count your blessings

today had potential to be a super crappy day. i really do believe in counting my blessings. God has been really good to me and i cannot thank Him enough for the calm after all the storms that had come my way. my friday:

CAR: it started with my missing car in the garage. when i couldn't see it, i naturally panicked but i realized it was parked where i left it last night...in the middle of a reserved police parking zone during the day. damn it, it would most likely be towed. i ran towards there with two textbooks and a fedex package in tow. thank you lord, it was still there with only a $35 ticket.

WORK: an hour ish delay for work and i got placed in the junk position as closeout. it means i am stuck there extra long due to the delay. TSA confiscated this thing called bagoong (some filipino condiment) because it wasn't packaged correctly and that took forever to resolved. sold my first airline ticket. pretty much, i was so bored for majority of the work day i wanted to cry lol.

PARKING: leaving the airport, i was so stoked to finally go home. the parking arm thing was broken for the lot i was in! unbelievable. it took about 20 minutes for a staff person from the parking office. on the flipside, it was around 630pm so therefore, i bypassed traffic!

DINNER: olive tree cafe was a fail. decided to go to CPK at kahala mall and the wait was around an hour half. holy moly, i was starving along with everyone else by then. but it was a great meal and i also bought gummy candies while waiting, yay!

ME TIME: i am home now just spending some time reflecting on my day and just unwinding. it feels great as i know i will have another hectic day tomorrow.

yesterday, my dad had to go to the ER. i am always thankful that he's been relatively healthy despite his age.
