boss, don't crack under pressure :-)

Be happy! yes, i desperately need to keep the happy mood. otherwise i won't be able to let things moving at acceptable pace. there are so many things that have been postponed due to my lack of ability and capacity to focus on things. so this morning, the brain started to list down all possible scenarios/situations/things that may challenge my conscience today, and how i should tackle them. if this happens, i should think like this.. if that happens, this is how i should handle it..well, i would say it did work quite well for the first half of the day, even though i felt like my heart could explode from excessive excitement.

then came the boring, sleepy afternoon. with stomach all full, i wish i was still on my days off. I guess, being half-awake, the self-motivation started to get loose, letting those unwanted feelings to sneak in. Irritated and annoyed by somebody's behaviour, i so wish i worked from home today. oh no, this is not good. i drank plenty of water, hoping that it could flush out that feeling. mcm tak relevant eh?? i made a few trips to the ladies then to the pantry, still i couldn't release that menyampah feeling. no, please don't fail on me today. sms a friend hoping for a nice, decent reply, but no-no. my last resort, I clicked on "New Message" and poured my heart out. The recipient was no other than ely :-) Completed one paragraph, then a "HELLO" definitely made my day!! You saved me!! Thank you my partner in crime. somehow, you always got me at the right time, huh?? smart. God really wanted me to be happy today I guess :-) while we were busy discussing that very very interesting topic (and work at the same time ok), received an email from the boss:

boss:
can we have the meeting 1hr later and then 30 mins ? (he's referrring to our biweekly 1-1 session tomorrow).
ps: did you enjoy your days off?

me reply:
ok. i'll send a new invite.
i don't want to come back to work! enough said :-)

boss:
haha! same for me. and i was not even on holiday!

me reply:
i was hoping for some motivation from you! haha :-)
anyway, i'm already planning my next vacation. hope that helps to keep the spirit up for the next mths :-)

boss:
hahaha, no you are right. Let's do it again.

Well Nani, good to hear you have build up lots of enery and can work for more than 100 % the rest of the week.!! So much that you can work next week Monday as well, you don't need the public holiday anymore ;)

I enjoyed my weekend very much , but I was even happier to go into the traffic jam this morning to find out I had not a parking place this morning and had to go in the rain to the office, where I found out that the coffee machine was not yet working and had ony 160 emails waiting for me. ;)


hahahaha.. i left office smiling :-)
