Caffeine Withdrawal

Published on HivePostify by @unnamed0n3 · Wed Sep 18 2024

I was surprised to have awakened to a downpour, believing that the tropical storm would have passed by early morning. It turned out another one came in right after Gener , the previous one, moved out. Fortunately, it seems tropical storm Helen didn't enjoy her stay in the Philippines and was [on her way out at 5 PM](https://www.pagasa.dost.gov.ph/tropical-cyclone/severe-weather-bulletin) (GMT+8) today. I hope my fellow Filipinos are safe and dry.

Overall, the day was great, considering having an excuse for being late for work – the rain. And, despite being late, all is well.

Hooray! We’re halfway through the workweek again. Friday is just a day away. If no one else has told you so, let me be the one to say – "Keep it up! You’re doing great!"

Although this is slowly becoming a regular part of my blog – it wasn’t my intention at all, but rather an excuse for being " at a loss for words. " Here’s a villanelle to sum up how my week has gone so far:

Woke up, then crashed for three days in a row, It had to be done for my well-being, There goes my energy, out the window.

Of all the things, I ask, why must this be? Once energizing, but now it’s draining: Woke up, then crashed for three days in a row.

Went to bed hoping that the rain would stop. Comes tomorrow, still welcomed by pouring; There goes my energy, out the window.

Oh, the pouring rain hums a lullaby In a moment, I found myself sleeping, Woke up, then crashed for three days in a row.

Again, the day began and it went slow, Time kept passing by, both slow and fleeting; There goes my energy, out the window.

Feeling powerless, going with the flow, Knowing this is all for my wellbeing Woke up, then crashed for three days in a row, There goes my energy, out the window.

Again, this is how my week has gone so far, and I do hope everyone’s having a fantastic week. Feel free to share how yours has been going in the comments section – let's savor the moment and celebrate our small wins together.
