september so far

🍀 i started taking supplements to help out with my gut health because lately i have irregular bowel movements. i think my metabolism is starting to slow down.

🍀 i've been taking biotin and gluta to help out with my skin complexion. i have discoloration all over.

🍀 when i cleaned my room last weekend, i realized that i have collected way a lot of colognes than i could consume before they go bad. i'm pretty sure i don't smell so i'm not sure why my co-workers give me colognes/perfumes as a gift.

🍀 my boyfriend and i had planned to go out on a date on multiple occasions this month but we always end up sleeping it off at home. why? because it keeps raining on the weekend.

🍀 i'm still debating if i should buy a day6 concert ticket or if i should just buy furniture. we need a shoe rack and a cabinet and i'd be so guilty if i spend money on concert tickets.

i keep seeing posts about issues after upgrading to ios18. meanwhile my xs max works fine after updating it 🤷🏻‍♀️

i wanted somewhere where i didn't have to feel his ghost.

trigger warning: sexual assault

ghost. that's what he was after it happened. i feel his hands everywhere, as if all of it was happening all over again. i'm still hoping i get enough courage to report him to hr, but there are matters that needed to be dealt with first. he opened a pandora's box. all of what i have buried from my traumatizing childhood dug their way out of their graves. it's as if they just happened yesterday. i wanted somewhere where i didn't have to feel his ghost, but i have no where to go. he was everywhere i go. it's been over a year now, and i haven't recovered. i managed, though at times barely, but i miss the feeling of owning this body and being comfortable in it.

currently reviewing a fraud claim by a customer who participated in a cryptocurrency scam. this case is the same as what my boyfriend had participated in and i thought i have forgotten about it already. i warned him about the possibility of it being a scam when he was talking me into investing, but he risked his savings anyway. he ended up losing his money and i didn't know how to comfort him. i am reminded of it again but i can't tell him how uncomfortable that made me feel because it's not my money in the first place.

it's still two weeks away but i'm so anxious. i haven't bought a concert ticket online thru SM 😭 i don't know what to do.

🌱 i couldn't focus at work today so i ended up binging young sheldon. i wanted to stretch season 6 because season 7 is not yet available but i really don't have anything to watch aside from this one so i had no choice. nothing seems to tickle my fancy in netflix these days.

🌱 i miss my boyfriend's cooking. not sure if this is pms or what but earlier today when i woke up, i almost cried at the thought that i'm responsible for what i'm going to eat for the weekend because i'm not with him. i went back to my apartment to clean the mess caused by carina, but i ended up consuming all my energy yesterday to cleaning our living room. i cannot find any excuse as to why my roommates couldn't mop the floor, it was so dirty that i had to mop it twice with soap.

🌱 and while i'm at it, let me tell you again to not rent with your friends if you don't want to ruin your relationship with them. i am yet to confront them with how messy the house was when i got back, but i already told them i'm not extending the contract. i'm tired cleaning for them.

🌱 i used to think that it was okay to always be the one who cleans the common areas first because cleaning used to be fun for me, but after almost two years it started to feel like a chore. a chore that no one is willing to do aside from me. i was away for almost one month and first thing i do when i get back is clean, because trust me, it doesn't feel great at all to come home to a house like that.

went back to our apartment for this cutie but ended up cleaning the living room because it looked like no one lives here anymore 😮‍💨 don't rent with your friends because it might ruin your relationship with them.

i've been reading the midnight library for almost two months now and i'm only halfway through it 😭

iphone 16's camera placement makes it very identical to my nothing phone 1 🫣

an hour walk is not bad considering i slept the entire weekend.

lately someone has been tapping on my neglect wound. i know she's going through something herself but oftentimes i feel like she only misses me when she needs me. lately i feel like she only misses me when i'm needed. and i'm starting to realize that i'm not okay with it.

a person is like a city. you couldn't let a few less desirable parts put you off the whole.

first work day after the long weekend wasn't so bad

[theministop]

I didn't know that it would be this lonely.

re-watching Because This Is My First Life for the nth time while working from home because i'm having a hard time navigating through my emotions. this show is like an older sister i open up to when things are harder for me as an adult. it gives me so much comfort.

i want my boyfriend to stop apologizing for the minor inconveniences beyond his control 🥺👉👈

[theministop]

might need to read textbook so that i can correct my boyfriend with references 🤣 i was right all along pala na he might be referring to boiling point not freezing. ina-assume ko kasi lagi na tama jowa ko kasi feeling ko mas matalino siya sakin 🥲

Sorry to burst your bubble, but sure, freezing kills some bacteria, but most are inactivated and get reactivated once thawed. Many viruses are also resistant to freezing temps (e.g., norovirus, which causes gastroenteritis). And no, we don't freeze meat to "kill bacteria" but to preserve it. But you're right, though, that tap water in Manila is generally safe to drink. :D

thank you for educating me 🫶
