25th Oct
i guess it’s best to
compile the monthly wrap-up now
instead of procrastinating on and on
and i will be away for one week
starting on 30th
for the past few months
the keyword “trough”
has been appearing over and over
the dark cloud remained to linger
during the first half of October
and seriously it got me kinda worried
not even hitting the minimum salary
when half of the month was over
and thank goodness it started to pick up
towards the second half
it’s kinda true that
bad/good things will come together
it feels good to be back on track
juggling a few deadlines at once
however in the middle of the hectic week
something unfortunate happened
lost a quotation of 500 USD
despite having offered
the best rate ever
and the next minute
the client was sending mass email
scouting for better deal
and i was in the mailing list too
that kind of insecurity
is beyond description
when the next minute
you’re being fired
despite being able to secure
other projects from that particular firm
the chance of securing large volume of
open-ended responses from the Chinese Market
is probably getting much slimmer
okay let’s move on
anyway speaking of China
got my very first payment
denoted in RMB
it’s an urgent task for a
university course mate in Shanghai
she was most probably
busy preparing for her wedding
oh dear, the pre-wedding shoot
done at Saipan was really amazing
so she got me to help out with
translating some slides
for an international school education fair
and everything from
quotation, delivery, payment
was done via WeChat
hey!
welcome to the
era of mobile payment
that’s all for now
and besides chasing deadlines
have finished 15 episodes of
75 minute series within a week
and about to finish another
series of 25 episodes
bravo!!
work + series
is seriously the best way to
get yourself out of relationshit
