» I've been in a foul mood since yesterday. I really don't know the reason, but I am irritated with everything and everyone right now. Worst thing is I'm at the office and there's an end-user test going on one of my applications which will bring so many questions and it'll drive me even more insane.

» I've bought the plane tickets for our vacation next month and guess what, mom immediately asked me if we can change the date on her return ticket. NO MOM, WE CAN'T, THEY WERE THE CHEAPEST DEAL TICKETS I COULD FIND AND YOU CAN'T CHANGE IT. Every.single.time I do something regarding planning or buying for something we'll do together, she does this. She always has some other plans that will complicate the already made plan which stresses me out more that I can handle.

» My right arm is aching. I know it's stress related so I'm trying to relax, but since I don't know what's stressing me out this much, I fail. I am hopelessly trying to find a comfortable position to sit, but nothing works. Plus I woke up with a headache today so I'm hoping the painkiller I took a few minutes ago will solve both of my physical problems.

» Watched Cougar Town season finale last night and it was AMAZING. ( Couple of spoilery stuff... )

» The woman in the next office is talking too loudly. I am this close to barging in there and choking her.

» Happy Endings is awesome! Mostly Eliza Coupe is awesome than any other. The only thing that left me sad about the end of Scrubs was her absence on my screen, but now I can be happy again.

» Mom asked me if I wanted to extend my vacation to 2 weeks and I said no, because I seriously cannot handle a 2 week long family vacation, but I told her I can't take 2 consecutive weeks off from work. I love them all, but we're not that compatible when we are kept in a strange place too long. No, no, no and no.

» I wish people would just let me be today, but then I get sad because I get too lonely. I can never win. I want to punch something, but instead, I will use these gifs to express my current emotional status.

It's been exactly 10 days since I last posted something here. When did I become so lazy? I'm quite active on Twitter and Tumblr, but LJ has been pretty slow, I know.

Last week--last 2 weeks to be honest-- have been the most tiring weeks of my life. Work was killing me (it still does, but I kind of got used to it) and then my cousin got married last Sunday and since Wednesday, our house was full of guests. At the end of all this: mom got sick, I was extremely tired and couldn't go to work on Monday, everyone was extremely cranky, but now we're all okay. Mom's on vacation in Switzerland (so random, I know) and I'm back at work.

Also, I caught the bouquet at the wedding! Hooray! I'm getting married next :P As soon as I find someone to marry.

There are so many weddings and engagements around me, it feels overwhelming. It's best to ignore it all.

Since I was pretty much occupied at all times this last 2 weeks, I wasn't very productive. I couldn't write/read. I'm planning on redeeming my lack of creativity this week, we'll see. I'm re-reading Switching Time for research purposes. I also watched Sybil, recommend it to everyone. Loved it.

I have absolutely nothing interesting to add to this post. Except maybe I should tell you how excited I am that I'll watch Glee's Britney episode tonight! Was it as epic as everyone expected? Just say yes or no, I don't know who'll sing what, I didn't "song-spoil" myself as usual :))

Yup, that's all folks. I'm so sleepy right now, it's crazy. And I'm supposed to work? Oh yeah. Sure.

It's been really long since I've made a decent update, so I will categorize the stuff on my mind and let you all know how my life is going. I know you're interested (even though it's not going to be as exciting as I'm hoping it would be).

Let's go;

REAL LIFE:

My life lately consists of only 2 things: ( Heat and work. )

WRITING:

I've written 2 chapters worth of stuff 2 weeks ago >=/
I want to write more. I want to finish my current story and move on to the next one until I have nothing waiting in the queue of my mind. It's almost impossible, but I have hope. One day I'm going to look at my writing folder and see only one word document that is incomplete. ONE DAY IT'LL HAPPEN GUYS, I KNOW IT!

FAMILY:

My family literally abandoned me this weekend.( I hate staying alone in the house. )

TV:

Aside from my regular summer shows (True Blood, Drop Dead Diva and WEEDS!!) I tried watching Covert Affairs. It didn't click with me. I really like both leading actors, but it feels so artificial to me, so I gave up after 4 and a half episodes. I think I'm still stuck at the Alias phase.

READING:

I'm still reading Harry Potter. Yeah, I know. BUT THOSE BOOKS ARE HUGE! I've recently finished The Goblet of Fire and I still couldn't pass the first few chapters of The Order of the Phoenix. It's going to take me a lot longer to go through that one big ass novel. I feel like sitting down and reading a book is a waste of time compared to writing one, but since I CAN'T DO THAT EITHER it makes me sad. And mad. I'm smad.

FRIENDS:

I don't want to go out because it's too hot. Therefore I don't call anyone and nobody calls me either.

OTHER STUFF:

I'm constantly in a "meh" mood. I want to feel better. As soon as the weather gets better--AND BY "BETTER" I MEAN "COLDER"--I'll be fine, but that particular period of time seems so far away at this point. I'm annoyed.

Yup, this is it. My mind feels a lot organized at the moment, thanks for listening.

Yup, it's a brand new year and nothing's changed whatsoever :P

I directly went to bed after the countdown and opening a couple of presents so I'm very well rested. We'll have guests today, first guests of the year. My cousin and her husband with their new born baby Sude came from London last Friday, they'll be having lunch here at our house today, along with my other cousin and his wife. I only care about the baby, LOL.

Of course, whenever we invite guests to our house mom goes crazy with cleaning and cooking so the first thing I was assigned to do this morning was dusting (which I hate.) I keep sneezing because of dust and smell of cleaning spray but it's okay, as long as mom doesn't start yelling, phew!

Hopefully guests will leave before 8 pm so I can just sit down and write and have a nice night. Tomorrow I'll be meeting with a friend for lunch, she came from NY for the new year. Can't wait to get some gossip, hehe >:)

Okay, now you know what I'll be doing for the next two days so your life is complete. No need to thank me, just doing my friendly duties.

It smells like cabbage, me likes.

Eta: I've updated my TV schedule with returning dates of the shows for winter and I now have a 2010 scrapbook! Yay! :)
