i was lucky enough to get a 5-day weekend last week.  third day for columbus day, fourth day since they needed to de-install a 9/11 exhibit on the same floor as our office & it would have been just us & the guys in the haz-mat suits, & fifth day, cause evidently, they needed another day to clean up.  so yeah.  i had a really good weekend. :)

this week has felt like a nothing week.  seeing as we had independence day, naturally we had that day off & very nicely, my boss decided to also close the office on tuesday as well.  i had also taken monday off, so basically only went to work for 1 3/4 days - yesterday & today as we are on summer hours & can leave work 2 hours earlier on fridays.  ( Read more... )

so today my supervisor is out sick, which means that as of now, i've got nothing to do.  most people wouldn't have a problem with this, i suppose, but i could never really spend that much time surfing the net, never mind all day.  thankfully one of my other co-workers just came in, so i shall be able to keep myself busy until she can help me out.

just as a quick note: today, or rather, yesterday, marks my first week at the new job.  cause for mini-celebrationness in the fact that i have survived & am still enjoying myself & the stuff i'm doing thus far.  will update when i have a bit more time.  commuting to the city is rather hard work & eats up more of my day than i'd like ( Read more... )

i'm going to take a break from writing about the usual wuxia that i love so much - which is, probably for most of you, a nice relief ( Read more... )

it's amazing how your moods can change.  i don't really view myself as a moody person, though i do have my moments.  in these past few months, i've discovered that i'm a bit of a brooder, especially when i don't have any deadlines & such to keep my mind busy.

so earlier this evening, i was fine with life.  not thrilled, given my current situation ( Read more... )

despite the rather spring-like weather we've been having for the past week or so, old man winter decided he wasn't through & slammed us with a rather severe storm, carrying over a foot of snow (at least for me).  this has been the most snow that we've had all season & it's still going.  i think it started really really early this morning & it's not ( Read more... )

for the first time in my life, i don't have a winter vacation.  it's a bit strange, especially since everyone else in my family, aside from my father, has off.  my brother doesn't exactly count as having to go to work since he physically is not going to work this week.  he gets to work at home in his pyjamas. :P ( Read more... )

i find it very hard to imagine that christmas is only about 2 weeks away.  this year seemed to go by very fast.  i haven't even really done any christmas shopping yet.  though, i have to admit that i basically have everything planned out.  still, sometimes it's the actually physical part of getting up & going that is the hardest.  it seems like i ( Read more... )
