A different place

Image
Arrived in Oita for my first long drive! I am grateful to the Lord for keeping me and my friends safe allthroughout the journey. 

A decade from today.

Today's Day 1 workshop on innovative educational program planning took a lot of my energy but it filled my heart with a lot of excitement and big goals to keep me drinking coffee.  Two steps back, one step forward. It will take awhile and tons of coffee to see results, probably, a decade from now. But this is one thing that I am forever grateful for and will always have energy to do. 

What is the next major purchase you need to make?

 365 QOTD  What is the next major purchase you need to make? A house and lot for my parents.  ************** I was really excited to go for paragliding today, but due to the strong winds, it didn't happen. I wanna cry but I know it's a petty thing and glad that I was able to hold off the tears and busied myself with something else. He promised that he will take me paragliding when the chance comes up and I trust him. I believe him.  The  day went well being able to connect to new people and have interesting and funny conversations. Capping the evening with a conversation with the family and telling them about my new hobby of archery and my papa joking about I should have just told him that I needed bamboo and he would have just supplied it to me himself.  Grateful for new friends and the laughter that they bring.  Thankful for an ever-loving family I have back home.  Blessed to have them praying for me all the time. I wouldn't be here, intact and safe and fighting if not fo

Summery in Spring

I don't know but I really love wearing long, flowy and airy dresses.  After a 2-hour long drive this morning from work, I met with my friend for lunch and walked in the park.  She is moving to live alone in another prefecture for work. Exciting times ahead of her. She will be fine.  As for me, I will be fine as well. Always am.   

A Manifest- Draft version

 They said that for your desires to come true, you manifest it to the universe and it shall be given.  This is a rush manifestation as I am so sleepy right now and need to take that afternoon nap after a 2-hour drive from Miyazaki to Kagoshima. ******************* My wish is simple: For that romantic love to find me.  We probably are friends or maybe friends that had fallen apart for awhile and then reconnected.  He must be taller than me, with a face that is pleasing to look at, cute smile, hugs warmly, broad chest for comfort.  He is someone who dearly loves his mother or any women in his family. Respects his father and the old men. Playful with the youth and brave like an innocent child.  I may have come across you already, or maybe not yet, my only prayer is that you show yourself..... be that brave soul to let me know that there is such thing as love that had grown over friendship,  and trust that blooms over a space and time woven in friendship.  Kisses and hugs and intimacy foun

In Between

Looks like I am standing in between two phallic structures.  Glad that I dropped my to do list today for something spontaneous today.  I had always wanted to go to this place and my co-worker drove us to Sun Messe today! 

I have faith that ________________________

 365 QOTD  I have faith that........  ... that I can achieve my goals if I work on them,           I can attract that one high quality partner as I accept to myself that I am enough.            I am where I am supposed to be at the moment and that I will flow to the direction with grace and gratitude.  ******************* I haven't touched on my paper yet today but I was able to make pancakes as I have planned them on my bedtime last night. Will be touching on my Anchor podcast with a series of changes just to encourage myself to keep on reflecting and having 3-10 minutes moment to myself to think out loud.  365 QOTD will be adding another derivate style with my audio voice as its main source and my life as its main content.  Today, I thought of going to the beach for a good run, but I am not sure if I want to because I am having headaches. It was actually quite frequent recently, not necessarily intense but still something that can make me a bit uncomfy.  Will have 2 classes today

What is your favorite TV show?

 365 QOTD  What your favorite TV show?  I don't think I have a "favorite" but if I have to choose, it will most likely be Game of Thrones. Despite its veering much away from the books, I find every line and persona in the story strong and relevant in different ways. And they are coming up with an anniversary episode on HBO! I am excited!!!! <3  *********************** Midweek Hump  It's 9:58 in the morning and I was able to write 2 paragraphs for my thesis proposal!  I am waiting for a delivery but apparently I missed specifying what time they should come, so I probably have to just go and buy my groceries now instead of waiting for no one to come. Coz I thought of doing that after receiving the delivery. Today, I thought I wont bring my car, but I probably have to because I need to do stuff before going to work.  Of course, I can't wait for payday! HAHAHA. 

Solo at the gym

I will miss going to the gym but I am also excited as to how yoga will make my life and my being a bit better. So, you see, there are still a lot of unwanted fats all over my body, my arms are still big and fluffy, but it had been a great journey to keep my body moving and sweating and "healthy" at these trying times. Every now and then, it is still hard to push myself to get moving and going, but that decision in 2019 to join the gym was such a great investment I had put on myself and will keep on investing on my health and being as much as I can, as long as I can.   

What did you forget?

