Shake Shack Sh-again?

I woke up today will a full night's rest, surprisingly. Granted, I got 7 hours of sleep in and instead of the recommended 8.

Since my morning was met with a good start, I made breakfast early in the morning. I got to work reheating my leftover food from last night on a pan, then cooked 3 strips of bacon after it. It proved to be a good enough breakfast and a heavy one, too, even though it was just leftover chao fan, steamed siomai, and bacon. After eating, I got started on work and, like my breakfast, there was a lot on my plate. I had a few things to take care of by the morning and I was keeping in mind the time limit since I had to go out for an in-person corporate meeting in Makati.

I gave my all in accomplishing my work tasks in the morning, and all of them were up-to-par when checked by my teammates. I'm glad I didn't get asked for any follow-ups or redos because I didn't want to be bothered for later. When it was time for me to go out, I got my black polo shirt, black jeans, headed to Makati in the sweltering summer sun. The ride to there was pretty quick, surprisingly. I left at around 1:30 p.m., and arrived around 1:55 or early 2 p.m., which was probably the quickest trip I've had to Makati in recent memory.

Since I had some spare time on my hands (the meeting was about to start at 3 p.m.) and it was technically my lunchtime, I decided to eat at a nearby restaurant. This was honestly the fanciest, most expensive fast food joint I've ever eaten in. And a good burger with nuggets costed me around 900 Pesos. Thankfully, I've only been here a few times so Shake Shack is an """""okay""""" guilty pleasure every now and then. Fast-forward to meeting my team in the building and the meeting starting then ending. It was okay, I believe I participated well and it was nice to have brought up some DevOps work I did the past day used as some sort of proof. I think I like the tasks that I'm handling now. When all was said and done, our team went to Tim Hortons after the meeting to talk about work and various going-ons at the company. It was more of a fun, laid-back meeting and I got a free large caramel macchiato and maple doughnut. Getting the coffee, though, was a big mistake as it warped my sleep schedule. It was the strongest, most bitter-tasting coffee I've had in a while.

After my team's post-meeting meeting ended, I was just alone in Makati trying to get a ride home. I contemplated on playing Wangan Midnight, but since my friends were chatting me to play Left 4 Dead 2 with them, I wanted to get home early. It was weird, though, I was thinking of them and how I should position myself in this weird situationship with her. I'm still leaning on the side of letting go, while deeply feeling hurt over the past things. It was weird, having those thoughts in the background. But I eventually got a ride home after an hour and a half (or so) of waiting. I got home and played L4D2 with my friends and we ended the day on the last stage of this map we're trying to finish.

Since I was yawning earlier, I thought I would feel sleepy. But that coffee was something in that it kept me buzzed for a really long time. It even rolled over until the next day. But for the rest of the evening, I don't recall doing anything else noteworthy.
