November Memory Dump

I haven't been around for a month. This may sound redundant and annoying, but I've been caught up with life without a map. My plate is full of this and that, and I'm still struggling with how to handle them gracefully. Well, November was hectic. **1 Webinar Series every Saturday**

My four Saturdays in November were intended for webinars. I haven't been in a webinar for quite a long while, so my mind had a bit of a hard time coping with the lessons. The webinar was scheduled for four hours in the morning. I am not a morning person, so waking up at 6:30 AM is a struggle. My usual wake-up time is 9:30 AM. Now, this webinar is for my CPD points for my PRC license. But before I can have the two points per session, I need to pass the assessment and the passing is 8 out of 10. **2 Traveling to Manila to meet my best friends**

My best friend in high school whom I haven't met for five long years and Antoni decided to surprise me. Antoni wants me to socialize with other people because I've become more and more introverted and anti-social since the pandemic started. I am not a fan of going out with his friends and colleagues, so he messaged Cindy to dine with us in Binondo.

Just a week interval and another best friend was in Manila. She called me at past 1:00 AM asking if my place is far from SM MoA. Before I answered her question, I asked her if she's in Manila. Even if it was Tuesday, I traveled from Biclatan, General Trias going to Pasay just to meet her before her flight the next day, Wednesday afternoon. I had to work in a coffee shop with Antoni while she was still busy with her agenda in Manila. **3 Went to Alabang alone to meet my college classmate**

Another classmate arrived in Manila and I had to travel again to meet her. Antoni had another agenda with his classmates in high school, so I ended up commuting all by myself. I had two hours of sleep only, so I slept while traveling. Luckily, I managed to wake up before I arrived. **4 Online drinking sessions with my virtual friends**

I've been missing out on Friday Game Night because of work. It was already past 11:00 PM when I decided to join the fun night. They were already started drinking their lemon-dou. That time, I hadn't eaten for the whole day, which made me order pizza and a chicken meal at Shakeys to feed my stomach first before I drink my lemon-dou as well. The voice call ended at almost 4:00 AM. I was not drunk, but I drank something, so I instantly became more of myself. **5 Commute tutorial with my college classmate**

Antoni was in Davao for work and my classmate's husband was in Japan for work as well. So we decided to go out and visit Mitsukoshi. Mic-mic worked in Japan for 3 years so she wanted to go there and check the manga collection. That day was also my last day of the webinar. While she was on her way to PITX, I was still gearing my brain just to pass the last assessment test. (I scored 9/10. Hehe) With me being late plus the traffic, we arrived at BGC at almost 6:00 PM already. We had so much fun walking around and dining at the Mercato, at the back of Mitsukoshi. I taught her how she can commute from her workplace to Dasma and vice versa. **Previous articles:** **Learn, Communicate, Understand, and Coexist** https://read.cash/@keeneek/learn-communicate-understand-and-coexist-c37fbb05 **Is It Okay to OK Emoji React at Work?** https://read.cash/@keeneek/is-it-okay-to-ok-emoji-react-at-work-374fc2f5
