May 2018 Monthly Journal




Pardon for the title but I am just trying to be witty, but failed I guess. This month, I was able to figure out a scheme to better document all my activities within the month. It actually made me do this article easier, than how I did in the previous months. So, I am expecting to regularly do this now on a monthly basis.

The month of May has been very fruitful, gaining a lot of things in different aspect from friends, followers, knowledge to even savings. My Vlogsite has been regularly updated as well. I was also able to attend a seminar and learned a few things that could help uplift my social media standing. You might already get tired just by looking at the things I did in this month but I guess keeping my self very busy and having a very unusual pattern is something I really enjoy.

Day  01 – Harry Styles Concert

Harry Styles, Monster Milkshake, Gringo and SM Surplus Seeing an international artist like Harry Styles is something I could consider a chance of a lifetime. So when I asked to attend the event, I ecstatically said yes! I was given a platinum pass and went to see Harry Styles in Concert in SM MOA Arena. I was with MJ and Rod at the said event. Harry Styles was so charming that I even enjoyed his songs that I do not even know.

Day  02 – STV Meeting  | Gringo Delivery | Changing Partners Press-Con

Harry Styles, Monster Milkshake, Gringo and SM Surplus Long day as I juggle work, eat and play. A package from Gringo came in while we were in a meeting. Perfect timing! In the evening I went to attend Changing Partner‘s press conference with Edward Santos. Funny situation happened as I told Edward about the story about one of cast of the play.

Day 05 – Monster Milkshake with Ralf King

The training was in preparation for the July 2018 Tough Mudder race. It was really hardcore but still exciting. I was both sweating yet really happy that I survive the training. Thou, I felt a bit shy mingling with these familiar faces, I would love to be back and do this thing again and again.

I was invited by one of their major sponsors – Yakisoba, to try the fun run. Funny that the real essence of the Runflatables wasn’t realize for all the inflatables were not inflated on time. Making all the attendees demand for a refund after the run. This was a major epic fail for their first event.

Day 28 – Tough Mudder training 

052818 Tough Mudder at Obstacle Sports Factory Monday again and I am back into training. Today was really rough training day, for each team would need to carry a plank while doing the obstacles. In the warm up, I teamed up with Luis Hontiveros. He was way too energized than I am. I was part of Team 2 when the group activity begin, composing of 3 girls and 2 guys. Unfortunately, I was too tired to do all the activities that I felt dizzy right after the warm up. Aside from that, I wasn’t able to finished the race due to some injury I acquired trying to do the EVEREST. I got injuries in both knees and fingers due to rope burns. It hurt so badly that I could not even wash it with water. Hopefully, it will all heal up before Monday so I could go back again and train.

After the training, Nick, Lharby, Rhea, Jeff, Luis, Brent and I went to have dinner in BGC.

Day 29 – Health For Juan and Juana, PICC 

Universal HealthCare event at PICC (080529)  Back in PICC Manila, to do a Voice Over Gig courtesy of Slerg. My call time was 5 in the morning and I needed to stay and work there till 7pm. It was a long day but satisfying as well, learning that the client were happy with my performance (even though I did a lot of pronunciation errors). Hopefully, they would not get tired of getting me in other projects in the future.

That is the end of my post so let us now Welcome June 2018!
