Every January, I notice the same thing: everything feels like it’s moving too fast.

So I finally figured out why my weeknotes weren’t showing up.

It’s been a rough couple of weeks.

I’ve felt this heartbreak before, during Yolanda.

It’s my partner’s birthday week!

I finally have my work portfolio set up.

Arc Browser has completely ruined me.

We bought mesh wifi to fix the dead zones in the house.

We’re still experiencing tremors here in Cebu Province and the city.

We had a 6.9 magnitude earthquake last September 30 around 9:59 PM.

It’s our first night in the new house.

It’s the 53rd anniversary of Martial Law being declared in this country, and here I am out on the streets again.

We’re moving.

I didn’t write anything for August at all.

I ended up being the point person this week, which somehow meant spending more time coordinating in Slack than actually working on my own projects.

I ended up in the ER last Wednesday around 3AM because of a food allergy I never knew I had.

Some weeks ago I mentioned doing an audit of all the apps cluttering up my Mac.

I’ve been looking for ways to stay busy that don’t involve being online or glued to screens.

June’s wrapping up and I’m happy to say I’ve been walking a lot more this month.

I read about Jack Baty’s app deletion fiasco and yeah that kind of thing is never fun.

After four days with my new Casio A158WEA-9JH, I finally found the right fit.

My Casio A158WEA-9 just arrived, and I’m completely in awe with how delicate and beautiful this little thing is.

Another brutal week.

HAPPY PRIDE MONTH, MGA BAKLA!

Spent most of this week untangling the mess I made with my Links page.

This week hit me hard mentally.

The Philippines has suffered under leadership that prioritizes power and wealth over people’s needs.

It’s election season again in the Philippines.

I finally got around to finishing the design of my links page.

I spent most of my Friday, outside of work, watching and rewatching all of OK Go’s music videos, especially the classic one with the treadmills.

It’s Holy Week here in the Philippines, and for some of us, it’s been a long weekend of sleeping and bedrotting.

Been falling down a rabbit hole of personal blogs lately.

Just wrapped up Season 2 of Severance, and honestly, I’m not quite on board with the hype it’s been getting.

I’ve been sick since last week, and it’s been rough not being able to stick to the routine I’ve been following for months.

In Manila this week for a staycation with my work friends.

Former Philippines President Rodrigo Duterte’s arrest by the International Criminal Court was something I’ve been waiting to see for years.

I’ve been going through my old college photos, and I actually miss it — my friends, the happenings inside and outside the campus, the panic of oversleeping for Math class, and the stress of sitting through it anyway with my misogynist professor.

Work hit a new level of busy this week.

Feb. 23, 1986, early afternoon: Thousands of citizens in the streets.

I enjoy cleaning and organizing, and if I had all the time in the world, I’d probably do it every day.

Spent the weekend with some artists talking about the challenges of the creative scene in Cebu, especially the need for a third space or safe space.

Back to (re)building those habits again.

January felt like it lasted forever — typical of a month where everyone’s testing out their “new year, new me” plans.

This week was about finding my footing again.

7 DAMN YEARS Work has been stressful these past couple of weeks, and the urge to grab a drink hit me hard.

What a packed week in Manila!

First week back at work, and my brain feels like it’s running on Windows 95.

It’s 2025, and I’m determined to keep my Weeknotes alive!

Happy Holidays, friends!
