W for Weekend!

I am bushed. Phwoosh.... like a pricked balloon. All I need is a damn good break today, away from work, the documents, the reports, the figures... The eyes are fried after consecutive days of squinting at the computer, toggling between the multiple screens and trying to meet all the different requests at the same time. All I want to do today is to nuah in front of the tv and watch tear-jerking Korean dramas.

I've worked too hard.

But the psycho thing is, I think I rather enjoy working hard. Most of the time, that is, I like that adrenaline rush as I bustle between the various projects, the test of turning out good (or great) pieces of work while keeping to mandated deadlines, the challenge of convincing my bosses of certain decisions to take, and of course the speed at which time passes when I'm busying. I guess I am quite a workaholic. Just that I occasionally also like to whine.

A results were released yesterday. Can't believe it's already been one year since that somewhat traumatic episode of deciding whether to return to Institution. I wonder how it performed this time round. Sent a message to a pal who's still there, but no reply yet... Wonder if everyone's busy celebrating or quietly hiding in some igloo.

Then again... Life moves on.
