Meanderings of a coffee junkie. @achau211 - Tumblr Blog

Long time, no see.

Hey there, stranger! I know it’s been a minute since I last posted an entry. So much has happened in my life since I last posted in 2020. The major news I wanted to share was that I lost my beloved mother in November 2021 due to a massive stroke caused by an aortic dissection that prevented blood flow to her brain. Prior to that, in 2019, she had a transient ischemic attack (T.I.A.) which…

A long-overdue update

Happy new year, everyone! It’s 2019! Also, Gong Xi Fa Cai! It’s Chinese New Year, and it is the year of the Pig. I’m finally updating my blog again. It seems that my updates have become few and far between. I know that I keep saying that at the beginning of every year, that I was going to update my blog more frequently, but that hasn’t really happened, and I apologize for that. That is, if I…

It's been a while.

It’s been a while.

Well, to say that things are quite different in the world these days is an understatement. We are in a middle of a pandemic, people are more divided than ever, and instead of doing something to help humankind, leaders choose to cause more hurt and division, in a very volatile time in this country (and the world).

This pandemic: Corona virus. People can’t seem to agree to be human and show care…

Movie time, and some tea.

I’m sorry I wasn’t able to update yesterday. After work, I went home and took a long nap, after a quick lunch. I woke up around 7-ish, and found myself craving for some donuts. So, off I went to Dunkin Donut and got a couple of glazed donuts. Made a quick detour to Starbucks and got myself and my mom a drink.

I really need to watch my sugar intake though, as I have gained quite a lot of weight…

Friday recap (with green tea).

I realized that my blog is titled “Meanderings of a coffee junkie.” COFFEE junkie, and yet I’ve been talking about having green tea for past few days. Fear not, I have not given up on coffee! I still drink it in the morning.

Went out to dinner, this time with my other aunt, my mom’s youngest sister. She wanted to treat my mom for her birthday, and she invited me along. Had some good Filipino food…

Green tea time, and a recap.

Today is my mom’s birthday! Went out to dinner for her birthday, along with my aunt and uncle. Mom requested Norm’s because she really likes their steak. I’m happy they had some country fried steak tonight, as it is my favourite on their menu. As soon as we got home after dinner, I gave her my gift to her, an black and brown purse, which she absolutely loved! That was the first bag that caught my…

Today’s recap

Hectic Wednesday at work. We started 2 new group music classes for kids tonight. Then, had “praise & worship” practice for this coming Sunday morning worship service. Back to playing the keys, after playing the cajon for the past 2 Sunday. Got home around 11-ish, and managed to wish my mom a Happy Birthday before she went to sleep (she might still be up, actually, perusing Facebook, at 1:09am).…

Today’s recap

Well, my phone finally conked out on me, so I had to get a new one. I’ve had my iPhone 6 Plus since 2014. And I’ve dropped it on concrete floor countless of times in the past few months, and it would just restart on its own. It served me well.

Today was quite uneventful at work, save for a couple of students who called in to cancel their lessons due to the flu. Thank the Lord, I finally got my…

End of day.

Good evening, my good people. I hope that you have had a wonderful day, and for some who live on the opposite side of the world, I hope your day will be wonderful. Today is the end of day, Sunday. The day started off as usual, getting up early to go to church. After-church lunch fellowship followed, and then my mother and I spend some time hanging out at Starbucks, as sort of our dessert time.…

Update!

Since the last time I did a proper update, I was supposed to have surgery to take out the fibroid sitting on top of my uterus. As of 2 weeks ago, my OB-GYN advised me not to have the surgery, for now, since I might still have a chance of bearing children. There were a few deciding factors as to why the doctor advised against surgery at this time: I haven’t been pregnant, have never tried to be…

Game plan.

I need to a game plan. I gotta get things moving. Me, getting surgery to get my fibroids out have lit a fire under me. I just hope I can follow through. I’ve been complacent for sooo long. I think I’ve been discouraged with my circumstances that I just think I’ve just been comfortable in my complacency for many, many years. I need to be more motivated now, more than ever.
