21st of September

Soon enough, I'll be married to the love of my life, my first and my last. I just wanted to tell you how much I appreciate you in everything that you do. 

One thing I love about you is whenever you have a goal in your mind, you never stop. You never give up until you reach it and if that goal does not meet up your expectation. You move on to the next. Dattebayo, your ninja way. 😂😒

You know exactly what you're doing and you keep on trying new things. I honestly don't know how you manage all these things up, sometimes I feel like it's not possible in the first place.

The day that I fell in love with you, I know that I'm reaching for something nearly impossible.

 

When I started pursuing you, I know that it's unimaginable, I like you that much so I took the chance. I'm still not sure how you fell in love with me. I'm glad that I did what I have to do.

I knew that you will say yes the day that I proposed. I mean, we've been talking about our plans and goals. And even get mad at me for not taking action yet. 

Now that we're near to getting married, I'm reminded of how awesome you really are. I felt so small. You are THAT amazing. 

I know that I already told you this a million times but you are the picture of God's grace to me. You are someone that I don't deserve. It felt like there's nothing that I've done to deserve you but I'm really glad to accept you with everything that I have.

Who I am to reject this amazing gift anyway? 

Happy Birthday, Bebs. I'm really excited about the future with you. That's all for now, saving my vocabulary for our wedding day. 🤣😂😁

August slipped away

Yup. We're all here. Just like that.. As Taylor Swift said, "August slipped away into a moment in time". 

With the much stricter lockdown and a new variant. There's nothing much happened this month. Me and Jassie just work on the things that we can work on online or at home and delay the outside stuff. 

I started posting again on my Instagram account, but this time on reels. I've never been consistent and I only posted 2 for the whole month. How's that? 

I'm also struggling to go back to reading but I'm starting to get back on track as I slowly read few chapters. 

For my monthly routine. I watched a few series. 

iCarly season 1 was just wrapped up. 

My love for black clover is really peaking up. Things are getting really interesting. 

Of course, the on-going Boruto anime.

and My Hero Academia.

I've been reading manga, aside from the one who started my liking to reading mangas, Boruto. 

I also caught up on this really fun Romantic Comedy.

Of course the action-packed and really funny Demon Slayer. 

There's nothing much that I could share for this month. But it will be very busy for me and Jassiee in the next weeks as we prepare for our December wedding. omg. 

Also, my family has been vaccinated already. Mom and my 2 little brothers just got their first shot. But it's been quite challenging for them. Apparently, they got sick. My mom got a little weaker than usual and I know that it's not from the vaccine nor the virus. 

It's kinda odd seeing mom that way. I just feel pain looking at her. I check on her from time to time if she needs anything and I'm quietly praying for her complete healing. We're all hopeful that she can get through this all. She's my mom after all. 

I don't know but it's kinda weird that I started being appreciative of what she has done to our family. I often overlooked the things that she does. Now, we have to do things ourselves and take care of her. For how many days now, my dad and I have been taking care of the household since we're the ones who are not sick. 

As I'm writing this today, my mom is in the hospital to check things up. Hopefully that it's not that serious.

Cold Day in July

We're halfway to the end of the year, would you believe it?

I've slowed down in watching anime for this month. I took a break from my Instagram page. I also tried to go back on how things are going. I've been playing a lot of games, with my new ones.

My New Games:

One of the games that I really enjoyed. This is unlike the Naruto Ninja Storm series, this has level-ups and missions. 

If you want to chill and have fun. Don't play this game. Don't let the colors and those adorable characters fool you. This is one of the frustrating games I ever played. And yes, you will never stop playing this. And yes, I never won ever in this game.

As I've said, I only watched a handful of series. 2 animes, one of which is still ongoing. 

One of the cutest and chill anime. So wholesome and spice of life anime. This is a story of Tamako, a daughter of a mochi maker and her journey with the super friendly neighborhood/market.

Another series of adventure, magic and superpowers. A story of a boy with no magic and the guts in reaching his dream. I'm still a few episodes in the anime and it has been so good. It reminded me a lot of the Naruto series, you know the typical dream reacher protagonist.

Complicated timeline? Yes. Branch reality? You bet it. This is the amazing journey through time by none other than, the variant, Loki. This series officially launch the next phase and big villain of the MCU.

MCU is on the big screen once again after being delayed for few months. The action-packed movie of Black Widow. This is good. I love the fight scenes and the flow of the story. It's fun watching an MCU movie from time to time that has no supernatural powers. 

I've also completed the full dose of my vaccine. The only side effect that I received was the swollen upper arm and that's it. So far, I don't experience anything bad in my body. 

I've also watched and listen to several podcasts, I recently enjoyed listening to several stories featured in Toni talks, Wil Dasovich's superhuman podcast, MattRuns by Matteo Guidicelli. I get inspired and they gave me a different perspective on life. Above all of them, I'm pretty impressed by Toni Gonzaga's wisdom. I enjoy listening to her in how she conducts interviews and how she gives bits of her wisdom and she also amazingly quoted book wisdom.

