of course I am excited to tell the world my triumphs, my inspirations, my dreams, ..... my journey.  But it isn't easy. Even here, sometimes, writing can be very painful. Most of the time, I am just lazy to move and write.
