── .✦ today, i am grateful for...

ᯓᡣ𐭩 my baby niece who was brought to our house early and looked adorable in her purple tutu dress! too bad i was busy today and wasn't able to play with her all day.

ᯓᡣ𐭩 the michael kors abbey backpack my mother gave me when i was 17 as a high-school-graduation-slash-college-freshie gift. i hadn't used the bag much because a tote bag was my go-to bag in college since i tended to bring a lot of stuff to school! yesterday, i saw the bag in my room and decided to bring it to my driving lesson today. my mom was happy to see the bag again and said that she thought i wouldn't use it again, which would have been a waste since she saved so much to buy that bag. while writing this, i checked the price of the bag (the receipts and tags were kept in one of the inside pockets) and learned that it costs more than 20k pesos! i wanted to cry of gratitude because, for context, my mom is a stay-at-home mom who depends on the allowance my father provides every month. i can't imagine how long she saved to buy me this bag. now, with this knowledge, i will take care of and treasure this bag more. oh, that things moms do for their children.🥹 i love my mom so much.

ᯓᡣ𐭩 my dad who is thoughtful enough to buy me a laptop table that i can use when im working in bed. this will help lessen my severe backache!

ᯓᡣ𐭩 the jeepney driver who brought me and his other passengers safely to our destinations. today was my first session for the practical driving course (PDC), and my driving school is around 1.5-hr jeepney ride away from home. luckily, the weather wasn't too hot. i also saw an old high school schoolmate, otep, but i think he didn't recognize me because weren't really close. i just know him by face. still, it feels good to see a familiar face after a long time.

ᯓᡣ𐭩 the safe pdc session, though i had a very bad experience with my instructor, which i will share in another post. i am just relieved that i was able to get out safe and sound. i am also extremely grateful to the driving school owner who assisted me in addressing my concerns about my instructor.

ᯓᡣ𐭩 the unplanned max's dinner at vista mall with my mom, brother, and baby niece. they drove to the town where my driving school is because they wanted to bring my baby niece to my dermatologist. she has been experiencing skin rashes for a while now, but they only appeared in few spots. however, today, my mom was shocked and concerned to see that her rashes had already spread across her chest and back. she had already been seen by another dermatologist and was prescribed an ointment, but it seemed like it wasn't working, so my mother suggested bringing her to my dermatologist, who was also my brother's dermatologist when he was young and struggling with skin asthma. unfortunately, my dermatologist won't be available until monday.

before going home, we stopped by at vista mall for dinner, but i didn't join them because i had already eaten before they picked me up. instead, i walked around h&m. there's a pink blouse and cute bell-bottom jeans that i really wanted to get but didn't have the budget for, so now, i am having a hard time finding them. i found the jeans in the clearance sale rack, but there was nothing in my size.

ᯓᡣ𐭩 the rare opportunity to talk (through messenger chat) to my high school circle. my high school bff shared her love and pregnancy journey. however, there was something in her story that i don't approve of, which i will also share in another post!

── .✦ today, i showed kindness to myself by...

ᯓᡣ𐭩 waking up and preparing early for my driving lessons. i took a bath, did my skincare routine, applied oil to my lashes and nails, and fixed my hair. it feels good to dress up and go out!

ᯓᡣ𐭩 reviewing important driving notes to prepare for my pdc.

ᯓᡣ𐭩 staying calm and believing in myself during my pdc! confidence, willingness to learn, and trust really help a student who is learning to drive! today is my first time ever driving. thinking about it, i hadn't even been in the driver's seat before! i am extremely happy and proud of myself for driving for 2 hours!

ᯓᡣ𐭩 gathering up my courage to ask for help from the driving school owner regarding my issues with my instructor. as a non-confrontational person, the decision to call took a whole lot mental. i am proud of myself for voicing out things that made me uncomfortable.

ᯓᡣ𐭩 treating myself to pesto pasta after the stressful pdc shenanigans! the pasta tasted good and was reasonably priced. it was my first time eating at that resto, and i'll definitely go back explore their menu!

ᯓᡣ𐭩 sleeping early to replenish my drained energy bank.

this day was a tough one, but i am proud of myself for conquering it bravely and strongly °˖➴,

ᯓᡣ𐭩 my breakfast crab, from yesternight's dinner. i missed eating crab so much that this was the first thing i did upon waking. i continued watching the to all the boys film series with the second installment, which i haven't finished yet since i watch it only in my free time.

ᯓᡣ𐭩 another day full of love and cuteness with my niece. i couldn't get enough of her that i postponed work today to be with her! i missed her a bunch because i hadn't seen her for 4 days over the long weekend. she's so adorable, and i am happy she is growing up healthy.

ᯓᡣ𐭩 our lumpiang togue lunch, which my mama bought from ate jean. it was freshly cooked and crispy, served with vinegar mixed with cucumber and pepper! as if it's not yet heavenly enough, i added spiced vinegar for extra kick! it's so hard to commit to a fasting schedule when blessed with these delectable food.