Lastly, we went to my Ninang in Cavite, Jassie's Ninang and relatives in Novaliches, and talked to our Ninong and Ninang in Davao to complete our sponsor's list. We're getting there but it has been a very tiring and very exciting journey to our wedding.

In those heavy days in June

This month passes by just like that. But the main theme for this month is a slow fade. I'm quite burned out with my Instagram gaming and some other things. So, I took a break, taking things slowly but will surely be back soon. 

Kuroko's BasketBall

I managed to watch this 75 Episode Sports Theme Anime and this is super cool. I never thought that I'd like a sports-related anime. One of my favorites for sure.

Loki just started and it's really interesting. 

Of course, my favorite Nickelodeon series, iCarly came back and all those feels came rushing back as well. Too bad Sam is not on the show.

Keep Your Hands Off Eizouken! - I don't know if this is for everyone but this is a masterpiece for sure. This anime will be appreciated by filmmakers and artists of the same field. This anime showcases the process of building an anime. From the idea to processing, filming, design, sounds, and the overalls. It's amazing. 

Other stuff! 

I also got my first shot of Vaccine last June 19 and I'll be back on July 10. 

We went to Batangas over the weekend, June 27, and around Muntinlupa on June 28. We talked to our relatives and our principal sponsors. It was a tiring weekend but it's super fun. I love seeing the people's reactions and how they appreciated our offer. We were amazed by their fortune and meekness. Their acceptance and excitement.

All I can say is that we are blessed. I know not everyone is privileged to have a wedding but we're more than blessed to know that there are people around us that love and thinking about us.

We did not expect the reactions and feedback. It's touching.

Slack

I don't know what it is but I'm here again. Starting over. Getting tired of something I do not know, slacking off.

It was just 2 months ago, I've been running, doing all this stuff, rushing in. Reading all the books I could find, watching all the good anime and movies I bump into, and create every artwork I can get inspiration to. 

Now, it's June 3rd. I've done nearly nothing. I'm not sneaking into anything at work and been doing just.. work.

Watching animes really slow and not doing any artwork. I'm getting lazy posting and grinding on Instagram. I'm not sure if I should say this but I think I needed a break. Lol

Hopefully, things will change next week.

May the Fourth be with you

Probably, the highlight of this month is my leaves. (Aside from an overnight with Jassiee here in our home). Almost the full month, I only work for 3 days per week. Which is very nice and it has this huge warning that I might get used to it. 

I also set up my workstation outside my bed for a lil different experience, while It's pretty hot out here, I really enjoy the vibes at some time. 

Good Reads

I've been reading this for quite a while and it has those interesting takes on Christianity. I really like the author's explanation but sometimes it's too deep for me. 

Watch Tayo

Series

Classroom of the Elite

My Hero Academia

Inuyasha

Death Note

Rent-a-Girlfriend

Rascal Does Not Dream of Bunny Girl Senpai

Other stuff

My boy Jaylen Brown had surgery, Celtics won the play-in tournament and currently at 0-2 in a best of 7 series against the Brooklyn Nets. 

That's all for now. Ciao.

Hey there, Roach

I'm being reminded from time to time about this experience I had in my elementary days. I'm not sure if I shared it already but, I'll share it again.

In the days of innocence and cartoon characters, there was I, imagining myself watching my favorite Cartoon Network shows. Studying really bored me to death. I only really listen to teachers that I liked. 

To be honest, there were only a handful of teachers that I liked back then. Some of them are not really good either. But above the lessons that they taught us, I remembered some of them because of either their trivia and some negative stuff. 

We had this computer subject back then and my teacher told us something about computers. You know, the basics: software, hardware, and peopleware. But above all of that, I learned about the hardware. He told us that computer components will only fit the specific slot. It reminded me of the kids' toy: Sorting cube. 

I broke so many computers and learned more along the way and what he told us remained true. A really nice lesson that guided me so many times.

But the point of making this blog is to tell a little story about how my classmate teased me back then. Before I tell you this, here are some things that I'd like you to know about me:

- I'm a shy type.

- I'm definitely an introvert.

During that time, I didn't know the concept of introverts and extroverts. I only know one thing: There's something wrong with me. 

Whenever my teacher commanded us to read or when I'm called to recite. My voice shakes and it's in low volume. Some of them, especially my adviser and my math teachers will shout at me and calling me names: Cockroach. 

Why? Cause with the volume of my voice, only cockroaches can hear me. It was the birth of this name I was called back then. 

Is there something wrong with me? I carried that thought as grow up until I learned about introverts. I was so happy thinking that, yeah, I'm normal somehow. I guess?

It was just sad that it was my teachers who brought that name that caused my classmate to tease me endlessly. Because of this, I only hang out with my outcast classmates, maybe because we relate to each other somehow.
