Been a while, again ( Read more... )

Apparently I'm only suppose to use 1 drop per 20ml, so I've been overdosing myself with Betadine. Twenty times the recommended amount ( Read more... )

Got a scratchy feeling at the back of my throat, like something's come on. Probably from the weekend when I was dehydrated and munching on ... chocolate. Yup, I've developed a chocolate thing since coming to Australia. May the ex-art-director-turned-mum think it's because of my lack of gym and routine and lousy diet. I don't disagree ( Read more... )

I'm reading Coupland's The Gum Thief written in a journal/letter format which I hate. Tonight I caught myself wondering, how is it that these fictitious characters have such vibrant or dynamic monologues, and what kinda schizo Coupland must be to come up with all these voices and letters in his head. And mostly, I wondered why I don't sound fun and ( Read more... )

This is my third week of work, still unconfirmed, but they extended me another week. Why? Who knows. There's work, and there're some good feedback, so we continue.

As they say, it's a foot in, but where the foot leads remains to be seen ( Read more... )

Back from Sydney and back to Sydney tomorrow for a 2-week stint. Seems like the interview went well enough and while they're feeling positive about me and the way I think, they want to see me actually at work before committing. So I have the next 2 weeks to prove / slut myself and seal the deal ( Read more... )

I got my interview, finally. Booked my flight and accommodation for Sydney, Tuesday to Friday ( Read more... )

What am I doing, and more precisely, what am I doing with my life? These variants of the same question surface in my mind every few hours in the day, every day. And I'm not having a quarter life crisis, would that I have that luxury now. I'm not lost, I have (had) a plan, I have a goal for the next 5 years; I also have a plan for next year, and the ( Read more... )
