Beautiful Sunday # 387 - Wish List

This post should have been intended for last week. Unfortunately, my laptop messed up. I lost the photos transferred from my camera. I can't figure out what went wrong. I downloaded a number of software recovery files. The few that captured my lost files eventually required payment to fully recover my photos. The other free software that provides free recovery cannot capture my files. I gave up after several days. I accepted that my hours of hardwork are gone. 

Beautiful Sunday # 386 - Positivity

So much to be grateful from the past week. Some surprise from the mail, meeting a great friend, a cousin who voluntarily assisted me for an errand, accomplishment from work and looking forward for a quick holiday. Aside from the Christmas vacation, I love the short holiday for All Saints and All Souls Day. It's a much needed breather before the upcoming season comes to a full swing. I get to see some family members and fulfill my annual day out with my mother. On top of my quiet time with the family, I'm hoping to finish a long overdue report. If things will fall in place, I'd like to start anew after the holiday break. I really need to wrap up this task.

Book Review : The Odd 1s Out

I've seen fully stocked copies of The Odd 1s Out in Fully Booked early this year. I always browse a copy and leave it on the shelf later. It was interesting but expensive. Fast forward to the Manila International Book Fair last September, I decided to finally purchase. I still find it expensive even with the discount. But reviews from Goodreads convinced me to purchase. I still had doubts but after finishing the book, I think I got my hard earned money's worth. At this point, you can already feel the direction of my review.

She does everything she can and everything she can't

Facebook and Instagram memories sometimes do the trick. A past status message or photo upload is more than enough to unearth a never ending saga of realisation. Past struggles, accomplishments, great times with the family, silliest adventure with friends, rare travel opportunities, farewells, failures, frustrations to a shallow reshared post. I get reminded of life years ago.
