I'm so exhausted from work the last few days and last few weeks, because of Year End Closing and the New Fiscal Year starting... things have been crazy and hectic and rushed at work. I always seemed to be rushing... rushing my work to meet deadlines, rushing to go to meetings, rushing my lunch so that i can get back to work quickly, rushing submission of stuff, rushing to the train platform coz the train is coming in 1 min and i wanna go home asap, rushing home to eat dinner coz it's already 9pm...

i know my work in comparison to many others is a breeze, and seriously when i see how torturous work is for my accountancy friends, i know i should shut up, but still, i hate this kinda life.

when it boils down to job scope, i really love what i'm doing. I really love it. I love churning out financials for marketing plan, i love being able to make decisions on my own even when it involves millions and millions of dollars, and i love seeing the results of my work.

but then again working life is not as simple as only your jobscope or what you do... there's always colleagues you have to handle, there's your boss, there's politics, there's deadlines which make u so stressed up and frustrated, and there's competition.

i once told myself "welcome to the corporate world, you want good pay? this is the place you have to stay".

but then at the same time, there's this nagging feeling at the back of my mind, telling me this is not the place for me... i'm in such a dilemna =( and it has only been a year or so...
and the worst is, i actually love what i'm doing... i just dont like the environment and the corporate world, as u call it... i'm telling myself, 2 years. 2 years is the limit before i really sit down and decide wat i wanna do next... or if there's a "next" to talk abt..

anyway back to today. i woke up with a headache and feeling totally exhausted fr all the work, so i took leave =)

Les came over with pasta ingredients and a sunflower for me =)
so we spent the entire day cooking the Italian pasta i bought fr Rome, chatting, playing Wii =)
and it ended up with a movie at Lot 1 (Transformers YAY!!!!!) and dinner at home with my family, and more Wii...

he cracks me up... seriously... esp when he plays Wii haha... not only me, my mom and sis couldnt stop laughing haha...

i think aft i started work, i'm more aware of what's really important to me in life... there's only a few things which will stay constant no matter how much obstacles i'm facing, no matter what shit life throws my way, and that's friends, family and Lester.

when you've to go through ups and downs in life, you'll realise how impt these things are...
