Currently in August

Taken from the Birch Aquarium at Scripps

A post was supposed to go live this morning, but I didn't have much time to finish my draft last weekend because we were out with family. We saw Jo Koy at Shelter Island, and man, he was so hilarious! If you don't know who he is, look him up on YouTube, and laugh at your own expense!

He's definitely famous among Filipino immigrants because he's Filipino-American himself, and most of his materials are about Filipino culture that especially Filipinos could definitely relate to! 

It's been a while since I shared a currently post on here, so I'm settling on that for today's belated post (from Becca):

+ THINKING about whether to cook tonight's dinner or convince Roan to do so. I'm kind of craving one of his "specialties".

+ FEELING scared about tomorrow's trip to the dentist. I went to have my teeth cleaned last month, and I've since been scheduled for a wisdom tooth extraction, two fillings, and a possible root canal this month. I don't think I can handle that much pain in a day.

+ READING nothing. After all those weeks of reviewing the DMV California Handbook, I don't think I'm going to start reading again anytime soon. (Reading blog posts are an exception, though!)

+ WATCHING half of The True Cost later. Roan and I have been into watching documentaries a lot lately.

+ TRYING to convince myself that tomorrow's going to be fine, but I'm seriously dreading the trip to the dentist. Thanks to ten years of wearing braces, my teeth had become too sensitive!

+ COOKING nothing.

I'm having leftover bacon and eggs (from breakfast) for lunch. I love that Roan makes me breakfast almost everyday!

+ EATING bacon and eggs!

+ DRINKING a glass of Gold Peak's Lemon Iced Tea. We got a bottle at the grocery last night, and I realized that I haven't had this in months!

+ CALLING no one. I might start calling my medical insurance provider next week (post-surgery) to reschedule my doctor's appointment a week earlier (if possible).

+ LOVING my husband more each day in spite of each other's differences.

+ ENJOYING finally driving around the city since I got my driver's permit last Friday! The only thing that held me back from driving since I got here is the legality of not having a driver's license in case I violate any rules of the road, which I never wish to happen! Happy to say that I'm comfortable driving here where most people go by the rules. I definitely need to make some adjustments because driving in Manila is a completely different story.

+ HOPING that the job post I saw online will still be available in the coming weeks, when it's not as crazy as it is now! I think I'm ready to start working since I'm driving. I know it's very unlikely since it's looking for immediate hiring, but I'm hoping!

+ LISTENING to children playing next door.

+ THANKFUL for every morning that I get to see the light of day.

+ FINISHING this post?
