【personal thoughts】The Sunday Currently | 34 |

This is one noisy Sunday, if you ask me Then again, I guess every Sunday around here is like that, whether I like it or not. In any case, I still have a lot of things to do, so I might as well start doing this. Those things had a lot to do with writing, anyway. There's journal writing and continuing a story update that I should've posted yesterday, but because of some laziness and other outside factors, I didn't get to do it. It made me decide to create a new posting schedule so that I could keep up somehow.

In any case, we'll see what will happen if I'd be able to actually do it. For now, let's just start writing what I would call a weekend update.

So this Sunday, I'm currently:

【episode comments】"A Tale Of Thousand Stars"

 

Why am I writing an entry about this, by the way? If I'm going to be honest, I don't know, as well. But I've had this urge to actually do this since last month. Sadly, I only got the time to do it today. So here I am.

And yet, instead of doing an episode by episode entry like before, I preferred doing it this way. Or you could say I decided to do it this way. Maybe because I just like to keep it short, if I can. Or maybe I'm just too lazy to even write entries per episode. Procrastinating is really not good for me who's struggling to deal with it.

Anyway, back to the topic. It's been months since this series finished airing and I'm still having a hard time letting go. Not only because of the storyline that caught my attention since I first watched the trailer, but because of the fact that this was the first BL series that I watched without skipping. Okay, it's the first BL series I watched. Period. I have to say that it was a game changer for me in some ways. Even my writer self got affected by the story, somehow.

Series Plot:

A volunteer teacher dies in a tragic accident, in which her heart is transplanted to Tian. Through a series of diary entries, Tian learns about her life, her secrets and interests. Including her promise to Chief Forest officer Phupha, about counting a thousand stars with him. Tian then decides to follow in her footsteps and complete her dream. With Tian a new volunteer teacher, he attempts to befriend Phupha. Yet Phupha gives off a cold exterior. Slowly the two grow close, but Tian's heart beats fast around the forest officer. As he starts to fall for him, much like its previous owner did. But with the area being dangerous, can they keep their thousand-star promise?

Okay. I know I missed writing and SC entry last Sunday for one reason -- I slept before I could even stop myself. I mean, I didn't realize that I actually fell asleep. I guess I was too tired to even notice it. Anyway, since it happened like that last week, I have to compensate for that by writing an entry tonight. And I have to do it while I'm still in the mood to write something and while I'm still awake. Hahaha!

So let's go!

So this Sunday, I'm currently:

Something that never fails to make you feel better.

• Chocolate
• Wafers
• Marshmallows
• Reading
• Writing
• Love songs

Should I consider it weird? Maybe not. But since I was in college, these are the things that always have ways to make me feel better. They may be quite light things (or petty should be the word -- or not), But I love them all the same. I'd actually rather eat or read or write than dwell on negative emotions too much. Not to mention, I've always been an over-thinker, which is obviously not good for me at all. So I needed to think of ways for me to calm myself down when I don't feel good mentally or emotionally.

So for my future significant other (if ever he would actually come into my life), this is one thing you got to consider about me. Or least that's what I'm thinking. Then again, we'll see.

Something that you miss.

The days in which I just write stories with no care about the future or the outcome of the stories I write. I just write because I want to and I love to share it to the world. I just write for the sake of putting down the ideas that linger in my mind on paper. At the time, I write whether or not they would love it or not. Or at least, I chose not to pay attention to it.

Another thing I miss even those are the times that the idea of love and falling in love was still so beautiful to me. Regardless of the rejection I got and getting friend-zoned a lot, it was an ideal feeling for me. It was how I've been able to write romance stories, no matter how far-fetched it would have been for me at the time.

The things I miss might be intangible, and perhaps it would have been too much, as well. But at this point, I couldn't help it.

Things you would like to do with your significant other.

You got to be kidding me. But hey, that's what the prompt had asked, so I might as well get on with it. Maybe one of these days, I'd actually be able to make it happen,

• Hiking and watching the sunrise with him. Not in a snowy area, though.
• Just enjoy a leisurely walk by the seaside hand in hand.
• Cuddle and enjoy a cup of hot chocolate while watching a series/movie.
• Dance outside, preferably slow dance/waltz.
• Pass on letters and love notes to each other from time to time.
• Get to sing love songs to each other.
• Take photos of our beautiful and even random moments together.

How would your life change if you were your own biggest fan and truly believed in yourself?

In my guess, I wouldn't be so afraid of every little failure that comes my way. As if I have this booster that says, "I can take it heads on, because I know it will help me mature and grow into a better person." At the moment, that's not what I feel, and maybe that's why I'm having a lot of trouble dealing with it.

My life would definitely be a whole lot better and I'd feel so strong and confident to do the things I love, if I truly believed in myself. It would feel amazing to be able to do such a thing for once. For someone who's filled with self-doubt, it's a little hard doing so, even for a make-believe.

But over time, perhaps something could happen. I don't know what it is, but I just have this feeling in me for a long time and I guess all I need to do is to have faith that it will happen.

Your favorite podcasts.

Honestly, I don't listen to that many podcasts only because I don't know where to look for some, especially those that would catch my interest. If my memory serves me right, the only podcasts I ever listened to since I learned of its existence (sorry for living under the rock for a long time before finding out about podcasts) were those from Thought Catalog and of #RomanceClass Podcast. Both can be found on Youtube, by the way. Well, I only got to listen to the first season of the latter one. I definitely love listening to these two so I guess I could say these are my favorites. Maybe I'll add others once I got the chance to listen to a few more.

June 2021 Wrap-Up

It's already the second day of July and I still haven't posted this. What the heck am I doing?

And that, folks, should have been my rant to myself since it took me this long to finish typing this. Well, things got a little busy around here and I didn't have time to upload it earlier than it should be. So now here I am. I'd say nothing much had happened this month, at least life-wise. I did manage to list down the things related to my writing progress and some were achieved fairly while others weren't.

So let's get on with it, I guess.
