NOW

The /NOW Page Movement Derek Sivers started way back 2015, and here I am joining 6 years after.

Basically, I will put updates from what had happened the previous month and recent days leading to this post. Okay, here goes nothing…

Life, In General

6 months into 2021, and it still feels like the tail end of 2020… where life is somewhat moving forward despite in the midst of the pandemic. Trying to book a schedule for vaccination, hope to secure a slot as early as possible.

Got a new small desk and proper work chair, where I now spend 90% of my time in. Planning to add more peripherals to really make this my work and leisure space.

Learning Something New

  • Lumion: work-related, since it is the available rendering software at work.
  • V-Ray (re-learning): backup software to use, if I need to.
  • Cargo/Logistics Operation: work-related.

Yep, no change there.

Watching What Now?

  • Community: now on the 3rd season! Only had time to watch every lunch break, so it takes me a while to finish a season.
  • Loki: so far, so good!
  • Rurouni Kenshin: Thank god they it has an English dubbed version, and they sounded like the anime. Just waiting for the final aka The Beginning movie to be released by end of July.
  • Conan on YouTube: re-watching some of my fave clips from time to time. I love how the other late night show hosts gave respect to Conan on its last day of airing.
  • #SKYFAM Vlogs on YouTube: started watching Slater Young’s vlogs (because of design and construction-related topics) and now I find myself watching Kriz Uy’s vlogs as well. Don’t judge me.
  • Construction-Related Videos on YouTube: why not? I am an architect after all.
  • Last Week Tonight with John Oliver on YouTube: a staple on my weekly YT binge-watch list.

CELEBRATE SMALL VICTORIES

A Joyful Surprise at Japan’s Oldest Zoo: The Birth of Twin Pandas

Spotify: The “NEW” Radio

  • Conan O’Brien Needs A Friend: Hope I can be friends with Conan and hang out with him in his podcast.
  • ArkiTalks: the show where fellow architects and colleagues not only talk about the obvious (architecture) but most of the time, talks about anything non-architecture related topics.
  • OnlyFun with Chico and Gino: finally they have a podcast! Reminiscing the Kikay Barkada era of TMR.
  • The Morning Rush: going back to old episodes of TMR that I missed throughout the years.

So, You Got Game?

I purchased the Splinter Cell: Collection and acquired free games weekly from Epic Games, but haven’t really spent much time doing anything with it. Maybe when I finished setting up my desk…

Last Update: 01 July 2021.

Thank you for the inspiration, Derek.
