Reasons for my daily headaches

1) Addicted to Panadol (need 2 tabs every morning to stave off the throbbing)

2) Insufficient sleep (average about 5 hours every night, except the weekend)

3) Late caffeine drip (a plastic bag every morning to last the whole day)

4) High Blood Pressure (at the rate my work is piling up, no wonder)

5) Work monitor is too close (no space, no space, no space)

6) Glasses need a change (astigmatism ... arghhh ... )

So there you have it. If you think I should add on to my list of reasons, please drop your comments ! :-)

Me, mine and I

What can you say about people that had not been said before ? People are generous and on the flip side, people are selfish. People can be kind and unkind. They can be oh so thoughtful and yet there are more thoughtless beings walk around. In a daze.

I feel kind of privileged to be able to know and meet all sorts of people. The nice ones, the not so helpful ones, the good, the bad and the ugly.

Generous = Cheeky Monkey - for re-contracting his mobile plan so I can get a new phone.

Selfish = Me - for wanting to get a new phone even though my current mobile is still usable.

Kind = Elin for showing her care and concern to her colleague who's being "ill-treated" by the higher-ups

Unkind = The higher-ups who are taking advantage of a foreigner by making unreasonable demands and expecting miracles.

Thoughtful = The coffeeshop uncle who knows my coffee order and had never failed to make me an excellent plastic bag of coffee to keep me awake every morning

Thoughtless = The idiots to whom Cheeky Monkey are sharing his living space with

Just a bit of write up to end the lunch hour. Cheers !

Another work week

Another day in the sun.

Thank you for keeping me alive. Thank you for allowing me to enjoy another day in the sun. Thank you for the smile on his face this morning. Thank you for the wonderful lunch and excellent coffee. Thank you for the wonderful times amidst the not-so nice people.

Thank you for giving me another day.

Cheers ! :-D

Saturday 'Noon

Work is work is work.

Such is the name of the game.

Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday.

Weary, tired, exhausted; physically, mentally and emotionally.

So we screamed, "Stop, stop. Enough. We just want our work done. Leave us be. Do your tasks. Don't lord over us. We are not your minions nor are you our Master. Get out of our faces. We don't want you near. We sure as hell don't need you."

But our cries went unheeded. Silent in the face of the overwhelming power struggle in them. They don't care about us. They don't care about anything. The resulting force of their greed and envy blinds them to the willpower of us.

So we say,
"In brightest day, in blackest night,
No evil shall escape my sight
Let those who worship evil's might,
Beware my power... Green Lantern's light!"
