You'll just realize you've been so inattentive when a raging rain was about to welcome you after work, but you forgot to get your umbrella with you.
In my mind, this famous meme audio clip was played over and over again, that I eventually felt annoyed instead of laughing with it. You know, that famous, "That's when he knew, he fxxked up." That famous line I always here whenever I watch crack videos on Youtube, yeah, that one.
It was so silly of me to feel impatient about this rainy week to finally end. Then I thought, rain's peak visiting months are really June to August in my country, LOL. How can I forget that one? Anyway, it ain't just rain. There are also strong winds accompanying it. And hassle travels. And wet clothes, laundry problems, roof leakages, floods, and other stuff that go with it. And I don't like it.
Whenever I get pissed off at nonstop rains, I just think it is nature's way of nourishing itself from the dry season. Probably, the farmers are happy now. And with these thoughts, my mood lights up. As I always have said, rainy days are good times to feel sentimental, don't ask me why, there's just some unexplainable connection between rain and unforgettable memories, you know it, too. Right? So, when I could not sleep and it is raining at the moment, I purposely listen to calm music and start reminiscing some old memories, or create sad stories that go well with the gloomy weather, or just write random prose with, guess what.. tragic atmosphere, too, of course.
So, my brain has the image of my blue umbrella hidden under my table at the office right now. I can't stop shaking my head with the thought of forgetting to get this thing, that's why I had to run for my life earlier, just to avoid getting wet further.
I should be thankful I was wearing my hoodie, and I have a workmate who can share me her umbrella. The only time I played hide and seek with the raindrops is when I walked—no, ran—some few feet home. I was not drenched, really, just a bit. Just a bit, and I was still.. somehow annoyed.
I texted my youmger bro ahead to fetch me outside with an extra umbrella because I forgot to bring mine. He did not respond. And until I was dropped off to the spot, he's nowhere near. I almost scolded him when I stepped home, but he reasoned out he was not able to read the message because he was cleaning the sink. Valid, yes, because I really saw him doing the thing when I entered home.
I mentioned before that online earning platforms in my phone consumes my free time these days. A new thing though, is that I am more active in noise.cash now. Yeah, finally. I decided to make this almost dead account of mine live again, and hopefully in the next few days, it will. I have the same usernme there, just in case you wanna be friends with me in noise. I am trying to become noisy again, afte months of inactivity. This is another opportunity to earn BCH, but by means of shorter (but still, original and sensible) posts.
I forgot being active in Lyka App these days. I am kinda mad because I fail to keep my streak of posting regularly everyday, because I was so busy! It sucks to know this, because I just missed some opportunity to earn some cents by simply posting photos. I will surely get back on track one of these days.
And here we go again with my burden. Back pains are here again. It's so burdensome! I badly need a massage! I should really get one when my schedule allows. I am getting affected by this back pains. Really, I have no words to say, just thinking of it stresses me out, so I will just leave it at that.
Wait, how's Whitey? Still the same.old, no pictures. Sometimes, he's in the overpass, sometimes, he's not. During the times I did not see him there, I wonder where he's at. Does he have owners? Does he go to other places? I wonder. Anyway, good thing everyone, I can see how he improved a bit. Yeah, just a little bit, but I noticed it, and that change, even just 1%, I am happy about it.
Whitey now walks more frequently, at least around the overpass area. The first time I saw him, he was just curled up in one corner, his two legs behind almost of no use because they grew weak or immobile. Now, I can see him standing, or walking from time to time, and I think, it is an improvement.
You know, I am not sure if what I'll say is right or wrong, but just earlier after work, I got a feeling that Whitey recognizes me already? Maybe I was just assuming or something, but as soon as I got to the platform, I see him somehow approaching me, and looking at me. Did he smell me already, that he sensed I was coming, or was it just pure coincidence? No way, I felt kinda happy, not gonna lie (haha!) Let me just confirm tomorrow morning, if I see him there.
I somehow felt the need to write this to give updates about myself, one, because I want to share it with you, and second, I'd like to look back on this blog after some time and see how I was in the past. Like some diary of some sort, you know.
Still experiencing a little bit of dizziness from time to time, my head ocassionally aches a bit, and the tired and sleepy feeling is stronger especially in the morning. I still feel that these stuffs are still the vaccine working some mild effects. Left arm where I got vaccinated, not anymore painful, unless I put pressure on it. Hopefully, all of these I mentioned will go away soon, so I could work more normally and more efficiently.
Last time, I said I was in the Top 95 tippers, and as far as I remember, I placed at 93. Every once im a while, I checked my progress into my personal goal of getting that diamond badge as soon as I can, so let me show you my progress that I was able to document.
Within a week, I was able to jump into Top 68, and I am now a few steps to being in the top 50. This is an achievement to me. Another goal that I recently started to work on. Thanks to Rusty's visits, and my fellow readers' support, I know I can make it soon. And I will do my best to maintain it. Who knows? I might get within the top 10 as well. My, what a big dream! Nevertheless, nothing is impossible. I know God will help me. Earning this badge will give a sense of comfort that I am able to give back what I got from this platform.
Other goals achieved? A hundred subs (Yay!) Newest sponsors, and of course, sponsees! Yes, so happy to finally achieve these all within July alone. Still planning to get my sponsees to fifteen or more, if Rusty would just come again (LOL).
Take some nice break and check out works of my amazing sponsors. Surprisingly enough, they are all talented writers. (Wait, is that really surprising?)
I shared a lot tonight, didn't I? It felt like forever before I was able to do a personal blog like this again, so I hope you're still here, following through my train of thoughts.
It is a cold night again, telling me to get few additional zzzz that I deserve, I guess, so I will stop here now. Hope ypu had a good time reading my blog this rainy Wednesday night. Stay safe everyone,
Until Next Time!
❄️ Please visit and show some love to my recent works:
