Date with Jack

^_________^ and in case you need a translation, that's a very, very wide grin. I just can't seem to stop grinning whenever I think of Jack ^________^ He's a funny and lovable character, and yet kinda tragic too at the same time.

So anyway, I was set to go to the office after running this brief errand -- hah! I was getting the laundry from this very far laundry shop, which reminds me, I have to look for one that's way nearer -- but after figuring that I'll be late anyway and the laundry wasn't done, I decided to skip work and just meet up with Jack. Real conscientious of me, aye?

Yeah, that's him running towards me *cheeky grin*



We had a grand old time, did I mention that?

We went to see a movie, twice, and had a bite to eat before going home. I would have loved to have him come home with me, but he said he had this thing he had to do, save his soul or some such thing. Being the nice person that I am, I let him do what he had to do. After all, what's a man without his soul anyway? We did make plans to meet up again next year when he comes this way as he is most certainly going to do. If he doesn't there'll be hell to pay, that I can tell you without reservation.

in the office

Oh yeah, what time is it? It's 12:23 a.m. 23 July 2006 Sunday, and it's officially my day off ^__^ Guess where I am?

*sigh*

In the office. Isn't it great?

*sigh*

Just think OT. Just think OT. Just think OT. Just think OT. Just think OT.

That's what I tell myself, but really, it is really is okay for me to stay this late since... well, I haven't got anything else to do. I mean, I could go out and do stuff outside, but really, it's BORING when you're alone. I am so not taking my sister out on gimiks. That would just be so... eurgh. No thank you, you can have her.

For crying out loud, I live with her already, in one room. Can't I have my two days away from the office away from her as well? I need my space. I need to breathe air that she's not breathing. I want to be with other people.

Oh sure, you can argue that the people in the office are the other people I'm surrounded with at other times, but all we do, especially these days, is work and work and work and work.

Oh gods, I can't believe I opened and am updating my blog here in the office...! Ah well, I don't think he's going to bother himself with looking through my internet history or anything. He hasn't even bothered with me the past week.

Hmph.

Oh yeah, almost all my colleagues know about him *sigh* I can't really plead not my fault, since my face gave me away when they were teasing me. Gods, isn't there something that could be taken to take away the blush complex? Really need one especially when they really get into teasing me, when he's still in the office. Heck, maybe that's why he's not talking to me anymore the past week. Maybe he got awkward or something.

Ah well, let him be. If he doesn't pay attention to me, I can sure as hell not pay (overt) attention to him, aye?

-o-o-o-

It is now 2:21 a.m. and while I really should maybe sleep, I'm not really that sleepy, so why not blog, right? The last entry here was from May, if I'm not mistaken, so why don't we go back to June and go through some of what happened then, aye?

First off, the diva or divo of the office of our team, got let go *waves bye bye* And that was after he told me he was making me a junior editor. The position stuck, and the junior has been deleted by now, but he didn't so there. Happy days, mate!

So yeah, the second big thing that happened to me then would be my being upgraded to editor. I still transcribe, once in a while when the MTs are swamped, but mostly, I spend the work hours editing and editing and editing some more. It's a heck of a deal, you know, since I don't have to bust my hands typing away all the time. All I really have to do is listen and listen well to the audio files coz they miss words and worse case, sentences. But it's cool ^__^

I'll be back to transcribing next month anyway, since I'll be handling the other account again. It's just a couple of days a week and the files are really few those days anyway, so I have free time, which I can spend either sleeping or surfing or daydreaming or writing. I don't actually know if I could write here. I mean, it's not really an ideal place to weave stories in. We have cubicles but it's not that private especially arranged the way we are. Ah well, we'll see.

The bad thing though about being assigned to those days is that I won't see him as much since those days are his days off ^__^;;

Ack, stay away from that topic for a bit.

So what else happened to me in June?

Nothing really much other than what I've already put in above. I'm getting sleepy anyway, so I think I'll just hunker down on my table (good thing I still have a pillow here eh?) and sleep for a few hours until it's light and I could go where hopefully, I could get another few hours sleep before being bothered to get up and do something.

Ciao!
