On why i am seriously thinking of quitting my job

10 things I hate about work
  1. I hate the long commute (distance is roughly 50kms one way)
  2. I hate the traffic (Im always late to work!)
  3. I hate some of the people in my organization
  4. I hate the fact im not good in the technology I support
  5. I hate the fact there is so much to do, and impossible deadlines
  6. I hate fearing that one of my team members will leave earlier than me
  7. I hate not having the drive (mojo) to come to work everyday
  8. I hate the freaking un-ergonomical chair that is causing me carpal tunnel syndrome and neck/shoulder pain!
  9. I hate the lack of direction the management has over the service I support
  10. I hate the variety of tasks i need to undertake and still be expected to complete them in shortest time!

2010 Q3 Updates

Long time since i last blogged. Some updates:

1. The crush i had since last year is getting married to another. Bummer

2. A friend of mine introduced me to his friend and we started hanging out.

3. My sister got married! Was a busy period but fun nevertheless.

I had a hair malfunction (i chose the wrong style & make up). Dreading the photos :P Ah well

4. I bought my first Coach bag! Hurrah!Here's to many more to come ;)


5. My big project for this year at work finally completed and paid off.

6. To celebrate that, i decided to have a fringe again. What is it with women and changes and making statements? :)

7. I am now even more confused with what i want to do in life. The choice of career? Should i stay in SharePoint line? Should i stay in IT line or switch to another field altogether?

8. I need to start applying jobs

9. I want to take a break from work and finish up all the 'home' projects i've neglected.

That's about it all i guess.

Till the next time i'm inspired again to write, Peace Out!

London Calling

I am missing Europe badly!! I miss the trams, i miss the metro, i miss wearing the trench coats, i miss putting on the scarves, the boots... Don't miss the icy nose though :D Especially now that my sister is in Netherlands. If not for my sucky project, i would be enjoying my summer in Amsterdam, exploring the city that i only managed to quickly take in for 7 hours (during transit) 3 years back. Ah well. I still need to earn my daily bread and butter. Being ADULT (joy!). Last night, met up with another friend who just got back from EU and i must say after hearing about the incredibly cheap prices of past-season's branded apparel in Primark UK, my determination got even bigger LOL .... Oh that and the fact that i have higher chances of catching some random Bollydude walking by (in London that is). Yes, lame reason i know. LONDON !!! Here i come !!!!!!!!!