ᯓᡣ𐭩 hearing tfl's sangkap vol. 1, after wanting for more local sounds in my system after listening to the recently released vol. 3. i added several gems to my playlist, mostly hiphop. among is a track by the axel pinpin's propaganda machine, a band i have long been familiar with but never delved into deeply until today. i discovered that a member, the martyred marlon "ka ope" caacbay, decided to live and die among the peasants he chose to serve by fighting for the long-sought social justice through armed struggle as a guerilla fighter. nothing but utmost respect for him and his life, and raging indignation for the system that failed him and the ideology that he fought for. honor ka ope's life by listening to TAPPM's awit ni marlon, released in the band's album hindi isasatelebisyon ang rebolusyon (2017) 2 years after the demise of their fallen comrade. pinakamataas na pagpupugay kay ka ope at sa lahat ng mga dakilang martir ng rebolusyon!✊

ᯓᡣ𐭩 taking a bath and doing my skin care routine.

ᯓᡣ𐭩 being gentle with myself and allowing myself a day off to transition back from the long weekend. this unplanned rest will set my body and mood up for tomorrow's workday.

ᯓᡣ𐭩 putting an effort into adjusting and returning my body clock to it's normal rhythm. i'd been a night owl for a week or two, and it had greatly affected my work and sleep schedule, and even my leisure time! it feels good and refreshing to be back to my normal rhythm!

ᯓᡣ𐭩 delivering myself from reading self-destructive stuff, which has been tough for me because it has become a habit. but today, i succeeded in avoiding it, and i am proud of myself for that! baby steps. :)

my day may have been uneventful, but i am grateful to myself for prioritizing rest ✧˖°,

ᯓᡣ𐭩 the jamonilla luncheon meat and rice breakfast combo after months of not being able to eat it. i recommend the orginal jamonilla or the variant with ham if you find spam too salty and lotte too bland and want to find a luncheon meat with a perfect balance!

ᯓᡣ𐭩 all the kind soul behind the tumblr accounts who were thoughtful enough to follow me back and express their support for my personal endeavor. thank you, everyone!

ᯓᡣ𐭩 @lostwanderingdrifter, whom i just met today but was kind enough to accommodate my chats on film photography. i gained a bunch of new and helpful knowledge! i am looking forward to meeting more friends who share the same interest in film and digital photography and who are up for chill but fun photowalks!

ᯓᡣ𐭩 a 2012 picture with my tumblr friends that i dug up while searching for my old url. our time together may have been brief, but the memories are everlasting. i miss them a lot, and i hope that we'll have another chance to reconnect and express how proud we are of each other—from being chronically online teenagers to passionate adults.

ᯓᡣ𐭩 the flying lugaw's sangkap vol. 3 release. i discovered a lot of new local songs and artists. i am especially fond of cat boy jeepney driver's unsint a message. i've been replaying it since i finished the playlist. i've been into this bop genre lately, and i am excited to discovering more similar songs. if you have time and if you are looking for new music to listen to, please consider supporting our local artists!

ᯓᡣ𐭩 my mama, who took my rarely used shoes to repair shop. i started doing morning walks last week but needed to take a break for a few days because, aside from severe body ache, my walking shoes broke after being stored for so long. my mama is kind and supportive enough to have them repaired, and we got them back today!

ᯓᡣ𐭩 my brother, sister-in-law, and baby niece, who stopped by after attending the sunday mass. they brought puto bumbong and bibingka with them! now that i think about it, this is my first puto bumbong of the year!

ᯓᡣ𐭩 the crabs my mama bought and cooked for our dinner. i haven't had crabs in a while, so you can imagine my raging appetite after knowing our dinner. i enjoyed my meal more by rewatching to all the boys i've loved before (2018) upon hearing the news of lana condor's wedding (she's so pretty; she's one of my girl crushes!).

── .✦ today, i showed kindness to myself by...

ᯓᡣ𐭩 listening to my heart's desire to re-open a tumblr account and start my warmth journey. it is high time to do an internal cleansing before things turn the wrong way.

ᯓᡣ𐭩 cleaning my tumbler.

ᯓᡣ𐭩 making myself a matcha latte to refresh my palette after my crab dinner.

ᯓᡣ𐭩 uninstalling twitter from my phone to distance myself from mentally and emotionally draining contents.

ᯓᡣ𐭩 enjoying the remaining day of the long weekend day by letting myself rest so that i'll fully-charged for tomorrow's return to work.

this day has been kind to me, and i am grateful for the blessing of living it ♡,

to help me attain and document the goals of my personal life project, i am creating a chapter in my blog titled sealed with joy and tenderness, dedicated to recording my daily gratitude list and the kind things that I do for myself. these pages will also serve as a reminder of my progress and a way to thank myself for being kind and loving.

in this chapter, i’m excited to share with you my journey of self-love and kindness. each day is filled with little moments that bring us joy, and by acknowledging them, we can shift our mindset to something more warm. gratitude is a powerful practice that has the ability to transform how we view and engage with the world around us.

as i share my daily musings here, i hope to inspire you to create your own gratitude reflections and appreciate those small acts of kindness that make life feel so special. let’s celebrate our daily feats together and uplift one another as we strive to be our best, gentle, and loving selves! 𓊆ྀི❤︎𓊇ྀི
