Day 453
Well, hello there from the same corner. It is Day 453 and I’m still typing this from my 26-inch desk, feeling giddy that it’s Friday. I’m waiting for my hair to dry up as I just finished my bath but it’s quite cold at 27 degrees and it’s gonna take longer than usual. Anyway I just want to dump some recent memories here:
The second round of ECQ was lifted in May 14 and Ian and I are now able to see each other again! The COVID-19 phase I previously mentioned has also been graduated from and for that, we are grateful!
Mama celebrated her birthday twice this year and though it’s quarantine celebration part 2, glad that the execution made her happy!
We also got to bond with my sister who was able to go home again after ECQ
And our college barkada managed to have a mini get-together only it’s virtual, but I’d take any form of reunion with these guys! This call lasted eight hours — Ian and I were outside having dinner when it started and in our respective homes already when it ended at 4:30 in the morning! Aaahh, these dudes! Wish we are quarantined altogether haha!
NIGHTBIRDE! Aaaahh, this golden buzzer moment made me cry as many times I watched this clip! Jane’s authenticity is a given here, and she’s become such an inspiration! But what I love about this even more is how she and Simon connected deeply in an instant. Simon has always been a man of critic and a few words if I may say that (or fewer than Howie) but his quietness and his blank face in this scenario, though he didn’t show much of a reaction, but that’s it exactly — the lack of it ironically showed how he got hit hard. And it’s beautiful. Also, more than her story, her song It’s OK is indeed a good one and deserves all the streams it has been receiving since the AGT episode!