 365 QOTD  What did you forget? Hmm... I have been forgetting that I have to check on my finances. Either I am really "forgetting" or I am intentionally putting it on the side as I entertain counter productive activities and thoughts. But after this, I am opening up my planner, the tabs needed and my expense list. I had been splurging. A lot of splurging. So much that I need to slow down and take a step back to make sure that I have enough money saved up for future expenses such as the city tax and vehicle tax that is coming up soon. 

I made it!

So lazy on a Monday and PMS-ing also and you have no idea how much of a struggle that is if you do not have a vagina...  Grateful for finding a friend in V whose words are just always full of positivity and push to do what needs to be done. Eventhough we both know that we may not really be applying the same words to ourselves most of the time. Hahaha.  Monday, you have been crazy.. from waking up, to the lunch decisions to be made, the clinic check up and prescription, the work is pretty chill at 2 hours, then that big push to do a 27-minute workout that made me sweat and just makes me wish I brought stuff for shower.  But I am going home and excited to get cleaned up and be in bed. Tomorrow is another day to make up for the lost tasks for Tuesday.  Monday, you had already been a stretch. Know that it is red alert week, so please tell the rest of the week to be kind to me. 

Friday Stretch

Image
I haven't had good workout days in March for reasons I don't know. This will be my last month with the gym probably until Autumn. Don't know yet. But I am making the best out of all the time I got. I am excited to grow tan and dark and slimmer coz I will be doing more guided yoga practice and surfing lessons. Yes oh yes! Archery kits on the way, one for practice, one for long term use. The farm will have a good use of it when I take back to PH with me if I don't sell it here.  So, here is Friday going so far. After this, the phone will be buried down into the bag, the work notes will be pulled up and I am gonna do work. 

_____________ make me happy.

 365 QOTD  ___________ makes me happy.  Easy! LOVE makes me happy.  The love for life, for people, for dreams and just for everything this life has to offer-- the pain, the learnings and the warm embrace.  I have been thinking about the word MANIFEST. I think I should write about my love and my manifestations for a partner. I cannot deny the power of writing in manifesting. For every dream and goal and where I am at right now, I have written about it. I have manifested it in words and eventually, they came true.  There is power in praying, writing and reflecting.  *********** Let's see how's Friday going.  I woke up before the alarm but bad habit of scrolling on the phone while in bed occurred and I almost had gone to another sleep cycle if I only had not gotten up as soon as the alarm rang! A bit of scrolling and I was able to let go of my phone and then made a pot of coffee and quick breakfast. Played the piano for a bit, I am amazed how I am slowly getting the hang of it. I

Run and Swim. Repeat

Image
It is a Thursday and the gym is closed so I decided to go for a morning run and swim at the nearby clubhouse. I thought of reading a book by the park thereafter but I forgot my body essentials so I decided to just go home instead and take a nap before I drove to work. I havent touched my academic paper in any way at all today. But maybe I   will browse on it before I go to bed.  Next time, I intend to do yoga by the pond. I think that would be nice. 

Live in the now.

Do you have any regrets today?

 365 QOTD  Do you have any regrets today? Hmm.. Good question as always. It is 9:26 AM as of this writing and the only regret I have is that the moment my phone alarmed, I grabbed it and went back to bed to check it until past 8AM. I did that so I can search for a photo to post for my sister's birthday today. I know I can just greet her, but I know that she is worth the world's shout-out to be one of the most amazing person in the world out there. At least for my own little world. She is so amazing! I can go on for a list, and yet, she will always be more than the words I can think of.  ********** As soon as I got up from bed, I load up my laundry, made coffee, warmed up food and grabbed my laptop to resume editing some documents for our island school. Jhe always just blows my mind how she pulls off everything good and surpass every thing bad that happens in that school. For me, I seem to enjoy being on the background. But every now and then, it feels great to be in the spotlig

When is your next major deadline?

365 QOTD  When is your next major deadline? What is it for?  April 30 for the second draft of the School Manual for our NGO school  May 31 for the research proposal paper.  **************** Monday actually started a bit calmer. With a private English class, then a trip to Darumizu Park with a co-worker. We tried to fly my drone but it had been so windy, it didnt get to go far and high.  A quick inventory trip to the secondhand shop for appliance and housewares as N is deciding to move to a cheaper apartment.  I shopped for a few intimates but failed to get what I really need to buy in the first place. Took a sit at a cafe for a bit and then went shopping for care package.  I had an incident at the parking lot again. I hit another post but it isnt as bad as the first one but of course, the scratches are very obvious. Well, pains of learning I suppose. It has to go here because I haven't told anybody about it. Not even the person who helped me out figure how to fix my lamp. Yeah, I t
