The long weekend is almost over—no more sleeping at 6 AM because work is waving. I've been trying to keep myself busy building and upgrading my skills, so it's safe to say my long weekend has been very productive. I also do simple tasks at work from time to time, but just add some to the Trello board because PH rarely has this long weekend tho. Good morning!!!
@kneelyrac
My late lunch. Today is the last day of the long weekend. Tomorrow, I'll be busy again because international workmates have been asking me for updates. I decided to reply to one of them and I'll work on it by tomorrow. But for now, I'm gonna finish my entry to the Hive PH blogging contest so I can proceed with studying.
@kneelyrac
Before the long weekend ended, I was able to write on Read (monthly highlights) and Hive (some spooky encounters): October Memory Dump: https://read.cash/@keeneek/october-memory-dump-448eaf58 And We Call Her Sarah: https://peakd.com/hive-188409/@kneelyrac/and-we-call-her-sarah
@kneelyrac
Late lunch again - choco flakes with fresh milk. Anyway, last week, I've accepted the fact that I'll be receiving 🆗 emoji react always and not be bothered with it. I decided to just brush it off and just think that it is because of the age gap. But yesterday, I bumped into this quote "If you don't have a question, then you probably don't understand it." So it got me to these questions again: "Is technical stuff difficult for the non-technical peeps?" "Was my…
@kneelyrac
Does it bother you if you try to share something with your friend like the message is 3-4 paragraphs and each paragraph contains 3-4 sentences, but then your friend didn't reply? Days have passed and your friend chose not to read and reply to your message. Because for me, it does. So I'm no longer gonna share and use the 'Ignore' feature on Messenger It doesn't sound good, and I'll end up with no friends I can talk to. Photo is not related by the way. I just miss coffeeworks…
@kneelyrac
I overslept! My goodness! But anyway, I received an email today that I have been chosen as one of the participants in the series of webinars, the one I applied to last month. At first, I didn't know that there will be a selection process not until I read again the post when I invited and showed it to my classmates. After that, I thought "Ah, okay. I probably won't be selected since it's more for Radio Network Engineers." The words Free and CPD are a good combo, that's why I…
@kneelyrac
Late lunch again with the same food I'd been munching for days. It's pretty convenient, especially since I don't have time to cook meals for lunch. The pro and cons of living away from home - forced diet. My weight is maintained, but I get to eat a real meal in the evening only, around 8-9 PM. Last night, I had my dinner at 9:30 PM. I was craving a sotanghon but I didn't have any energy left. So I ended up opening a canned good and then cooked the corned beef with an egg.…
@kneelyrac
There was an urgent Pull Request from the other team. I need to review it before merging it into the master branch. But then errors occurred upon building. I did trial and error for three different branches to pinpoint the errors. I had to cancel my outing tonight all because of a comma. Just wow for almost two ahwers! 🙃
@kneelyrac
I only had 2 hours of sleep. I'm extra sleepy but still on a webinar until noon. We are currently on a 15-min coffee break but there's no coffee here. 🥺 I need to reactivate my brain because there will be an assessment something. The passing score is 8/10. OMG! 🤣
@kneelyrac
Home at last. I am exhausted from the webinar and then walking in Chinatown given that I only had two hours of sleep. No more studying, blogging, or watching KDrama tonight. I just want to sleep. Good night!
@kneelyrac
I had one of the best 15-hour sleep of my life. And because of that I probably sleep at dawn again. 😅 The cycle... I want to go on hiking/walking today but it's too boring to walk alone. Good afternoon!
@kneelyrac
Just woke up! My body asked for more so I slept for 5 hours again. I was just in my room, editing the photos for my travel blog. I've been hibernating too much that I don't feel like eating. Hmmm. Good evening, everyone!
@kneelyrac
I couldn't sleep, so I decided to finish my travel blog. If you have time, check out my blog post on Hive about the picturesque gardenscape of Baguio Botanical Garden. https://peakd.com/hive-163772/@kneelyrac/a-gardenscape-what-to-see-at-the-new-baguio-botanical-garden
@kneelyrac
I'm 30 hours awake and I still can't sleep. That's why I was able to make my thoughts into words... And I try to sound calm and chill. Though not a hundred percent, I still tried! Hehe https://read.cash/@keeneek/is-it-okay-to-ok-emoji-react-at-work-374fc2f5
@kneelyrac
I had an allergy and asthma attack at dawn and drank meds right away. But even with the medicine intake, I was up for 32 hours. Just wow! I'm still sleepy so I need an iced coffee to perk me up. Angelo planned to budol me in ordering a coffee via Foodpanda, but nope...I can brew and then add fresh milk. That will do. Good morning!
