GSS nightmare... GSS Fatigue... whatever you may call it...

The last few weeks have been a nightmare, especially the last 2 weeks.

I have been going around telling my closer peers that I'll never ever view GSS in the same light again. It's a very very tedious process, not only for myself, but my colleagues and team members as well. Yet however, day by day, we go through the processes and clear one thing at a time albeit pushing back deadlines again and again and just having to manage it as best as we can.

Opened up facebook today and my astrology read -

"Capricorn Zen, This is a time of testing your limits to see how far you can go. Things you put into motion last week will come to fruition today. It may not be the result you expected, but you should find it acceptable. Learn from the past instead of longing for it."


It's funny how they say that Horoscopes are phrased in as broad a sense as it can be, but more than once, things always hit a nail with me. As we sent my mailer FA for production, a sense of relief overcame even though it wasn't the most perfect - Yes, we still spotted mistakes but it was just too late to amend due to production dead dead dead deadline... PLUS the mistakes are pretty minor... on top of that, I cleared two press Ads for print too.... that's like ONE FIFTH of the job done... *faintz*

As much as I had pressured and pushed my agency to complete my jobs and give in to our whims and demands (which on our end are often driven by tenants), I feel really bad deep down inside because I know how and what it feels like to be on the other end... And this is how the tides change for me... lol...

I can't wait for this to be OVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I need a break!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

State of my life...

It's often said that the state of my Blog reflects the state of my life in an adverse manner... And the silence in this little tucked away corner of cyber space says it all...

Since the LNY, I've been rather busy coping with the changes in my career and managing the pace of it picking up... There are good times, and there are bad... There are times when I feel like everything is spiraling out of my control and I would often visualize in my mind's eye how to reach out and make sure that everything stays within my living sphere...

Played a part in Daph's wedding over the weekend. I guess I really let my hair down and had crazy fun in silly little senseless ways... It felt like I was 18 again... going nuts with Raymond's camera, posing as if I'm a pro... It helps that the company was good fun... people like lian, angie, the guys... 2 whole days of partying it felt...

I can't wait to see the pixs! Will upload it when I get them! =)
