It's the Coffee Talking

 The caffeine kicked in and I find myself here in this site to which only this laptop knows my username and password. Recently, there's been a resurgence of snail mails and people got creative and they write a letter, with some artprint and stickers other ephemera, stuck it all inside a nice envelope and sell it for a pretty penny. I got some, of course, but it doesn't feel sincere coz it is generic. sometimes they all have the same theme of romantizicing life, slowing dowm, going for a pause, yadda yadda yadda. I love the artprints and maybe the stickers but I am done. for now.  Anyway, this lead me to more art related stuff like journaling, washi tapes and rubber stamps. The latter is my kryptonite and when the gate opened up for me, not knowing before that there's a world out there full of these cute stamps, I was like a kid in a candy store. I went crazy and down the rabbit hole, nothing much in the local shores so have to look in China, Taiwan, Japan and Malaysia. Mayb...

 How's life these days? a bit busy. I should really be moving at a fast pace trying to solve all problems and if only I could focus well. These problems would vanish. Alas, I am just me. maybe I should ask  AI to write my thoughts more articulately lol

 so I had three cups of coffee today or was that yesterday. and that's how many it takes for me to clear some things in my room, to see every speck of dust and wanting to clean them but I cannot, for now. Dust will fly everywhere and that cannot happen, might trigger some allergies. Bad enough that I have to deal with dust on the daily but there's some mild mold infestation, too. Sunny days, you get dust. Rainy days, humidity and some molds, same during colder weather. Can't win. And yea, now I see how I am truly hoarding stuff.  can't continue, to write it all down as to how bad it is now is making me depressed so, let's skip that.

  I was looking for a free blogging site because wordpress is not working for me. Can't access my account. Then I tried this Blogger.com, and to my surprise I have an account here lol. coz I forgot, of course. and I don't know my password here either.  Well, because of the Sylvanian Families and the Hironos, I needed some display cabinets and that started me searching for Japan Surplus. It was difficult to find pieces that don't look too dated or you know in one look everyone will know it was a surplus item coz of the style and the paint. Win some, lose some. The Nitori chairs were a good find but kind of expensive when months later after I got them Nitori opened their first ever branch in the country pfffft. But I got me one brand new chair which is yet to be assembled. I got it in blue. Now I want the mocha one,too but currently out of stock. Almost all of the furnitures on Nitori online are either out of stock or for preorder same story if you go to their store. It's...

 I got another watch and this time it is from the classic brand Seiko. I have overlooked Seiko watches because it is so common and there are lots of fakes. I am not wrong but recently I have learned that the high end watches still fetch a hefty sum, a quarter of a million pesos for new and limited editions and these are the ones made in Japan, for real. Okaaayy.. so maybe it is only right that I include Seiko in my collection but I needed to find something unique and not scream Seiko. Usually those stainless steel silver or gold watches, right? I found one in leather, of course and I couldn't find a seller locally. It is available on Ebay for less but it will take some time for it to get here then there's the custom dues. Some decades past this is not a problem, most of the watches I have I bought off from Ebay. And they just ship those watches in the mail like some letters, lol. Anyway, can't hurt to ask so I asked the official Seiko seller online if they have that particu...

  HUAWEI MATEBOOK 16s - ALMOST ONE YEAR REVIEW It is selling for less than 60K nowadays, I knew it! they just bundled those useless watch and earbuds. Useless coz I don't like wireless earphones and the watch is more like a guy watch. Well, is it is any consolation, this spruce screen is already sold out, I don't like the drab space gray they have.  So, this is great, bigger screen, crisp and working good. The chicklet keyboard is very nice to type on with just the right key travel. I have ports, not enough USB ports but I guess, I should get a USB-c hub. The Dell is still the main workhorse tho.  But it is working great! gotta admit that the Macbook has its coolness factor but I made my choice.