@kneelyrac
So I have one colleague whose status is always "AWAY" but replies to my message with 🆗 after several minutes to a few hours. And then I have another one whose status is "ONLINE" but rarely replies to my message on that very same day even though my message is in an interrogative form. Maybe I'm the problem? It's me Hi! I'm the problem, it's me.
@kneelyrac
My three sisters messaged me to go outside and take a photo of the eclipse. Unfortunately, this is the only decent shot I have right now. Well, better luck next time.
@kneelyrac
Seeking caffeine's help to perk me up. This amount is good enough to perk me up since I slept for almost 5 hours. Just think this one is SB Java Chip. 😅 Anyway, I'll be in a meeting this afternoon. Still contemplating if I should tell her that she's under observation (probationary) for three months. A part of me wants to tell her, but the other one doesn't. And I also want to confront her respectfully since she's older than me. Oh, boy. I'm in a very difficult situation.…
@kneelyrac
I opened a checking account last 2019 because the apartment I was renting in Cebu City required PDC for the rental payment. It's been more than a year since I use this checkbook, but yesterday, I used all the remaining checks for a certain investment. Plus, I also need to order 3 more checkbooks. I want to order online but it must be claimed at the branch where I opened this account, in BPI Tibanga. I took the leap of faith last month. Scary, but excited and proud at the…
@kneelyrac
Aren't they the cutest? ❤️🥹 My sister sent these pictures to me because I was emotionally wreck the other day because I saw a video on IG reels about this doggo ina therapy. I remember my Madam Totoro. So I message @goiinmary and she gave me a few shots of them. The all-white doggo is my baby shark Yuki,and the Panda-like is Aki. But my sister calls him Tambok (fat), just like her Momma Papan. He used to be a chonky doggo. I guess this furmom needs to buy vitamins and dog…
@kneelyrac
I forgot the learning activity from last week's first webinar. I should've been asleep by now, but I'm trying to finish all the activities and quizzes since the second webinar is today, at 8 AM. How cool is that! 🙃 Oh, well... I believe in the power of cramming! 😆 Not a good student nor a role model, right? 😅
@kneelyrac
The much-needed coffee because I have a 4-hour webinar to attend and to pass again. Thankfully, I was able to wake up 15 minutes before the webinar starts. 😴 Okay, back to listening. Good morning!
@kneelyrac
This is how I eat my bread with juice or cola. Anyway, it was Q&A time when I took this photo. I didn't have questions because I'm having a hard time processing all of them. Telco topic is much harder than electronics – too many lyrics to process. Full concentration is needed and I was soooooo sleepy even with the brewed coffee. 🥲 The exam is up until 5 PM, and I need to study first. 🥲
@kneelyrac
Just woke up. After the training, instead of cooking my lunch, I decided to sleep. I'm still sleepy and my eyes are heavy, but I need to wake up and study a little bit for the exam that's about to close at 5 PM today.
@kneelyrac
"Check in a minute late and your flight has departed. Check in an hour early and your flight has been delayed." - Cross Bones, Kathy Reichs Relate much. I only miss one flight so far, and I was a minute late. But I always check in 1-2 hours early and guess what, most of my flights were delayed at least an hour. The longest delayed time was 5 hours, I think.
@kneelyrac
My late lunch for today - choco quacker oats. It's been a year since I last eat this because I shifted to rolled oats. However, I haven't bought fruits, and luckily, I bought quacker oats just in case I'm lazy about preparing overnight rolled oats. 😅 I'll be in a meeting at 2:00 PM. My communication skill will be tested again. Huehue.
@kneelyrac
The much-needed coffee. I didn't sleep last night and barely had two hours of sleep on the bus from PITC to Manggahan, General Trias. 🥲 I want to sleep already, but I need to wait for my colleague's work before I call it a day. Hays...
