The Sunday Currently, Quatro

It's been a while since a had a The Sunday Currently.. and now doing it on a Monday! LOL! Well, it's just almost 1am though.

Reading
Devotionals from the Bible app I downloaded. Admittedly, I don't do this consistently but I need this, because I need God

Writing
None. However, I posted a poem attempt I made almost two years ago as I was reminded of that feeling (https://khristineslife.blogspot.com/2018/01/i-want-to-but-i-shouldnt-love-poem.html)

Listening
The Greatest Showman movie soundtrack. Oh em gee! The movie is so beautiful, highly recommended!

Thinking
The treadmill run tomorrow. I need to hit my training targets! Otherwise, my 15k attempt will be a fail.

Smelling
None, but I am loving my house' smell after cooking my meal :)

Hoping
For a good week. I actually have a case study interview on Tuesday for a company. Praying for God's will

Wearing
Shirt and shorts

Loving
The Greatest Showman! This movie deserved that applause we gave (many in the theater clapped) after the movie. You should watch it!



And oh, the newest addition to my home. The sofa!

Wanting
To see him, to have more conversations with him. Hay, why can't this feeling go away?

Needing
Bring back my passion for ministry

Feeling
Hopeful and praying for the next days and weeks to be great

The Sunday Currently, Tres

Skipped some weeks (yeah, I forgot) and since today's New Year's Eve, aside from this post, I will also have a 2017 Reflection. Anyway, here's what I have today!


Reading
None, as usual. But because of Ang Larawan, I'm looking into reading A Portrait of the Artist as Filipino by Nick Joaquin. It's a three-act play.. now where to find a physical copy, I don't know


Writing
My 2017 reflections. I've been doing this as a personal tradition since 2011 if I am not mistaken.


Listening
Footsteps from outside and faint street noises. I wanted to just rest for a while before I go to church, get the lasagna I ordered from House of Lasagna (love, love, love their Beef Lasagna!) and go home to spend the new year with my siblings, nephew and niece


Thinking
A lot of things. Reflecting on what happened in 2017 is not as easy as the previous years. Been thinking of it for a while but still have nothing to write


Smelling
Just my room. And I realize that if I want this area to be my sanctuary, I need to bring back my oil burner (copied from my previous post, lol)


Hoping
That I won't get sleepy later at church lol! Seriously, I only slept for four hours and have a long day ahead. Maybe I can catch some zzz's when I get home


Wearing
Shirt and shorts


Loving
What happened two days ago, our annual get together. I've always been looking forward to that every Christmas season and this year was great!




Wanting
To sleep, have my eyebrows done (because kilay is life lol) and a good massage. Maybe tomorrow :)


Needing
Okay, I just don't want a massage, I need it! lol!


Feeling
Hopeful. Seeing my condo unit slowly looking like a home, I am hopeful and expectant that 2018 will bring more blessings and turn my unit into my home. Excited to bring in visitors!


Have a great new year, everyone! Enjoy tonight's celebrations.

The Sunday Currently, Dos

I am almost 24 hours awake, mainly because I am still at a high with my recent 10k run c/o Affinitea. I think I have to create a separate blog for that. Here's my result according to Strava:


But hey, while it's already Monday (time check: 1:16am PH time), it is still Sunday in most parts of the world. So here's my 2nd round of The Sunday Currently.

Reading
My run results in Strava. Yes, I still can't believe that I finished the race. I almost gave up on the 7k stretch because my legs are getting stiff and left pelvic area hurts... followed by the right area, don't know why.

Writing
This text message that I will be sending to my broker. She didn't show up in multiple times that she promised to give what she needs to provide. One more and I will file a formal complaint (wait, I already filed one without response) if she will not comply.

Listening
Just my aircon noise, about to sleep.

Thinking
On when I should be running my next 10k. I will actually look for schedules for January or early February for another 10k run before going a step higher - 21k... yes, half marathon!

Smelling
Just my room. And I realize that if I want this area to be my sanctuary, I need to bring back my oil burner.

Hoping
That I will be able to buy what I need to buy. My Christmas gift list is less than 50% done ugh!

Wearing
A t-shirt and old jogging pants

Loving
The fact there are people who are happy that I started running. Well, in reality, I started 4 months ago but only known to a select few

Wanting
To eat! But I can't because I need to sleep!!!

Needing
A good massage! My body is craving for one

Feeling
Relieved. My dog, a male shih tzu was sick last Friday. I thought it's something really bad but glad that it's cold. One fact though is that when dogs get cold, they lose their appetite and vomit.


Alright! That's it! Have a great week ahead, everyone! :)

The Sunday Currently, Uno

Okay, I know it's a Tuesday (my Monday shift) early morning. But forgive me on this one. I was so tired from my Sunday activities that I slept and woke up at 8am the next day! Whew! So here it is, my first Sunday Currently.

Reading
Work emails. Yep.

Writing
I have this crazy idea of creating messages that should be read by people when I die. It's in my draft section and for regular update. So people, if I indeed die and you see this post, you know what to do.

Listening
Office noise... a very faint one and few vehicles at EDSA

Thinking
What time I should sleep and wake up to run

Smelling
Nothing specific, maybe myself? LOL

Hoping
That I will be able to run 45 minutes later

Wearing
Blouse and slacks, my work clothes

Loving
Him! Sino ba kamo? Basta sya!

Wanting
A piece of cake #ihatesweets LOL

Needing
Still some hugs. Someone to tell that everything will be alright

Feeling
Excited and anxious for my FIRST 10k race on Sunday. I was able to run that distance last Saturday and still can't believe at the results (see below)

The Sunday Currently Trial

I would like to revive my blog to document some of those I've said while talking to myself (I am so sure you talk to yourself, too! Lol!)

Then got this idea from celebrity Maine Mendoza on publishing weekly blogs called The Sunday Currently. This was created by siddathornton to publish what is 'currently' happening to ones life. What a good idea! We as adults tend to either focus at the past and/or the future while ignoring what is happening NOW!

The post is supposed to be simple, not sure though if it really is for me lol! But I should answer the following:


  • Reading (Okay, I don't read books so this may be hard)
  • Writing
  • Listening
  • Thinking
  • Smelling (hmmm.. myself? Lol!)
  • Wishing
  • Hoping
  • Wearing
  • Loving
  • Wanting
  • Needing
  • Feeling
So let's see, it's not yet Sunday but let me consider this as a practice.

---------------------

Reading
My project plan at work. Well, yes, I am currently at work lol!

Writing
This blog!

Listening
Okay, this may be weird to some, but I am listening to a recorded AM radio program

Thinking
How to plot the process document for my project (again, I am at work)

Smelling
3-in-1 coffee that I just drank

Hoping
That I can keep myself awake tonight and finish my target run later

Wearing
Blouse and slacks, my work clothes

Loving
The fact that I will be able to fill my condo unit with house stuff!

Wanting
To run! Finish 10k on Saturday!

Needing
Some hugs. Someone to tell that everything will be alright

Feeling
I honestly don't know. Nothing? 

---------------------

There! Let's see if I can sustain this. Good night!

A Love Letter You Will Never Read

It’s been eight years. I can’t believe we were able to survive Christmas and New Year celebrations without you. It’s been pretty tough, and ...
