I am 41 now.
I was born on March 5, 1982, in Tanauan City, Batangas and my claim to fame in my first decade of existence is spending one year and two months in preschool because I was too smart (I was accelerated) and flunking two subjects in Grade 3 because I was too playful. It's the same pattern when I got into college where I excelled in some of my subjects while failing a philosophy class, getting an incomplete in business math, and being perplexed as to why I passed my political science, land reform, and theology classes.
Nowadays, I have returned to sports blogging for the nth time with a lot of so-so articles and a bunch of awesome concepts stuck in draft purgatory. I have also returned to doing sports plugs but after two decades, I guess my biggest fear is to do this for another two decades without growth.
I think I am on the verge of copywriting retirement.
Let’s just say I want to restart my love of producing content. There is this voice in my head and it’s telling me to advertise my works on the best platforms. The problem is, I am too shy, and in some ways, I am always stuck at square one.
The favorite thing I currently own is my car. Yes, it’s a Chinese car with a sunroof and a heater, but this is MY car. When I made my requirements (under one million, parking assistance, a great alternative for commuting, and a discount that I can be okay with), my MG ZS made a lot of sense. I made a decision that I had since the time I scratched my dad’s car in that fateful drive on Luzon Avenue and the first thing that popped on my Facebook feed is the MG December promo.
Inasmuch as I love my red metallic dog, I am looking for a new favorite.
In the two years I have been listening to CNBC, Chinkee Tan, and a lot of sports card investors, I am now going to try to up my passive income. As of now, I have made a lot of bad decisions like choosing packs and boxes over individual cards as well as buying sports-based and television Funko pops instead of buying chase and convention hits. I am trying to create a more effective marketplace with better security.
I am religious but NOT THAT religious and I want to be wild but NOT THAT wild. I want the idea of belonging to something. I am a willing bitch to a thing of value. I still like to win big wars in spite of losing a bunch of small battles and I need to find ways to care less about restrictions. I am not saying that I want to involve myself in a cult, but perhaps a more productive habit with prospective friends and rivals. When I was in college and during my early days of work, I used to commit at least twice a week to LAN with my CS and DOTA2 buddies. For some time now, I wanted to try walking. Instead of exercising as my main goal, I think sightseeing and having fun could be my turning point.
I hear La Mesa Dam has a trail.
I have seen the trail but I haven't been to that trail since forever.
I miss that trail.
I want to work less and complete a lot of things. Instead of thinking of big ideas and sending them in draft purgatory, I want to send half-assed ideas with a refined outlook as the days go by.
Maybe I need to eat less food and gulp down on proverbial bucket lists?
My biggest wish is to get back my past and combine it with my future.
