Though the workload is still tons beyond humanly limits, I’m telling myself that doing 80% is good enough.
By saying this, I realize I’ve been stressing myself out by setting expectations of myself way too high… likewise, beyond humanly limits. So I had it. Today’s Friday! I can finally sit back, relax, and declare “TGIF!” after months of non-sensational Fridays.
So what’d I do? I’m spending the day in the office doing some brain-less work (notice it’s “brain” “less” as in less brain… not ‘brainless’) and at the same time hook my greatly deprived ears to the latest In Search Of Sunrise 5 by Tiesto. During lunch hour, I turned off my spreadsheet and walked out for some sun. Now at 6pm, I’m starting to close shop and go home for the day.
Sounding like “FINALLY”? Wish this kind of day will be a norm in the future

Oh, did I also mention that despite my personal goals and expectations in my career, I’m actually really sick of the corporate environment. Nothing wrong with the people. They’re just behaving like they do just for their own survival. It’s the exaggerated superficiality I can’t stand sometimes. There are reactions I’m seeing in the office that seems almost surreal. (Think Stepfort Wives…) Sometimes I feel so out of place in the company of masked individuals at the office. Sometimes I feel
(If these superficial niceness I’m seeing in the office are genuine, then I’m really worried.)