@kneelyrac
The much-needed coffee for the 4-hour webinar. This webinar made me realize I like electronics more than telecommunications. But electronics don't like me tho. 😆
@kneelyrac
After the webinar, I immediately fill in the necessary details and then claimed my free Maya card. Yeeey! Anyway, the webinar today was difficult to process. Now, I just want to eat good food, but too tired to cook. Hays 🥲🥹
@kneelyrac
Received this package last week and I told myself not to drink one on the weekends. However, it was already 5:25 AM, and still can't sleep—my insomnia is getting worse. So I went downstairs and drink one. Surprisingly, I was sleepy less than an hour after I drank it. Usually, it takes 2-3 hours before it will take effect. Anyway, I somehow slept around 6 AM, this morning, and I woke up at 4:20 PM. 😶 I told Mama about this and she was like, "No! Just drink milk at night."…
@kneelyrac
Mother Dragon has been asking nonstop for a mixer. Last year, she requested for KitchenAid Mixer, worth more than 30k. My soul almost left my body. 😅 At that time, I paid for the renovation of our kitchen and bought tiles for our CR. It was also Christmas, so basically, I didn't have any budget left for the mixer. Just this week, she asked it again, and I immediately said I don't have 32k. Thankfully, she downgraded it to 3k+. Pheeeew...
@kneelyrac
After 4 long months, I finally back to yoga and strength exercises. My weight has been maintained, but I want to lose more, 2-3 kg will do.
@kneelyrac
I got budoled yesterday by my friend. And because I was hungry but too tired and lazy to cook, I gave in. From 720 PHP, I only paid 260. How cool is that?
@kneelyrac
Antoni bought coffee drips a pasalubong for his new colleagues. They will have their first meet-up at their main office in Davao City and have Christmas Party on Samal Island. And guess what, he bought one for me, the assorted drips. Hehe If I tell you I don't like coffee, would you believe me? I guess not... Haha. Well, I just need coffee in my life. 👀 🧟 hihi
@kneelyrac
I went to Alabang last night to meet one of my classmates from college. She's working in a Semicon company in Cebu and is currently on work-related travel for a week, so she brought a Chicharon from Cebu! 😁
@kneelyrac
I woke up early today because of a call. I was still sleepy but couldn't sleep again. Thankfully, I brought my coffee drips here in Malate, and boy, it's super duper bitter. 😵 Not in the mood to drink a bitter coffee, so I went downstairs and bought fresh milk at 7-Eleven. Well, it's still a bit bitter but tolerable.
@kneelyrac
The passing grade for this webinar series is 80%. If I pass the quiz, I'll receive the 2 CPD points. This was divided into four webinars, every Saturday. I told myself not to mind the CPD and to finish the webinar for learning purposes. Why? Because I only had a 7/10 score. Haha. Not sure if they will give me 1 CPD (for the effort), especially since I didn't reach 80% passing. So today was the last webinar. Out of the four webinars, this one is what I like the most because…
@kneelyrac
Yesterday, after the webinar, I hurriedly prepared and went out to meet my college classmate, who I called twinnie because we share the same birthdate and her name is the Filipino version of my name. Oh, not to mention we share the same wavelength. Because of that, I forgot to message Antoni to buy Tablea for me since he's in Davao for 5 days. I was exhausted from the Friday night session, the webinar yesterday, and lastly, the gala last night. When I arrived at the unit, I…
@kneelyrac
Anthony is back from Davao and he bought all these goodies. He also bought two knitted pouches, two keychains, and two ref magnets. Oh, not to mention the chocolates and the other two prizes he won - a large rectangular pan and a turbo broiler. He won the turbo broiler because his colleagues were making fun of him by making him the team leader of a certain game, and Antoni is a very, very competitive person. He doesn't like to lose a fun game and he's good at making…
@kneelyrac
This happened last Friday and I was so talkative. Not drunk but had a little bit of confidence to talk with them. I ordered two cans of lemon-dou then Shakey's pizza and chicken.
@kneelyrac
Why do board exam-related post makes me cry? 🥺 hay grabe. Anyway, I drank coffee at this very moment because I need to study something, plus tomorrow is a holiday. Good evening!
@kneelyrac
It's a holiday today, but I have something to do. I overslept and woke up at past noon. I was supposed to have a morning hike going to Amadeo and I missed it. So I'm gonna try to have an afternoon walk instead. Let's have some chewy goodies! 😊
@kneelyrac
Brewed and drank coffee around 10:00 PM, slept on the sofa while reading at past midnight, and then woke up at 2:00 AM. And now, I'm wide awake. 👀 I can't go back to sleep, so I did some chores to exhaust myself: - Clean the CR and kitchen - Sweep the floor - Arrange the living room - Clean the fan I'm still not sleepy, so I decided to work instead. I completely forgot that sleeping for a few hours after drinking a coffee is not a good idea.
