The Sunday Currently Vol. I

Reading
Haven't been doing much reading lately, but in my free time (mostly when I'm doing my laundry) I'd read Dealing with Difficult Customers. It's practically a required reading for work, so of course it's even harder to enjoy, haha.
For recreational purposes though, I'm looking forward to reading Wild by Cheryl Strayed after hearing about it from Tim Ferriss' podcast. Basically, anything that has an element of escapism in it is automatically attractive to me. Ha!!

Writing
I'm working on a blog about my experience as a bedspacer since three apartments ago. I think it'd be fun looking back on the different personalities of my previous landladies and the pains of communal living, among others. (I once lived in what's practically an art gallery and the landlady was a bitch, lol.)

Listening
I've been into podcasts lately! I'm alternating between Wake Up with Jim & Saab and The Tim Ferriss Show. I realized though that listening to either in public makes me look like an idiot.
Because one moment I'm deciding between frozen longganisa or a pack of burger patties, and then suddenly I'm cracking up in the middle of the grocery aisle. Yeah, that happened.
Watching
I haven't stopped thinking about Newness (2017). I don't want to say anything more, just watch it. It's on Netflix. (Okay, I just learned it was directed and written by the same guys who did Like Crazy and now I get it.)
Also, I met up Adrian and Julia yesterday to supposedly watch ML, but the cinema was packed so we settled for Buy Bust instead. Two things:

- The plot was simple and thin, but the underlying message was definitely not.
- The prod work was insane!!!
Thinking
If my growing dependence on lists to incorporate some kind of structure into my life is healthy or is becoming borderline obsessive. I can't peacefully go about my day without a well-planned to-do list. Even on weekends! (Or especially on weekends.)
I asked one of my housemates about it and she said she's practically the same. Except that she notes it on her phone; I prefer to use my journal or planner. And I also came across this article that said planning the day is an anxiety reliever, and I couldn't agree more so I guess this is okay?

Wishing
That I can be more assertive. Like, in general. I'd like to think I'm not as timid as before (who cares if they didn't get my order right, right?) but I figured if I really want to pursue what I want to pursue then I have to toughen up and speak up... more. (Just thinking about that makes me anxious, haha. Why am I like this!!!)
Also wishing my parents would come back (they visited last week!) so I can eat real food again. I'm still thinking of that heavenly Mee Goreng from Banana Leaf, man.

Hoping
That I can finally get clarity (or at least accept things as they are), let go of my impractical and worldly desires, and purge my closet. I've only worked on the last one. Visit my shop! #pluggg
Also hoping I could get my house key and makeup bag back. My carelessness will be the death of me. (Had a close call last time, remember.)

Loving
Nicholas Hoult. I loved him when he was an oddly adorable undead in Warm Bodies, I love him even more as an enigmatic pharmacist with emotional baggage in Newness.

Feeling
Super comfortable here at Coffee Project (the one in Greenbelt)! I've been trying to find a decent workspace near my place, specifically a coffee shop with free (limited) wifi and charging, but not too expensive (cheap-ass hoe represent!). So Coffee Projects checks all that, plus they have long tables with foot rests!!!

- The Golden Thread app, a digital Tarot deck you can use for daily draws, reading decks, etc. (I use this with my physical deck for guided readings, hehe.)
- Labyrinthos, an online Tarot school for witches and wizards
- The Highly Productive Morning Routines Of 10 Truly Baller Women (Basically just get up before 7 and get shit done.)
- Type A(my): An Ode To ‘Brooklyn Nine-Nine’ For Celebrating Ambitious, Perfectionist Women (Jake and Amy's relationship set the bar too high and I might just grow old alone, but no probs.)
