So if you live your life in a three piece suit,
In a cocktail dress, or combat boots
You pick your path and you walk your truth
And the world will come round to you.

Pop the cork, a champagne glass
Raise to the future, drink to the past
Thank the Lord for the friends he cast,
In the play he wrote for you.

:( I read my post comments from my beloved readers and everyone was saying not to go with the SOC position where I continue to work over the year...

See, initially, I thought it would be a bad bad move too since I'd have so much work to do. Nobody (myself and my family included), thought I should take the position. BUT! I did end up taking it today....and that was because my manager made it clear that my priority should be to graduate. i.e. I define when I can put forward time for work. Right there I thought that okay, my worst worries are pretty much alleviated. And I mean, if the whole point of me working over the year is really just to keep me in touch with the team, then sounds kind of good right? :)

I'm sorry I didn't take all of your advice! I know you guys always know best but I hope this way works out too!!! :)

and now....haha to er...go get my first meal of the day in.... oy. I have crappy work schedules for myself. :( Yeah, I'll need to work on this before the skool year starts!


*sigh*

working late.....again.

was just talking to a friend of mine who told me to screw work and go to bed which I really would like to do. On the other hand, I want to get my new project in the works and I can only do that when I finish this old bug. ARGH! Moreover, I don't want to not get work done right now since I have a meeting with my manager discussing working over the school year.

Which reminds me....I've asked a few ppl but i haven't posted it here yet. I've been offered the chance to continue working for IBM over the school year.

Problem...can I afford to given it's my final year and I kind of have another part time job?

Do i want to take it? Very much so....but....hrmm....I don't want to look bad when I have to give up work for a midterm or final....or worse, maybe I'll give up the midterm/final to work :(

Arrggghhh....

Lastly, kind of looking forward to skool but starting getting cold feet....not sure if I'm ready to go back yet.

Why the heck am I so fickle?! ARGH!

And now...back to the grindstone.... tootles!

(oh, and yes, I will be updating the blog with my Asian adventures and pictures soon!...I hope) :)
