Mass Update

Tagaytay with Family Last Week

I know, this is a real late update, but you will understand why later. Just wanted to document here that after such a long time, my family went on a roadtrip to Tagaytay last Saturday, to celebrate my brother Butzy and my mom’s birthdays.

We spent the day there in a leisurely pace, woke up quite late too but reached the place just in time for lunch. I originally made reservations for Sonya’s Garden but when I told my family that we would be eating an all-organic meal, Dad opted go eat some place else because he said he wants to eat bulalo. So we ended up eating at Josephine’s, which worked to my advantage because meal was sumptuous, and a lot cheaper had we eaten at Sonya’s. After lunch we drove around some more, went to People’s Park in the Sky, bought halo-halo in a box in Good Shepherd’s convent among many other things (yes, it’s pretty much the same as the one in Bagiuo), then we bought plants coz I fell in love with these plants that have small blue flowers growing in clusters, which we later learned are called “milflores” or million flowers. After that, we checked out this coffee shop that I read about online, called the Bag of Beans. I noticed that in Tagaytay, they like converting gardens with greenhouses into restaurants or coffee shops, as this is the setting of the cafe. We originally went inside the shop where you can buy coffee and their other pastries, and found it insanely small that I couldn’t help but ask “is this it?”. Hehehe. Then they showed us the path that goes down to the garden and voila, there was the coffeeshop. I was uber perky after that merienda because of course, I drank their special blend brewed coffee, and I must say it helped drown the headache I was nursing even before lunch started. It was late in the afternoon by then so after buying flowers and fruits, we headed back home. About 30 minutes before reaching home, my little sister Bonzai got sick. She started throwing up and we all think it’s because of that drink she had, called the Frozen Hot Choco. Pangalan pa lang dubious na. Hehe. She got better the following day ‘though so all’s well that ends well. Im glad I got to spend that day with my family in that way, before I go back to the GY shift.

Back to Working Nights

So I was back to working nights last Sunday, October 2. My first night was quite a breeze, got to go home early even. But wow, come Monday night, we were just swamped! Such a bummer. Some of us in the team got promoted already, and two of them were supposed to be in our shift. So we already lack two, and we feel its such negative effect every night. We have one new person coming in though, but we still lack one more. In a way I am thankful that my rest days are weekdays, because it’s hella busy when its a normal day, or night in our case. Hay. I totally hate it.

So far, my sleep is ok, although I tend to wake up every couple of hours, but I still fall back to slumber more often that not so it’s ok. I’m still able to complete the 8 hrs of sleep I need to last the night but I kinda feel sick, and I would like to think it’s only because I’m still adjusting. Come my restdays last Tuesday and Wednesday, my mood has gone haywire, because my body clock was all messed up. Didn’t know when should I be sleeping and when I shouldn’t. Badtrip.

Moving Out Updates

Well I am still living at home, I still travel almost an hour to work and I’m still spending way too much on my cab fares. Hopefully though, we will move in this month, as long as things fall into their right places. Still keeping my fingers crossed.

I Miss my Crush

Haha! Wala lang, just wanted to add it here coz I haven’t seen him for the longest time. It’s so baffling that we work in the same building, and even work in some common hours and we don’t bump into each other at the least. Hay. Frustrating.

One More Frustration

I can’t seem to write. Something is wrong. On my idle moments I still have thoughts of what I should write about, thoughts that I wanna write about, but when I face the computer, I can’t write anything. Bakit kaya.
