jaded

things get a lil' bit crazy a bit at work. i guess it's the pressure of completing things before friday. i'll be taking days off next week, so suddenly i found myself with a dateline. not that my boss or anybody verbally or officially mentioned it, it's just that sometimes you'd prefer to tie loose ends before, you know, moving on...

i'm never good at datelines. i think ppl perform at their best when they are not rushed. i mean, how can you sleep at night, and wake up in the morning looking forward for the day, when you know back there in your mind, that there's even-when-the-world-shatters-to-pieces-need-to-complete assignments? it seriously affects your overall being.

and the haze outside is not helping either. gosh i think the psi index has been over 100 like forever. things got a bit better today, but still.. i long for a clear blue sky and the smell of fresh leaves in the morning. ok not that i can smell that anyway but at least it's always nice to breathe something that doesn't smell like smoke.



other than that, life has been pretty normal. i heard that there's sugeestion to hold our annual department christmas party at a pub this year. a pub! how happening is that? previous 2 years we held it at hotel's grand ballroom. not dinner and dance, but lunch and no-dance. except few that were unlucky enough to be called on stage by the mc to do silly moves. so i guess we'll wait and see this year.

we'll have another round of badminton match later today, and this time i'm not among the players. well, after being flattened 6-21 last week, i'm sure i'm not exactly the darling in the captain's eye now. although for my defense, we'd already clinched victory even before my doubles match, so there wasn't anything to lose anyway. with less motivation, we might as well gave away the match.

now if i could just give away these impending works.
