Jitters and stuff

I am going to my first blind date this Saturday. I'm a bundle of nerves. I don't really know how to act or what to wear but hopefully this works out really well. This morning, I also received an email asking me if I wanted to explore a job opportunity in another company with a higher position. I don't know if I'm 1. Ready 2. capable Talk about a life changing week.

****ty week

Of what seems like the worst work week. Rushed requirements, wrong data, irresponsible planners, missed spots and going away. It seems a lot for just one week. One week deadlines crunched into two days Planners who take their sweet time even if they know the deadliest deadline for presentation to client Forgetful planners who forget to transfer things that should be transferred New people to train Irresponsible AE's who report things weeks after the fact TOO MANY THINGS TO FOCUS ON, TOO LITTLE TIME NEEDING A DOUBLE Clients pushing, suppliers pulling. All in a week's work but... everything will end after "work" hours. :) I'm excited to watch a movie tonight, Channing, wait for me :)

It prompted error reading file and it needs to be reformatted. I was seething with anger. First because I should've copied all my pictures first before lending it to him. Now all my memories of my first trip to Boracay is history. I suddenly remembered that I was able to post some photos on Facebook but it was only 10 pictures when I clearly remember that I took hundreds of pictures. I was so bothered, I couldn't work. Finally...

Why do people read novels?

It's been a long time since I last picked up a book. The last book I read was a couple of months ago. The Perks of Being a Wallflower. Truth be told, I have forgotten what it's like to read a book, to get that exciting rush of emotions intertwined with my everyday routine. I am quite emotional, I cry at moving commercials and touching scenes- and no matter how many times I've seen it, it always makes me cry. I like books that excite me whether its an action packed, suspense or romance novel. I'm all for it. I normally judge a book from the short plot in the back. If I like it, I buy it. Reading gives me a quick escape - a fantasy propelled by imagination of how an exciting life can be. I secretly want to be the protagonist, leading the life of adventure/action/romance seeing the world in a different lens, jumping from one to the next.  Reading can take me to different places I've only dreamed about. Reading brings to life imagination. I am happy that I...
