I woke up this morning wanting some Filipino Food. So I decided to get groceries first. Get some coffee. And go to a craft store while I wait for the only Filipino store in town to open at 11 am.

I love craft stores. It’s always a very dangerous trip when I go…I tend spend money there. For things like sketch books, art supplies, stickers…You get the idea. However, today, I let myself peruse the aisles. Grab something that I would normally buy, hold it for a bit, and actually decide if I need it or not. And I find myself putting it back on the shelf. Hooray for some self discipline! The three things that I decided to get today were a dot grid journal, a 12 inch ruler, and a 6 inch ruler. Why? Well the rulers, I really need new ones, the one I have is broken. Why two? One is for home use and the shorter one goes in my pen case that I bring everyday. The dot grid journal is because I am itching to go back to manual bullet journaling. Why? I already have some kind of version of this digitally through Notion but I find the mobile version and the view for the template I’m using is not something I find usable. And no way in hell I’m opening that on my work laptop. I just find it relaxing when I’m doing it by hand. Granted I don’t go crazy creative on my bullet journal, I just find comfort in using pen on paper.

My hun and I played It Takes Two today. Apparently for almost 3 hours. I thought it was shorter than that to be honest. But I guess I shouldn’t be surprised. Time tends to move faster when you’re having fun. And I did have fun regardless of the fact that I am a potato gamer. I got frustrated at times, I cursed, and I died a lot. My hun had to constantly coach me. I do hope he doesn’t get tired of coaching me if we’re playing together. I enjoy playing video games with him. I like trying out things that he enjoys doing.

We watched a movie today…Crazy Stupid Love. There were cringe moments for sure but I enjoyed it. Obviously, there were some problematic parts that would not fly if that movie came out today. One of my favorite scenes was the Hannah’s and Jacob’s PG-13 one night stand. Why? Well instead of them actually having sex for that night, they just ended up talking until Jacob falls asleep with Hannah putting a blanket on him and kissing him on the cheek. Another one was when Emily called Cal and lied that there was something wrong with heater when in truth she just misses him.

We also finished Cells at Work Season 2. I still couldn’t believe that there were only 8 episodes. But it’s all good. That anime definitely is so precious to me. It really did a good job of explaining the functions of the cells in the body. And I appreciated that so much. The only thing that I really missed in the 2nd season is the lack of interaction between Red Blood Cell AE3803 and White Blood Cell U-1146. The relationship or interaction between these two cells was so pronounced in the 1st season and I felt like they barely interacted in the 2nd season.

Tomorrow, we’re planning on watching Bourne Identity. My love hasn’t watched it yet, and I watched it a long time ago so I really don’t remember much of the story. All I remember is that I loved that movie after watching it. So if we end up watching it tomorrow, it will feel like I’m watching it for the first time. I mean, even if I had watched something multiple times, I still have the same reaction anyway. So it’s not going to matter.

Also, I finished My Friend Anna. I went into that book because of Anna Delvey and the con. But to be honest that book is about Rachel’s and Anna’s relationship – the progression and downfall of their friendship. I liked the book and I recommend it. All I’m going to say is the show Inventing Anna did Rachel dirty. Reading Forrest Gump next.
