Tidbits in Bullets 6/52

Happy Lunar New Year! It's a non-working holiday here but I had to do work anyway. :/ Thankfully, going to the office was not made mandatory so I just worked from home.

Last week's highlights

• I got mail! To be more specific, I received a Christmas card that a friend overseas sent before Christmas. Because the Philippine postal system is so terrific, the card arrived in the city post office a month after Christmas and got sent to my house a week after. Still, I suppose it's better late than never. My friend was just happy I actually got it, since the one she sent for Christmas 2014 never saw the light of day. :/


• Us Arashi fangirls based in the Philippines lost our marbles when we found out that Sakurai Sho stepped foot on our country. He actually mentioned in his blog entry last January that he was overseas for work, but none of us had an inkling that he actually had work in the Philippines. It turns out that he went to the area devastated by Typhoon Haiyan (local name: Yolanda) as part of a documentary to be aired in March. Maybe it was best that we didn't see him, after all, if only because the work he did was very serious in nature. It wouldn't have felt right to flail if we did get to see him.


• I watched a piano competition to support a friend who was one of the contestants. It brought me back to the days when I studied classical piano, joined recitals, and occasionally competed with other students from different branches of the school. A part of me misses it, but I also realized some things. (Hopefully I'll get to expound on that soon.) After the competition I went to the nearby mall and had some Costa Coffee! :D

This week, I'm looking forward to...

• watching Deadpool with my sister on the weekend! We're both loving the advertisements for the movie, and my sister received a SkullPoopL shirt from a friend as a gift


• celebrating the 40th(!) wedding anniversary of an aunt and uncle. I'm mostly looking forward to the food. XDDDDD
