Right now, I’ve just moved into a condo with some officemates.
After 2 years, I finally got tired of the ~2 hour commute to the office!
We’re renting a unit that’s in the upper part of the building, and the view is okay… unfortunately, the windows are rather large and we don’t have curtains yet, so it feels like we’re putting on a show whenever we’re there. As a stop-gap measure, we stuck some posters onto the windows. Sorry guys, show’s over.
Since when did I become a body double for the Princess in The Princess and the Pea?
My skin has gotten so… sensitive. I think I’m allergic to heat. I have these awful patches on my skin that indicate that I have (and I’m quoting my doctor here) ‘the worst possible kind of allergy’ that anyone can get.
I did some research on it on the ‘Net, and they say that it can be caused by heat and dry skin… Lord, may I never forget to put on moisturizer from now on…
Have I ever mentioned that I absolutely hate it when it rains?
It’s raining right now, and I always feel antsy when it rains.
When it rains:
I feel depressed and listen to even more depressing music… bleh!
I feel the need to shop… and often buy something that I didn’t want in the first place.
I get neurotic.
I hate it when it rains.
I hate it when I get wet when I don’t want to.
I hate it when I wear open-toed sandals and my feet get all mucked-up.
I hate it when I don’t have an umbrella.
I hate it when I do have an umbrella and I’ve got my hands full with God-knows-what.
Bleh!
Last Saturday… I lost something that I can never get back or replace.
Actually, it was taken from me.
I had an appendectomy. =P
Ouch!
Now I’m incarcerated at home, and I can’t go back to work for at least two weeks. That means no pay for practically the whole of December!
I’m also rather dependent on other people right now. I love them, but let’s face it, I truly value my independence. Being at the hospital for 4 days and being under anesthesia for several hours really made me feel helpless, and I really hated that.
I guess I should just be thankful that I’m alive — my appendix was ruptured, and if I hadn’t gone to the hospital right away… well, let’s leave it at that. I should also be thankful for health insurance — my hospital bill was HUGE. I also feel blessed because of my co-workers — my immediate superior was my first visitor, and my group went to the hospital to cheer me up, which they did. =)
Right now, my dearest wish is to become a bum… with nothing to do except read, eat, sleep, and watch TV.
Being in an ‘exciting’ project is so stressful… Whenever I manage to make it home by 10 PM, I feel like it’s a miracle. =)
I hate doing overtime… and you know that you’ve been working too long and much too hard when you think that going home before the sun goes down is a minor miracle.
I am so… tired! And to think that I used to complain about going to school! =P
Eastwood is just so far away, and when I have to work for very long hours, it seems as if I barely have time to eat and sleep when I go home before I need to get up again so I can go to work.
Ugh!
I just got contact lenses today… and now I remember why I didn’t want them in the first place… handling my eyeballs freaks me out! =P
I’m somewhat scared that I’ll accidentally poke my eyes out or something. =)
Anyway, the only reason that I got them is because my eyeglasses won’t be ready ’til Tuesday, and I have to go to work on Monday. I don’t want to get lost (again)on the way to work just because I couldn’t read signs or see where I’m going. Plus, I was totally taken in by their discounted price. =P So sue me for being part Ilokana! =D
I only hope I don’t do something stupid to them — like accidentally dissolve them or something.
Not!
Jeeze… today, I went to the office wearing a twin set (that’s a sleeveless blouse and jacket combo for all the non-fashionistas out there), and I went home wearing only the blouse.
I was reading on the bus, and I totally forgot that I took the jacket off! Argh! How totally frustrating! If I was only double-jointed, I’d kick myself in the head.
Neil Gaiman is coming to the Philippines for my birthday, and I can’t even come to see him on Saturday! All of my friends seem to be busy with one thing or another… <waaaahhhh!>
Boy, talk about self-centered. =D
I guess I should just be thankful that our company encourages its employees to have lives outside of work… =)
But I still want to see Neil! =)
I want a new celphone! =)
My celphone is approximately 5 years old… it’s older than some of my nephews… it’s high time that I sent it out to pasture.
Now all I have to think about is what model to get and how much I’m willing to spend…
