 Look at that! Five days straight of journaling with not really much to put on it except the boring, daily stuff. But I am happy I get to write again. 

I woke way a bit late than usual today. But I managed to start a full body workout but didn't get to complete the last set of exercises coz my right wrist just got a bit more painful. Still, I did it! Stripped off my comfy pajamas and onto sports bra and tights and yoga mat.

I brewed coffee, checked on my stocks account for trading decisions and notices, checked on my university profile to see if I need to enrol for residence, but i dont think it is necessary, it seems. I just need to be able to pick up work on my thesis proposal as soon as possible. 

There was cleaning, luggage prep, a bit of piano practice and it seems that are are still so many things to throw away from my house. HAHAHA. 

I am enjoying this slow journey to minimalism. 

Work resumes today as well. Long drives and hotel stays are back! But not really sure if I am happy about it. LOL. 

I thought I still have time to go over my finances and savings and bank deposits, but I didnt get to do that. 

Not even paid the bills yet. Since I will be staying in the city for the entire month of January, it is looking promising that I can be able to sit down and re-think my spending habits and long term financial priorities. 

It is a slow and calm start of the year and I couldn't be more grateful for the quiet and peace before the storm. Until we get results from Kuya's PET scan mid January, I would like to hold off on my personal plans and dedicate a big chunk of my free time to whatever he needs. 

Also with our island school, a lot of things has to be done and I feel helpless that I am not really able to help out much. 

Long day tomorrow starts at 930AM. 

Good night for now.

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.
