death in tiny, tiny increments.
I "blogged" about work yesterday, but the full details weren't discussed, and may never be because a) I'm too tired to think about it and b) office people are creeping into the blogosphere and its best to keep one's mouth shut in these cases. I will instead provide you, ladies and gentlemen, with an analogy. Going to work this past week reminded me of the time, oh so long ago, when I was learning how to drive. On my first day, my instructor sat in the passenger seat, waited for me to buckle my seatbelt and said "OK, now drive." I looked at him like he was insane, because I'd never driven before, and he was telling me to get out on the highway.
That's how I felt these past few days. A barrage of neverending work without even any time to actually learn about what it is I was supposed to be doing. Terminologies are being thrown at me that I have yet to grasp, and the mere fact that I now work in makati instead of qc is starting to take its toll on my health. Still, I know that this'll pass, and I know that I'll get the hang of this new job eventually. I mean, I've been driving for what, 7 years now? Sure I've had a few accidents along the way, but I'm still alive right?

I came in to work early yesterday to find elmer submitting his entry to the 2006 IMGAwards. I felt a little jealous, and since I had a design document laying around from before, I modified it to fit the mobile perspective and as soon as I left the office started working on screenshots as supplementary material. Thank god we're ahead a few hours from europe, because it bought me enough time to finish by around 11 PM and submit everything. I'm a little worried now because I haven't recieved a confirmation message from them, but maybe that's because they remember last year when we were finalists for the game "Breakfast Club" but we had to bow out because our companny folded.
I'm tired, I'm cranky, and I feel like maybe I wasted a few hours of my life because I sent my entry to late, so here's the screens for you guys to check out. Mind you, these were rushed, so don't expect much.
