2019/09/18: 敬請期待

昨天毫無預警突然踩到雷
突然被問和之間的相亲對象
怎麼不繼續聯絡了

呃 我算一下
是去年七月的事
如果有戲 可能都已經結婚了吧
很明顯是沒有戲 還拿來說事
不是增添尷尬嗎

所以就是一年後
既然都還單身
就湊和一下
再试试的概念??

我連那男的叫什麼名
長什麼樣都不記得了
已經刷過的就是不會考慮啦

這麼簡單的道理
解釋了這麼多遍 還不明白

和去年不同的事
這次吵得更兇了

一年下來
又多累積了多少飛行里數
又經歷了多少難題難堪
只有變得更好更強大

而不是老人所想得
年紀越大 市場價值則越小

我連我喜歡怎樣的人
應該長怎麼樣也說不清
或許這個人出現我就知道了
或許這個人根本不存在
為此我也做好了完全的準備

唉 孤獨的人從來沒有不快樂
讓他們不快樂的是
其他人感覺他們不快樂

2019/09/05: Another August

Somehow can’t remember

much about August

even if i didn’t procrastinate

this time round

*

probably it has been an

uneventful month

which isn’t necessarily

a bad thing

after all

*

except for..

a voided invoice

on the last day of Aug

because the client was

still unhappy with the quality

after three rounds of amendment

*

other than that

i can’t remember exactly

what took place in August

*

trying to revamp my schedule

to be an early riser again

so that i can take my time

enjoying breakfast

*

and took a quick break (nap)

around 11 am if

i am feeling really tired

let’s say

i start working at 4 or 5am

*

and also

try to substitute tea time

with early dinner by 6pm

*

what’s more

started to take workout seriously

i know it sounds ridiculous

when you can’t beat the fat

then you probably are not

working hard enough

sad but true story

*

having get used to this

healthier routine

am suddenly concerned

about my upcoming solo (lazy) trip

to Taipei next trip

may end up coming back lazy

2019/09/02: Time Flies, July

always have the tendency to procrastinate

wait i did write the post for June right

Yes, June’s Journey

*

July was a roller coaster month

but let’s cut it short because

well there’s Aug to write about

still

*

was supposed to attend

two music festivals in July

life’s good, huh

*

so i did attend the first one in Chiayi

Wake Up Festival

during first half of July

and spent the rest of the trip in

Kaohsiung working, alone

*

so everything went on at

normal pace until

a few days before the

2nd event

i secured this large volume task

which was so large that

i was sleepless for that night

*

suddenly realizing

i may not be able to make it

given the volume and

tight deadline

*

that was a Wednesday

if i am not mistaken

then for the next two days

on top of juggling this one

i  did receive other tasks

and was going at full speed

*

hey i may make it after all

given the fact that

i will still work in the hotel

after and before the event

*

it was on Friday

one day before that

i got overwhelmed by

more incoming tasks that

so.. it’s confirmed

*

no music festival for me

since i have already seen

two of the bandsthat i wanted to see

in Chiayi earlier on

so i guess it wasn’t wasted

even if i had to burn the ticket

*

i could have spent more on hotel

or taking the risk of missing deadlines

so i have got no choice

but to give up

*

but by pure luck

managed to sell the ticket

at discounted price to

the person offered to buy

in fact

knowing my situation

*

and thank goodness

i think i have made the right choice

even if i was working

day and night through the weekend

i was in serious doubt

if i could finish it on time

*

more so on Tuesday evening

due date was Thursday in fact

client suddenly asked for

earlier delivery by

Wednesday noon

with 10% extra upon nego

*

and i managed to finish

like on Wednesday morning

ahead of the new urgent deadline

*

I wouldn’t have got it done

if i did attend the  two-day event

not forgetting time spent on travelling

*

so…

not sure if it was a coincidence

or a pattern or trend

*

two years in a row

July topped the sales chart

with large volume task

which came in

in conjunction with live show

*

last year

about the same time

Caodong live in Tokyo

almost missed a task

because signal was poor

at the underground venue

but managed to secure it

and went full force

working on plane

*

i guess i have to be

real careful when it comes to

planning next year

but who knows

i got pre-sale ticket

back in February

and happily counting down

until the day before the event

*

so..

good grief

who knows

*
