it’s almost 3 in the morning
just submitted a task
a couple of minutes ago
not sure if I should take a “nap”
or move on to the next
somehow not sleepy
not sure which contributes to this more
firstly
I was drop-dead tired yesterday
having working until 2am
for the past few days
fell asleep at 8 pm yesterday
to wake up on a raining morning
a 12-hour sleep definitely do some good
secondly
the more you work
the less tired you are
and you can just keep going
as compared to my work-list on Wednesday night
Sudden Bend X Upward Trend: When September Ends: ….
yup.. some can be ticked off
hooray..
yet there are add-ons in
totally different volumes
and by the way, the task I have
labeled as Small-med volume
looked like it was a misjudgment
it took me 16 hours in total
my work list as of 3am/Sat/Oct, 03
Industry | Due date | Volume | Progress | |
Survey responses | Ad for a Mobile Device | am, Mon | Large | Glance through.. |
Court papers | Legal | next Thu | Large | Glance through… |
Exhibition material | Textile | am, Mon | Medium | from above-listed task |
Survey | Banking | soon.. | Small | from above-listed task |
Papers | NGO | Wed (thank goodness its EDT) | Large | Glance through… |
and there is slight changed
in terms of earlier deadline
for one of the major projects
as client wants it urgently
oh my…
it was initially agreed as Monday
then client was asking if I can re-estimate
I gave Sunday morning
who works on a Sunday morning?
yes I do.. always
and he was asking to push it to
Saturday afternoon
which is like pretty soon isn’t it?
no worries
an absolutely packed weekend
and it goes on.. and on…
I am looking forward to work on the
NGO papers actually pretty soon
but first..
let’s clear whatever are pending
with more urgent deadlines
happened to come across this article
before I started the post
at the middle of the night
when your mind is still working at
an incontrollable rate and
there’s nobody you can talk
that’s something to
give a pat on your shoulder
sounds creepy…. though
anyway

another new record has been achieved today
I have been working on my desk
all day long without
moving to the bed or floor
simply because the tasks require
loads of mouse until
I moved on to post
usually I move around a lot
or I work in bed the whole day
days away from the desk
finally settling comfortably at the corner
leaning on the window
laying my two feet comfortably
till then,
let’s get back to work
*starving and striving…*
