I am currently in the process of convincing myself that I can stay until August before I say bye bye bye to the place which must not be named.
I don’t know if I can convince myself much longer.
Must. Stay. Strong.
Anyway, part of how to convince myself is to entertain myself.
Part of entertaining is to blog about lists.
So here are the lists of things that make me grateful that I am working.
Yes, I need to stay positive.
1. Books every payday.
I love books. Even my pets (RIP to all of them) know how much I go crazy over books. I remember the last word that came out from the mouth of my ex from highschool before breaking up with me is books – not that he reads them but because when he asked me to choose between him and another suitor, I chose my books. And yes, it was such a great decision that after graduating from college, i found out that they end up being lovers.
Its a common knowledge that girls who are a bit depressed either go gaga by changing their hairstyles or by shopping. Im one pf those people who find retail shopping to be the answer for my stress. And yes, I shop for books.
2. Getting called a makati girl
Have you ever watched the movie of Working Girls? (Filipino film starring Gina Pareno). I love that movie, and Gina Pareno is hilarious and eventhough she’s not the best apple in the bunch, (so to speak), I just find it mildly entertaining to be called Makati Girl just so i can remimisce how fun it is to work at makati, not that I am happy working.
3. Airconditioned rooms
I have a huge back problems that is actually caused by my scoliosis. The pain sometimes leaves me crippled and reduced to tears. It is actually triggered by cold temperature, specificially by aircondition. Sure like a lot of fun to stay in a place where my back literally leaves me insane for hurting too much. Well, at least i never get to feel the summer heat.
4. Malls are the creation of the DEVIL!!!
I love going to malls. I find it relaxing to walk…er.. since my schedule renders me from walking being in the mall during weekdays, i guess i have to admit that malls are in fact are a haven for sins. And yes, I am such a fuck-up for convincing myself that i am such a good liar.
5. no social life. Wow. Weee. Yahooo!!
Who needs friends when you can be a corporate slave from 3 pm to 12 am everyday right?
I mean, who need social life when you can talk to strangers from outside the Philippines just to ask their personal information? You get to practice your phony English accent that can never fool anyone. I mean, seriously? What can be cooler than that right? <i guess biting and eating one’s fingernails is much much much interesting than anything I said.>
So yeah. I have such a happy working life.
And so do I…
