still having quite some
hectic workloads in front of me
yet insisting to finish this post
before the clock hits 12
September has been
neither hitting a new high like Aug
nor trapped in gap days like July
in other words
it has been smooth sailing
despite a minor incident which
landed me quite frustrated
Sickly X Raining: Frustrating!
towards the end of the month
not doing too bad but
things were pretty slow
that is quite an alarm for me
if everything is pretty slow
all the way…
October is going to be tough as
I am officially taking
2nd half of the month off for
“work and travel”
I spent my time
blogging and doing travel research
at “office hours”
until yesterday afternoon
got two projects of moderate volume
and one of minor volume
juggling among 3
I stayed up until 2am
and today
after submitting the minor project
settled to work on the other 2
deadlines are respectively in
1 and 2 days time
manageable.. I guess
got another minor project
and another two massive one
and then another minor one
coming in around 7 something
great..
that would be 1, 2, 3…
I better create a chart then
that’s helpful for me too, isn’t it
my project list as of
11pm/Wed/Sep 30, 2015
| Industry | Due date | Volume | Progress | |
| Press release | Housing | 9am, Thu | Small | Done, waiting to be review |
| Survey | Devices | pm, Thu | Medium | Done, waiting to be review |
| Exhibition material | Textile | am, Fri | Medium | Pre-research |
| Survey | Banking | EOD, Fri | Small-Med | Zero |
| Survey responses | Ad for a Mobile Device | am, Mon | Large | Glance through.. |
| Court papers | Legal | next Thu | Large | Glance through… |
still quite manageable I guess
I love the feeling knowing that
I will be all occupied until
end of the week and even further
that’s pretty much the
sense of insecurity I suffer
as a freelance
whenever I have nothing in hand
another good news
guess what
today is the last day of September
since all the projects will be
delivered in October
they contribute to my sales in Oct
make sense, right?
in other words
I have actually hit
the monthly minimum target
for October even before the month started
a new record, for sure
and I can go on to
take my two weeks off
without much concern over sales
but feel free to disturb me
my beloved clients
24/7 at your service
from any part of the world
as you can see
I got projects across different industries
that’s one of the main reasons why
I enjoy doing translation more than
everything else I have ever done
knowing a bit more
about everything
across different industries and countries
as I hop onto a new project
by the way
September, 30 is actually
the International Translation Day
I just realized that not too long ago too
45 minutes more to finish this blog
on the personal side
life has been
I would say back on the track as
I found the motivation to
blog day and night
I found the way to
fit in my most skinny jeans again
*starving…*
I found the right time to
pick up the pencil to
start sketching a birthday card
from scratch in A3 size
looking forward to October
before that…
let’s get back to work
the project list up there
deadlines!
are called deadlines
for a reason..
if you don’t hit the timeline
you are so totally dead
until then,
