In The Crunch, For The Wrong Reasons

I don't think I've ever had a seasonal event like this. Comes to show just how busy I've been, but I've finally been able to clear the Winter 2017 Kantai Collection event on Hard difficulty.  I'll post my screencaps of it later on, but it really was a close thing, with me being able to …

Chipping Away At That Weekend Blues

It's been pretty chill for a weekend, all things considered. My father dropped by for some reason, but without my sister's kid this time around, probably due to how he'd be too much of a handful to watch over if it rained on the way. Which it did, while I was on the way back …

Just Feeling A Bit Pleased

I have to say, the recent event in Kantai Collection was a bit of a mess.  What with the bugs brought on by the new game mechanic that was introduced in the event (Land-based Aircraft), and the utterly ridiculous last dance fleet compositions (including what amounts to an all-Princess lineup), it's caused more than its …

Weekend Juggle

I was just tired enough last night that I figured, what the hey, I can live with skipping a  journal entry for an evening.  As for today, it started with laundry once again early in the morning, though this time around I also made sure to put out all the clothes to dry. I finished everything …

Not Sensing The Gravity (Of The Circumstances)

It's just a few hours away before the climax of a very contentious election season here in the Philippines, but honestly I couldn't really find myself to care. As long as I vote according to my conscience, and not just be swayed by the loud majority, I can honestly say that I exercised my right …

Those Little Formalities Out Of The Way

Kantai Collection's drop RNG seems to have given me a bit of a break this morning, as I managed to get Okinami on my third run into E-2. This, coupled with the fact that I got Umikaze yesterday after an afternoon's worth of farming, meant that for me, the Winter 2016 in-game event was officially …

Early To Rise, Early To Do A Lot Of Stuff

As per habit, I was up again at around midnight, so I could do the laundry. I finished by around three-thirty or so, let the washed clothes soak for a bit, and put the washing back in place. At that, I went back to bed, though I made sure to set my alarm for seven-thirty, …

Always Trying To Cut Down (On Screw-Ups)

Last night's shift was somewhat better, but there was that one call where I could have actually done something about that just got escalated anywhere. We might listen to it later on for coaching, but this time around rather than giving out an inaccurate response, it might be that the guy just disliked how I …

Weekend Surprises

It was a very slow shift last night, but I suppose that's what you get in the wake of thanksgiving. Not that there weren't any calls coming in, but they were comparatively minimal, which meant long long periods of just sitting around doing nothing, and everyone on the floor trying to find something to busy themselves …

And Now For Weekend Business…

Ugh, that shift... Nights like those make me wonder why I even turn up for work sometimes. So many calls, and not enough support to go around.   In any case, with APEC done, things are going to go back to normal. Of course for this cutoff, there's all those ovetime I did, so I …
