In other news: I finished playing 🎮 Yakuza: Like a Dragon last night, like at around 1:40AM with how long the end cutscene was 😂

Now it makes me want to go back to my save in Yakuza 0, and slowly go through the series. 😁

Also excited for the new game coming out in January 2024!

Broken foldie, but lucky nonetheless: my World Car-Free Day experience

I wanted to super celebrate World Car-Free Day today by doing my bike commutes to and from work, as usual. Even with the looming smog that was covering Metro Manila, which initially was suspected to be from the Taal Volcano down south but apparently is most likely from motor vehicle emissions, I wanted to still keep up the notion that biking is and should be something more people do.

Yet today will not go as planned.

📷 Day 22: road #mbsept

Selfie of me riding along the roads of MueangKaen, Chiang Mai, Thailand! 😄

Wide angle selfie of Chi riding a bike, wearing her red popcorn cycling cap, kumot crop top, and black shorts, riding along one of the roads around the MueangKaen municipality at Chiang Mai, Thailand. Behind her are some trees, and the road is narrow enough for one person on a bike to pass with ease.

📷 Day 21: (not) fall(ing) #mbsept 😆

These bikes are not falling. As they are propped up each other. 😆

Two full bikes leaning against each other, making them both be balanced and not falling over.

📷 Day 20: disruption #mbsept

Here’s a photo of my dad messing with my grandma’s cat, Oscar, who was chilling on the stairs. 😆

Oscar, a white cat, seen on top and edge of some stairs with his eyes closed. Seen to his right side is a pointed finger of Chi's dad, seemingly poking or just playing with him while Oscar chills at his spot.

my week started with a bad case of impostor syndrome, but now I am recuperating.

I still need to deal with it though. Haven’t fully addressed it yet, but I guess I’ll get there. Soon. Eventually 😅

📷 day 19: edge #mbsept

late post! meant to do this yesterday but i kinda forgot lol

Chi hanging on the edge of a red songthaew, a Thailand public vehicle. She is mimicking the feeling of also hanging on the back end part of a Philippine jeepney, where commuters sometimes do this because the inside is already full.

📷 Day 18: fabric #mbsept

I know I already posted this outfit yesterday, but the prompt calls for fabric. So here it is. 😆

Chi's full outfit. Her top is a cropped button top of what looks similar to blankets that were popularly used for bed when she was a child, with a black undergarment and a black skater skirt. She's also wearing black stockings and black boots, with her Figma two-toned orange and blue socks peeking above her boots. On her shoulder is her Figma grid tote bag.

📷 Day 17: intense #mbsept

4 different alcoholic drinks lined up, from top to bottom: a bottle of beer, a Jägerbomb, a Tequila shot, and a rum shot.

good god what is that haze outside

I feel bad I’m having to decide whether I should commit to the bit and bike commute to the design conference I’m attending later or just join my officemate’s Grab carpool later 🫠

Part of me wants to show it is doable, but I also know that it might be hard at the current state huhu sobs

📷 Day 16: oof! #mbsept

This is a ramp at the mall near my place. It has been “under maintenance” for like 2 months already, with no visible damage.

A ramp meant to make the entrance more accessible to PWDs, but is cordoned off with a sign on it that reads, "Sorry for the inconvenience / Maintenance in progress to serve you better" by SM Light Mall.

📷 Day 15: red #mbsept

My outfit yesterday while with my bike 😁 red dress, red bike, red bag 😆

Chi posing with her red folded trifold bike. She is wearing a red long dress with a white undershirt, and slung on her shoulder is her red front bike bag. She is at a shared office space, with some indoor plants seen behind her.

omg yay my prompt is next for tomorrow 😁

I have so many things happening every weekend, I wanna write about them all, but I guess I feel too conscious sometimes to just write whatever and then post it.

But… on another note, that is technically the point on why I am here in the first place 😆😅

Caught up in posting for the Micro.blog Photoblogging challenge again.

Sometimes I wonder if I missed out on a lot, but then when I check on my past posts, I usually just don’t post for a day. 😆 Time feels fleeting. hahaha

📷 Day 14: statue #mbsept

Apparently there is another Hachiko statue in Chiang Mai, Thailand, in their very own Little Tokyo area!

A statue of Hachiko, similar to the one in Tokyo, but this one in particular was taken at Chiang Mai, Thailand. Some bird poop is seen on the top of the Hachiko statue.

📷 Day 13: glowing #mbsept

My friends and I retook this photo because the light was apparently directly on top of my head 🤣

“para kang kinukuha na ng langit” 😂

Chi posing with her two friends, Karen and Nix, next to their own trifold bikes and setups. On top of Chi's head, a street light is pointed towards the camera, so the top part of her head is obscured by the light.
