Post 63: Happy Thoughts (Part 2)

After a rough June 2026, these three happy thoughts kept me going.

Honestly, I had a bad history with August for several years. But thankfully, it has been a good few weeks so far, and having these happy thoughts has been helpful.


Watching Comedies

My hobbies (e.g., listening to my favorite music and watching Person of Interest) have been comforting. But with all the constant working and writing lately, I need something more cheerful or even stupid to reset my mind. So, recently, thanks to Netflix, I’ve watched two Jim Carrey films: The Truman Show and Yes Man. One is thought-provoking, and the other speaks volumes; both made me laugh, and I needed that.

Drinking Hot Tea

Satchmi’s hot Earl Grey tea with raspberry sauce on the side.

As much as I love drinking black coffee in the morning, I had to cut back for my health. And since it’s been raining a lot lately, nothing is more comforting than a cup of hot tea. When I’m comforted, I’m happy.


Upcoming Plans

Because the Christmas season in the Philippines starts next month (yes, you read that right), so are my upcoming plans, which excite me! One of those plans involves my family, and it’s almost complete. I look forward to that, and I hope to make the other plans happen soon.


That’s it, pansit. Happy almost-weekend!
