August ’23 Log: The month slipped away into a moment in time.
I’ve been obviously neglecting this blog, and all I can come up with is this silly life post in summary, so I could say I blogged—somewhat? I have bursts of ideas, but when it’s time to sit down and do that, well, you could say I got hit by procrastination. I only have the weekends to catch up, and sometimes my laziness just trumps productivity, so here we are, a forsaken blog! ☹️ But it’s not really that I don’t care about my precious, precious blog, because post-wise, it looks empty, but I did some behind-the-scenes tweaking (I’ll share a brief story in a while).
Anyway, it’s now September! Can you hear it? No? It’s officially Christmas season! 🔔🎉🎅🎁🎄 Here in PH, holidays start as early as September! I’m not kidding; Taylor was right; August slipped away into a moment in time. And here I am, about to share a very short rundown of what happened last month.
August Faves & Highlights!
- I honestly have no idea what to put here; it felt like life just happened in a blink of an eye, and just like it’s the ‘ber‘ months already. We had a simple merienda to celebrate my nephew’s birthday from far away. I also dropped a lot of my anime. I’m almost this close 🤏 to dropping Zom100 because it became lackluster. I really did love the first episode. So I ended up marathoning an old favorite, Hajime no Ippo. And now that One Piece Live Action is out, I want to marathon the anime too, at least the start, because that made me fall in love with the series (I’m not a fan of the new OP; I felt like it lost its sense of adventure).
- I had some health issues last month, though. I wound up in the hospital, but I’m glad things are normal and the meds took care of them. But I really need to go back and get my endo check because my PMS has become unbearable. I’m not sure, but it feels like my hormones have gone haywire ever since I stopped taking my pill. I need to get this check, like seriously!
- And while I didn’t blog, but I tweaked my blog. I’m trying to clean up my older posts. When I redesigned before, I had a specific post format for each theme design. When I stripped my older posts bare, the format was all over the place. I know it’s easier to just ditch them, but nope, I loved all the posts, even if the quality is questionable. I just loved my older posts; they have so much history that I love going back and rereading them sometimes. It’s so nostalgic! Aside from my older posts, I’m also trying to change blogs tiny images to SVG so they’ll look nice on any screen size! I’m not sure about my mood icon, but I changed my category icons, and they look super fine!
September Agenda
- I have some adult things that I needed to sort out, and I would have done it by now if only they answered my queries! I’ve been sending them emails week after week, and they don’t reply at all! I hope I can call them up and sort it out over the phone; if not, I have to go to their office, which means I have to take time off! Ugh, they are making things harder for us! Just ugh!
- Older brother’s birthday; I’m not sure what’s up; he said he’s out of cash! Let’s see!
- I hope to blog something; I have plenty of posts on my stash (I have a vault of posts back from my scheduling days). I may need to tweak it so it’ll comply with my TL;DR requirement. 😂
- Fam is starting to prepare for our yearly trip. I’m not sure if I’m going, because since the pandemic, the family dynamic has changed, so not all of us can go at the same time. We are eyeing this country, but I’ll just have to wait and see how the plans pan out.
Be gentle with us, September! Let’s have a great and wonderful month ahead! 😃
