Arrrgh! I could use some coffee!

It's raining when I woke up and I have to drag myself to the bathroom to get ready for work. We've been staying up late since last week to finish our project. Here's an excerpt of our boss' email yesterday.



Subject: RE: Audited FS


Team Finance,

We still need your all out support to finish this by next week. No let up. No excuse.

I will get involve in the discussion if there will be any peer’s show stopper that will prevent your group from accomplishing your task collectively.

You have proven in the 2008 FS that you can do it. Why not do it again for the second time?

Sweeter the second time around.

Thanks


Team,

Let's finish this audit one and for all so we can all take a rest and relax. Thanks for your support and cooperation.




-Alex

And to think it's Saturday.

Coffee, anyone?

Make mine black, cream, no sugar.

Letters of Intent 06.25.2010


Dear Facebook Poser,

You who created an account with my name and wrote a defamatory profile of me, I pity you.
Of course, you won't admit it. BUT.I.KNOW.WHO.YOU.ARE.
Everyone must move on, so why don't you?

Good luck,
Annoyed



Dear Teddy,

How I wish you would pick up your socks --
and help with the laundry --
and not be so taciturn most of the time --

I'm glad though, that you appreciate my cooking --
that we can still find the time to talk in the mornings, despite our busy schedules --
that after the "chaos" last Decemebr, we are slowly settling in...

And I love you for all these things.

I hope you know.

Hugs,
Wee



Dear Mr. Time,

Please be so kind to my parents, now that they are old. Give them more of you.



Praying,
Daughter

Six Word Saturday -- Take one step at a time.


Take one step at a time.
 ~~~

This is something that I have yet to learn. To relax. To let it be. My mantra nowadays: everything happens at its own time and pace. But sometimes, it's oh so frustrating to wait!  Some people say impatience is only for the young. Do you think so? Isn't it more exciting to just jump headlong?

Moving (out)

My flatmate A and I had a sort of "fall out" so decided to move out of the 2-bedroom apartment we've been sharing for a year.




The problem?




Her boyfriend. The "very much married to someone else" boyfriend, who is so controlling of her, that she has to chose who comes over to the house and watch what she does with her time,etc..! She, a 27-year old with complete faculties, has to keep her eye on her bf's financial carrot-and-sticks. And sometimes I hate her for it. There must be other options, I'm sure. I don't want to impose on her my views on the matter because I have my own imperfections, too (who doesn't?), but I feel that I can't just watch and be silent any longer. I've asked her a hundred times why is she staying in a relationship like that. A relationship based on control and mistrust but she just answered that one gets used to it with time.




One might think, "So what if he was a Mr. Right that became Mr. Always Right? He's not your issue!".




But he is. He is. Because he is putting constraints on me, too. He gets angry if MY bf visits, or if I stay out late, or if I'm at the house and he wants to get lovey-dovey with her. Hello! This is an apartment, get into a motel! He doesn't confront me, but pressures Ann by being verbally vicious to her.




So I moved out before a friendship is lost.

Six Word Sat ~ Patrick the Starfish' wisdom







My suitcase is full of rocks...

...and some people around me is speculating why. They never asked me, so I never explained either. The answer is so simple. I like it. I can carry it. And I have a reason for having it.When Squidward of Spongebob Squarepants asked Patrick the Starfish why his suitcase is full of rocks, Patrick retorted that he doesn't tell how Squidward should live his life! And he is so right!

Happy weekend everyone!

Am I your Rebound Girl?

I sure hope not.Though sometimes it crosses my mind that I might be... 


See? Even now, my initial reaction is turn myself blind over the fact that you might be in rebound. But I know myself, I'm a very logical person.  I want to see things objectively, with reason, as I do not want to fall "madly", "blindly" in love with you or with anybody else. So I want to clinically pick the details of our circumstance.

So, are you?

I've been through this before, as the rebounder.I even posted about it in  The Art of Breaking Up .Rebounding is the worst one can do after a really bad break up, and I promised myself that I will not take that road again. Both can be lulled by the thrill, or rush of intense emotions, mistaking it for love or happily ever after. But it's not, really.

Let's take it slow, okay? I know you're still feeling a bit confused, and I promise I will be with you. But here are my grounds:
  1. Do not take me granted. I will not allow it. Do not expect that I will take up where your ex left off.
  2. Do not compare me. Whether good or bad, do not look for them in me. I'm a different person.
  3. I'm always up for a good talk. Tell me what's on your mind. Compatibility is boring, a bit of disparity is always good.
  4. Do not rush. Let's take our time knowing each other.

    Don't be afraid. Sometimes something  good can come out of the bad. We have something good here, we just need straighten  out some emotional entanglements, clean the road we will walk on, so to speak...

    Six Word Saturday ~ Life


    Life really goes on. And on.


    It never stops really, even if there will be moments that we wish it to stop for a while, just to catch our breath and catch up.

    Happy Weekend, everyone!
